How to Use a Beading Board to Make a Strung Necklace from Start to Finish

[@nabilariskalla9197]

Great tip regarding coiling the necklace before finishing the other end to make sure that the necklace is not stiff..great tutorial, thank you ☺️

[@ExiledQ]

You just started me on a journey I didn’t know I was destined for. Thanks for this!

[@veronicatampus5461]

Thank you so much. You are such a great teacher. You speak clearly and explained it so well. I have not done any jewelry making and I’m glad I had a chance to browse on your channel. I’m looking for a hobby that would make me busy during this pandemic. God bless you for sharing your talent.

[@beadaholique]

Thanks for watching Veronica! We've heard from a lot of viewers like you who have started or re-discovered jewelry making right now while looking for a new indoor hobby. You're in good company, and I'm glad we could help even if it's only in the smallest way.

[@veronicatampus5461]

Beadaholique thanks for replying and the encouraging words. Do you have a store where I can buy my supplies? What starter kit would you suggest being that I am new in this kind of craft. Thanks and God bless you all.

[@beadaholique]

We sure do have a store thanks for asking :) For a starter kit I'd recommend something like this 8 piece tool kit. It will cover a lot of the basics for working with wire, which we we're doing in almost every one of our videos, even if it's just a wire head pin or eye pin. beadaholique.com/products/beadsmith-8-piece-plier-tweezer-set-aqua-green-jewelers-tool-kit-with-travel-case Something that kit doesn't include is a pair of crimping pliers to do the kind of finishing work you see in this video. Here I'd recommend going higher quality, crimping is so often frustrating for people when they're starting out, and sometime its stays frustrating until you have a good tool for it: beadaholique.com/products/xuron-4-in-1-crimping-pliers-works-on-1-2-and-3mm-crimps From there it all depends on what you'd like to make.

[@german69692007]

Absolutely Impressed. Wife and I are now starting crafting back up. Thanks!

[@beadaholique]

Great to hear!

[@mmctaggart3012]

Top -notch teaching video...took the mystery out of finishing the clasp end!

[@sundaywalk6372]

Made one necklace watching this video yesterday for the first time. I got the job done but the wire was short. Today, I listened more carefully, cut the correct amount of wire and voilà! A perfect strand now exists. Yay! Thank you for being so thorough. I feel like a pro!

[@pamelaklemp5615]

I hung onto every word and every visual of this presentation! Exactly 💯. This was, by far, the instructional video I needed 🙏 to bring it all together for me. I'm making a necklace for myself made from Natural Carved Coral Barrel Beads, Natural Carved Coral Round Beads, Natural Black Onyx Round Beads and Natural Coral Rondelle Beads. Your narratives are clear and well communicated. Thank you, again, for an amazing 👏 instructional video. Your finished necklace was very nice, loved the colors you chose to use for it. Hoping you have a wonderful weekend 😊.

[@beadaholique]

Thank you so much! Your bead choices sound lovely.

[@lorenavandenheuvel9131]

Awesome tutorial for a novice like me....keep up the great work. The crimp cover is a new thing for me provides an excellent and classy necklace.

[@bjbj3853]

Thank you for this VERY informative video! I learned how to design and crimp a necklace correctly.

[@fkirby3]

Neat idea about curving the finished piece to be sure it is not too tight before putting on the final clasp. Thank you for the tutorial!

[@thefeatheredking2572]

Not ready for metal wire jewelry yet I like making the stretch cord type. I make matching bracelets and rings with my left over beads. Crafting earrings next for complete sets to sell.

[@stlounsbury]

Great video, and I like that tip where you coil the necklace near the end.

[@nolabluesgirl]

Thank you so much for sharing. I'm new to this crazy and have been going down the rabbit hole and getting overwhelmed with the choices of what to make. When I first saw this video I have to admit I didn't like the beads or the necklace. But as the video progressed and after completion of the the whole process I saw how it all came together and how really pretty it looked. I decided to try it for myself I didn't have the same beads just what I could get from my local craft store they did something similar. I'm so happy with the results it's not anything I would have thought to choose on my own or known to put together being such a beginner. But thank you so much for all your tutorials.

[@beadaholique]

You are so welcome and I am glad you enjoyed it and were inspired by it! If any questions come up, just let us know.

[@aliciasanchez5441]

I'm your new subscriber. I really enjoy watching this kind of thing. I am a retiree, I used to make bead bracelets and earrings but have not tried making necklace. Thank you for this video it gave me tips and tricks on how to make a beautiful necklace made of gem stones. More power to you. 🌹

[@taranbam]

Thanks soooo much for the tutorial, I really struggled with the finish such as crimp and coiling the necklace etc. Thanks again. It was very useful.

[@ronhoffman8141]

This necklace looks very beautiful

[@StitchesbySharonH]

This is so helpful! I have a bead board but I always forget to use it! I find it especially helpful for making multi-strand necklaces. Thank you for sharing! 💜

[@medicineheartds9631]

Very nice. Now I see why a bead board is useful. I will have to get one. That coiling tip is very smart and a new trick for me. Thanks for your help and time 😊.

[@beadaholique]

Always happy to help, glad you liked it!

[@carolyns9687]

Very helpful!! I have a difficult time with my crimper when I use the second spot that it loosens the crimp. So I have given up and just used my pliers. After seeing this I will try again!! Thank you!!💕🇨🇦🇺🇲

[@emiliekamanje1668]

Thank u I will try I got difficulties with endings

[@tesskambie0393]

Thank you for this detail walkthrough. That wire guard at the end for finishing touch is helpful! I forgot to add in my shopping list. Ugh! 😑

[@JuMaRi615]

I find it easier to put on the crimp covers if I pick them up with pliers

[@beadaholique]

That's a good tip thanks Julia!

[@marydonald3453]

Love the coil tension trick. How many necklaces do you see in thrift stores, because their beads don't drape?

[@beadaholique]

Yep, it's such handy little trick. Glad you liked the video!

[@jennifermeza1726]

Wonderful information! This was very helpful 😃

[@julian2524]

[@leorabyrd5926]

I usually pinch the ends of the wire protector closer together to avoid the extra wire showing and the clasp flopping down off of the wire protector... sucks when that happens while u are wearing it lol

[@hajarmoataz5157]

Thank you ❤

[@alextimeeva1690]

Sorry,what is the size of these beads in mm u are using?

[@beadaholique]

They are 10mm Gemstone beads. Here is a link to the beads on our site :) beadaholique.com/search?type=product&q=10mm+gemstones

Great idea!

They're 4mm heishi spacer beads, you can see them up close here: beadaholique.com/products/tierracast-bright-22k-gold-plated-lead-free-pewter-disk-heishi-spacer-beads-4mm-50

[@valerieoldham9094]

❤❤

[@irenestrienfeld6696]

What size thread protector do you use for those beads?

[@beadaholique]

Your thread protectors are based on the size of wire not the size of the beads. What ever wire you choose will have a measurement you can match to the protectors.

I cannot for the life of me understand why the 8 marking is not accurate where it’s written? I’ve read the board over and over again, and it seems accurate. It’s killing me that I can’t get this
