As an adult with ADHD, I appreciate these tips and often find myself having to pre plan before I go near my bead closet to avoid being overwhelmed. I start by finding a color that im already interested in and then I tried your tips! Thanks for sharing :)

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Yay! So glad you found these tips helpful! 💖

[@cubbibear4635]

Thank you Leah! Finally, someone who could explain this color choosing stuff without pulling out color wheels. I still don't really understand how to use those things. Thanks again!😸🙃😁

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad you enjoyed the video!!! If you're still curious about using color, check out a blog I did on color theory (and, yes, the color wheel LOL!) and perhaps the way I've laid it out may help you understand it? :-) eurekacrystalbeadsblog.com/2018/03/14/the-color-doctor-is-in/ -Leah Come join the fun!

You have a natural gift of good taste my dear.

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Thank you so much 😊

[@susanpicken6874]

Wonderful information on colors. Thanks, Leah

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad you liked it!

[@galemckiddy5120]

Great idea to start with the iridescent color!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@josephjones9372]

Even though I'm a Graphic Designer and fine artist, I have always had a hard time choosing color ways. You are spot on! It's like decorating a room. Start with a rug that has many colors or something that's your favorite piece and pull in colors from them. Great video!!!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Wonderful!

[@gladysrojas4466]

I would of never thought of putting those colors together, they look great. Thank you!😊

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad you liked the combos, Gladys!! -Leah Come join the fun! The Beader's Nook at Eureka Crystal Beads facebook.com/groups/319085948930672/

[@sue7777]

Thanks, Leah, for the great tips on selecting color combos. I will definitely try your suggestions in the future.

[@amandamadison3050]

Thanks for the great tip!!! I have some many varieties of the "iridescent" seed beads and I have had a hard time trying to pull them together in a project with matching colors. I love adding that pop bead into my work, it just makes it that much more interesting!!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

You're very welcome, Amanda!! :-) Pop colors are my fave.... -Leah Come join the fun! The Beader's Nook at Eureka Crystal Beads facebook.com/groups/319085948930672/

[@sueellens]

This is so helpful. Thank you, Leah. My bead supply is getting more varied and I’m finding lots of colors that I never would’ve thought would go well together. For example nutmeg with a mauve with a dark purple. Sometimes I forget about really going bright with accents with some of the AB, iris, or other metallic finishes. So fun!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad you liked it, SueEllen!! :-) :-) :-)

[@kathyberger6650]

Oh wow, what a great informative video!!! Thanks so much! ❤️

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

You are so welcome!

[@SparkleByMonica]

Love the tip about the matte bead with the iridescent color. Sparkle on!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad we could provide some good tips! Thanks for watching!

[@jeanbaker-haynes2307]

Great information. I have trouble putting colors together. Now I understand how to make a great color combination. Thank you for sharing.

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Thanks Jean! Glad it's useful for you! 💓

[@denisebriggs2886]

I love the way you explain things step by step and your tips are great, Thank you! I'm so happy I subscribed to your channel. One of the best by far!!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

She is very talented!

[@kymberlydawn1445]

Thanks!! Extremely informative! I tend to throw too many different color beads together and of course, the colors get lost and end up looking muddy...sticking with just 3 colors really helps!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad you liked the video, Kymberly! I agree, too many colors = muddy, for sure. Sometimes less is more. :-) -Leah Come join the fun! The Beader's Nook at Eureka Crystal Beads facebook.com/groups/319085948930672/

[@luckysuzful]

[@jeanneschmidt491]

Great tips! I especially love the second and third color combinations. I wish I could see the beads outside the shiny packaging, though. I like it when you pour some into a triangle in order to see it better. Thanks, Leah!

[@leahwyckoff3402]

Jeanne Schmidt ...Oh Jeanne - you are so so right!!! 😖😖😖

[@nancyheath2891]

I have trouble mixing seedbead colors. Thank you so much for the suggestions.

[@MaggyShannon]

This is the best explanation I've heard. Thank you!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@TammiYoung123]

The Toho beads in the tube (coloway #2) are my FAVORITE beads to use. They are an amazing color - so versatile. Adore your tips. Thank you!!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad you enjoyed the video, Tammi!! :-) -Leah Come join the fun! The Beader's Nook at Eureka Crystal Beads facebook.com/groups/319085948930672/

[@BeadingBrigade]

Love that cranberry color and it looks amazing with the other two as well. Shared with my group. Thanks!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Thanks so much!

[@beckya9830]

Thank you so much for putting the colors used in the description box! 😬

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

You're very welcome!! The video didn't do them justice - totally my bad for leaving them in the baggies :-( They are super fun in person. -Leah Come join the fun! The Beader's Nook at Eureka Crystal Beads facebook.com/groups/319085948930672/

Thank you. This was very helpful.

[@KT-rl1dy]

Thank you for this help. It is very appreciated.

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

You're very welcome!

[@Puchi630]

Wonderful tip... I usually pick my colors by my surroundings... From the beach I'll choose the sand, water and sky... Depending on the horizon color... As well as if I'm at the park, the color of the trees, bark and sky... This tip actually helps me even more... Thank you...

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Wonderful, Sonia!! :-) I'm glad you liked it!! -Leah Come join the fun! The Beader's Nook at Eureka Crystal Beads facebook.com/groups/319085948930672/

[@rachelletotsonii4930]

I'm glad to hear that I am not the only one who has problems choosing colors. Whew! Generally speaking, it's hard to choose the right beads when shopping. I usually start with my focal bead(s) then try to work others in. I'm going to try reversing that. Thanks for the tip.

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Glad you enjoyed the video, Rachelle! :-) Picking colors is the toughest part for most beaders, I find!! -Leah Come join the fun! The Beader's Nook at Eureka Crystal Beads facebook.com/groups/319085948930672/

[@loriturner60]

Thank you for your guidance, but could you show a project with your selections when you work these combos… it will really bring it all together for me at least.

[@durindaau8085]

I love all these palettes. Can you show some finished pieces? Or some partially done patterns? WOW not sure I could have put these combos together, but I sure do like them.

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Check out some of our other video projects - Leah uses these principles for all her designs! 💕

[@jenniferteribury5692]

I've been told I have a talent for picking out colors 😉

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

LOL! ;-)

[@sian2337]

This is really helpful and I love those combinations. Do you have any colour tips for someone who is wanting to start making little things with brick stitch or peyote stitch? I’ve been playing around with cheap craft-shop seed beads (which aren’t uniform size so look a bit messy), but I got vouchers for my birthday so I can order some Miyuki Delicas. Apart from gold, silver and an off-white colour, I have no idea what other colours to start with. There’s just so much choice and there are no decent bead shops near me to get ideas. Any advice would be wonderful.

[@leahwyckoff4791]

My biggest piece of advice is - don't over think it. :-) You say you have no idea what colors to start with...What do you like? Perhaps consider taking a gold / silver / off-white (NEUTRAL) type palette and adding one new colors to start... If you're starting with a neutral, pretty much anything goes! Gold / Silver / off-white and..... BLUE? Or GREEN? Anything! :-) Another approach is to look at a piece of clothing you have that you like and pull out some of the colors from it - that's a guaranteed winner. Good luck!

[@beautyandthebeads5381]

Awesome! Very informative video. Thank you for the helpful tips. Where can I buy these kind of beads? pls help me. I want to try, i think it's fun. 😊

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

You can get everything in this video here: www.eurekacrystalbeads.com/ Click to expand the video description below for links to all the specific colors!

[@MorriganSlayde]

Can you do/have you done a version of this video where someone prefers matte beads? I absolutely adore my various matte beads and don't want to always match to a varigrated/multicoloured/shiny selection

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

We don't have anything like that right now but thanks for the idea! We will look into making a video like that. Happy New Year! 😍

[@MorriganSlayde]

@@EurekaCrystalBeads So nice of you to take a suggestion on an old video! If you don't its fine but I would be thrilled to see colour matching of matte beads. I have used this video a few times though and found my colour matching has improved greatly!

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Yay! We're so glad we can help with that!

[@nikorm2061]

Que bonito material donde lo puedo conseguir

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

¡Gracias! Aquí hay un enlace a todos los materiales utilizados para hacer este collar 💓 www.eurekacrystalbeads.com/crystal-birthstone-necklace/

[@sandrapudoff]

Good video that could be great if the glare of the plastic wasn't there

[@EurekaCrystalBeads]

Thanks for your feedback!

[@ladyashk]

Actually this doesn't help at all. You've already selected the colours and showing it to us. Try showing a bead shop with a hundred colours and then picking up things

[@leahwyckoff4791]

Hi Lady Ashk, I'm sorry you didn't find this video helpful. Yes, I did show colors that I had already selected, but I explained the TECHNIQUE for HOW I chose them - the point of this video was to be a quick tip on how that was done and how it can be repeated in theory. That same technique that I explained can be applied to YOUR next trip to the bead shop or your next time browsing colors online. :-) Good luck!
