Hi fellow grains! My name is Jackie and I love crafting geeky diys. I mainly do polymer clay tutorials, but I also do resin crafting, felt diys, and custom diy soap on my channel, but I love experimenting and having fun! Let's go on this diy crafting journey together ^_^ Remember to hashtag Nerdecrafter on Instagram if you make anything geeky. Also, if you share my videos, you automatically get love and sparkles (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

I think the “strings” for the beads are more geared toward little kids. I think one end is purposefully made that way so they don’t have to worry about picking it up accidentally and having all the needs slide off the other end. I am a Kindergarten teacher and I always put a giant knot in one end of the string for my students for this very reason!! 😊

as a parent i underatand your frustration with the necklaces. however from my kids eyes. the big side of the necklace is supposed to be used as a stopper. you slide all the beads on from the one side. its so little hands can hold one end and they dont all side off the other side. to other parents. the necklaces they use are stretchy, easy for kids to put on, and will snap quicker than a string in the matter of choking hazards. easy for little hands. and they fit almost all pony beads so if you kiddo likes making themselves necklaces like mine do. its easy to buy a cheap pack from your nearest store to help them customize it.
to jackie. absolutely no hate. i appreciate your satiness when it comes to these products and i often find my self with the same conflusion you came to😂 just wanted to give a lil parental hands on from a mom who buys packs of the necklace string things for her kiddos

Minnie’s secret is that she doesn’t even use the nail polish. She’s always got those gloves on

When stringing the beads you would string them through the smaller side of the necklace. Put on half, charm and then the other half. Just lay out your beads before hand to plan your design. Also I would think all the extra space in the middle of the container is probable storage for finished necklaces and such.

Ok ... here's the deal with the princess necklace kit. You would actually want to line up all your beads first in the order you want .... once you're happy with the line-up, you slide them all onto the smaller end. Bing-bang-boom

This must be completely out of the blue and not relevant but I really wanna take a moment to appreciate Jackie. I've been a grain for a super long time and the way she has evolved her channel and content, how she's super unproblematic, dorkily adorable and one of the very few genuine youtubers out here who are who they are and care about their audience just..it's truly commendable. She's so transparent, she doesn't have to indulge in clickbait-y stuff or other mind numbing things many other creators do. I'm super proud to be a part of the Salt Shaker Fam. You go Jackie 💜

For the necklaces:
Typically, you would lay out the string, match up the length with the beads and charm to determine their location, and then just put them all on in order from the one side. It's actually brilliant that you can't easily get beads over the other side. (Since if you drop one side, the beads will not fly off) As for the charms, I can easily see paying $2-$3 a charm making the princess charms around $10-$15 of the kit. So while I wouldn't pay $20 for it, I could see $10-$15. Love you Jackie!

Appreciate The Fact That She NEVER Clickbaits

I used to have a crush on Ariel when I was a kid 😅

[Juynx]

My favorite disney movie is Mulan or The little mermaid.

“Got creative and applied it somewhere else”.... Jackie, my mind wasn’t in the gutter. I pictured it all over the walls or faces. Kids are more creative than adults in that regard.

[rebeccawilson]

For the necklace set, as a kid I would’ve been thrilled to get the clear box 🤷🏻‍♀️

[xhaleyx]

my favorite Disney movie is probably Snow White, but I love all of the princesses :D

[peachygirl]

Just an idea: you plan out your design of the necklace before you put it on the sting, like a pandora bracelet. You don't put one on each side you put them all on the same side 😅
