I watched the video last night, and made the bracelet today. I didn't have the disco beads, but used a 6mm glass bead instead and it turned out quite well. You are absolutely correct that the bracelet grows, shrinks, grows, shrinks a couple of times. The heads up on removing the 3-4 units is spot on accurate! Thank you for a great video!

@marissavallejo2987 5 лет назад

I hope others read your comment! i made the bracelet a bunch of times, to see if i could get around that step of having to remove beads but it just wouldn't work lol! i knew i was gonna get a little bit of slack for that but that's ok..i'm glad you you liked the video, thank you very much!

@jeanneschmidt491 5 лет назад

Marissa, you have given us another solid, beautiful piece of jewelry and I want to thank you! Your designs are easy to make and I love the fact that they have substance (not floppy) and yet very detailed and beautiful. Keep them coming! I would like to see different sizes and shapes of beaded beads in the future. Thank you!

@kotadawndragon 5 лет назад

This is an absolutely beautiful bracelet. I will certainly be making one myself. However, the tutorial was a bit confusing for me and I've been beading for a while. A beginner will almost certainly be lost, especially on the sizing bit.

This is a beautiful bracelet and I love your colors. Thanks for sharing with us Marissa!

@yolandavillegas4353 5 лет назад

The bangles are beautiful!! Thank you..I don't want this to come across like criticism because I really appreciate learning here.. just want to say the directions were somewhat unclear at times and that she should have made a little larger piece to explain a little better the process that might be very simple for some but not so for a beginner!

It's a lovely bracelet, but using lighter colors would help. So would making a bracelet- sized example. I found the directions to be confusing too. I used more 15/0 in the crossover section. A set of 3 seed beads, go through picot center, another set of 3 seed beads, and then the crossover bead. So six on each side. This covered the thread much better.

The bead colours that are used in the tutorial are very dark and make it difficult to see what's going on. I suggest a tutorial using contrasting colours.

@leahdavis-hemphill3959 3 года назад

Extremely contrasting colors, very hard to follow. Frustrated 😭

@bettylavigne3 3 года назад

Have a question? Why do you add the extra 3 units in the beginning if you are going to remove them near the end? Seems very confusing to me and I have been beading for several years. Maybe some one should redo this video so it is easier to understand!!!!! Because the bracelet is beautiful.... Thanks for listening... Betty

@ruthpealer3328 5 лет назад

It's kind of difficult to follow....any chance we can get printed instructions with diagrams ????

@tonyavelasquez9307 5 лет назад

Great bracelet but the instructions are a bit hard to follow you should have a practice run on ur alone time to get a better format and tutorial going. Keep practicing..We all have to start s Somewhere. Or a written pattern..

@sandy81054 5 лет назад

You can use any 6mm round beads. Or Pearl.

Yes, the options are vast

Very nice , would love yo make it , wgat dose is the disco bead ? I have no disco bead what can I use use instead and what size , will it change the number of beads used thx again

The Disco beads are a multi-faceted large round crystals. You can find them here www.potomacbeads.com/shop/category/potomac-crystal-disco-ball-96-facets-6mm-8mm

@jackiemuller3330 3 года назад

Thanks for this beautiful design! I can't wait to try it out but I'm wondering if you're using the 6 or 8mm Metalic Green Disco Balls? So far I've only done one bangle design, not sure why I've avoided them till now, but I really love the criss cross look. Thanks again!

@leahdavis-hemphill3959 3 года назад

The bracelet is gorgeous, the instructions are a little confusing. I need to make it larger than necessary than take bead units off? I'm just confused. 🤦🏽‍♀️ Is there any way that you guys can remake this?

@lynnseresin8305 3 года назад

Can you specify the weight of Wildfire beading thread used? I made a bracelet using Fireline and it came out wobbly, not stiff like a bangle. Just want to make sure I use the correct weight of Wildfire, which I believe is usually stiffer than Fireline, when I remake the bracelet.

@Potomacbeadco 3 года назад

Wildfire comes in two thicknesses, 0.008" and the thinner 0.006". Beading thread is measured by thickness because you want to be able to get it through the holes in your beads, often several times. A thinner Needle size can help as well, so start with a size 10 and if you need to, you can swap it for a size 11 or 12 if you're working with tiny holes. The only reason Fireline has the pounds on its label is because fish vary in size and the poundage indicates the weight of the fish you're targeting, so a 6lb line would be suitable for catching fish up to 6 pounds. Since your beads will never weigh 6 pounds, we only look at the thickness.

@lynnseresin8305 3 года назад

@loribrigley1533 5 лет назад

Very nice bangle, but the explanation of steps is difficult to follow. I watched it through a full time before attempting.

@bpskier123 3 года назад

Remove 3 or 4 of the disco beads? That will shorten the bracelet by more than an inch! Maybe remove 1 set, but not 3 or 4!

@zinaroyster7040 5 лет назад

What size do 29 disco balls give you?

@jeannebeverly1244 5 лет назад

I don't understand why you said to remove 3 or 4 disco bead groupings. That would make the bracelet too small.

@marissavallejo2987 5 лет назад

after you remove the beads, the next step of adding the 15/0s to make picos,, that will stretch out the bracelet again and make it bigger..if you don't remove the 3 to 4 bead groupings your bracelet will be too big..i tried several times making the bracelet without having to do that and i just couldnt' get it to work lol..
