Gina, I am so grateful to you. This is gorgeous...I love it. Please keep all the chatter in your videos. It is very helpful for beaders like me. All of your work is awesome and this is a job well done in such a short time. You are a life saver, thanks again.

[@GinasGemCreations]

+ARCELIA OLADEJI LOL, I will keep the chatter, I like chatter...ha, I am glad you like my chatter too👍😁

[@oneitaledford851]

[@GinasGemCreations]

Awe, you are too sweet! Thank you for watching 💕💕💕

[@tradcathpat6807]

Yay!!!!! I've always wanted to do a necklace with this pattern, but it never looked right 🤔. I'm so glad you have the time to do it for us.... thanks, Gina! It's beautiful!!! 🤗👏👍

[@GinasGemCreations]

Anna Centanni yes, I have had the idea in my mind for some time, I am happy it actually worked the way I wanted it to. I am happy you like it.

[@KarenJoly-nd6mx]

You are always so clear in what beads you are taking up, and then you pause to show what is on your needle. I love your videos and this necklace is another beauty! Thank you Gina

[@GinasGemCreations]

You are very welcome. I’m glad you find the videos helpful❤️

[@GinasGemCreations]

You are very welcome. I’m glad you find the videos helpful❤️

[@80Dooley]

Gina, I love this necklace. Thank you so much for another well done tutorial. I love everything you make and I am really looking forward to creating this one with you.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Yes, this one is fun, it’s one of my favorite designs, enjoy!

[@lindamegarry6152]

Gina, thank you!!!! I just finished the necklace, bracelet and earrings. How wonderfully talented you are. Thank you for sharing with all of us. Your tutorial is wonderfully informative, clear and precise and I am able to follow. I have been using the thread attachment for awhile and I LOVE it.

[@GinasGemCreations]

+Linda Megarry I am very happy to hear you enjoyed making the set. Thank you for your nice complements. I too think that extending fire line is fabulous, I love it too!

[@gwynnstevens4418]

I think showing up close is important I really like how you show your work up close and you explain what you are picking up It’s a lot easier to see and follow Thank you for all of your beautiful and amazing work

[@olgakapua4224]

Beautiful !Thank you very very much. Such a great teacher. So detailed made easy to follow. I made it and i am very proud of myself thanks to you Gina!Thank you

[@GinasGemCreations]

Fantastic! Enjoy😁❤️

[@madampolo]

I am impressed on how pretty this necklace is. Thanks for sharing it.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Joyce T you are welcome, it did turn out pretty.😄

[@heatherclements2680]

Very pretty! I like the choice of herringbone for the extension, that way you don't have the exposed thread bridges of ladder stitching.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Yes, that is true🌹

[@leostitcher]

I'm not sure why anyone would want to see your beads when you pick them up. I love that you have such a clear up close video. Thanks a bunch for sharing how to make this absolutely gorgeous necklace and all your other videos as well.

[@GinasGemCreations]

I agree, I don’t worry about showing them anymore, I think seeing the piece and process is more important😁

[@disnip]

Thank you so much for this video. Your creations are beautiful. I recently had cataract eye surgery on both my eyes and I'm finding it so difficult to work with beads again. I have got myself a magnifying glass with a light but still it's really hard. But I managed to follow your instructions and made a beautiful piece. So proud of myself. Your clear and concise instructions were easy to follow. A big THANK YOU.

[@GinasGemCreations]

+dina SCP you are very Welcome! I know, as age, it is getting harder and harder to see my beads too, there are days have to take many breaks to allow my eyes to rest. I am happy you were able to do this one!

[@kathrynjustice-case2924]

Hi Gina, I have been a silent student of yours for about six months now, I am a silversmith that was challenged to try bead weaving, I am happy to say I've come along way, I no longer mangle thread beyond all recognition, and can oftentimes work ahead knowing what you are going to do next, the reason I can do this is because you gave me such a strong foundation. your clear precise instruction ensured that I had a clear understanding of every stitch and how it worked in fact there are some tutorials i would never have successfully completed had i not had your teaching first giving me a basic understanding of the stitch they were working in, now i'm proud to say a lot of times I don't need quite as precise direction but i dont forget when i couldnt have done it without it if not for you i would certainly have lost the bet to my friend bead weaving is a challenging art for sure thanks for helping me grasp it Newbies like me need teachers like you to ensure we grasp every step and im grateful

[@GinasGemCreations]

+Kathryn Justice-Case Hi, nice to know you are out there. I know many people get irritated with too much instruction, but because I am teaching such a vast audience at various skill levels, I teach assuming that no one knows what’s going to happen next. I realize many do, but many do not. Those that do just get irritated and skip the video forward. Those who do not, get frustrated and stuck. So I try to make sure that doesn’t happen. I keep the designs pretty simple and straight forward, but pretty, for the same reasons. Thank you for letting me know that my methods are working. I am happy you won your bet! 😁

[@lisabeadsworld3746]

thank you for this simple yet elegant necklace ! and special thanks for the method to tie knot and add thread !!!

[@GinasGemCreations]

+LISA BEADSWORLD Yes, that method is the best trick I have ever learned!

[@Sciencegrinds]

Can you give a link to the other channel for beginners please?

[@lidiac2315]

[@elizabethphillip9907]

Gina good morning thanks for sharing your talent time and creativity with us and for taking the time to instruct and explain the different options we have at our disposal Even though I havent started beading yet I loved your tutorials thanks very much

[@GinasGemCreations]

Elizabeth Phillip thank you for watching, I hope when you are ready to start the videos have given you an idea of what to get and where to start.

[@elizabethphillip9907]

Thanks for responding

[@yvettewatts8563]

Beautiful Necklace and I appreciate this tutorial so much. You explained the process step by step, therefore no second guessing... Cut down on time.. Thank you

[@GinasGemCreations]

+Yvette Watts you're welcome I'm glad you enjoyed it. I know some people think I talk too much but it really does help to have every detail pointed out so there is not guessing. I am really happy that this style of teaching works for you.

[@yvettewatts8563]

Gina's Gem Creations I appreciate your jewelry tutorials ... You give details, step by step instructions. When I'm looking for jewelry tutorials, I look for certain words, ENG or English. Which Means detail instructions. That guarantee success and positive feedback and referrals. I will refer others to your page and subscribed. I have watched jewelry tutorial and some artist just play music, from the beginning until the end. Now, I am confused? watching the tutorial, without anyone giving us any instructions, or materials needed. When teaching others, the first rule should be, 1)The materials you need to start and complete the process. 2) what to expect. 3) Do you understand the instructions

[@maravilla757]

EXCELENT explanation! Beautiful project. Thank you for teaching us

[@GinasGemCreations]

You are very welcome, thank you for watching!

[@edithpovadora76]

Hi Gina,I really really love your tutorial,and I love your designs.It is hard at first,but when you get it and have the finish product ,it is so rewarding.Everything on your designs are so BEAUTIFUL.I am learning a lot,and THANK YOU SOOO MUCH.(I want to make them all)LOL!!

[@GinasGemCreations]

Thank you, I am really happy you like the designs. Practice does make it all easier, for sure. Have fun!🌹

[@GinasGemCreations]

+Crochet and Knitting you are welcome💕

[@BDTStudio]

@Susan Collins: what you call “chatter” is Gina carefully explaining each step in detail, highly important for new beaders who might not have as much experience as you. I like it better than some video beading teachers who hardly talk at all, as if they don’t care if you get it or not. Gina makes me feel like she is a friend sitting down at my kitchen table teaching me.

[@GinasGemCreations]

BDTStudio thank you! I swear, everyone’s a critic.

[@susandavis5517]

BDTStudio hi there. Thanks for your reply and I guess this is our difference as I have never had nor do have any friends or family so I guess I'm not used to the chatter. Explanation much appreciated though. X

[@GinasGemCreations]

Well, I am glad to be your company, you can just chatter along with me. LOL. I had two boys, I always had to explain in minute detail how to do everything...ha! Left foot, right foo, inhale exhale...I swear, every move. Little boys are funny that way. Guess I just got used to directing them and that never went away...❤️😁

[@susandavis5517]

BDTStudio lol.. I know the feeling.. I have 4 girls and two of them have autism and one epilepsy so I know the step by step blurb but they find it easy to copy how I make jewellery and pretty much copy.. 😍

[@IsasisCollection]

I wholeheartedly agree!

[@marinavargas878]

This is a beautiful necklace pattern and very well explained, thank you.

[@cindy9376]

Hi Gina, I am completely new to this craft and am trying to learn as much as possible. Today I found your channel and have to say that I absolutely LOVE the way you do your tutorials. I have learned so much today and right now I am watching this particular video for the second time around and then there will be a 3rd when I make this gorgeous piece. I LOVE the way you teach. I listen to every single word and the last word is as important as the first word to me. Please if you will, I need the close-ups way way more than watching you pick up each bead so please please do not change the way you do your videos. Can't wait to watch everything else you have. Thank you so much for making these fantastic videos.

[@GinasGemCreations]

+Cindy Hi, nice to have you here! I Ann so happy you like my channel! So nice to hear that. I agree that close ups are more important, that's why I never worried about showing the beads, I am sure there will always be people who disagree, but I think things are going to stay the same👍❤️😀😜

[@Carmen-uj7ju]

Una belleza! Gracias por tu paciencia 🤗

[@dawsie]

To be honest we don’t need to see you picking up the beads but seeing the close up of what you are doing is so much more important. I am not a beginner to beading but I still love to watch you and others for inspiration for my own works. Sometimes I have stitch along side while watching so I can get the feel of the way fall into place. When you zoomed out I could hardly see the piece you were working on. I have found going around 3 times for the crystal works best for me but I also use a number 13 short needle have tried the longer needles but can not handle it 😹😹 it gets too bendy 😹😹 but I have found the Tulip 13# needle a nice size needle. Thanks for the tutorial it was fun to watch 🤗🤗

Stunning! I will have to build up some courage to tackle this one.

[@GinasGemCreations]

It’s pretty easy once you get the hang of it. Try it, you’ll see!

[@YourGriefandTraumaTherapist]

would it work with larger pearls? thanks for your encouragement.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Yes, but you will have to increase the amount or the size, or both, of the the supporting seed beads. You will have to sit and make a unit or two. Use the same pattern just modify the sizes and numbers of beads until they lay correctly.

[@GinasGemCreations]

You have to extend your Fireline, if you are using Fireline. Or you have to add thread by tying it on. I will put a link here that will show you how... kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqrGfp2ni8R3ea8
