Late Night Beading with Beki: making a simple chip bead necklace with the Peach Sorbet BBB

[@msharno1]

Now for a tip on Xuron crimper…I always put the sharp point up so the crimp sits in the divot, then push down. Then I go to 2nd space to fold & 1st space to tighten

[@BekitoBurrito]

You have such good tips for using the Xuron, I'm going to pin this comment because it will be helpful for others.

Hey Beki! Yes I’m a night owl for sure! Beading late at night into the am is so quiet, I can hear my brain think! Lol yes strawberry and green ! Ugh, so pretty together! Your funny “nuggets “. I like Coreana chain, I had made shoulder dusters with them using the gold. No chicken nuggets for me! “A golden nugget” lol 😅😅simple yes, but your necklace and earrings are so pretty! Your friend in NJ! 🥰

Hi Becki. Hey when I saw this box, and idea came to me. Using your chain and putting the long link of shells in the middle as a focal point then adding shell beads then garnets . Then some leaves here and there. Then earrings the same way or a bracelet. ❤❤❤❤ live what your doing. I can't afford the bead box but I like to watch you create. I have so many ideas wish I could afford it.

[@BekitoBurrito]

That sounds like such a fantastic idea!

Love the necklace. My favorite nugget is a gold nugget.

[@BekitoBurrito]

Solid choice!

I too am a late night beader. Usually don't start until 10 or 11pm, then up until 2 or 3am! This happens because I tell myself I'm going to bead that day and can never get to it! I'm also known to wake up and just stand by a bead mat and design in the middle of the night. Whatever works I guess.😊 Beautiful necklace....great use of the chips!

[@BekitoBurrito]

Thank you Dana! I just did another late night beading video tonight, if you're still up!

[@lauramiller6106]

Thank you.

[@BekitoBurrito]

You're welcome!

I love the zuron crimper. I have had zero trouble with any crimps in the last month since I got mine.

[@BekitoBurrito]

I think I just need to use mine more so I can get the hang of it!

[@SAstonFamily]

I might just have to copy this design. FYI, I love a slap happy Beki!! 😁📿🫶🏻

[@BekitoBurrito]

Please do!

[@SallyinStPaul]

Mmmm chicken nugget. Very very pretty necklace!

[@BekitoBurrito]

Thank you!

[@cydbay1]

No chicken nuggets. Yuck. Love you ND your tutorials.

[@msharno1]

For next time…when the crimp is going into a clamshell, I just smash it flat. There’s enough room in the shell to close it, plus it makes sure it stays in it rather than slipping out if the whole is a tad bigger

[@SallyinStPaul]

I agree that flat crimping into a clamshell works great and is very easy.

[@pattyspencer7795]

I agree.... I just do a flat crimp - clip any excess wire so it doesn't go past the shell and pull the clam shell over and close it ....if you're worried about it slipping out you can just add a touch of gel glue

[@msharno1]

I like grilled tenders…too much breading not enough meat on those nuggets!
