Bezeled Cabochons

[@j.whiteoak6408]

This is one of the best videos Stephanie has ever done on bezeling Cabs! I've learned more from Stephanie in just a couple of vids than I did from 50 or so beading books.. She's a brilliant teacher! ❤️ 💐

[@BronzeponyBeadedJewelry]

Wow, thank you!

[@SuzanneClavelle-ju3rc]

Thanks! It took about 6 times but finally did it! Another fantastic tutorial - thank you 😊

[@BronzeponyBeadedJewelry]

Thank you so much Suzanne! I'm glad it worked for you 🥰

[@loycehake7151]

Doctor! You've cured all my cabachon problems! Thank you!

[@Eittap]

Explaining the difference in the cabs and how to adjust to them is just what I needed. Thank you so much for another fun and informative tutorial. I have been cab happy lately, a nice change.

[@olganakatomugerwa7436]

Yes the explanation ws very helpful. I didnt even know they were different. Thank you Stephanie

[@deeconlon1886]

Before bezelling a Lunasoft cab, be sure to apply a thin layer of resin or clear nail polish to the back. Otherwise, the metallic backing will easily scratch

[@abbynormal4740]

Thanks for the great tip!

[@angela_perelli_777]

on top too it's necessary in my experience, dear Dee💗

Обожаю все ваши видео. Очень нравится как вы сочетаете цвета! Спасибо!

[@toniecat1028]

I've been beading on and off for 60 years - since I was 8 years old. I learned from a young native/american boy, my age, who had a crush on me & wanted to teach me. I've been wanting to learn this technique for a long time. When I first wanted to use cabs as focal beads, I could find more info using wire than beads so that is when I started using wire. I'm so grateful to see this being taught here - thank you! 😉

[@melindafuhrer3820]

Thanks for the good explanation on bezeling different cabs, you do that so well.

I just love watching bezel tutorials. It’s almost as good as eating chocolate! The striped bezels are sooo beautiful!

[@deborahnarendorf7106]

Saw your beautiful new necklace and you mentioned this video. I commented on this a year ago, so I had to go back and review this wonderful teaching video. You are such a great teacher! Gosh this made such a difference to me because I believed I would never be able to bead like this. Now because of your reassuring and calm nature I did learn and now think nothing about tackling a cab. Thanks so much, Stephane. 💞

[@BronzeponyBeadedJewelry]

Thank you so much Deborah🥰 I’m so glad the tutorials are helpful🌸

[@sue7777]

Thanks, Stephanie, for guiding us through bezeling a cabachon. I had to laugh, at about 16:30, where you encourage us to "hold it gently" is usually where I have a freakin' death grip on the cab! Thanks for sharing your beading experiences with us.

[@BronzeponyBeadedJewelry]

Sue You’re very welcome Sue🌻😃🙏 I also find I clench my teeth to go along with your death grip at certain times when bezeling lol 😂

[@infinity21inspirit2]

As always, I clicked the Like button first before even watching this. I'm so excited because I have 3 bags full of cabochons I ordeered a while back. Thank you Stephanie you are a blessing to us especially during these times. Stay healthy please!

[@BronzeponyBeadedJewelry]

Thank you 🌻😍🧡

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

OMGosh! As much as I love your "Mother Earth" pendant and your "Turquoise Love" pendant from 4 years ago, both gemstone cabochons, I really appreciate this tutorial. You've shown me that I'm on the right track with figuring out how to bezel my flat-back stones and crystals. Takes a little trial and error sometimes. One thing I really like about this design is how you used 2 different colors to create a stripe that goes up the sides of the stone. Then by reversing your 2 colors when you down-size to the 15's, it differentiates the top ring/rim from the side part. So beautiful. One thing I'd love for you to show us is how you get the scalloped edge on the top. I think I can figure it out, but it's always nice to see how. Thanks so much for this awesome tutorial! Really appreciate your time and efforts.

[@BronzeponyBeadedJewelry]

So glad the tutorial was helpful Michelle! It really is a process and doesn't always come out depending on the shape of the stone. But so worth trying!

[@karenleigh2786]

I am so behind on your videos because I enjoy the creative process of your videos, and I take my time beading along with you. I am so happy to see this one and sorry I didn't see it sooner, but I have been looking forward to this video for a long time. I am one of the many that requested this tutorial. Thank you so much. I am going to be spending a long time on this one as I have sooooo many cabs that need some creative design. Thank you for this VLOG. Love it!!

[@Judithptak]

Thank you much! I have so many cabs I bought intending to wire wrap...but got burned out of wire wrapping. I have a few tear drop shaped ones also that I would be interested in learning how to bezel if that is possible!...I love all of your creations!

Hi there. I just wanted to thank you so much for showing us how to bezel a cabochon. I'm a self taught artist. I do gemstones, crystals, wire wrapping and beadweaving jewelry and special ornaments meant to be displayed. I sell at craft fairs and poshmark. I've been beading for about 4 years but never knew how to bezel a cabochon. I can bezel a round swarovski rivoli. I'm super excited to try this out on 1 of my ten thousand cabs. Lol. I appreciate your taking the time to share this with us. Once again, I can't thank you enough. Sincerely, Melissa Doucette p.s you're a super teacher.

Happy Summer Days Stefi!!! I am thrilled and over the moon that today we get to start this new series!!! I find I watch alot of videos, however, I only actually learn from a couple of artist, you are one of them and I also have a Native American artist I learn from, but for the most part you are the one teaching me how to bead and all that it entails. I am so appreciated by your generosity of sharing your knowledge of this wonderful medium!!! Hugs from Vancouver, Canada xo Lynn :)

Recently I bought a book which was recommended to me on bezelling cabochons. What a waste of money! Your video was so much more instructive and so inspirational. Your choice of beads is always so beautiful and inspiring. This book was the complete opposite in choice of beads - delicas didn’t even get a mention - and there was very little there that I found inspiring.

[@scarletpimpernelagain9124]

Watched this and THEN bought the cabachons I liked best of Perles.UK. Now have a lovely collection of Gemstone, Lunasoft, Swarovski, Czech Glass Perle Puca cabachons, all waiting to be bezelled! It’s been an exercise in finding Myuki colours to match that correspond to my love of blue, black, green, French Grey (third from the left in the pile) silver and pale gold. Worth it though.

I started a pendant like this a couple of years ago and put it away and I really want to finish it but I don't remember how. Looking forward to this video so that I can finish my beautiful cabochon.

[@beckya9830]

Hi Stephanie! Always love your tutorials but this one I really needed. I tried doing this months ago and my natural stone was thicker. I tried doing the normal bezeling and it pooched in the back so I tried another round of 15s still bad so I did another. Couldn’t get it to look like your beauties. 🥺 I gave up which is not my nature. What could/should I have done to make this work? Maybe this was too thick for bezeling? Thank you for sharing all your talents! I enjoy your tutorials and you were one of my first teachers here several years ago when I started this rewarding journey. 😬😍💐

[@cindybrook0520]

Hello, I know, I'm not Stephanie, 🙂 but maybe try a different size/type of seed bead? Instead of an 11/0 Delica, maybe an 8/0 or 11/0 round will work?

I have a couple of questions, I hope someone can answer. I have quite a few loose stones of different shapes and sizes. Cobachons, emerald cuts, faceted ovals, even a few marquis cuts. Some of them a rather large, some a really small. I would love to bezel them all using bead weaving. So my questions are: What is the difference between making a bezel for a cabochon, and a faceted oval? Is it possible to make a beaded bezel for an emerald cut, and a marquis cut? Does it matter that these loose stones were purchased over 30 years ago? Are there tutorials for bezeling emerald cut and marquis cut stones?
