Thank you very much for making these videos available to the public and free of charge. It's a beautiful skill and art to know. You are truly a blessing to many!

@sarahbenelli4757 Год назад

Great instructions! I was unsure how to make a bracelet longer than that space, thank you for clarifying. 😃

@beadaholique 12 лет назад

You can use many different materials to back your bead weaving. Some popular choices are ultra suede or leather, or a nice sturdy fabric.

What string and what SIZE?

@beadaholique 12 лет назад

I have seen this done a couple of times, but have never tried it myself. It would take some experimentation to figure out. I will add it to our request list.

@beadaholique 12 лет назад

I'm doing some research and experimenting a bit with different ways to finish loom projects. Once I've found a few good options, I'll be sure to make a video on finishing loom work.

@beadaholique 11 лет назад

We sell the metal BeadSmith loom and we now sell the Ricks Beading Loom. You can get them on Beadaholique . com's website. The links for the supplies in this video are located in the video description underneath this video.

@beadaholique 11 лет назад

This loom is generally intended for seed beads. I've never tried it with anything larger than an 8/0 seed bead, and as we don't carry pony beads, I can't try it to see if it would work. My thought is that the threads would be much too small to hold the larger beads in place properly. Thicker cord wouldn't fit into the ridges in the loom.

@beadaholique 12 лет назад

This can be tricky, and won't always work for every situation, but I did a project this way, B1044 the Hope Bracelet. You can check out the instructions on our Free Beading Projects page under bracelets to see one way of how to do it. There's a link for it in the video description underneath this video.

@beadaholique 11 лет назад

I don't have the loom that you have to look at, so I'm not sure about the holes in the dowels. It's okay if your beads are slightly larger than your warp threads, but if they're a lot larger then yes, you can try stringing every other space.

@bibifazila5099 6 лет назад

Hi very beautiful work yes we need in English thank you very much to all your hard work to do in english.

@alphanada 11 лет назад

Thank you so much for this demonstration! I want to create a project I saw on a beading supplies catalog, which wraps around the length of a stethoscope. I am guessing to do a wrap around I will have to sew the edges together, and build the flat strip by intercalating the beads on the edges, leaving opposing blank spaces. I love this stuff!! thanks again.

@stevecoster322 6 лет назад

A third option is the curved blue plastic loom which is great and so easy to set up and use especially in comparison to these. I've tried them and...

@miscellaneouscell 5 лет назад

Is the blue plastic loom sturdy? I'm worried that the blue plastic will snap when bending it to stick the wire through it.

@beadaholique 12 лет назад

Bead loom projects usually need a backing. There are too many threads on the ends to neatly weave them into the bead work. However, you could try to experiment and see if you can find a different way to finish it off. In my experience, these pieces look best with a backing.

@jessicahughes3118 5 лет назад

Beadaholique you definitely don’t need a backing and you can weave in the ends of smaller bracelets with no problem.

@shoppersplace Год назад

We recommend reading our bead looming for beginners guide on our website. Here is a direct link: beadaholique.com/blogs/techniques-guides/bead-looming-101-beading-and-jewelry-making-on-a-bead-loom Thanks for watching!

@beadaholique 11 лет назад

It is possible to weave the warp threads into the beads when you use a larger seed bead, so theoretically, if you got the pony beads to work, you could weave the ends in, as long as the beads could accommodate all the cord strands.

@TheKendra665 12 лет назад

Could you make a video on how to put a backing on a project. Thank-you.

@Bubbless555 8 лет назад

@beadaholique Год назад

Hello! Thank you for notifying us of the broken links, they have been updated. The Nymo thread is size D.

@beadaholique 11 лет назад

For a piece that long, you'll need to roll your warp threads onto one side of the loom as I showed in the beginning of the video. The biggest challenge will be keeping them tangle free while you get them into place. We do not currently have a video showing how to add fringe to loomwork. The closest video we currently have is the How to Make Brick Stitch and Fringe Beaded Earrings. You could give that a watch, the general idea for the fringe portion would be similar.

What do you use as a backing for your bead weaving?

@vidaholmes Год назад

Could you use black thread next time. It's hard to see white thread. Thank you

@beadaholique Год назад

Great suggestion! If it's a straight demo, we try to make sure to use contrasting thread. If we are working on a finished jewelry design, that is when we usually choose the thread that we would want in the actual design but we can try to make sure to use a contrasting beading mat or something that will help show the thread better.

Is it best to use Nymo thread or can you also use say 3lb fireline? I have to be honest not keen on Nymo thread it has a tendency to stretch over time.. I'm thinking of adding a bead loom to my jewellery making, so any feed back on this would be really grateful received, thank you Linda

@janicewhitlock3766 4 года назад

Hi, great tutorial. Don't know if you are still replying to comments on this one. But, I'd like to clarify, you said for a larger project to add 2 feet to it. So, if my project is 1 foot long, should I make each strand 3 feet? Why that much?

@beadaholique 4 года назад

Thanks for watching. To clarify, we say that you should add 2 feet in addition to the length of the loom.This is simply so you don't run out of cord while working on a project that is longer than the loom itself. Thanks for watching.

@kalenecazaubon-sample1654 3 года назад

For 3bead patterns how much thread would I need I only have 15/0 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads

@beadaholique 3 года назад

It's a little difficult to say exactly. From end to end each warp thread is going to be around 11 inches, so for 3 warp threads that'll be around 33 inches. How much thread you'll need for the weft threads will vary depending on how many inches you bead. When we sell loom bracelet kits we usually include a 64 yard bobbin of nymo thread like this, and it's enough to make several bracelets in a wide variety of styles beadaholique.com/products/nymo-nylon-beading-thread-size-d-for-delica-beads-white-64yd-58-meters

Why do i have to back the piece with the metal beading loom?

@beadaholique 9 лет назад

max17937 The reason you should back it is because you have all of your warp threads that will be sticking out of each end. The ends will be very bulky if you try to weave in all of the threads. So we recommend you back it. If you don't want a backing I recommend Rick's Beading Loom and we have a full video telling you all about this type of loom and why it is different. For this loom, use 11/0 Miyuki delicas and then you can use the slide end clasp to finish you bracelet. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Use-The-Ricks-Beading-Loom.aspx?RU-vid& www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Use-Slide-End-Tubes-For-Miyuki-Delica-Bead-Weaving.aspx?RU-vid&

If the project fails straight out of the box the machine goes to the yard sale or landfill. Is that what you want?

after cutting the threads at the end of the project, and gluing them on the back of the work, how do you prevent that from looking bulky or lumpy? Can you just put glue on the thread ends, let it dry, then cut threads? Put a clasp on?

@wendykinley4779 8 лет назад

You actually can finish the weft threads. If you do the "easy method" and your weft threads are one long string, you can pull them through the finished project and you only have to weave the far right and far left threads back into your project. It also prevents you from wasting so much of your thread or Fireline as you can just wrap it back onto the spool. This will allow you to add a clasp to make a bracelet. You do have to use good thread though, Nymo tends to "shred" for lack of a better word. I have found that the nymo and regular cotton threads tend to tangle with the warp threads as you go which doesnt allow you to pull the weft threads down. I have found that either Fireline or 68% Ployester 32% Cotton thread works best depending on how stiff you want your finished project.
