Welcome in to Jewel Loom School Live. I'm Juliana Avalar, the inventor of the

0:09

Jewel Loom, which is a portable bead weaving loom that can be found pretty

0:14

much all over the world. Pretty much find it um at your local independent

0:21

bead shop. You can find it at your Hobby Lobby shop, Michaels, Amazon, all over

0:26

the place. and of course the shop juweloom.com. And so today I'm going to be working

0:33

with the pretty and pink um kit. So we've had a lot of kits this

0:39

month. We've had the original September uh jewel box kit. We had a second

0:44

colorway for that. And we also have the pretty in pink, which I'm super excited

0:50

about. Now, a lot of people have asked me, um, can you make these bracelets

0:56

going two rows across, let me get in the middle here, instead of three. And the

1:03

answer is yes. And you can see that I've already done that with this bracelet. And so, what I'm going to do is I'm

1:11

going to work on adding the beaded fringe. And I'm using the Hawaiian beads that

1:19

come in the kit along with a couple other things. There's some glass in there,

1:25

some seed beads. Um I put some other really cool dangly dupies, [laughter]

1:32

dangle duper droppers, um that I super love. And so yeah, it's going to be it's

1:38

going to be fun. And without further ado, I did go ahead and I've got plenty of wildfire. I'm using the lilac.

1:47

And so I I did the warps with the magic

1:55

um it's called magic. Yeah, it's the magic hemp cord. Magic variegated hemp cord.

2:03

And I did the weaving of the two holes with some pink.

2:10

And now I'm gonna be using the lilac because they all look good together. So it's kind of like a multicolored

2:16

project. Welcome in Cynthia. So great to see you. Um, okay. So let's see. We're

2:22

going to go ahead and go down to the table so we can get started. And if Joan wants to take me down there,

2:29

that would be wonderful. Also, hopefully everyone is seeing the um Yes. And Joan

2:37

is reminding me [laughter] that I'm the camera switcher.

2:44

She's like, "It that's on you, girl. That's all on you." There we go. [laughter]

Dividing the Bracelet into Sections

2:51

It's not Monday. It's Thursday. Where's my brain? Okay. So, um, what I'm going

2:57

to do first is break my bracelet into or divide my bracelet into three parts. And

3:05

so I have 25 rows and so divided by three

3:10

that'd be closer to 24. And so what would that be? Like sections of eight. Correct. And I did a pretty darn good

3:18

job of actually centering my bracelet in between the two holes. And so I can kind

3:25

of see that. Let's see. I can kind of

3:30

see that this is the middle. And so what I'm going to do cuz I just want Okay,

3:37

let me let me be a little more clear. You see this bracelet? This bracelet has like beaded fringe from the get-go,

3:44

right? It's got it from one end to the other. And I think that's fine and fabulous. What I'm going to do is just

3:51

like a little bit of a decoration in the middle. So you could do you could do what I'm going

3:59

to do or you can certainly do all the beaded fringe. um

4:05

along the top and the bottom. All right. So, what we're going to do is I'm going to count. So, I've got one, two, three,

4:12

four, five, 6, 7, 8.

4:18

So, this is going to be my middle section here. And I want my first fringe

4:23

to come out over here. So, let me see if I come in this way. And then, no,

4:28

because I want to be doing this. So, I want to go dup dup dup. Okay. So, I'm going to come in here. [laughter]

4:36

I'm going to come through this first hole. Okay. And then I'm going to pull

4:44

and I'm going to leave a tail. Now, I did actually try to add the

4:51

fringe as I was putting in the two-hole beads. And what happened is that one of the warps, one of the one of the weft

5:01

threads was over the warp and then one of them was under and it made the fringe

5:09

like lopsided. And so I didn't really care for that look. So I was like, you know what? I'm just going to go back and

5:15

do it afterwards. And so I do need to place this so that I can actually see

5:21

it. Okay.

5:28

And so at this point, all right. So at this point, what I want to do is two

5:34

things. I'm going to bring in a little bit more light. And I'm just wondering if this is

5:40

feeding over on Facebook. Okay. So, I'm going to go ahead and I'm

Selecting Your Beads and Floral Accents

5:48

going to bring in some of my seed beads. So, these are also in the kit. And I'm

5:55

going to bring in some glass. All right, that's some glass. And then I'm going to bring in a couple of my

6:01

flowers. I can bring in a little bit more.

6:10

Okay. So, what I want to do is I want to pick up um I'm going to pick up a seed

6:16

bead and then a piece of glass and then another seedbead. And then I'm going to

6:22

um pick up one of the flowers. These are Hawaiian

6:28

flowers. You're getting an entire strand in your kit. Oh, look at this kit. Just

6:34

this one little leg right now tells me that this pro this bracelet is going to be so stinking cute. Okay. Did I pick up

6:41

another seed? Nope, I didn't. Okay. So, I need to pick up another seed.

6:48

Oh, good. Okay, good to know. And we're going to scooch the seedbead,

6:55

the piece of glass, and the Hawaiian flower up. We're going to bypass

7:02

that seedbead, and we're going to go back through those beads.

7:08

So, we've got to go back through the seedbead glass, the seedbead, and then we're

7:13

going to go back through. And I'm going to have to turn here because I need a little bit more control.

7:20

And I'm going back through.

7:27

And then we're just going to guide that. So, this is going to be our first little leg.

7:32

Oh my gosh. Okay. Oh, look at how cute. Let me bring that up to the camera. So

7:37

cute. Thanks, Pam. Isn't it so cute? Okay. And so, next what we want to do

7:45

is we're going to Ooh, this is going to be interesting.

Creating the First Fringe Legs

7:51

Okay. So, if I I'm going to come through here

7:57

and I'm going to want my next leg to be a little bit longer so that it doesn't

8:02

get all bunched up. Okay, so this time

8:10

I It's so freaking adorable. You could add these to your hatbands, I

8:16

think. And by the way, your last projects, I'm sorry I didn't comment. Um, but I was going to, and I still

8:23

will, but I've got you in p in kind of in person. Um, awesome, amazing,

8:28

incredible. Love, love, love. Okay. So, I don't want

8:36

I don't want the two Hawaiian beads to be,

8:42

you know, even because then it's just going to get bunched up. So, I need to do something more here. I need to

8:50

I need to But I'm also going to need 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 eight. And there's eight or 10

8:57

Hawaiian beads. Um, thinking thinking thinking

9:04

and I've also got these guys

9:09

that I might try to incorporate. So, am I doing eight or am I doing seven?

9:18

All right, Jules, make a decision. Okay, I'm going to pick up Let's pick up

9:24

three. That's be a total of four seed beads. Okay, let's see what we have here.

9:31

Okay, so I've got one seed bead, a glass, three, no, four seed beads. Okay, and

9:38

now I'll pick up a Hawaiian and another seed bead. Okay, that should

9:46

work. So, what I'm trying to do is not have all the Hawaiian beads like you see

9:52

like I want them to have a little bit of room. That looks good.

9:58

Okay. So, that gives you a little bit of space. And then I think next time I'm going to do the reverse. Okay. I'm

10:04

talking out loud. All right. Let's do this. So, we're going to pull that seed bead towards me. [snorts] And then we're

10:09

going to go through the Hawaiian bead and through.

10:15

And then I'm just going to let everything fall. It's a little bit easier for me to get back through the

10:20

two-hole bead. And then all the way out.

10:30

Okay. And then we're just going to grab pinch that last seedbead. Make sure that

10:38

everything is nice and tight. Oh, where's that loop coming from?

10:44

There it is. Okay. I still needed to pull a little bit more. So, hold on. There we go. There we go. Oh, that would

10:49

have been terrible. [laughter] Okay. So, there's our first two little legs.

10:55

I like it. I like it. But this time, I think I'm going to put more seed beads in the beginning

11:01

and then the glass. Just trying to switch it up a little. But then is that going to look I don't

11:08

know how I feel about that. Hold on. Hold on. Let's see. Do I want to stay with the repetition?

11:14

Because I also kind of feel like that's going to look a little weird.

Adjusting Your Weaving Strategy

11:20

I'm going to stay with I want to stay with my game plan of

11:27

Now, how did I end up coming? Did I just go down the wrong

11:35

Well, I wonder if that's not that may not be a bad idea. So, somehow I got one

11:40

row further down than I wanted to be. But

11:46

the truth of the matter is maybe that's a good thing so that things don't start to get too bunched up. Okay, let's learn

11:52

together. learning moment. Let me get back in the screen. I'm gonna pick up a seedbead

12:00

and a glass bead. And then this time we're going to do, let's see, one,

12:08

two, three. We'll mix it up a little. Four.

12:14

And then why don't we grab a gemstone? Let's just kind of get this party

12:19

started. Five. That's going to actually add

12:24

That's going to actually add some more length. Is that going to be too much? Let's see.

12:33

[clears throat] No, actually, that's going to be

12:38

perfect, isn't it? Okay, this is fun. Um, finding the hole here. And then one

12:43

more seed bead.

12:50

And then we're going to turn it this way so that I can see what I'm doing. Bring

12:55

the seedbead towards me and go back through the seedbead, back

13:01

through the gemstone, back through all the seed beads. Make sure you're getting back through all those seed beads cuz

13:06

it's not going to be fun if you don't. And then back through the glass, the seedbead.

13:13

And then we're going to go back through that hole that we just came out of. Okay, that's

13:19

good. That's good that I made that little. So, I didn't do it on purpose, but what ended up happening was I

13:25

skipped a row here and it worked out perfectly. So, as you're making yours,

13:30

you'll need to pay attention if you need to do that as well so that you have the room [snorts] in here.

13:40

Okay, so there's our first three little legs. So stinking cute. Let me just make sure

13:47

I've got all the thread nice and taut. Okay. And then we can

13:53

come back through.

14:00

Whoops. All righty. And so now this time this

14:07

guy can be even a little bit longer cuz we're going to do

14:15

we'll do seven. So, we're going to have one, two, and then we're going to have one,

14:22

two, three, four,

14:29

and h

14:36

I don't know. I think that I think

14:42

I think we could do that. But you know what? That won't. This will be too much.

14:50

Let me try something really quick for giggles. One. Let me do Let me do one,

14:58

two, three, and then let me see how this might look.

15:05

I'm not 100% sure. One,

15:10

two, three. Okay.

15:17

So, okay. Okay, that should work.

15:22

[laughter] I don't really have a plan. I had an idea.

Incorporating Unique Glass Drops

15:29

Um, okay, I like that. Okay, so that's kind of fun. So, what I did was I took one of the big glass beads. These, this

15:36

is a big check bead that I ended up adding to the kit. And that's really cool. So now we kind of have like a

15:43

different look going on. And I picked up three seed beads, the drop. And so the

15:49

hole is going from side to side. And then three more. And now we'll go back

15:54

through the two holes

16:03

and pull through.

16:08

Whoopsie. And then we're going to go ahead and go

16:14

back to Let me get that back in the view for you. I'm always pushing this away from me. [laughter]

16:21

Okay. And then we're going to pick up a single seed bead, a glass bead,

16:28

and let's see. We're going to work in the reverse. So, is that is that four

16:33

still? I think that's four. So, one, two, three,

16:41

four. And then we're going to pick up another gemstone.

16:48

And then, was there a seedbead in between that? There sure was. So, one, and then the

16:56

Hawaiian bead. And then another gemstone. I mean, another seed bead. Okay.

17:11

Oh, wait a minute. Where's that bead? Hold on. Got to make sure that I have this. And I do. Okay, so this came up.

17:18

Okay, here we go. So, we're going to go through and through

17:25

and through. Okay. And we're going to turn this

17:31

sideways.

17:38

And we're going to pull it all the way up.

17:43

Make sure everything is nice and tight.

17:49

Okay. And then I'm going to go back through the hole. And which hole am I at? I'm right here.

17:56

Okay. Whoops.

18:03

I'm I'm a messy little beater today. [laughter]

18:08

Oh, this going to look so pretty when it's dangling. Oh, I want to do this as a necklace. Can

18:14

you imagine how like a choker? I need to do that. That would be so good. All right. And then we're going to

18:20

come back down. Coming back down. Whoopsie.

18:27

Okay. And then, oh, okay. So, this is a good example of

18:34

when your needle won't come out with the force of your hand. I want you to come in with your flats as close to the bead

18:40

and very carefully pull. I don't know what it is, but it works and it doesn't

18:45

break your needle. So, um, glad that happened. All right. So, now we're going

18:52

to work. So, now we're gonna go one

18:57

one seed, one glass. Um, and that was four seeds. So, let's

19:06

see. One, one,

19:12

two, three, four. And then we're going to pick up

19:17

another um uh Hawaiian bead. Hawaiian flower bead.

19:25

Another seed bead. [snorts] Okay. And let me once again pull myself.

19:34

Okay. So, push that seedbead towards you. And then we're going to go back

19:39

through the hoyen bead, through the seeds, through the glass, and through that seedbead.

19:48

And then we're going to go back through this hole again on the top. Whoops.

19:57

And you're just guiding. Make sure you're you're guiding all of the thread because there is a

20:03

lot. And okay.

20:12

And then we're going to come back down.

20:23

Oh my gosh, this is just so stinking precious. Okay, and then we're going to go back to where we had um one

20:32

seed, a glass, one more seed,

20:38

a Hawaiian bead.

20:44

Hawaiian bead and then one more seed.

20:49

Um Pam, are you still there?

20:54

Um on my whatn not tonight I'm going to have 3 mm

21:00

at $2 starts. And I I don't know if you're done with your purchase. you had said that you

21:06

couldn't do anything, but I just didn't want to do that and you not know.

21:11

Okay, so I'm going back through

21:17

that hole and whoopsie.

21:32

Okay. So, now what I need to do is I got to take a look. I'm

21:39

Okay, I'm off center and that's going to drive me nuts. So,

21:45

what I have to do is take a look at this and figure out what I can do.

21:50

I either make peace with it. [laughter]

21:56

Okay, let me get this up to the camera. That's so stinking cute. Am I going to

22:02

worry about it being off center? [snorts] H cuz I Boy, I could have used three

22:10

more rows going in this direction. I'm not sure how to balance it. I'm not sure

22:16

how to balance it because because because because

22:22

that looks really good, but I'm definitely It's not centered.

22:29

Could I do another dangly dupe?

22:36

And then three more. That would be one,

22:41

two. Well, we kind of need it to go all the way over here, don't we?

22:50

H Peanut Gallery. Jules. Jules. Jules.

22:56

Joan's thinking. I can see her cuz she's got her head in her hands [laughter]

23:02

and she's like, "Girl, I'm not sure cuz I I mean it's definitely offc center

23:08

now. Is anyone going to know?" No. No, they're not. I'm going to know.

23:16

Um I'm just trying to cuz what should be

23:22

next then if I'm going to do another one would be the second one of these guys.

23:27

Let me try. Let me just try. I like to solve things as we are in real time. So,

23:33

let's just try. Okay. So, this leg needs to be taught up here.

23:39

And then we're going to come here. Okay. This actually might work. Hold your horses. Okay. So, I'm coming down.

23:48

I'm coming down. Whoops. I'm grabbing everything along the way. Get some stuff out of the way here. [snorts]

23:56

Get some more seed beads. Whoops.

24:03

Okay. So, um, no, I'm coming this way.

24:11

And what I want to do is I'm going to pick up three seeds.

24:19

So, one, two, three. Okay. And then

24:39

let's see. [snorts] And then if I go back through

24:44

here. Okay, this actually might work out. Okay, so we're going to pull through.

24:51

And then we've got one more drop. These glass drops are just so beautiful. Okay,

24:58

so that that took up that space. Let's look at it again. How much closer am I

25:03

getting to being centered? Like two more. Right. Hold on. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

25:15

1 2 3 4 five six seven eight.

25:20

Okay, I think I got it. Okay, so then what we're going to do

25:26

is we'll come down through here. This is going to work out even better.

25:32

It's going to make it even more wy. Okay, so we're doing that. And the

25:38

question then is which direction? Which direction am I going in? Am I working

25:44

back towards short? It'd be another short one, right? because you want to end up long.

25:52

Okay, hold on. We got to think about this. [laughter] We got to think about this. We've got

25:59

short. We went this way. Then we went this way. And then naturally, we would

26:05

go down, right? We would go back down. So, if we're going back down,

26:11

uh, if we're going back down,

26:17

then would we be another short one

26:23

or would we be a long one and we'd be going back up to end like

26:29

that? Let's do that. Let's see for giggles what happens. Okay, this is one of those giggle projects. Okay. So,

26:36

we're going to pick up um one,

26:42

two, No, we're going to pick up only one. We're only picking up one. A piece of glass.

26:48

And Oh, we're going to be short a piece of glass. Crap. Six. Cuz there's only eight

26:55

glasses. How many did I Okay. One, two, three,

27:02

four, five, six, seven, eight.

27:07

the Oh, I know what the thing is. You know what the thing is? The thing is that this is 25 rows long. I based my

27:14

count on 24 in order to make math easy in order to do eight three sections of

27:20

eight. And so we're just I'm only going to be

27:25

able to do two more legs. Okay, let's not make this like some major.

27:32

[laughter] But I do think we need to go long. So we're What was that? That was four,

27:38

right? We picked up four. One, two,

27:43

three, four. And then we're going to pick up a Hawaiian.

27:52

And then we're going to pick up one more seed.

27:59

So, if you happen to have a piece of glass, then I guess you could use your

28:05

own. The kit comes with eight. All right. So, I'm going to go back

28:10

through.

28:16

Wasn't there one on here? Yeah. Okay. And back through. It's getting awfully tight in here.

28:22

And Okay. Let's just do it this way.

28:34

And I might just do that. I might just

28:40

use one of my own. Okay. So, we went gradually.

28:49

Okay. [snorts]

28:55

I mean, not for nothing, it's going to look so flipping cute on. Okay, so let's keep on going cuz I want to get this

29:02

done. I'm so excited about it. [laughter] All right. Um, so then we would

29:11

we would be

29:21

okay. We would be picking up Whoopsie. We would be picking up a seed, a glass,

29:29

and then four more seeds. Was it four or five over there?

29:40

Whoops. So, four, cuz it was four there. That

29:45

makes it the same. So, we want to go a little bit longer, right? So, five. And then, oh wait a minute. We should

29:52

probably add, let's add a gemstone. And then a seedbead.

29:59

And then one of these guys. And you know, this might just be enough. I need

30:05

to not overthink it.

30:10

[snorts] So, we're going to bring this forward and

30:17

back through all the beads.

30:24

Okay. Whoops.

30:30

[clears throat] Okay. Bring that up close. And then we got to go back through.

30:37

Want to make sure I'm going back through the right hole of the two-hole bead.

30:53

Okay. And so this is the dilemma where

30:59

I really feel there should be a shorter one over here.

31:04

I'm going to get into my personal stash. Hold on. Una momento. Poor fabul.

31:11

[laughter]

31:23

Okay. And so then what we're going to do here on our last leg is to pick up one

Completing the Final Fringe Legs

31:32

one and one.

31:39

And then yeah, then I guess basically it would be one and then a flower

31:50

and then one more. Okay, it's fine.

31:55

Oh, wait. Did I go through the hole? No. [laughter] Oops.

32:02

I was so worried about about the the other glass piece. So, let's let's pull

32:08

these off. It's all good, though. We'll just very carefully get them off of the needle.

32:14

Perfect. Thank you for working. Yep. Thank you. But then what we need to do

32:21

is jewels, jewels, jewels. We need to come back through this guy.

32:30

Okay. So, it all worked out. And again, it's not the end of the world. It all worked. It's as perfect as it perfectly

32:36

needs to be. Okay. So, we're going to pick up one seed. And we're going to pick up a glass,

32:44

a seed, and the Hawaiian flyer flower. And then

32:51

another seed. Okay. And then we're going to push that

32:57

forward. And we're going to go through the Hawaiian flower, through the seedbead, the glass, and

33:06

then all the way back up.

33:16

Okay. Awesome sauce. So, just make sure that everything got nice and tight. And

33:21

then I'm going to go back. I'm going to weave um back up a little bit just to tie off

33:27

the extra thread. That looks so much better. Like I'm I'm I'm happy because

33:34

Yeah, that's fantastic. That's fantastic.

33:39

Just fant Oh my gosh, I'm so Okay, I'm so happy. [laughter]

33:45

All right. So, let me Yeah, let me just get get out of the way of all of this

33:51

and then I'll tie and then we'll take it off of the loom.

33:57

And now I feel like I need an outfit.

34:02

I guess this would be really just, you know, this I could just do this with my black

34:08

with my I have a black dress that I wear when I go out. I haven't worn it in a little minute. So, [snorts] I think the

34:16

black dress is going to have to make an appearance this weekend. And we're going to do some pink accessories.

34:23

We are just going to um Mama's going to hone in on her female feminine energy.

34:30

[laughter] What do we have to say about that, Joan?

34:35

[laughter] She's like, "Let me go tease my hair.

34:43

All right. So, what I want to do is

34:48

I [snorts] work better from the right. So, owie. Um, let me because I just want

34:54

to tie off this thread. So, I'm going to come through I'm going to come through that hole. Okay. Left side. I'm sorry,

35:02

right side. Going through that hole and then out and in between those two beads.

35:09

Whoops. Okay. Then I'm just going to grab the

35:15

warp and pull through again.

35:22

And then I'm taking the needle to go back through that loop so I can make a knot right in the middle. And then we take my

35:29

needle and push it down so that the knot follows me to the back side of the project.

35:38

Okay. Fantastic. And then what I'll do is I'm just going to cut this and I'm going to go back

35:43

with the um burner and I'll um burn those a little bit closer. So, let me

35:51

let me clean up here and get my seed beads out of the way.

36:02

Okay. And then I think we could get rid of the mat. [snorts]

Removing the Project from the Loom

36:07

All right. So, when I cut my pieces off of the loom, I like to hold them. Okay.

36:12

So, I'm gonna This is just so stinking gorgeous. Hi, Danielle. Yeah, I got a

36:18

question for you. So, um so I'm going to hold this beautifulness in my hand,

36:23

right? I like lay lay this in my hand and then very carefully I sandwich it.

36:30

And then you could see my my hand kind of like shifting, right? And then I I've got my thumb

36:37

on the jewel loom. And what I'm doing is I want to cut this piece off, but when I

36:43

do that, it's going to flex. And so I don't want the glass beads to like slam

36:48

the table. So that's ultimately what I'm doing here. Okay. So I'm going to bring

36:55

the scissors in. Whoa. See? [laughter]

37:00

You know, that's why I do that to protect the glass. And then I'm just going to cut

37:07

and cut. And then we'll put the jewel limb over to the side,

37:12

you guys. You guys. Oh my gosh. I'm so Look at Oh,

37:18

it's going to be so fabulous. So stinking fabulous. I love it. Okay.

37:25

So, again, I'm going to be going in and I'll trim up all my little threads with

37:30

um with the burner, the wildfire burner. So, I'm going to come over here. Now, I

37:35

have odd amounts of

37:41

of uh warps. So, it does look like a flower garden. It's

37:47

a very happy piece. So, I just want to

37:53

get at least one knot over here.

38:08

Okay. Boom. And boom. And then what I'll do with the single guy

38:15

is I'll just give him like a little loopy knot here. So he'll still be fine

38:21

cuz singles are fine. [laughter]

38:26

Single warps are fine. Okay. I haven't decided yet. I think this is going to be my my button side because Yeah, because

38:35

I need more tail, more length for my loop. So, let's just go ahead

38:42

and um get these guys. This magic hemp cord is

38:50

like sassy. It's very frayy. I did take some white glue on my other projects and

38:56

I just put them on the end cuz I think what it is I think it's the metallic in this. It's just very sassy.

39:05

It's so stinking beautiful. Okay. So, we're just going to just going

39:11

to do that. And then I'll come in here and give it a

39:18

nice little knot. I am going to end up putting some white

39:23

glue in here because again, for whatever reason, the variegated magic from him

39:29

cord is um sassy. Delicious but sassy.

39:37

Okay. And this does come in the kit. Okay. So, just FYI.

39:42

All right. So, we'll clean that up in time. And then,

39:49

okay. And then this is going to be the loop end. So, again, we're just going to take and tie

39:59

these ends.

40:06

How many spaces did you leave in between the beads? You mean the fringe? The fringe,

40:13

Cynthia? If you're talking about the fringe, I literally have a fringe leg on everyone

40:20

except for that little I don't even know how that happened. I skipped one way in this area. And I don't really I don't

40:27

even know how I did that. It's kind of weird. But for the most part, I did one on every hole. So, um, but you could

40:35

skip them. I mean, you know, I could have skipped, but I kind of like the chunkiness.

40:41

I think it's going to look really fun on on my wrist. So, okay. And then, let me

40:47

again, I'm going to come back and I'm going to use the burner to um burn all the wildfire. Right now, I just want to

40:54

get these done so I can put it on

41:02

Okay. And then I pretty much just kind of know because I've done it 5,000

41:08

times. This does make it a little more challenging with the sassy ends.

41:15

Might even want to wet them a little, but I won't won't do

41:22

that on camera. [laughter] Okay. So, I'm not going to tighten that just yet because I got to make sure

41:29

[snorts] that um I got to make sure that

41:36

that loop is going to be big enough. And it looks like it's going to be Yep.

41:42

Okay. In fact, it could almost be a little bit tighter,

41:48

right? Isn't it just precious? I was just saying I think I'm going to wear it with all my um with my black

41:56

my black dress this weekend.

42:06

I'm just trying to get that this loop a little bit more tight.

42:13

Okay. And I I always go back and kind of massage everything and then Okay. So,

42:21

I'm going to come in here. Where where does this guy belong?

42:28

Okay. I don't really want to I want to burn that one off. So, let me just put this on.

42:35

Oh my gosh. Freaking love it. Okay. OMG. Whoops. Do

42:42

I need to have that tighter? What's going on here? S

42:49

what h what girlfriend? [laughter] There we go. I I think I know what's

42:56

going on. I think that Oh my heck. You know what it is? It's so stinking heavy.

43:02

It just keeps moving. Not like uncomfortable heavy, but it's chunky.

43:08

It's very chunky. Okay. There we go. There we go.

43:13

Okay. Oh.

43:19

Oh. Oh. Oh. I mean, come on now. Look at all those Hawaiian flowers.

43:25

Look at all the Hawaiian flowers. Now, if you wanted to, you could take

43:33

some seed beads and do like a pico stitch on the top right here. And I

43:39

think that would be a nice finishing look. I don't think it's necessary, but

43:45

it could look cool. You could use seed beads or maybe even some crystals, like say four mm crystals or even 3 mm, like

43:54

hot pink crystals. That would look really cool. Or you just do the bottom.

44:01

I love it so much. Very cool. Okay. I'm really glad that I

44:08

went back to and and that I added some more rows because see how it just kind

44:13

of takes the width of my wrist so it just looks really great.

44:20

Okay, I'm in love. I do need to um I do need to make this closure a little bit

44:27

uh tighter and I will do that off camera. Hey, you

44:34

know what? Yesterday we learned how to do the paper beads. Did any of you catch that live with Ann Butler and I? Um,

44:42

it's so easy. And I'm thinking like if I found the right paper. In

44:48

fact, I just wonder Hold on. I'm not making a paper bead right now, but I just want to show you. I'm just

44:55

wondering would that This is the cork. Oh, that's not the right tone though.

45:01

That's not the right tone. Okay. But yum. Um, I could also do it out of

45:08

fabric. Also make a bead.

45:15

Check this out. That would be kind of funky, huh?

45:20

But actually, I just feel like it needs to be maybe pink. I think this is maybe

45:27

I don't know. I don't know if it clashes. This is vintage fabric. Anywh

45:32

who anywh who there's so many things. Okay, I'm coming back up. [laughter]

45:39

I'm coming back up and I am the cameraman over here in

45:44

California while Joan holds it down in Tennessee. Okay. Wow. [laughter]

45:52

How fabulous did that turn out, you guys? It's so stinking cute. And I am

45:57

not even kidding. Like I mean really that would be the cutest

46:03

flipping choker, right? And what you could do

46:09

[snorts] what you could do is you could you could

46:15

tie like suede or leather or sorry ribbon to the ends

46:23

of the bracelet. Right? So, you would do everything except for adding the button

46:28

and you would tie ribbon or what have you and then that could be your choker.

46:35

I might have to do that. I love that idea. [laughter]

46:42

Creativity. Okay, I'm bringing you close to me. Not too too close, but close enough. All

46:48

right. Were there any unanswered questions talking about the base? Oh.

46:55

Um, I don't know what you mean by skipping then, Cynthia. What did you

47:00

mean by that? She says, "How many spaces did you leave in between the beads?"

47:06

How many spaces did you leave in between the beads?

47:13

And she says she's talking about the base.

47:22

Joan, do you know what she's talking about?

47:27

Oh, go down. How many grooves? Oh, to accommodate the the two hole. Um,

47:36

you're going to skip three. So, you're going to skip three.

47:44

You're going to skip three. This is what you're talking about, Cynthia. How many grooves?

47:51

Yeah. So about three. Sometimes two hole beads can be smaller than the next. Like

48:00

I think it's the which one's one of them is like just seems to be a little bit more tinier.

48:07

But I still think I still think it's three that would be most common. Let me

48:13

see. Are there new comments? Yeah, just grooves. Thanks. Okay. Okay. That helps,

48:18

Cynthia. Awesome sauce. Teasless are smaller than Yeah, that's

48:26

what it is. Yeah, it's kind of funny like that they're that they're like that. Um Yeah. So, I don't know if I

48:34

mentioned earlier, but somebody had emailed me about using Danielle's closure technique um and wanted to know

48:42

if it could be done if you just did two squares across. And

48:48

answer is yes. [laughter] You can do this cool fan closure with

48:55

only two squares going across. And if you do buy the pretty and pink

49:02

kit, I'm going to gift you those instructions. You just have to buy the kit and then I will email them to you

49:09

digitally. Okay. So, there's that. So, [snorts] yeah. Awesome sauce. Oh my

49:15

gosh. I love it when we make something complete. I will make sure that the instructions on how to make your base

49:22

are um in a video that's at the end of this video so that if you don't know how

49:28

you can go back. I really wanted to focus on the fringe today.

49:33

We could also be like this. We could also do these things. Oh, you know what? That would look good

49:40

on a hatband, wouldn't it? Or like a ball cap.

49:47

Well, I did a hatband in um No, well, it's not wouldn't be called a hatband.

49:52

It would be called a headband like from the 70s. I did do one of those in my book.

49:59

So, that was cool. And Cynthia says, "I already ordered." Okay, honey. I'll make sure you I'll make sure you have those

50:07

those directions. The center part would be cute wired to or glued to a barret.

50:13

Absolutely. Yep. And you saw how easy it is to make. So, and all of these beads are in your pretty and pink pretty and

50:21

pink kit. I think I'm turning this one into a choker and I'm going to wear it this

50:27

weekend. I'll take a picture. All right, you guys. Thank you so much for being here. Um, next week my hope

50:38

my hope is to show you how I took both

50:44

September kits,

50:50

both September kits. So, colorwave number one and color wave number two and

50:56

merged them. And so that's my hope. Probably what

51:02

will happen is that the base of the project will be done and then I'm going to show you what I'm dreaming up for the

51:10

middle, which I think is just going to be like incredibly awesome. Like a a very big piece of art.

51:18

Sounds good. Cynthia says, [laughter] "I think it's going to be pretty cool, too." So, and Danielle sent me the

51:25

finished um September and both one and two, but they're not going to be here till tomorrow. Darn it. So, um that's

51:32

just so weird. Usually, usually from Washington to California, it's like overnight, but not this time. So, I'll

51:39

have those tomorrow uh next Thursday. But we will see you then. And I appreciate you so very, very, very, very

51:45

much. And I'm almost done getting all of the kits dialed in and together. Um and

51:50

for those of you that bought all three kits, I am putting a surprise in your box.

51:56

I'm going to put a surprise in your box because I appreciate you. That's a very generous purchase. Some of you have

52:02

already done it, so don't worry. I got you. This isn't a like only today thing.

52:07

This is an acknowledgement. If you bought all three kits, I'm going to gift you something. And um Oh, it's cool.

52:14

That's okay, Danielle. But weird, huh? Usually when you send something, it gets here awfully quick. So So

52:21

it must be the heat. Anyway, I love you guys. I adore you. I appreciate you more than you will ever ever ever know. And
