Your very kind, I definitely appreciate your words or “no words” . Sometimes it’s all about playing around with the basic stitches and beads… Enjoy the pattern and have a beautiful day.
I can’t thank you enough for your kind comment! I wish there was more time for beading. After I spend the time coming up with a new pattern I enjoy it’s the best to see other beaders enjoy it too. I hope you have a beautiful weekend.
Thank you for the fantastic compliments. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your kindness with me. Today is MOTHERS DAY in the USA, so HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to you and your family.
This is such a beautiful bracelet and different from what I have seen on YT recently. I love it and you are so clever at giving us lovely choices! Thank you for your time and effort. Its a definite make for me ❤
Thank you for everything your saying. I’m happy to hear it’s on your to make list. Enjoy picking out your color(s) and I hope you have a beautiful day.
Thank you, this bracelet is pretty easy and I’m glad you love it. I’m flattered by your voice compliments. Enjoy your beading projects and have a beautiful week.💖
That’s great to hear, I love looking at PINTREST too and am happy to hear from someone who found one of my videos from there. I always post on my PINTREST account when I make new videos. Enjoy making the bracelet and picking out your colors. NEW video tomorrow.. I hope you have a beautiful weekend.
Greetings, I’m sure you’ll love it. The bracelet wears like a cuff and has so many crystals that it really ✨ sparkles. I love this color way too and it seems to go with everything I’ve been wearing lately. Thanks for the compliments and have a beautiful day.
Thank you so much for this comment. I really hope you give beading a try. My personal advice is - try making what you really love no matter how hard it appears to be or you imagine it is. Just take your time and enjoy the process. A little practice goes a long way and using a beading thread and beading needle are key. I’m excited for you, reach out if you have any questions. Your beading friend Sherry
Thank you Sherry for your beautiful pattern! I’ve been looking for my first project to start my beading adventure and this is it! Just gorgeous🩵. Your tutorial is probably the best I’ve ever seen on Utube, and believe me, I watch a lot of them! Can’t wait to see what else you design.
Oh my gosh , your definitely so sweet! I believe in calling a tutorial a tutorial if you know what I mean and it sounds like you do - so thank you so much. I hope you enjoy making it and picking out your color(s). As always I hope you have a beautiful day.
I’m so happy to hear you love it, or think it’s gorgeous anyhow. Hope your doing good 😊 and have been enjoying your beading projects. Get ready for another bicone bracelet Tutorial soon, your beading friend Sherry
Thank you, Beading can be such a fun and versatile hobby I’m always excited to hear that people are getting into it. Definitely appreciate you taking the time to let me know you love my tutorial. Enjoy the pattern Your beading friend Sherry
Hi, I was thinking about you today - wondering what you were beading this weekend. I love it that this pattern can use what you have and still turn out great. Thanks for sharing the Rondell information.
This was super easy to make! I used to do alot of beading but put it all away when I had my baby. Now that I found a safe spot for everything I'm starting up again.
I know easy, right. I’m happy you’re enjoying some of my tutorials. That’s such a fun reminder thinking about the baby proofing days ( my son is a teen now) but I just got a new puppy last Sunday and had some rearranging to do.
Spent the last few hours making this. One thing I want to bring up, is that the side bicones didn’t fit. I used everything just like was instructed. However putting a 15-0 between the bicones on the sides seems to fix the issue. However there’s still an issue with the tension one way or another. 4mm is too small, 6mm crystal is too big, and a 15-0 on each side of 4mm on the sides was the best alternative. Thank you for this design. Took longer than I wanted
I’m perplexed. I used Preciosa crystals 4mm bicone Miyuki 8/o seed beads Preciosa 11/o seed beads ( they are more like a Miyuki then a TOHO ) I wish I knew what was causing the tension issue on the side bicones for your bracelet. I’m glad to hear that you were able to make it work with the addition of size 15/o seed beads. Thanks for sharing your experience with me and I hope you have a beautiful week.
I love that this bracelet is a little wider than most beaded bracelets I've seen. I'm thinking of substituting a 4mm pearl or fire polished bead for the bicones. It won't be sparkly but may still be pretty.
I think that making one with pearls would be beautiful and elegant. Fire polish too! Since you add the outer most 4mm beads last you can even mix and match I bet. Enjoy and have a beautiful day.
This is stunning! 😍💎 I subbed recently and am going thru your channel and loving your creations! I wonder if you could make this a 3d version by turning into CRAW! Oh the possibilities! 😍 thanks for sharing! 💕
Thank you, I’m happy you’re finding some patterns you love and I wish you were here… I’m working on something 3D for the not to distant future. Right now I have this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bsgYSIAZLFs.html It is the KISSING CRYSTALS bracelet and has 3D components to it. So many possibilities so little time for sure. Thank for becoming a subscriber and as always I hope you have a beautiful day.
¡De nada! Agradezco tu amable y exquisito comentario. Tendré un nuevo tutorial de pulsera el domingo... espero que a ti también te guste. Espero que tengas un hermoso día, tu amiga Sherry.
Your bracelet is really beautiful. Love the colors and the overall design. What you're calling a Pondo stitch is what I always thought was a RAW, IE modified RAW. Is there a difference in the 2 stitches, or are there just 2 names for the same stitch? Either way, I look forward making this design. I'm hoping it will work equally well wth the round crystals or other rounds. I can't wear bicones. The edges of bicones are too sharp for my skin and they irritate my wrist or around my neck to no end. Thanks so much for sharing your time and talent.
Hello, Thinking back I’m pretty sure the first off loom bead stitch I tried was peyote, fast forward to about two years ago when EurekaCrystalBeads made a video entitled “Learn how to do the Pondo Stitch w/ Leah! This step by step beading tutorial covers all the basics!” After watching that video and making some samples I’m under the impression that it is Pondo stitch. And that modified RAW would begin with just a length of only RAW then adding to it ? This is a super good question and Im just going to suggest watching the video I mentioned if your interested and have a moment. Definitely try rounds in the pattern; I’ve not played with them yet… might have to use size 3mm round beads instead of 4mm to make it work, maybe. Most of my recent ring patterns (including the one coming out tomorrow) have a layer of seed beads between the bicones and skin for that reason … I understand. Hopefully all this is helpful and as always I hope you have a beautiful day.
Good morning Mary, My thoughts are.. bicones for the center and if you wanted … try the rounds on the edge. With that being said if you have the time to experiment with just one section of all rounds it might look just as nice I just have didn’t try it myself. 💖
Hi Sherry. Could you or anyone tell me how many 4mm bicone beads I need for the bracelet? I bought a beautiful strand from Hobby Lobby, but sadly they only had one strand of 48 crystals. Hope you have a beautiful day! Thank you for this gorgeous beading tutorial. I can't wait to make it! ❤❤❤
Hi. I used 90 4mm bicone crystals in total. There are 6 crystals in each “section/grouping” from side to side when finished. I had a total of 15 groups x 6 = 90 TOTAL If you need to size up it would be done in increments of 6 crystals So maybe 96 or 102 depending on the finished length you need. The 90 gives you about a 6.5 inch bracelet if that helps. I wish HOBBY LOBBY would have more than one or two strands in the store at a time- it drives me crazy that they never have much inventory of what I like. As always I hope you have a beautiful day.
Grazie! Per questo video stavo usando il filo per perline WILDFIRE in verde. Ho avuto molta fortuna con questo marchio perché non si aggroviglia quando lo uso. Sembra un po' più rigido rispetto ad altri fili disponibili. Non sono sicuro di quale usi attualmente, ma spero che queste informazioni siano utili. Buona giornata. Thank you! I was using WILDFIRE beading thread in green for this video. I have had very good luck with this brand because it does not tangle when I use it. It seems a little stiffer then some other threads available. I'm not sure which one you currently use but hopefully this information is useful. Have a beautiful day.
Thank you!! Happy Mother’s Day for sure and to you too! I used 90 crystal in the video. There are 6 crystals per “row ie crystal section” and I have 15 to make about a 6.5 inch bracelet so 30 of each color. Hope that helps. Enjoy and have a beautiful day.
Kiitos paljon. Olen iloinen kuullessani, että pidät rannekorusta niin paljon. Ostan monia lukkoa/lukkoa Fire mountain -helmistä: Katsoin sen juuri ja tässä on linkki käyttämääni www.firemountaingems.com/itemdetails/h20b1211fn Arvostan todella ystävällisiä kommenttejasi ja toivon sinulle kaunista viikonloppua.
Absolutely, especially the crystal color so you can’t see it through a lighter color Crystal bead. I just used the green wild fire to make it a little easier to see in the video that Fireline would be great. Enjoy the pattern and have a beautiful day.
tal vez una rondelle de 2x3 mm o algo un poco más grande que la cuenta de semilla de tamaño 11/0. No estoy seguro de qué opciones tienes. Espero que esto ayude a algunos.
qué bueno que puedes usar el teléfono de tus nietas. Espero que tengas una buena visita y te diviertas haciendo cuentas. Que tengas un hermoso día también.
