I have been searching high and low for instructions on attaching chain to seed beaded sections. This came very close and was so helpful! My creative side is running away from my skill side. Going to check out your other videos. Many thanks

[joelazidragon]

I dunno if you care but i found many youtube people actually apricate detailed comments....so i thought id share a little back story....I own and run a crystal store i make custom pendants i like to polish by hand and wire wrap them. I recently got into making high quality custom beaded necklaces for my customers its be a trial and error process every time i learn something new im reminded that it may sound simple but it rather deep and technical. Seeing my customers go crazy for my artisic creations is pretty love this video it has given me so many ideas on different things i can try it was extremely clear i just know with what i learned from just this one vid the my creations are going be improved thanks for sharing you methods

[quiet-xh]

So helpful!! Thank you so much. I’ve struggled with connecting and this explains things so well!!

[santab]

I will be trying this today for the first time 😆😆I’ll keep you posted. Thank you 🫶🏼

[katzarm]

Beautiful necklace and informative video lesson. As a newbie, I found your video lesson easy to watch and understand the steps utilized to complete this beautiful necklace. Thank you for posting this video.

[sayuriblake]

I've been waiting on this for so long

[amber]

So pretty! Thank you for sharing and showing us how to make this beautiful necklace.

[genetmelesse]

Beautiful lesson, thank you for your nice and slow explanation 👍🏽

[leorabyrd]

i squeeze the wire saver ends together near the crimp... gives it a little different look (subtle) very pretty necklace

[zielito]

I love it!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge🙏❤️

[yelenasvetlitskaya]

So nice, thanks! Do you ever use any extra security or glue for the jump rings?

[mamaslovesmakeup]

What would we use in place of the strand reducer if we’re only doing 1 single necklace? Just a lobster clasp and jump rings?

[victoriaoneill]

So pretty! Could you please say what kind of wire cutter you use?

[bluestarlight]

This is gorgeous. I love this design.
Question on the wire protectors: Do you need to pinch the wire protector at all? I usually squeeze mine so the ends are touching. I believe I read that in some instructions I got with them, so I was a bit surprised that you didn't pinch/squeeze the wire protectors closed at all. Or is that a stylistic choice with this design?
Again this necklace is absolutely gorgeous and I was so excited to see this video in my notifications, this is exactly one of the instructional videos I have been waiting for. 😁

Hi, I’m really new to jewellery making and was just wondering if there’s any way to keep a single bead or pendant in the middle of your chain without sliding? I love the way you explain things compared to other channels so would love to know if you have a video on this! 💖

[esliet]

Love this design. Simply and so everyday. Do you have kits ?

[el]

great video. Can you please tell us the size of the wire and size of the crimp bead and wire protector? This is what I am still confused about. thx

[piedadezpeleta]

Will you please let me know the names of the tools? Thank you

[marylaplaca]

Beautiful! I have a terrible time with those wire guards 😳

[elizabethmoreno]

Do you dip or spray your finished product in something so it doesn't tarnish or rust?
