Beaded Chain Necklace Tutorial Using 1-Step Looper!

[@lisamisner8973]

Love all your work, your artistic eye is awesome!! There is one more step to the one step looper.. If you'll grab the bead before you pull it off and push it over it closes the loop for you so you don't have to manually do it with a pair of pliers.. I saw somebody do it when I KZbind how to use my new Looper when I got it..

[@TurquoiseStreet]

Good to know! I will have to try that!! Thank you for the tip!

[@palmalajoiner-hearn4761]

I love watching. I was introduced to beads by my granny at a young age!

[@texasgigi3684]

Beautiful necklace! You really have an eye for color and design!

[@TurquoiseStreet]

Thank you so much!

I started making jewlery 4yrs ago. I have carpal tunnel and arthritis, Neuropathy and sciatica. I love making jewlery.

[@dragonflyflutterby2952]

I know I have RSD/CRPS in both hands, Trigger Thumbs and wrist nerve damage. This would take me a week at least. I really wish I started this at a young age. I’d be great by now and would have been able to sell quite a lot. It’s good for you to learn young because it’s always something you can fall back on if you need a side job or a full job selling. It’s so nice to be able to make nice things for people too. 🩵🙏🏼

[@activeincolorado]

Just a quick tip: when using the loopers if you dont hold the bead or wire on the left side of the looper you will get a better loop. learned this the hard way! lol

[@TurquoiseStreet]

Thanks for the tip!!! 🥰💕

[@joycematso4730]

And facing the same way Awesome 👏👏👏👏

[@chrisgunderson4351]

I have found that the hole on the right side is higher than where you would hold the left side with the bead so when u squeeze the loop is not closed or the wire is a little misshapen. Maybe this is on purpose

[@ericacole7102]

I just started buying rolls of wire and cutting it. Most of the jewelry I make is like yours and I use lots of head pins which is quite expensive. It is so much cheaper and I can control the gauge

[@janeilebowling8751]

It s cheaper to buy rolls of wire. I have been making jewelry for about 7 years. Your wire makes a big difference in whatever kind jewelry that you are trying to make. I learned that the hard way.

[@rockcabu]

You can use the piece that is cut and put it back into the Looper and make more pins from the scrap piece. Just put it in and line it up at the part that cuts and it will make a loop from the straight end. I did this yesterday and it worked amazing

[@JoansJunkJournalsAndMore]

I LOVE my one step loopers. Just over a week ago I bought the 1.5mm and loved it so much I bought the 3mm the very next day lol Six bracelets and 5 necklaces later assembled same as yours (never used a single eye pin either) and no regrets. I love how you added a pendant to yours and I just might do that with one or two of mine now. I also bought them because of my arthritis and wish I had years ago. Take care and stay safe. ☺♥

[@paulinejohnson3527]

Thank you so much for posting this video I’m recovering from chemo and have neuropathy in my hands and fingers so it was so nice to see there’s a tool to use to make the loops. I enjoyed watching your videos so much inspired me to make some jewelry which I haven’t done in years since high school where I learned when I attended a music and arts high school. I. had crutches so in place of gym classes I had art and music classes. I am looking forward to again making jewelry. I subscribed.

[@jazzybee5148]

I have the one step looper, and I was thrilled when they came out with it! I also have arthritis in my hands, and It was to the point I stopped making link necklaces. I love the beautiful long necklace you made, and Goldie is just a sweetheart!

[@TurquoiseStreet]

It is the best tool and I totally forgot I had it! It would have made my Y necklace a lot easier! Thank you so much for watching!!

[@dianepeter3625]

Neat! I have and love all 3 sizes of looper but I don't have any of those multi head pliers, I think that those would be a good thing to have so I'll have to look around and see which ones I like best. I find that it's easier to open and close jump rings if you grip it with the side of the pliers and not the tips, less chance of it twisting like it did in this video.

[@nadineglomboski1852]

Thank you, I have the original looper, but didn’t know it came larger.

[@TurquoiseStreet]

They are so handy!!

[@maryzylema9699]

Botswana agate is one of my favorite gemstones. And everything goes well with blue . So I love it and thank you for sharing. 🤗💖

[@TheSparklyBeader87]

Cool! I was wondering how those loopers worked. My arthritis wrist/finger pain is compounded by a fall I had on concrete while teaching. My wrist has never been the same. Cortisone injections do not help. Pretty necklace! 💖🌷💍💎

Oh no! I literally feel your pain! Hopefully if you purchase one of these it will help! Thanks for watching!!

Love your necklace I use the one step looper I have arthritis as well I have RA it is nice to have. I just have the medium size I need to get the other ones , but I do not go out either.

[@brendaanderson6250]

[@mary-kittybonkers2374]

When I started making jewellery I used a looper very much like the one you demonstrated but I felt that I couldn’t really call myself a person who makes bead and wire jewellery if I was relying on a quick fix aid. I then learned how to make various loops without the looper, and with practice I’m getting better at it. The other thing with the looper is that the blade that finally cuts the excess wire quickly becomes blunt resulting in poor results. I’m not ‘anti’ them, they have their place, I just prefer to make loops by hand. Lovely necklace by the way.

[@TurquoiseStreet]

For those with mobility issues, it may be the only way they can make jewelry. I definitely don’t think it makes their jewelry “less than” or “not real” if someone needs help. I can’t make a wire wrapped loop without regular pliers and that’s just another tool. Hopefully this will give you a different way of looking at things! Thanks for watching!

[@mary-kittybonkers2374]

@@TurquoiseStreet I agree that loopers can make things easier for people with disabilities affecting their upper limbs. I have bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome and an inflammatory osteoarthritis which affects my spine and upper limbs. I’ve used the various sizes of looper to see if it made forming the loops any easier but for me it didn’t because it took too much grip force to bring the two arms together to form the loop and cut it, so the benefit of reducing the stress on the wrist when forming the loop, was reduced, and like in the video, I’d have to use round nose and chain nose pliers to form them in the desired shape anyway. So ultimately for me they didn’t help. I’m very sorry that you felt that I was being dismissive about using them. I can see that I came across like that, I really am sorry. Your jewellery is very beautiful.

[@joanneburns7704]

This necklace is beautiful :)

[@juliekeil8791]

I have a looper, but learned how to use it better with your video. ❤

And all those wasted ends that I threw away. Argh. Lol

[@christigutierrez4561]

[@AMG-cw8ip]

BTW...Every finding from Hobby Lobby or Joann will tarnish fast. It's only plated, not filled or solid alloy. I always go to a reputable jewelry supplier to get gold or gold filled findings.

[@dinajenkins2076]

Hi, I think your necklace turned out beautiful and now I learned something new because I have not made a beaded necklace like that and I do have a one step blooper I think I am going to use it and make a necklace similar to yours. I have to say though sometimes I can’t remember which way to put the Eye pin and the tool LOL.

[@TurquoiseStreet]

Yay!! So glad you learned something new!

what is the name of the one you ordered and or bought and brand etc..... thanks. dose it hold up to a lot of use? thanks

[@rabbitlovesraven]

@@amc5936 I don't remember the brand name but it was the smallest size michaels had when I went in there last, they're kinda spendy but TOTALLY worth it when it comes to having consistant loops and not killing your hands when you're making lots of loops for stuff.

Love the necklace. Just recently started doing jewlery, where's a good place to get focal beads? Feel like that's what's missing from the small stash that I have.

[@TurquoiseStreet]

Thank you! Hobby Lobby/Joanns/Michaels have sales regularly on focals! Those are great places to start!!

[@marykay2461]

You can also google bead sales. There are TONS of sites!!! I also get things at that places mentioned above. Oh and don’t forget Walmart in store craft area and they have stuff online too. Good luck and have fun!!

[@sandrathomas2079]

Love it.❤❤

[@ely42609]

While I love the one step looper,there is one thing that I hate about it,and that is the space that it leaves between the bead and the loop.There is way too much wire exposed. Is there a way to minimize that? I looked all over KZbin and can't find a remedy to it.

[@rebeccamatthews7606]

I also wonder if you can make loops at both ends (using a scrap piece of wire), rather than wasting more than half the pin?
