Very nice, I will be making these with my granddaughters tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.

[@TurboBeads]

Thank you again! Beads a much fun!

[@pinksexyon1837]

I noticed when you cut the strings of each set of beads that you do not use glue to ensure the knot will not come apart. Did you use a stretch type of string? Great video. Keep them coming.

[@TurboBeads]

Pink Sexyon18 you can always use glue to ensure your knots dont slip as well, always an option, i use a string called S'getti string a plastic round lace works great for all kinds of projects, yes it has some stretch to it. Thank you for the support and encouragement it means alot, i will most definitely continue to create! Hope yours turns out great! Thank you again for watching!

[@olliefischer]

ooh this looks cool! i buy bead soup from thrift stores, so i often end up with a lot of non-pony beads with unusual shapes that wouldn't work in peyote stitch/multi stitch based patterns, but i bet they would work great for this

did I just make one in honor of unus annus? yes, yes I did

[@SafeHavenCollective]

another easy to follow tutorial. my finished bracelet looks great until i try to put it on, then it loses a lot of the helix twist and just looks messy. Still happy to learn another pattern so thank you for sharing.

[@TurboBeads]

Depending on the string used results can vary, it works great when rolling it on the wrists

[@SafeHavenCollective]

@@TurboBeads thank you for replying. definitely am going to keep trying with this one, currently rolling it on the wrist seems to get it more messed up, but not giving up, the right combo is out there, just gotta find it. Keep up the great work ;)

[@GroundCTRL2MajorTom]

I love these tutorials and your voice! Stay awesome!

[@OneAwkwardTrashcan]

This tutorial helped me so much! I was intimidated at first because it looked so cool and dynamic, but it was actually really simple. Thank you!! I chose orange, black, and white

[@danikal1592]

I've tried making this bracelet twice and when I put it on it un loops and becomes 3 bracelets all connected, has anyone else had this problem?

[@TurboBeads]

This may depend on string possibly.

[@StrewthFroogals]

Yup this happened to me just now! :C I used cloth stretch cord from the dollar store.

[@swagmonster1609]

it happened to me and i can fix it by untwisting the bracelets a little, my string just twisted together too much.

[@Strikerobsessedbitch]

Yeah I think I may be making mine too big though so that may be the problem

[@Bestie_butterflybraclets-dc3tz]

I used the cloth covered one and it doesn't work

[@jacquiehosking1530]

Hi Justin. I made my bracelet in pink purple and clear pink. Thanks again for your tutorial

Hang in there hopefully your bracelet turns out exactly as it should, practice and patience things will work in your favor

[@TurboBeads]

mewsieworld awesome, I hope you are able to create the things you like, i know it will be great!

[@kikisdeliveryservice8601]

PLEASE USE A THICK STRING. i used a very small .03 probably, and the bare string gets wrapped around itself every time i wear it

[@TurboBeads]

Yes you are right, I agree a thick string absolutely works the best as it will retain the shape of the bracelet well! Thank you for this comment, Keeping everyone informed!

[@kikisdeliveryservice8601]

Justin Bennett :D thank you for the reply, as well as a wonderful tutorial ! i think i will try again with thicker cord :3

[@pchypie8801]

Of course it is a lot easier than it looks! It's a fun project for sure!

[@skinistasty7384]

I chose orange, pink, and white! like sunset :)

[@maizystar666]

cool but when I would try to loop them around each other the beads would keep coming off the string and it was mildly infuriating. Maybe I didn't use enough string but I don't have a lot of string to begin with.

[@Fallensuns_Shack]

This is a whole year late, but a trick I use is a binder clip. Just clip one on the end and they won't fall off! :)

[@fralinsandfriends]

We've been missing you lately so I thought I'd check on you. I know you and your wife have some new health challenges. I'd like to invite both of you to check and see some of the activities and discussions we're having. You can also suggest something that you'd like discussed better.

[@TurboBeads]

AKA G.K. Fralin thank you ill have an upload soon and be back in action, taking things 1 day at a time.

[@shlawgb0b]

can I use thin (0.7mm) clear elastic string? i saw in the comments ppl had issues with string and I cant figure out if the one I have will work

[@TurboBeads]

You may want to use thicker string.

[@babybunny3002]

I dont know what it is but I can't for the life me get mine to look like an actual spiral. I've tried so many times and I just get sad and make some singles to make myself feel better about myself lmao

[@TurboBeads]

Try using different string

[@Jenovalore4048]

I know this is a long shot but do you know how to make wings for a dragon?

[@R3n-g0r3]

My wrist takes up abt 28 beads, so should I use 30 for each then? :DD

[@xingcat]

That's really cool! It reminds me of a DNA model.

[@TurboBeads]

xingcat pretty close i see what you mean, there is a dna bead bracelet as well maybe i can make that one as well....

[@cankasaur]

i love this.

[@TurboBeads]

It's a great design indeed!

[@aubreycollier867]

do beads get caught on arm hair? its a genuine question. i haven't got the stuff to make kandi yet, so o dont know :')

[@vinevine4987]

I did red black and blue and it turned out amazing! Thank you for this awesome tutorial it was so easy and fun to make! :D

[@TurboBeads]

Sweet! Great color combination! Sounds Awesome! Glad it turned out Amazing! Thank you for watching and sharing how it turned out.

[@ghostgirl7261]

My beads kept moving causing the chord I was using to wrap around itself I'm not sure how to get it to stop

[@TurboBeads]

Results may vary using different string.

[@midnawolf6103]

it's ok doll take your time on it no rush and with u being really good at what u do I'm sure u will be amazing with it and I'm sure I will love it so please don't rush yourself take your time I truly do understand hun I feel bad that I put u on the spot like that I am sorry

[@connieyoung808]

Is it best to use a plastic/silicon type of string that you are using or can the normal elastic covered cotton (kind of like a hair tie)? I have the normal elastic due to basic kandi...

[@TurboBeads]

I use the the round plastic lace, works best for me, the elastic works as well you will just use less beads with elastic,

[@dreabbinor]

i love this 😁

[@TurboBeads]

Awesome!!!

[@dhddhd4113]

Awesome!! Do you think you could do a 3d starfish tutorial with pony beads? Nobody else has created a tutorial for it before!

[@TurboBeads]

Dh Ddhd I could make that happen thanks for the suggestion! Starfish📌

[@aziraphalesmiracles]

idk if im dumb and did it wrong but when i wrapped my second string around, it tied itself into a knot so i tore everything apart

[@TurboBeads]

Ohh noo keep trying, be sure the knot is secure

How to do this bracelet

[@delightfuldelainie]

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TurboBeads]

DeLainie bland they are great to make, picking out the right colors is the real challenge... what colors work great with this? i was thinking rasta colors or usa colors? what do you think?

[@delightfuldelainie]

From your choice I personally would be USA, but I guess it's up to you. (Sorry if it's not that helpful) I haven't been making kandi for awhile, but I know there's no limit to creativity! Therefore, whatever colors you can think of is great! If you want a list of suggestions: Red, green, white - Italian flag colors (anything goes with black and white) Orange , black, and purple are good Halloween colors I like Purple, Blue, Red, Pink, and White! Have you seen Ginger Cand_E"s color scheme video? That's a great video for ideas! When I make kandi I like to think of a character from anime, then base the colors of that character. When I mentioned the "Italian Flag" I was referring to "Italy" from Hetalia! Hetalia, Attack on Titan, and Sword Art Online are the only anime shows I am in love with, but I know more anime than that. :)

[@TurboBeads]

DeLainie bland I just now read your comment bout socraftastic, she watches from time to time, shes a pretty cool youtuber as well, Watch beadspiration beads, turbobeads ladybug, 3d cube shes in the comments, Sarah is a down to earth person treats everyone like people regardless of sub numbers, much respect...

[@amandareichardt755]

Hey man thanks u r pretty good u could totally sell these at events that's what I do because I think u r so talented u could go really far and that's coming from someone who's been in the business for a good 5-6 years so whatever your choice I know you'll be a success no matter what u choose best of luck bud

[@TurboBeads]

+Amanda Reichardt thats a pretty good idea, i will probably have an online shop with unique things for alittle extra support, lots of times i just give creations away cause hoping to make some sort of positive impact for them. Thank you so much for the positive encouragement! Feel free to add me on kandipatterns aa well

[@amandareichardt755]

midna wolf i am disappointed in myself trying to create the tutorial of spyro, it has taken me a bit longer then usual, ive completed the pattern but wasnt happy with the footage, had to restart over and over, i dont know if i am being too critical on myself or what but, its not working out for me at the moment, am i overthinking it? pressuring myself to make it great. i will continue to try and create things hopefully you will be satisfied with, imma keep working it until satisfactory.

[@SupermaninJapan]

I was wondering how you made that cool design:)

[@TurboBeads]

Tiger in Japan yeah man its pretty easy but looks complicated.

[@Misss.oliviaaa]

How do you fix it when it untwists?!

[@TurboBeads]

Once the string is tied it doesnt untwist.

[@Cosmickayellie]

I'm so bummed. I tried to make it, and i has it, then I put it on and it messed up so now the strings are stuck together and I have 3 different bracelets technically.. I used the bi flag colors and was so excited to wear it.

[@TurboBeads]

Be sure you wrap the string through at least 4 times, also the bracelet results are different when using different string. Try using something thicker. I used S'getti strings made by Pepperell, round plastic lace. It helped shape this bracelet tremendously.

[@Cosmickayellie]

Justin Bennett where did you get the string from? I’ve looked into getting the kind you used from my local stores but haven’t found it yet.
