How-To Attach a Clasp To A Bracelet Or Necklace - Bead House at Burhouse Limited

[@livelovelaugh85]

This is the most clear tutorial/explanation I've seen so far when it comes to attaching a clasp!

[@WoRN808]

I'm not even being sarcastic. The first tip about the clip at the end of the wire was pure genius for me.

[@Vanessa47912]

Exactly!!! Because I was just about to go and buy bead stoppers, when I have plenty of those clips at home!!

[@Sapphirebluewho]

I was soo intimidated about adding the closures to my jewelry pieces… until this tutorial.. to the point with the tools I have.. thank you!

[@quadaehines4138]

This woman is magnificent I absolutely love her simplicity of explaining this video! ♥️

[@burhouselimited]

Wow, thank you!

[@southporttrading]

Thank you so much. This has helped me out tremendously. I could see everything you were doing and now I know how to use crimp covers.

[@burhouselimited]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ambarnicole7704]

I really like the video. I just have one more question. What kind of thread do I need for this type of closure?

[@kathleenmckenna8578]

I agree very good explanation and I could understand what was occurring on each end. Thx

[@SudaniMelanin]

Can you please list down the things ?

[@jenniferdellacalce5617]

Thank you.This is the most informative & easy to follow elastic bracelet making video I have seen on youtube.I am a beginner to making bracelets & your video really helped me.👍

[@Guyfawkes098]

Definitely the best I've seen too. I've been doing it differently, as per another tutorial, but this works much better, thank you so so much x

[@kristen8566]

This is NOT an elastic bracelet tutorial. You do not use a crimp on elastic as it will eventually cut thru it.

[@materialgirl1585]

@@kristen8566 Thanks for the tip. I was planning to use this tutorial for elastic thank god i found your comment.

[@theartisancompany]

I use clips too to hold beads while working. Great video. TFS

Good explanation I have had problems with my clasps breaking I like the threading idea through 2 or 3 beads.

To the point tutorial... love it and thank you!!!

[@erikadawnwyatt1104]

Cute bracelet ,... I just recently started making gemstone bracelets with elastic band, but I’m looking towards making something more sturdy and reliable. I think going with the wire & clasps is a better call & adds more class to the piece 😊

[@aoifecailin9399]

hello! there’s a pretty good chance you won’t see this but how did you close your elastic bracelets? did you just tie them off or use some sort of clasp? i want to make some necklaces and just tying it off won’t work well but i’ve only got access to elastic

[@erikadawnwyatt1104]

@@aoifecailin9399 I tide them off and added a bit of super glue for a stronger hold.

[@aoifecailin9399]

@@erikadawnwyatt1104 have you ever tried necklaces that way??

[@keeforever]

Hey, I made a few necklaces and the wire breaks after I attached the clasp to the jump ring. Do you think the wire isn’t strong enough to hold things together?

[@yazajag]

Thank you, this was very helpful. I use a flat metal hair clip or binder clip, both work pretty well. 💕

I think she's using the elastic cord its name is Crystal tec korea

It was beading wire available here www.burhousebeads.com/beading-supplies/beading-wire-thread/

What are the dimensions of the wire please?

Elastic

[@khandurrani534]

Hi Where can I buy the beeding wire with the locks. Thanks

[@meandi5956]

So is it true, that with a Crimp Tube you can simply flatten it with a chain nose plier if not with a crimping plier to make the crimp tubes shape? Its still secure being flattened? Because I heard it can chew the wire if not shaped with a crimping plier... please help x

[@burhouselimited]

Both ways work, the crimping will grasp the wire with either method. Its personal preference and beading wire is pretty hard to snap, i have never had an issue. I have seen crimping pliers not create a strong enough grip and the wire loosen though, so be careful to ensure properly crimped if using a specific tool. Sorry for the late reply too :)

[@ayoangie7099]

Made it so easy!!

[@burhouselimited]

thanks

[@pearl_saldanha]

Very helpful thank you ❤️

[@LinaPatton-u5t]

My question is what type of wiring is used for this because I have tried this method over and over and have the hardest time pulling the wire through the crimp beads without leaving huge spaces in-between beads?

Welcome!

[@iyaahn]

I have a design background by I have basic experience into jewellery making mostly for family and mostly for fun, I usually take apart existing items and learn that way. I wanted to make something special for my sister and she picked an item that I had sold out and she really want it. The problem with the item was I was inordinately expensive and it wasn't even silver or gold. So I said I'd make it for her using silk sterling silver and real gemstones I spent about £150 (on beads and findings and I get a necklace, bracelet have items left over for other projects) and it still less expensive than the bracelet she wanted. My sister doesn't really like me as a person she's very mean actually, I don't really know why but she likes the things I make she also likes to use and wear the things I make it's beyond me. This is a bit of a monologue I know you must probably don't care, however the technique you have show me is something I've been investigating and looking to have knowledge on for an inordinate amount of time. Thank you very much I really appreciate it x

Thank you for this. First time to see the crimp cover. What type of string did you use?

she just used a metal beading wire

[@alessiariveracalleja4129]

What type of beading wire do you recommend?

[@burhouselimited]

Our favourite is Beadalon 49 strand, but lower strand are fine too just may kink more, and 0.015 is a favourite gauge fits pearls and gemstones.

Better with wire, elastic will stretch and harder to attach to the other parts of the bracelet :)
