Oh gosh I just love you too pieces. I was smiling so big hearing you sing rolling rolling rolling. I love making beads. They are so easy and so satisfying. I have been binge watching your videos and they skip from recent videos to year ago but I love every single one. You are such a delight to listen to. Thanks for always sharing and inspiring my sweet friend

omg! Never have I ever seen such a paper beadaloosa!!!!! Whoa!!!!! Incredible! I can't comment everything I want to, but if I have to boil it down, I want to say how much I love the chunky pastel baby wipe ones! They look like Easter eggs! I still have some of my painty kitchen towel...guess who will make a few today??????

Beautiful beads in all shapes and sizes! Those beads from coffee- and tea-dyed papers look really cool! Vintage-like. I hope you're staying safe and healthy! I, too, have had really restful sleeps, probably because my early-morning classes are now online and I can sleep in. lol

You had me laughing about the Beano beads! Yes, very different meaning over here, your beads are lovely, great job!

[@BettsyDoodle]

[@josiegitto8928]

beautiful beads Dee ,I made them wih baby wipes too ,I find the best coating is thick embossing powder ,tfs

[@BettsyDoodle]

Thanks very much Josie. It was you who inspired me to make the baby wipe ones! Sorry I forgot to mention it in this video but I did mention it in my other bead video. Tfw.Hugs,Dee xox

[@JeanneBaney]

The beads are absolutely amazing, I just love the feel and sound of them! And of course the colors are fabulous. I’ve never made any yet, But I plan to someday. I have plenty of nail varnish to cover them! As always your videos are a delight and help keep my spirits up! Glad you had a nice time with Mr. Doodle home! Stay safe!

[@BettsyDoodle]

Hello Jeanne, thank you for your lovely comment. Oooh I hope you do have a go at making beads as they're great fun and relaxing to do. Tfw. Hugs,Dee xox

[@norajean2454]

I use a wood sealer. Put a knot in fishing line with one bead to end. Then string beads on and hang from clothes pin and let them drip dry. When dry pop apart.

[@BettsyDoodle]

Oh that sounds a good idea! I might try it some time :o) Tfw.Hugs,Dee xox

[@mrsdsdesk]

I’ve been rolling with and without the skewer- took a few tries to get the hang of it but I’m going smooth now. Yours are much bigger than mine- I’m going to have a try and getting mine bigger. I like the look of it more. Great method for sealing as well. I’ll most likely be borrowing that idea too! Glad to hear you’re sleeping better- sitting in the sun is yet another brilliant thought of yours that I will have to utilize as my insomnia is also building. TFS and 💕 u 2!

[@BettsyDoodle]

Yayyyy! Glad you've been making some beads. Fun isn't it? Have you tried rolling 2 pieces together to make them bigger? Also, different papers make a difference. Wallpaper makes bigger beads. I'm sure you'll work it out :o) I hope your insomnia improves soon! Tfw. Hugs,Dee xox

[@woollysteph]

Your beads are beautiful. Absolutely stunning! I love them so much. I was wondering how I was going to keep them separate whilst I put their glossy jackets on lol. Now I see your cocktail stick method looks super effective. I will try this once I've made a few more beads. Thanks for sharing. Hugs xx💗

[@Pooky-Cat]

Hi Steph, if you haven't got a bit of polystyrene to stick them in try an upturned tissue box - works for me Pam x

[@woollysteph]

@@Pooky-Cat Pam, that's a great idea. Thank you 💗

[@BettsyDoodle]

Thanks very much,Steph. I love making them. I'm sure you'll find a way that works for you to varnish them. Tfw.Hugs,Dee xxx

[@BettsyDoodle]

....I wonder if an upturned hubby would work? haha I'll ask Mr D lol

[@purplenanna1272]

Wow!… no wonder you have been missing in action 😂.Thought you were probably having a Easter break 😁,but obviously must be permanently bead rolling 😂.Really love the look of them,but will I make any.....mmmmm....fiddly 😂.Can you send some sleeping dust my way please....my sleeping is worse than ever! Hugs xxx

[@BettsyDoodle]

Hahaha! Yes, permanently rolling! You know what I'm like when I get the bug for something! Lol. Awww sorry your sleeping is worse than ever. Tfw.Hugs,Dee xx

Hello Dee, did you enjoy me singing the chorus to the Rawhide song? 😉Love these beads, do you think you will ever get around to using them?

[@BettsyDoodle]

Hahaha! Yes, I enjoyed that thanks! lol. As for using the beads...I thought I'd keep them to learn counting with! Haha. Tfw.Hugs,Dee xox

[@hazelblair6634]

please can you tell me, is the Polyvine Acrylic varnish this enough for dipping the bead from a line. Thank you.

[@BettsyDoodle]

I’ve never tried doing it that way so I’m not sure. Sorry I can’t be more helpful. Thank you for watching. 🙏
