Thanks Andrea! We miss our live tutorials too, we plan to start them up again once the pandemic is over. Take care!

I have closed hoop earrings can I use them for the project please ? I just found this video , thank you so much for sharing

[@beadaholique]

Yes you can use this technique to embellish just about any sort of hoop or ring, anything circular at all really. What we've done in the past with closed hoops is to sew a jump ring into the beads at the top of the hoop and then attach an earring hook to that. You can see an example of that technique in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6Sum6eHjp53gZY

What does it look like head on? Is there a line of thread down the front?

[@onetwstdngel]

Great explanation! I think I could actually do this! 😁

[@beadaholique]

You totally can! It's delicate work but not difficult work.

[@LindaArellano-zx5lh]

Are you using single or double thread?😊

[@beadaholique]

It's a single thread

[@Mstootsie2020]

Is it normal for your beads to be able to rotate forward or back if you bump them? Or are they supposed to be stiff?

[@beadaholique]

There can be some rotation, especially as you are working them into place. Even after you are finished, there can be a little twisting but they should be fairly stable where they are. It could be that you need to pull your threads a little tighter as you do your weaving to make them a little stiffer or perhaps you need a little heavier thread. I hope this helps.

[@triztrizho5012]

What thread are you using? Thanks.

[@beadaholique]

The thread is Nymo, size D. Here is a link: beadaholique.com/collections/beading-thread-needles?_=pf&pf_v_brand=Nymo&pf_t_size=0-Size%3ASize%20D

[@mariaaguilera4987]

When you thread the nymo through the needle, how much do you pull through? Do you pull it through and tie it onto the needle or do you pull through enough to have a long tail and just hold onto while passing through the hoop? Thanks! Beginner here on beading :)

[@beadaholique]

I would just pull enough through to tie the knot and leave tail of about 8 inches. It helps to stabilize the piece and you can just tie it off and cut it off at the end.

[@raffinataonline]

I have a question. When adding additional rows, how do you keep them from flopping over? Nice vid.

[@summeradams971]

This was a perfect video

Thank you!

I want to try this AND add a pearl dangle from the middle of the bottom. HELP?!

This style of hook we buy pre-made, it's difficult to make a small hinge like that beadaholique.com/products/leverback-earring-hoop-73-5mm-2-pairs-silver-plated

Can you please make a tutorial to make a watermelon hoop eareing by stitching with beads

[@beadaholique]

That's a cute idea thanks! I'll pass your suggestion to Kat and we'll see if she comes up with anything!

[@sydneywhitfield7497]

Can you do a tutorial on how to add on another row?

[@beadaholique]

Hi Sydney, you can see our video here for how to add the second row: beadaholique.com/products/how-to-bead-weave-circular-brick-stitch-around-a-ring Basically, you will be treating the thread bridges in the first row as your "hoop". It works the same as this kit/video: beadaholique.com/collections/jewelry-making-kits/products/fresca-beaded-fringe-earrings-in-icicle-dreams-exclusive-beadaholique-jewelry-kit

[@TreeLynnT]

Awesome!!

[@sydoniacreppel58]

My beads always slide back and forth after I’m done. How can I stop that ?

[@beadaholique]

That can happen with a rounded hoop like this one. You can also try a flatter hoop if this bothers you as you wear them. We don't have any flat hoops in a similar size but this sort of shape would be what you want: beadaholique.com/products/beadalon-silver-plated-quick-links-25mm-round-18-pcs

[@velhotaperigosa]

Same here. I was thinking about add some glue (small quantity ofc) between the hoop and the beads. Have you tried that? Do you think that it will work Beadaholique?

[@velhotaperigosa]

Btw, really nice tutorial. Thank you!

[@beadaholique]

​@@velhotaperigosa Glue can absolutely help here if you're patient. I would suggest using something with a very fine applicator like G S Hypo Cement. Even with that applicator it's going to be a bit messy, but that's ok, because G S Hypo is alcohol soluble. Meaning once you've finished applying it all you can go back with a alcohol wipe and remove any excess from the rings.

[@emmagebadi3987]

Perfect tutorial, but try and to learn to zoom in so we can see the project better ,it's too far away.

[@beadaholique]

Sorry about the lack of close ups, we shot many of our 2020-21 video while working from home and had to make to with some home office limitations. We're back shooting videos in our studio these days and it's very nice to have our zoom lens back.
