Left over wire + a few beads + crimps & knot covers = a beautiful pair of earrings! Thanks for reminding us that we can make do with left over items. I'll no longer be tossing those few inches of wire I thought I couldn't use. Thanks!
Great idea to use the knot covers! I've been making a different version of these, but yours look neater. One tip I have is to make sure that you don't cross the ends of your wires when you're adding the crimp tubes. That will make the resulting loops look nicer and more even. Thanks for this great video!
Great beginner project I'll be sharing with my niece, who I am teaching...well trying to teach! LOL I'm basically just passing on the knowledge you and other bead artists so generously share here on RU-vid and elsewhere. I love your methods, creativity and imagination. So much so that I am not only a new subscriber, (don't ask me why I didn't subscribe sooner instead of bookmarking your channel), but am also a new Patreon "subscriber" as well. I look forward to what you dream up next! All the best! Bo
Thank you SOOOO much! I will be sending you an email soon with your tracking number to your surprise bead bag I will be sending in the next 1-2 days! Very glad to have you as a viewer, subscriber, and patron!!! :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've been trying to figure out what to do with all my dagger beads and this tutorial has inspired me to try something new with them!
You're very welcome, Kristina! I am so happy that this could help you come up with something new for your daggers. This will show them off beautifully, I think! :)
Goodmorning Gina, these are great... Quick gifts and colors are great, #blossommode, especially waiting around for spring... Have a Blessed day stay creative and Blessed...
Hi Gina. They are really cute. I never used tiger tail. Now i have an idea. Thank you for sharing. When i asked you about the pip beads i was asking when you did your crescent necklace tutorial. Have a great day. The tiger tail really has a lot of colors.
Hi Fran! Glad it could give you a new idea for tiger tail! I'm sorry if I had missed your question about pip beads, you may need to ask me again. :) Hope you have a great day too! 💜
Do wire guardians come in different QUALITIES? I'm watching this on my computer (I usually watch on my phone) and it looks like the quality of your wire guardians is much better than what I have. Mine are very rough and scratchy to wear. (The edges are all quite sharp.) If so, where do you buy yours?
Hi Kristina, I purchase mine from Amazon, Beebeecraft, and Eureka Crystal beads and none of mine have come rough or scratchy. You may have gotten a bad batch, or may want to purchase from a different supplier. Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks, I want to start simple also. BTW: sort of off topic, did you cut the stock that you have the earrings displayed on out of cardstock on an electronic cutting machine?. It makes them look extra special and more presentable. Thanks for the tutorial. Much kindness, stay safe.
Hi there! I actually purchased them like that off of Amazon, then punched the holes. You can find links in the desc. section of this video for more: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u8iBYf6qryE.html Thanks so much for watching!
Hi Anastasia! Here are some: amzn.to/2SqhqVN You can also find them at various craft stores and search beebeecraft for clip-on findings. Thanks for watching!
Hi Gina. I've a question!!! I've been after this kind of bead tip/cover for ages - the one with the loop on both ends. When I've followed the link though, the ones in the picture only show a single loop. 🤔. Confused!!! xx
Hi Jan!! That's a good catch! I ordered the ones that I have linked here, but for some reason they arrived with the loop on both sides instead of just the one side. I don't know if you want to risk trying to order those, or not. I have also seen some on Amazon: amzn.to/2XvDBxk Those are in a gold tone. They have some other finishes if you do some searching. Hope that helps! 💜
Hi Christina! It does come in different sizes - I am using the 0.45mm diameter. It really just depends on the beads you decide to use and the sizes of their holes. The beads I used didn't have extra large holes, or anything. Pretty standard. Thanks fo watching!
Hi, I’ve been trying to message you through messenger but it keeps bouncing back saying you’re off line. I wanted to send you that link I had mentioned. Let me know what to do.
Hi Sharon! I've been having some issues with messenger, so if you wouldn't mind e-mailing me at orchidopaljewelry@gmail.com, that would be awesome! Thank you! 💜
