[@ShoryoTombo]

Now THIS is how you do tutorial. I know it's several years old but still, it's still the best!

[@joeynarciso94]

Agreed! No chitty-chat!! This presenter is great. She's all business, very succinct.

[@hannahobrochta]

Don’t feel bad I’m watching it now after 10 years

[@lenhmoore9546]

Thank you for the tutorial, super teacher, you're very thorough... given clear instructions, descriptions, & preventive measures. Will begin my 1st project soon, just need to watch a few more videos to purchase the proper tools.

[@carolfowler7637]

You are so thorough when you describe each step! Very nice tutorial!!😊

[@krk6216]

I have been looking for a tutorial on how to do this exactly. Thank you for making this,

[@sangeetasanghvi6801]

This is the best tutorial I have seen for beginners like me. So very descriptive, precise, it doesn't leave any doubts. Thank you so much Emily.

[@mariabooth8104]

What an awesome video tutorial! It's truly an oldie but goodie. You're so clear with your instructions and I'm glad I came upon it because I will be making several of these necklaces. The thread helps them to drape nicely. I may even try it on some bracelets. Thanks again! ❤💕💞

[@chasingpaint0702]

Thank you for this instruction. It was exactly what I needed to restring an old necklace. I didn't know what the "bead tip" was called so I didn't know what to look for but I do now thanks to your concise video.

[@SuzanneMcDerrmott]

You're a very good teacher! The timbre of your voice and encouraging commentary are a major plus. Thanks!

[@nadiaburtniak4441]

Wow, I don't normally comment on tutorial videos unless they are phenomenal... and yours certainly is! You really are a terrific teacher and I am SO glad I found your channel. Thank you for giving me the confidence I need to create necklaces and restring some broken ones I've been meaning to get to.

[@pattimurphyrocks]

Hands down, the best, clearest demonstration ever! Would love to see one with knotting between beads!

[@lindagale4277]

so would I

[@teamsonnamabead8778]

Learned one thing from this video. Use that needle thing to thightly secure a knot. I always have a hard time doing that. Will apply that on my next stringing video. Thanks for this. Liked and subscribed.

[@exploreworldtravelandnatur2641]

Oh my God, this is one of the best tutorials I have ever seen, absolutely amazing and just perfect. It's just unbelievable how through it is.. Thanks so much

[@claraepstein3017]

This is the first time I see one of these tutorial and I agree, this is the best tutorial I've seen.

[@dinaramadan3416]

I never thought i would like watching this. I just came upon the video. I have no intention of making necklaces and have no experience but I liked this.

[@ladysienna2000]

Thank you so much for posting this video, it's the best I have seen on beading a necklace!

[@Fr15b33]

[@KhunMeg]

Though I've been beading for quite some time, this really clarified a couple of persnickety details for me. Thank you!

[@maribelalgarin9750]

You are a great teacher. Made it all seem easy. I just made my first necklace. Thank you.

[@marymoonism]

Doing some research along with just looking at what is interesting. Nice to see you and that you are still teaching. You are a great teacher. Miss the San Rafael store.

[@pameladumchus6405]

Thank you for posting this very east to follow video one of the best online instructions I've seen

[@MsMCovington]

Thank you so much! You are very precise! I enjoyed this very much. :) Yes, you are a wonderful teacher. I have my first class at my new job on Saturday, I was pretty shook up, now I feel at ease. Thank you again. :)

[@veronicatampus5461]

Glad to come across your channel. You are a very good teacher, you took your time to explain the process step by step. This tutorial is a great help for a beginner like me.

[@jeanbaker-haynes2307]

Wow! You are an amazing teacher. Very informative and detailed. Although I have been making jewelry for a while, you still provided tips to enhance the outcome of my jewelry. Thank you for sharing.

[@hindawilliams3673]

This is a great video. I feel from this tutorial that I can easily string my broken jewelry back together.

[@danielleprickett3025]

I love love love your tutorial!! I had a hard time remembering how to use my bead tips recently and I was searching for a tutorial online, but I called them clamshells in my search. I didn't find a good tutorial as good as yours and I also didn't know that clamshells can also be called bead tips. One thing I might do when I try making this necklace is that I will try knotting in between each bead. Thank you so much for your help!!

[@lmolarissa]

As so many others have written, you are a fabulous, clear, easy to understand instructor. It's the best video I've seen on stringing a semi-precious stone necklace. Thank you!

[@nancysmith5630]

Incredibly helpful. Running out for clamshells now! Who knew. So helpful, thnx 🇨🇦❤️

[@joycegilley6601]

This was the exact tutorial I needed! I was gifted a not too expensive shell necklace years ago and it's one of my favorites. It needs to be restrung as it's become too small for my neck. (my bad!) I'm so happy to know I can use thread and how to go about it! It was strung with thread and I have only beaded with wire and it doesn't lay well with shells when I've tried. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

[@DON-qx2ik]

Excelliant video. Again, learning valuable information from beading experts. Thank you for sharing so many valuable methods of beading for those of us just beginning. That trick with the awl getting the knot close to the bead was amazing!!! Fumbling around with my clunky fingers was making a giant mess with knots. I can't wait to try the awl method. Thanks again. Great Video.

[@renecsalinas]

[@reneepaiz9574]

Great Job!!

[@anasterling]

Thanks for the tutorial. very informative. My question is how to finish the other end of a silk cord on a barrel clasp with a tiny whole in the middle leaving no gaps of extra space in between pearl beads.

[@lavioletmartin8673]

Lovely tutorial

[@sallystirnkorb10]

Thank you for a easy tutorial for a beginner--me!

[@helen4997]

I loved your tutorial and "I liked and sub." You are a great teacher. What would you charge for a necklace like this?

[@Elizren]

Great tutorial, what size is your bead tip you're using here and what size do you most use?

[@joseescobedo7899]

I like that wall of necklaces

[@macletaclark674]

Great instruction.

[@chrisbruno1571]

This is a very good tutorial. Thank you for making it so understandable. My only comment is about the thread. Is there a gauge or size that you should use. It has been my experience as a beginner and watching different videos that most people do not spend enough time on the threading material. I have found while bumbling through trying to make something that the thread/wire that is used makes all the difference in how the piece turns out. it would be most helpful, to me at least, if a little more time was spent on the size/gauge of the stringing material. Maybe those who have been doing it for a long time just assume we might know, but I personally do not. Thank you again. This is a terrific tutorial.

[@annieharris1728]

What a useful video. Thank you. Which thread are you using AND would it be strong enough for a beaded necklace carrying a central glass pendant?

[@ShoryoTombo]

I was wondering how you know the size of the thread for the bead you are working on. Is there a chart to compare with from size 8mm bead to the size of the nylon thread? Another question is, does the nylon thread fray in time or do you just knot the thread between the beads to prevent it from fraying? Love this tutorial!

[@kamalmonga142]

Good teacher

[@cynthiakelly9621]

Very Nice Thank You

[@judithlafeir6025]

Great thanks

[@denise4646crn50]

THANK YOU

[@mariaceballos8564]

Thank you

[@pinkblackbrown]

Perfection

[@judithpierce8396]

Why would you use a thread, versus a wire (or fireline, etc,) when beading these larger beads? I understand that thread works when you are knotting between the beads. But what about when you don't? Thanks!

[@SoftFlexCompany]

There are no hard rules when stringing your jewelry. You should design with the mediums and beads that make you happy. I assume she used a thread for this design because she prefers the drape of the thread.

[@elizabethkeller1228]

Can you use the leftover string? How do you use Silk Thread if the Needle Tip has come off?

[@gaelewis6623]

Where did you get your threading string?
