Can one use larger beads instead of seed-beads?

[@judithcbelevan2165]

[@tradcathpat6807]

Hi! What is the actual length of this bracelet?

[@gondavanalphen4945]

Hoe heten die plastic rondjes waar het koord opgewonden wordt

[@morabiaelenapena8894]

Soy de venezuela y no dice q cantidad de material se mesecita en cada linea

[@cr8tivesouldesign]

how do you figure out how many more beads to add for a larger bracelet?

[@beadaholique]

***** This is a tricky question to answer because everyone has a different braiding "tension" which affects the overall length. A basic guide is that for this particular bracelet which uses 8/0 seed beads, every 3 - 4 seed beads you add to each strand, will increase the overall length by about 1/2".

[@ann-ingridhelik3056]

Hello, many have asked how long is the bracelet with the amount of beads in the video . I can count the 8 ths but the pips? I bought the kit to make as a present and her wrist is 8 ''.thanks

[@hrothgarsdotter]

Do you still keep *any* kumihimo kits in stock anymore?

[@beadaholique]

Hello! We do have them periodically come back in stock and will send notifications when they do if you sign up for the out of stock notifier for the specific kit. They do tend to sell out quickly even once we replenish them. We are working on getting more back in stock.

[@Sticks45]

Where can you get that board from? The company no longer carries it?

[@beadaholique]

We carry the kumihimo boards here: beadaholique.com/products/beadalon-jewel-loom-kit-weave-necklaces-bracelets-and-more And while we discontinued this particular kit we still offer a lot of different styles of kumihimo kits, which include the board and everything else you'll need: beadaholique.com/search?type=product&q=kumihimo%20-refill&_=pf&pf_t_product_type=0-Product-Type%3AKit&pf_st_availability=true

How can I get a copy of the instructions

[@beadaholique]

However, here is a link to all our kits and if you click on any of them, there will be a statement in pink that says "PDF Instructions..." and you can click on that to get any of their instructions.

Quedo linda bendiciones ❤

[@mariemcmullan5384]

Can you tell me what the size of the bracelet is unfinished. 😌

[@fernzazzetta4651]

Hi there, my wrists are a LOT bigger then the size suggested for this bracelet. What can be done to make them bigger?

[@beadaholique]

You can potentially measure out more cord and beads for the parts that use the seed beads. If you need assistance getting these pieces on our site, please send us an email at [e-mail]. Thanks for watching!!

[@berthacruickshank2288]

Love this piece. The Center pip beads add a beautiful touch. What size are the seed beads? I am guessing 6/0 ‘s ? Thanks for sharing.

[@beadaholique]

Thank You! We use Toho Round Seed Beads 8/0.

[@berthacruickshank2288]

Thank you so much for your quick reply. Much appreciated.

[@beadaholique]

No problem. Glad to help. Take care! : )

[@nancybuchanan9830]

My kit with the purple seed beads & pip beads arrived today. I cannot fit my thread (from the kit) through the pip beads. I tried using a needle and the pip bead broke. Any suggestions how to thread these tiny-holed pip beads?

[@nancybuchanan9830]

+Nancy Buchanan to Beadaholique: I put superglue on the ends and have been able to thread them now. However, in order to get your effect, does it matter which direction the pip beads are threaded?

[@beadaholique]

+Nancy Buchanan Hi, I am glad you were able to the thread the beads okay. In terms of the direction of the pip beads, it does not matter how they are threaded. Have fun with the kit!

[@glossydemarco358]

Does anyone know what size pip beads to use?

[@beadaholique]

The pip beads are 7x5mm. They can be found here: www.beadaholique.com/catalogsearch/result/?type=all&q=Czech+Glass+Pip+Beads%2C+Smooth+Drops+7x5mm

[@glossydemarco358]

That's great, thank you!

[@ann-ingridhelik3056]

The pips are7x5mm. You get 50 in the kit.

[@angiedj62]

I'm fairly new to beaded kumihimo. Could you please tell me how much of a difference it makes when using 6/0 on a bracelet that calls for 8/0? I'm just asking in general. I bought several size 6/0 before watching the videos but many videos I've seen are done with 8/0. I don't want to 6s to go unused but how would I adjust for the size difference?

[@beadaholique]

Using larger beads will have a very significant impact on how the design looks. 6/0 beads are approximately 1mm larger than 8/0 beads, so the 1mm difference will add up. You can still use the same techniques for braiding, but you may end up using more cord. Just leave yourself enough thread/cord on your bobbins before you begin and you should be able to complete the project. Thanks for watching!

[@angiedj62]

Thanks for the info.

[@esmith2dals]

What is the cord made of that you are using? A specific brand? Name of cord?

[@beadaholique]

The chord is made of twisted nylon. Specifically it's BeadSmith S-Lon in size #18. We've made hundreds of kumi projects with it over the years. You can see the details on it here: www.beadaholique.com/p-34594-beadsmith-super-lon-s-lon-cord-size-18-twisted-nylon-black-77-yard-spool.aspx

[@xymox61]

This page doesn't exist anymore. Is it S-lon Tex 135 or 210?

[@glossydemarco358]

210

[@esmith2dals]

what size seed beads are you using for this braclet?

[@beadaholique]

We use Toho round 8/0s for these bracelets

[@ladydi366]

What is the cord you're using ?

[@beadaholique]

This project uses Super Lon Cord, available here: www.beadaholique.com/catalogsearch/result/?ca_brand=9712&q=BeadSmith+Super-Lon+%28S-Lon%29+Cord+-+Size+18+Twisted+Nylon&type=all Thanks for watching!

[@kamilaalmaguer8125]

I order my kit and never got my kumihimo disk and the 8 little disk,my name is Teresa Leon ,I am very frustrated with your company.

[@beadaholique]

Hi Teresa, so sorry you haven't gotten your disk and bobbins yet. Have you reached out to anyone on our customer service team yet? If you send us an email at [e-mail] we can track down your order and figure out what's gone wrong.

[@IMRad4JC]

Too bad Beadaholique no longer carries this kit; I think it's one of their loveliest kits.

[@misty_roses2063]

Does anyone know what size of bobbins come in these kits?

[@beadaholique]

They are 2.5 inches wide. They are available here: www.beadaholique.com/no-tangle-flexible-plastic-thread-bobbins-for-kumihimo-or-macrame-2-1-2-inch-8-pack.html Thanks for watching!
