Easy Tennis Style Necklace Tutorial

[@kldix4731]

This beautiful😍 I'm glad you mentioned that Shirley is running her store all by herself. There's a lot that goes into running a store that we customers never see. She's doing a great job when we consider that she's one person doing the work of at least six people.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

Yes, she is really working hard. She keeps her overhead low by doing it all by herself, passing the savings on to us beaders. However, that means we all need to patient💙💙💙💙

Love those cuboids! Very pretty Gina thank you for sharing!

Thank you, hope you had a happy mom’s day too!

I love this! I have to find a design to go with my dress for my daughters wedding. This one just made my top 3. This is so, so pretty and looks pretty easy to do. By the way, your NAILS are absolutely STUNNING!!! 😍❤️

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

Thank you, I love having my nails done, it’s one of my few indulgences. I hope you find the perfect design for your daughters wedding!💜

I’m so glad to hear you will do an earring tutorial. I’m going to make the bracelet for a teacher and an Instructional Assistant I work with, and I wanted to make them earrings as well! May 20th is the last day! This school year has been so weird and hard. Luckily, my township school board is giving a one time hazard stipend to us for hazard pay!

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

Yes the last year and a half has been weird and hard in so many ways, especially for teachers. I will try to put together an earring this week end.😁

[@maddydeth]

I made this with 4mm bicones. I used 8/0 for the center row and 8/0 for the top row and 11/0 for the bottom row. The bicones were 12 different colors. I used pairs of same colors and repeated the sequence of the 12. I love it and have gotten many compliments when wearing it. Thanks for the lovely pattern. I did order the cuboid sandwich will make another with those once they arrive.

[@harrietbaskette3152]

I absolutely love your teaching method. I am not a new beader but I have learned so much from you. Love the necklace, can't wait to make one.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

That’s so nice to hear! Makes all the effort worthwhile. Have fun with this one.

[@ReadwithChimey]

Wow! The necklace and your nails are both beautiful ❤️. I love jewelries, and I'm looking to learn. Absolutely amazing. Thank you. Just stunning!

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

You are very welcome, so happy you like it, welcome to the jewelry making world!

@@GGCBeginningbeaders bless you. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@thelmafernandez5253]

Gina, thank you for such wonderful and clear instructions of all your projects. I ordered more of the cubic beads from your store. I was so happy that you have the beads needed to complete the projects. I am making several of your necklace for my granddaughter wedding. Thank you, thank you.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

You are very welcome, thank you for ordering , I will have more in colors in a few weeks.😁

[@brittal.3031]

Beautiful. Thank you so much !😍

[@toniearnest1861]

Very pretty !!! I really like the cuboid beads... I will have to keep checking for them to come in stock and put in an order for them !!!

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

Definitely, she has several orders in, hopefully they will be in soon! Just love these beads and will design more pieces with them, I just hesitate because I know her stock sells out fast and it takes forever to get more.🙁

[@mandyb1320]

Beautiful! Those cuboids are so pretty will have to get some of those soon when they are back in stock. I placed my first order at Budget Beadbox and I spoke with Shirley, she is so sweet and giving me such wonderful tips. I didn't realize she was doing all the work by herself so I give her lots of credit. Been there done that with my candle making business. Now it's hobbies only for me. Thank you Gina, for your beautiful designs and giving us great suppliers to help us get great prices.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

Yes, she is sweet and accommodating and all by herself. When I do a video for her she gets a little overwhelmed, so we just have to be patient and wait, it keeps our costs low, it’s the least we can do😊

[@n.s.5001]

Hi Gina. I just finished a necklace from your other channel. It's the diamond rope necklace. I simplified it a bit and i love the way it turned out. Thank you so much for explaining how to make it so clearly! Your instructions were very easily to follow, and your design of the necklace is fab 👌🏼😊

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

You are very welcome, so happy to hear you made that necklace. Sometimes I forget about my older designs. That one is one of my favorites. Thanks for the nice note!💙

[@sandravega5732]

Beautiful necklace. But your nail polish is awesome.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

Thank you, this polish I’d pretty cool, I must admit, entertaining too, I move my fingers around in the light and just watch the nail polish glow...LOL.

@@GGCBeginningbeaders Thank you too 💝 I am following your channel because I love your style. The jewelry you make is always beautiful and I love the bling bling effect. Not to much it shows always your style and it never looks cheap like others 🤭💝💝💝

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

@@danielangom Thank you! That’s a very nice compliment!❤️

[@sabrinaparr8962]

I love the colors you use for the necklace. I order some from Bbb and can't wait to get mine. I been trying to get them from her every month. 😊

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

I know, they are a popular item, very hard for her to keep in stock. They take a long time to arrive to her after she orders them from China. I wish they were easier to get a hold of.

[@sylviafarley6824]

Hi Gina, I’m working on the necklace to match a bracelet I made similar to your necklace. I use the cuboid beads. Thank you for teaching us.😘🙏

[@auau870]

Thank you for your videos. But please speak slowly when performing the operation and the cam room is closer so everyone can see clearly. Should detail the size of each type of seed. Wish you good health.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

I do the best I can, I speak, how I speak, that probably won’t change. I zoom in very close, sometimes that effort to let everyone see close up results in my hands moving out of frame. I make the videos alone, for free, to the best of my ability. Until you make one yourself, and try to be a camera man while doing intricate work with very small beads, it is easy to be a critic.

[@cmchang1327]

Thank you for your detailed explanation , you are a wonderful teacher, and this is a simple and elegant project, I do have a question, If I use this method to do a bracelet, do I use 11/0 for both sides?

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

Yes, that should work great.

[@susanroberts]

Hi Gina I love this necklace. As always you did a fantastic job. You never cease to amaze me. Your nails look great! What’s the name of your nail polish? 💝🥰🤗

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

It’s black with silver magnetic polish on top of that and a transparent blue on top of that...I do not know names of the polish, I get my nails done professionally and the young man who does them always picks out my polish. He wanted to try this new method this time. It’s really cool the way the light reflects off this polish.

[@susanroberts]

Wow Gina! You tell him he’s doing a fantastic job! Oh wait! He might up his prices. 😹😹😹💝🥰

[@deniseharchuk885]

Do you think a wire guard would be ok to use? I wonder if it would detract from the look of the necklace.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

I think it would be fine.

[@marievalle1091]

Hi Gina Can I use Toho One-G beading thread for this project. I don’t have nanofil in my stash. Thank you.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

I think so, I have not used it before. Try it, if the beads get too tight you will know it won’t work, but if you are able to pass through the beads easily, it will be fine

[@marievalle1091]

Thank you

[@katheerostron3538]

I love this necklace however cannot find the cuboid bead anywhere here in Canada. Will it lay just as flat if I use the bicone bead?

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

No, I don’t think so, try a4mm Firepolish bead, that will work. You can find some very beautiful Firepolish beads.

[@jackieagdeppa5434]

Love this necklace. I would like to know how would this work with bicones? I have a bracelet I made with bicone and would love to match it with this necklace.

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

You can try it,it probably will not lay or look the same. But you may be able to modify the stitch to make it work. The cuboid or Firepolish beads are a better shape for this design.

[@jackieagdeppa5434]

Question - is the fireline the thread or wire? I have 7 strand wire and nymo size B would either work?

[@GGCBeginningbeaders]

The Nymo may work fine, the wire will not. Fireline or Nanofil is more of a thread. It is a braided fishing line, very fine and strong.
