I swear I have been looking for this for years and when i say years i mean years. My friend is from Sierra Leone and she has been supplying me with free waist beads. I always wanted to make them myself. Thanks for the video, the thread type was the missing link. Great video. I prefer the screw on clasp.

[@hellaSwankkyToo]

question: is the purpose of the silver clasp you started with to make the beads removable? + if so, if the intention is to create a permanent strand this tutorial isn't the right one, right? moreover, if we want a specific pattern and not just random beads, do we need any of the tools used in the tutorial (curved needle, bead spinner, etc.)?

[@Justjannnn]

Yes the clasp is to make it removable, but you can do all the same steps without the clasps and just knotting it on yourself if you want it permanent. Also if you were doing a pattern it would be easier sliding the beads on manually while using a needle to make it easier

[@hellaSwankkyToo]

@@Justjannnn ahhhh gotcha! OK thank you so much for replying, i appreciate it. still learned a bunch from your video too. 🖤✊🏾

[@wonderruss7201]

Seems simple enough thanks for making this video. Can’t wait to try it. Now question how tight should these beads be on your waist

[@Justjannnn]

You can measure wherever you want the beads to lay and always leave half of inch extra

[@denequewhatley7038]

Where did you get your beads from?

[@carolinejohnson4070]

Thanks! I'm going to make my own.

[@Justjannnn]

You’re welcome 🥰

[@danashasmith4505]

Thank you this is a very helpful video a few questions Does needle size matter ? I’m considering doing this for a business. All the person would need is to send me their measurements in order for me to know how long to make the waist bead correct ? Lol I know that may sound like a simple question but I wanna be sure. Why did you buy the junior and not the standard size bead bowl does that matter ? Any advice on where to get different beads ? I know there are a lot of different store options. I just wanted to know your preference.

[@Justjannnn]

Yes the needle size matters because the 8/0 beads are very small with a tiny hole lol & yes just ask them their exact measurements of where they would want it to lay. & for the bead bowl it wouldn’t really matter the size you use. There are a lot of bead websites, beadkraft.com is really good

[@MsInfinity9]

Great tutorial…thank you! May I ask what size beads you used in the video?

[@Justjannnn]

Thank you, I used 8/0 size beads

[@celestmcpherson7987]

Thank you for this video. Where can I get the lock for the wasn't bead to buy.

[@Justjannnn]

Hi, can you ask the question again. You have some typos

[@CeeJay.S]

Wauw very useful! I do have a question, what if I want to use bigger beads, will the spinner still be helpful? Thankyou!

[@Justjannnn]

Thank you! & how much bigger are you talking? It probably wouldn’t be as efficient with sliding on as easily but if its 8mm beads they’re big enough for you to slide on manually

[@therogers5507]

Thank you so I've been trying and watching others the videos but I couldn't get them down packed and your I got it thank you so much I got a down pack now

[@Justjannnn]

So happy I could help 🥰 thank you

[@1Glamrys]

What size is your bead spinner? Is it a Junior or Mini? Also where did you get your beads? Wonderful informative video. Thank you 😊

[@sladewong7435]

thank you its very useful idea for my mom well appreciate it

[@Justjannnn]

You’re welcome 🥰

[@angelaburnett4953]

Can you tell me the exact name of the small clasps and he name of the wood point tool you used please. Fantastic tutorial. Thank you!

[@Justjannnn]

It’s called a screw on clasps and the wood took is from a set to make clay

[@boodaboo]

Very good video. I was told to use elastic and not thread. May I ask your preference?

[@Justjannnn]

Thank you! I used elastic when i just started, I didn’t like it much but it’s all up to you. Play around with both and see

[@boodaboo]

@@Justjannnn thank you. I just ordered the spinner from Amazon with the curved needles. I will try that next.

[@boodaboo]

How do you know what to charge your customers for the waist beads?

[@Justjannnn]

@@boodaboo I was charging only $10 because they were just regular and it didn’t take long to make but I no longer sell them.

[@boodaboo]

@@Justjannnn thank you.

[@Ag13463]

Amazing video

[@taiuqsab]

I got all the materials you linked in the description but the only problem I’m having is with getting the beads past the needle and onto the thread. They’re getting stuck and I can pull them through with force but I’m bending my needle up in the process. Should I use a stronger needle?

[@Justjannnn]

What size beads did you use? The beads could be too small or the needle might be too thick

[@taiuqsab]

@@Justjannnn thank you. My beads were too small. I got 12s and returned them for 6s. Much better and sturdier! I was able to double the thread too.

[@Justjannnn]

@@taiuqsab Happy to hear 🥰

[@1Glamrys]

Is the spinner a Junior or Mini? Where do you purchase your beads? Do you have a link?

[@Justjannnn]

I am really not sure but I would say mini because it’s really small & you can get beads from jewelryandfindings.com

Is there a size of bead u get to where it wont easily catch anymore? I'm thinking the needle is very lightweight so some beads might be too heavy?
