Perfectly said sis! Point blank period!

[@quelquun2018]

Making waist beads became a new hobby for me!

[@bosspluslife9901]

I enjoyed every word and agree 100000%. Thank you for sharing, thank you for addressing the fact that some people don't want to do the work.

Thank you for making this video and sharing your tips - you certainly didn’t have to, since I respect your craft. But it’s very informative for those like me who are researching and trying to understand why some I’ve made don’t hold up as well.

[@AshleyAmanda]

My pleasure Sis. Thanks for watching!

[@Vibeoftheyear]

Thank you for the information. We are all here to support our family and do what we love. Thanks again!!!

[@msvirtue2438]

I agree that people should try out stringing material and find what works for them. For myself, i love nylon string. I don't particularly care for the wire. I feel the nylon has a better drape. People really should do the work for themselves. You are a blessing for sharing anyway. Thank You for this videos and the videos that. you have been putting out.

[@SwynnzStyleLLC]

Excellent. You confirmed what I was thinking would be best for the stretch beads.. 💚

[@selenavissavedinthecity1790]

Hallelujah!! This is great!!🥰😘🤗

[@ItsDaQueen78]

Yeesssssssss sis....can't wait for you to do a tie on video also! Thank you for sharing

[@AshleyAmanda]

My pleasure Sis. The tie-on string video is coming soon.

[@msfeliciab1]

Thank you for this information. I am currently researching to make my first one

[@1sazzygrl]

Love your content and your vibe. Thanks for the information. looking forward to your tie on video. I've been collecting quality beads hoping I choose wisely (just starting out). Information on beads would be cool too. Thanks again sis. Love your beads also.

Thank you for this!! I appreciate your honesty 😌 !!

[@AshleyAmanda]

Vee Sugamoma I appreciate that Sis. More videos for us to share as creators coming after this one💕

[@567pooh]

Yes I would like to know where do you buy your beads

[@Jen-bj3pu]

I made my first using the diy clear stretch cord. It's very stretchy but I found it very hard to tie the ends. I had to burn the ends to make it feel more secure. Currently wearing it so let's see how long it will last!

[@AshleyAmanda]

Did you add a clasp?

[@smokinfirechick12]

Do you have a video on how to put a clasp on your WB's

[@jamiemilton5475]

I’ve been trying to make waistbeads with NO spaces, but I can’t get it.

[@AshleyAmanda]

Hi! Are you saying that when you make them they have spaces? Stretch West Beads because they’re on elastic will stretch there for you will see spaces if they’re overstretched. Tie-on Waist Beads however when tied correctly will not have any spaces at all.

[@letthesondhine98]

Hi! So what is your recommended technique for the pre stretching?

[@katelynboynes7122]

Yep just followed

[@katelynboynes7122]

Thank you love

[@ladyvexon61]

Thank you for the video. It was great

I like 7mm and I’m a beginner

[@alanacharles-noel2537]

Hi. I'm having trouble putting hooks or claps on my 0.7 stretch clear sting. Any tips.

[@nataliag2851]

In the event you don’t want to use the clasp can you use a bonding glue

[@AshleyAmanda]

I Don't like the idea of glue on elastic.

[@ericamcgowan5931]

I understand that sentiment for sure and thank you for this. But yea experimenting is important because you also need to know what you are talking about and doing. Not just being a cookie cutter beader. Why you use what you use.

[@AshleyAmanda]

Absolutely.

[@AshleyAmanda]

💯

[@dominiquedemunn8643]

Have you ever used the white stretch cord? And where do you get the beads from? I have both the .08 and 1.0 white stretch cord.

[@AshleyAmanda]

I don’t use white stretch cord. My vendors list is available at www.bellabodybeads.com/thewaistbeadsentrepreneurcourse

[@MillieMonay]

Hello I am curious to know what clasp do you use? I was using the screws but it’s hard to find the particular ones I was using 😓 Thanks in advance 🧡

[@AshleyAmanda]

Try Bead Landing Barrel Clasps.

[@nikkialexander2128]

what size beads do you use for the .8mm string and what needle because i am trying and my beads fit by hand but when i try to use needle it doesnt go through.

[@AshleyAmanda]

I use a big eye needle by Beadalon , seed beads and 0/6 beads.

[@jleeo.1741]

How many layers of elastic cord should I one when making waist beads?

[@AshleyAmanda]

One

[@IfysPoint]

What needle would you use for the .8mm elastic cord?

[@AshleyAmanda]

I use a big eye needle by Beadalon.

[@jholiedisashicoleman4238]

Hey Ashley! Can I also use a 1.00 mm elastic cord? And I would like to know how much are your stretch waist beads with clasp? And if you also sell in bulk. How much are they? Thank you! Good job with your presentation.👌👌👌

[@AshleyAmanda]

Hi! You can try it to see if it works for you. I’m not really a fan of that size cord. It’s all about experimenting when you’re first starting out. I don’t sell in bulk and all of the waist beads can be found on my website bellabodybeads.com

[@shaywest4939]

When you measure your waist and you pre-stretch it, do you stretch to your measured waist?

[@AshleyAmanda]

Yes. Pre-stretch the cord first then start beading.

[@shaywest4939]

@@AshleyAmanda I’m going to send you a message on IG.

[@harijukublackbarbie182]

is .7mm goos too or only .8mm ?

[@AshleyAmanda]

.7 should be ok.

[@blackbuttafly]

Do you intentionally make the beads that long for prepping purposes ?

[@AshleyAmanda]

I make them that long (50+ inches) because when women come into my Tampa location I size the beads to them. When ordering online they are custom-made according to the size my customer orders.

[@blackbuttafly]

@@AshleyAmanda thank you ❤️

[@linlingg94]

I have a question! I make my waist beads on elastic as well but with a clasp and i always make sure to measure them a couple times after it’s finished to make sure it’s accurate and it usually is but when customers put them on it’ll end up being too big on them. Idk what I’m doing wrong

[@AshleyAmanda]

Hey there. This is an interesting situation because if you measure them correctly they should fit with no problem. Try this, measure them with the actual Beads if your customers are coming to you in person. Do not add the clasp until you measure them with the exact beads. Most of us have about three different measurements for our waist. It’s just a matter of where your clients want their beads to sit. If there are any love creases in their stomach or around the back you have to go completely in those creases to get accurate measurements. I hope this helps Sis.

[@linlingg94]

Ashley Amanda will definitely try this method! Thanks for responding and btw you’re so inspiring i love your passion for waist beads it makes me not want to give up and keep going

[@jeanettepeltier2703]

Hi Ashley, would I be able to have you make me a me some waist beads? If so would I go about doing that?

[@AshleyAmanda]

Yes. You can visit my website at bellabodybeads.com

[@rosewilson4179]

Hello, do you still have your crazy urban vegan channel? Of if it changed please let me know where to find it. Thanks

[@AshleyAmanda]

Not anymore Sis❤️

[@darlalukes7988]

How long do you make the cord???

[@learaye6517]

If you didn’t want to give us the real then you could’ve kept the video fr telling us you get it from wholesale and they reached out to you, I’snt giving us what you use

[@squabman7929]

What kind of string do you use?

Your beads are beautiful and unique. I plan to order more soon Yah Yah is on my wish list. Ironically your video just popped up as I was viewing KZbin I subscribed so fast. 🤗
