One of the best instructional and demos I have seen. Looking forward to seeing more of your work. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@GinasGemCreations]

Thank you, that is a great compliment! I will posting something new soon!

[@melodymadry4707]

Those are absolute show stoppers Gina girl!!! I love them. Great job!

[@GinasGemCreations]

Thank YOU! I am flattered!

[@TheSilverLdy]

Very beautiful, I also like the way you teach. You keep everything in frame most of the time plus you zoom in and out so we can see what you're talking about. Thank you for a great tutorial. Now I just have to go through my bead stash and find the beads to make these and the necklace.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Thank you! I appreciate the very kind feedback! It is difficult to stay in frame, I have learned to glance up at the camera often t see if I am in frame. It's easy to get involved in the beading and forget to look and see where your hands are. I hope you find beads in stash to make these and the necklace, they are fun to make.

[@shobana966]

Beautiful pair of earrings. Excellent tutorial. You're a good teacher Gina.

Not only is your work beautiful, elegant and amazing, your tutorial is very clear. You knew exactly when to zoom in and out so we could see what you were doing. That couldn't have been easy; but it is very much appreciated. I am waiting to receive a pair of magnifying lighted glasses so I can see to work better with seed beads. Then I will attempt to make this project. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work. :-)

[@GinasGemCreations]

Yes Peggy, to increase the length, just make more of the short units of netting, but make sure to do the same amount of short netting units on both sides of the necklace. Of course you could make more of the longer units too but it is easiest to keep it even by adding more to the ends.

Gina!! Again another amazing tutorial that's so easy to understand and follow. Also great stunning pair of earrings to match the set. I always spend hours choosing my color combos. (Especially since I always have 2 colorways then I pick out the 1 I like best. Almost done with choosing the colors for both combos. I don't know if it takes alot of time for you to come up with color combos but I've always been told I have an eye for color. So do you btw cuz everything you've done are just beautiful combos. Keep the tutorials coming. I love you and your creations. I also appreciate your hardwork you do to put these superb tuts. Together. Much love your new friend Melissa Doucette from Florida

[@thebelissima64]

Gina, I simply love this necklace. Thanks so much for the tutorial. It's a statement necklace and so 'in' right now. The design reminds me of the Zara necklace the Duchess of Cambridge wore to the Mandela movie premiere in London. I'm going to splurge and make myself one with crystal AB Swarovskis :) Can't wait!

It looks difficult but at the same time you have described it to sound easy! I actually feel like i could accomplish this :) Currently my seed beads are a mixture of colors and i need a beading needle. But as soon as i make a trip for supplies it will be my goal to make this set!!! Thank you for sharing!! P.S love the name!!

[@mike1968442]

Hi Gina, I love this set. I made the bracelet for some friends at Christmas 2014. Anyway I added an 8* bead to the center of the large middle ring so that I could have something to attach the center point dangle below too. But then while watching just now I was thinking about adding eye points so that the dangles would have more movement. Use maybe soldered shut eye pins...just a thought. Beautiful

[@GinasGemCreations]

Very good ideas! I love when ideas just keep coming! I am happy this piece inspires you!

[@lindamcdonald3151]

i hope i can get a answer on these earings .i made them looked great bout they fold inward ,like there is no stiffness.i use 8 lb fireline

Gina's Gem Creations gina my teacher, l am indead new. I started almost 5 months ago but l got addicted at first creation. Just like love at the first sight ha ha ha men my first creation was a herringbone spiral necklace. It was sooooo easy and it turned out amazing so l started buyng first small seadbeads size 11/0,15/0, 9/0, 8/0 delicas. only small beads. I dont have a job at this moment witch means that l haven t got much money. Every time l went buyng some sizes and colors. Every time 20 euros, 10, 15 and so on. and l ve been learning a lot whit my mini beads.every day. I am subscriber in many channels. In many languages, l watch videos in italian,spanish,inglish,russian,turkish,african,indian , germany, portugues, romenia and some others that l have NO IDEA WHAT FOR LANGUAGE IT IS. One thing l know..thanks God and the youtube l can make any project that l want. I know allmost all stitchs inclusive increase and decrease when need. All the spirals, also l can bezel cabochons,eyeballs,buttons. I can make rings,beaded togles. I can learn very easy, .today l ve done a twisted cube bracelet whit mini bugles and 15/0 seadbeas.beaded clasp, IT LOOKS SOOO LOVELY. I can make pretty things allready.lm m loking out to buy bigger beads and bicones to make some projects from you and others. I m full of ideas but l need beads,ha ha ha.last week l have bought superduos,farfales,.drops for the first time l was so happy. Specially whit the superduos and the drops, l couldn t stop loking at them. They are so beautifull. My husband was loughing me out. He said that l am addicted to beads. I AM. AND I M NOT GOING TO REHEB.ha ha ha. Beijos bela

[@lindamcdonald3151]

can i replace the wire protecter with just puting seed beads on instead .also i have the hook can i use it instead of the clasp you have there

[@rainbowmocasin1]

This is one of the best beading tutorials ive ever seen . People never zoom in close enough for you to see fine detail they talk very fast or they just dont start at the beginning . Im new to beading , how do you tie the tail of beading thread ?

[@GinasGemCreations]

rainbowmocasin1Thank you for the compliment. you do not tie the tail of beading thread, as you would sewing thread. if you need a stop at the end, you thread on a bead, and go back through it. This becomes the stop. when you finish a thread or project you remove the bead and tie half hitch knots and sew through beads until the work is secure and then cut of the thread.

[@kalpalathathiyagarajan2208]

Hi Gina, I just made the necklace and earrings using hematite beads with silver seed beads and a pink accent 8o bead:) and had a great time doing it. My earrings came out well but they sort of curve in and dont retain the fan shape. Please please give me suggestions on how to achieve the shape. I really love the design and plan on doing more in different combinations.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Yes, this is an old tutorial, love the earrings but didn’t try to wear them until after I posted them. They do fold. I have always thought I should remake the video and redesign them, thanks for reminding me. I think I will do that soon!

[@melissadoucette278]

Hi I had an idea that might stop the earrings from flopping. It's to embellish the back as well. This might help to stiffen it up. I haven't tried to make these yet but I'm getting my supplies together for it. Just a thought. I don't know if this would help or not. Sincerely Melissa Doucette

[@jeanne1765]

I enjoyed making the earrings. I only had 4 lb Fireline and 10 lb Wild Fire. I made one with the 4 lb Fireline and went back through the beads several times to make it more solid. The 2nd earring I made with the 10 lb Wild Fire. The 11/0 beads kept breaking. I went through the beads again with the 4 lb Fireline to strengthen it. The problem I am having is that both earrings keep curling when I wear them. Can you tell me what I did wrong or what I can do to keep them straight and more solid?

[@GinasGemCreations]

No, you didn't do it wrong, mine curl slightly too. Use a little spray starch or dip them on liquid starch then after they dry use a damp cloth to lightly clean up the beads. Some people use floor shiners like "Future" to stiffen bead work. But i think that would make the crystals dull. It is the fan design that makes it curl. I should have worn them more before making the tutorial. I hung them on the model and they worked great, but on a human i think motion and body heat cause them to curl some. But starching should help.

[@jeanne1765]

Thanks Gina. I'll give it a try.

if you wanted this a little longer (necklace) would you increase the pattern

[@constancehutt6525]

Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've tried this pattern twice & haven't gotten all the way through without breaking an 11.0 seed bead. Using 8lb. clear bead line & the finest needles in my pack #10, 11 & 12 bead needles. Would love some Help.! 🤪🤨😏

[@1015SaturdayNight]

Constance Hutt What brand of seed beads are you using? Toho is a bit bigger than Miyuki. Maybe you have slightly smaller seed beads? Is it the area where you have to go across the top over and over? That does get tight.

[@1015SaturdayNight]

You could also try agsin with 6 lb Fireline maybe, or even One-G or Nymo

[@jananikumar4929]

8/0 what color u used and also 11/0 color u used

[@snapsue]

I used 6 lb and did it all just the way you did .. this is rather floppy. the earrings fold in half and dont stay stiff and fanned out.. How come.?

[@GinasGemCreations]

+Suzanne dos Passos it's a design flaw, I didn't wear them before posting the video...I wish I had. You can stiffen them with spray starch.

[@nickyprice7385]

How do you keep the lace earrings from being floppy?

[@GinasGemCreations]

Nicki, I need to revisit this design. Sometimes they stand well sometimes they curl. Darn it! I should have worn them more befor posting this tutorial. You can stach them. Dip them in liquid starch, let them dry and wipe them off with a slightly damp cloth, or use spray starch.

[@snapsue]

I never heard of such a thing. soak in starch.. I think you need to take the video down and redo it.. as these wont work.. they are to wide and to floppy as they are. I wasted time making one.

[@melissadoucette278]

@@GinasGemCreations hi Gina!! I was reading the comments about the earrings flopping around. What if we were to embellish the back of them as well. This might make them more sturdy. I'll have to see how mine come out. If they flop I'll try doing the back as I have plenty of firepolish or swarovski bicones to do this and still make the whole set. Just a thought. Don't know if this would help or not. Much love Melissa Doucette
