Excellent tutorial! ❤️❤️ I’m teaching my granddaughter how to bead. She brought home one of my bead spinners and stash of seed beads today. She was so excited!

[@pamwillingham3344]

how do you keep the needle from turning around and loosing beads?

[@capitalcitybeads]

Practice! You have to play with it to find the right angle and speed. It will only string a couple inches at a time.

[@lorettamitch-lynn9389]

This was a great demonstration along with actually making something. The extra perks as far as I am concerned is how you finished the work and explained the process. Thank you.

[@capitalcitybeads]

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed my tutorial!

[@sephineminien3230]

Best tutorial, straight to the point, no mindless chatter. Thank you.

[@capitalcitybeads]

Haha! That drives me crazy! I couldn't do it. Im so glad you like it! I have some new tutorials coming soon!

[@chelseawynne6844]

So would you recommend the extra fine soft flex for 11/0 seed beads?! Great tutorial by the way! Just subscribed ❤️

[@capitalcitybeads]

The only size 11/0 seed beads that work with soft flex are Miyuki Delicas. Fine soft flex is good for Delicas. I don't think extra fine would fit in any other brand 11/0

[@JeremiahTwenty9eleven]

As simple as this is i need something simpler

[@capitalcitybeads]

It takes a little practice but once you get the hang of it it's super fun and easy.

[@rainbowloomemery9298]

[@SusanaHernandez-bv7pc]

[@amandabaldwin4399]

Thank you for jumping right in to the instructions. Great tutorial.

[@capitalcitybeads]

Thank you! You are so welcome!! Too much talking makes me nervous haha 😂 gotta get right to it!

[@ILOVEMYSLEF345]

Thanks so much for taking the time to show how to get everything thoroughly crimped in great detail. I’m a total beginner at beading so it’s very appreciated! Liked(loved) and subscribed!

[@capitalcitybeads]

Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed it!

[@41kaatje]

Why is the music so loud?! I hardly can hear you

[@capitalcitybeads]

I thought the voice over was way too loud and the music too soft. I guess everyone is different. This is one of the first videos I ever made. I no longer add pretty, fun music to the background. I just leave the awkward silence so no worries there. Thanks for your super nice comment 👍

[@meance68]

This was excellent. Thank you!

[@capitalcitybeads]

You're so welcome!

[@robynjohnson5750]

Thank you! I enjoyed watching your tutorial and I learned quite a bit. Your bead colors are lovely!!

[@victoriaholloway-g1g]

Dumb question. But when you’re done loading the beads are you cutting the wire off of it? So if you cut the wire you’ll have two pieces of wire?

[@capitalcitybeads]

You don't have to cut the wire just remove the needle. It's one piece. Only trim the wire after you've crimped the closure

[@victoriaholloway-g1g]

I guess where I’m confused is you said the wire will go through the beads doubled. But when you’re attaching the clasps it just look like one piece of wire. I think I’m making this harder than it needs to be

[@capitalcitybeads]

The wire is only double at the needle. You put the wire in the needle and it folds over so you can use the needle to thread on the beads. When you take the needle off the wire is just straight. Your wire or cord has to fit through the beads doubled up so you can use the needle, if it doesn't fit doubled up you have to change your cord or beads,

[@rainbowcrafts1582]

this helped thank you!

[@capitalcitybeads]

You're welcome!

[@babesnbracelets6435]

I put mines on stretch cord makes putting it on and taking it off easier

[@capitalcitybeads]

Nice! Stretch works too! I love using stainless steal wire for durability and longevity.

[@Dukes-g2c]

The worst thing to buy

[@capitalcitybeads]

Bead spinners are a very popular tool for designers who need to string a lot of the same thing. They are super helpful and speed up the process when used properly.

[@dawn8542]

If you can't do it you didn't try enough but that's you. Don't discourage those of us who are willing to use patience.

[@ElfinWitch713]

My needle does not open like that

[@Notinuse68.]
