I love wire guards. Nothing worse than creating a beautiful piece of jewelry then having it break from wear. Thanks Allie

Love the finishing touch of wire guards. I’ve seen another KZbinr embellish them by stinging 15/0 seed beads between the closed part on top of the loop. It’s an added finishing touch and helps prevents going through the guard too many times. I haven’t tried embellishing the guards like this yet, but do plan to. Never really realized how important they are until watching this tutorial. Really appreciate and learning a lot from the Better Beaded series. Thanks!

Good info concerning wire guards-I have used them on both earrings and bracelets--they were included in the purchased kits--and I was pleased with the look and feel of them. Thanks Allie, for the info.

Good video. I haven't done beading in a while so I want sure I remembered how to use them. Oh, and as I was watching, I realized I just purchased some beads from your Etsy store! 😊

Thank you for the instruction. I try them sometimes. One clasp I use is the square magnetic clasp on bracelets. My 86 year old mother in law has a hard time clasping other clasps and she loves the square one because one side fits into the other side so they do not pull apart easily so she loses it, but fits together very simply and securely. One problem is that clasp has small holes and I haven't found a wire guard yet that will fit into it. If you have that clasp could you see if you have a size of wire guard that will fit into that clasp hole? If you carry that size wire guard I would love to buy them from you. I do love these instructional videos. I am learning a lot. Thanks. 😊

Hi Allie. Thank you. I would like to know when to use the different sizes and with what thread or wire.
@Potomacbeadco5 жыл бұрын
Hi Francine, we just stock the one size because it can hold two or three strands of thread and one strand of beading wire, which is sufficient for most projects.

Is this really necessary for very dainty gemstone necklaces (17" 2-3mm) if the wire that is used is 19 strand by beadalon?
@Potomacbeadco3 жыл бұрын
Also 19 strand is not the thickness, it is the bendableness and strength. Most likely she is using .015 in size. It is not necessary it just gives a more polished look at the end.
