Welcome in everyone. Hello Cecilia. So nice to see you. Hey, I'm on my own
tonight. Joan's like I don't know with Dolly Parton or something. Who knows?
Hey, I am so super excited. I have had my eye
on designing with these gorgeousness, these beautiful AGOT gemstones for I
don't know, ever since I bought them. And so I'm super excited to make
bracelet with you tonight on the original jewel loom using these guys.
They're kind of big. They're eight 8 mm. I usually kind of focus on the sixes,
but hey, we're gonna go big or go home today. So, yeah, they really are beautiful. And immediately after
this show, so like we're going to go to like five o'clock and then at 5:15 we're going to go over to whatnot and I
have a live show on whatnot starting at 5:15. And um I've got $2 starts and $3
starts and all kinds of gorgeous beads. So, I'm going to post that link. And I
do believe with that link, you actually get
a like money to spend. I'm pretty sure that's how that works. Try it. It's
worth trying. All right, let's get started because I Hey, Zach. I super want to get um this going again. Joan's
not with us tonight. So if you have a question and I'm not somebody's not answering, just wait and one of us will
definitely one of us. Now I'm plural. The dog's going to help me. No, he's not. Okay, let's get to it. Going to go
down to the camera here. Change it up. Go to the phone. Alrighty.
Okay. So, I'm working with the Jewel Loom. And as I mentioned, I've also got
these gorgeous 8 mm AGOT stones that I'm going to be weaving with. I've got some color um
leather. Now, this is an actual leather that has a coating on it with color.
It's pretty strong, but I would say that with the natural, you have to be really careful. So, what we're going to do is
set up the jewel loom really quick. And I'm just going to give myself a little bit more room here.
Okay. So, we're going to take the rod and we're going to put it into whoopsie
that bottom hole. And then we're going to bring it up to the top hole
and snap it in. All right. Don't ever force it. Remember, the plastic is
flexible, not bendable. All right. Very, very important to remember that. Then,
I'm going to turn the jewel loom over. So, now this is its back side and it's facing up to the ceiling.
We'll let that camera get focused there. And then I'm going to bring in my 1mimeter
hemp hemp. My 1 millimeter leather. See, I use him cord so much that I'm throwing
myself off because I'm using leather. And by the way, I do have the leather on
the site. It's through Hempique. That's why I said hemp. And so, um, you can
check that out if you need to get some leather. All right. All right. So, I just did two little knots. And then what
I'm going to do is so let's just do some some navigation
here. Okay. Left hand is going to hold the jewel loom from this standpoint.
Right hand's going to come in, grab that leather. And again, don't be too too
forceful with the leather because it is more delicate than other materials.
So, I've got a good grip on it. And you can see that I'm just laying it down.
Because it's 1 mil, it's not going to fit into the grid into the groove, but
it's going to like lay on it. So, then I'm going to flip the jewel loom over. So, now it's facing up towards the
ceiling. And I'm bringing that leather all the way down.
And then I'm going to change my hands. I just do like a little dance. And then I'm going to flip it again.
Go around the back button. And this time when I come up, I've got to skip some grooves.
So I can't remember exactly how many eight are. Let's see. I'm going to do some
fancy finagling here. Let me bring in my needle. We got to figure out how many.
Any guesses? So like for a 6 mm square, we usually
skip three to four. But for that guy, h
that almost looks like what I've got. Let me count. I've got um one, two,
three, four, five, six.
I think I'm going to come over just a hair.
There we go. I think that'll be just fine. Okay. And then I'm going to bring it all the way to the top.
And I'm going to skip just as many on the top. And again, I'm holding the
warps pretty taut. Okay, Zach, you said one to five.
That was cute. Okay. And then I'm going to flip it again and wrap it around that
back button. The whole entire time I'm working off the spool, by the way. And then we're going to skip
another round of six. And you could you could kind of get to the point where you eyeball it pretty well,
right? And then we're going to bring that all the way down again. Oo, look at what I just did. I almost almost warped
my needle into everything. Let's get that out of the way.
Okay. And then once again, we're gonna skip
the grooves, come around the back button, come back up. Now, I'm going to go three
across. So, I need four warps. So, you always need one more warp than you are
um beading with. And then we're going to bring this all the way up.
Let that lie down. Okay.
And then we're going to flip it over and wrap it around that back
button. Now, I don't want to waste too much of this leather because it actually is real. Coated, but real. Um, so I'm
going to Whoopsie. I'm going to wrap it around
the back there. What's super cool about working with the thicker product is look it it kind of like locks itself in.
And so it's not like when we're doing the beading thread and it's so thin and we have to worry about like actually
getting getting our um knot without losing our our tension. So right now all
I'm doing is making a knot. I could take the two tails and tie them
together. basically just don't want to lose my my tension.
Hi, Carol. Nice to see everybody. Thank you for being here. Um, I think I'm going to go
ahead and trim this guy because I just don't want him in my way. And then I'm going to flip it over. The beads were
all having like a little party dancing everywhere. And now I've got to take my rod out. Now,
uh, this is what I'm going to tell you. Um, you for leather, it's kind of an
interesting animal. Leather can can sometimes stretch. So, if I didn't think I was going to finish this piece, I
would more than likely leave my rod in, but 9.9
times you take the rod out. Um, and so you want to consider that when you're
working with leather or any other type of material that might stretch a little bit too much. So, and um
yes, this is gorgeous. Gorgeous. All right. So, I'm going to go ahead and take the rod out of the jewel loom. And
what you want to do is you're going to take your pointer and you're going to put that right on top of the warps on
top of the grid. And then pop that rod
out. And I'm taking mine out because we're going to finish this bad boy.
Okay. So, I am working with the wildfire from
Beatetelon. I've got a beige color. I could have used the sage, but that's okay. No, you're not going to really see
it. And I'm just doing like a little knot on the side. Knots are controversial. You either do them or you
don't do them. I'm honestly just not going to give you any grief about what you choose to do. It's really a personal
choice. All right. So, let me just get my wildfire dialed in over here and get
my knot back up. Now, I want my piece to be centered on the jewel loom. So, for
me, having a 6-in wrist, that usually means starting right underneath that top hole right
there. Okay. So, what I'm going to do now, just to kind of give you like a
little another little visual, this is my left hand. The needle is in my left hand
and this is my right hand. And the beads are over here on the right side of the loom. And so we're going to take the
needle. We're going to come under the warps. Transfer that over into my right
hand. And I'm going to pick up three of these gorgeous stones.
Which, by the way, I only have one strand on the table right now because I'm not sure if it's going to take one
strand or a little bit more. We're going to find out together. And then I wh I
make sure I'm in the shot. So, we're going to We put those on the needle and
the thread. We let it slide all the way down. And now we're going to pop them up in between the warps.
Whoops. Let me come over here because we got two different shots going on. There we go.
And then we're going to take the needle and we're going through the hole. We're on top of the warps and we're going to
go all the way out. Do you see that? Let me slow down a little bit so that
you can actually see what's happening. Okay. And then we're going to take the needle and we're just going to guide it
very slowly. Now, I'm working with about two yards of the beading thread.
And so I'm just going to take it slow. And yes, that just scooched down, but I'm going to put it all back together
here in a second. So we'll just scooch it right back up to where it was. Give it a little tug. Now on the first row
and the last row only, this I do this following step just to secure those into
place. I'm turning the l loom sideways and I'm going back through the hole that
I'm under the warp. And I'm going all the way
wh all the way over to the other side there. All the way out. And what this does is
it just helps that first and last row to really stay in place
and not move. And so now we're going to go back through.
And again, that needle Whoops. Let's come over here. that needle is always on top of the warps
when you're going back over the top there. So, you can see like the silver shiny part.
And again, I'm just helping to guide the wildfire since there's so much of it.
And now we're ready for our second row. And yes, we do have a snoring dog in the
room. I tried to get him to stay in the other room and he's just not having it. He was crying. So, it's a big baby.
All right. So, look at this guy. That one's really, really pretty.
Okay. So, I just pick those up. And I'm letting them fall all the way
down. [Music]
And we're going to pop them up in between the warps. You can already tell how this is just going to be a gorgeous
bracelet. And so I did um put all of the gemstones
are on sale in the shop in the jewel.com shop for 30% off. So you would want to
look for the agots. I think they're like regularly $6 a strand which is like
super good anyway. Um, but because you're watching and if you want some,
they are on sale. You will need to um No, you won't. I did an automatic discount. That's right. So, you don't
have to do anything. You just have to go shop. Okay. So,
again, just picking up more beads
[Music] and popping them up and in between the
warps.
Yes, the bulldog snore. The bulldog snore. Beating and bulldogs. A whole new
series. So, we're just going to keep doing this
um you know, back and forth picking up the beads, putting them on. This is the the
WS. A lot of people were this is the well it is what it is. It's the WS. Um
I'll refer to it like the weaving I'm weaving and um but this is what you do
until the length of your bracelet
is the length that you want it. So we're
just going to keep pulling these. This is going to be really stunning once it's done. Holy cow. I'm super excited about
it. I do want to point out that do you see the sides here? How nice the
wildfire is up against the warps? The
frustrating thing is when you don't pull tight enough and you've got like a little ribbon out here on the side and
there's really not much you can do about that. So, you also don't want to pull too tight that you distort the warp. So,
it's it's a it's a nice balance of of um tension. So, okay. So, we're just
going to keep going and picking up beads and
weaving away. Hope everyone's having um a nice day.
I will say that here in California, it's been exceptionally warm today.
And yeah, there we go. Perfect. Okay. And we're just going to keep picking up
these guys.
[Music] So, tomorrow I'm going to take a fun trip to the gym
show, and I'm hoping to find even more gems. Whoops.
I always tell myself, I don't need any more gems. The shop doesn't need any more gems.
And then it's like, it's just right up the road. Hard not to go and at least stare at
everything, right? Wow. Let's take a minute to really
appreciate the fabulousness right now.
Awesome. Okay. So, since um we don't have a moderator today, it would be really
great if somebody chimed in and uh I don't know, just tell me that um you can hear me, you can see me, what's going
on, let me know what's happening. All right. Right on. Thank you guys.
Thank you. It's It's um uh what do we call it? We're just going
to call it like a little uh little checkin. Oh my goodness. I can see the hole. I just can't get it on there.
Okay, there we go.
Oh, cool, Heather. Oh gosh, these will be easy peasy.
I mean, really. And the price point on these um agots
are just like so good, right? They're just not that expensive. And so you can
really um make a beautiful bracelet.
Also, do you just kind of see like how um how I I put one hand down on the
belly of the loom and then I'm pushing up just to make sure that everything is
nice and even. So, you want to kind of pay attention to how I um how I rotate
my hands. And then by all means, you're going to come up with your own dance.
Let's see. This is always the hard part, like which bead to pick up.
These are always so pretty. Plus, I'm having a hard time. I know there's a hole in here. There we go.
Okay, so hello Nancy. Yes, they are so gorgeous. So, these are
um the multicolored light
brown mix. There's Oh my gosh, there's a few
different agots in the shop that are just to die for. And like I mentioned, they're 30% off right now. You don't
have to use any codes. Um so, great deal cuz I think they're regularly like maybe
six. So, take 30% off of that. I mean, that's crazy crazy good fun times. And we're going to
see. I don't know yet if it's going to take I'm guessing it's going to take two strands,
but I'm also going three across. So, I mean, if you wanted to, you could only you could do like two across. I don't
know if it'd be as fabulous, but you could do that. By the way, too, here's
another thing. Do you see how sometimes I'm going in at an angle? If my needle
doesn't want to go straight across, I never fight with it. I just let it glide
in at an angle and I pull through. And then when I'm almost all the way out of
thread, then I straighten them up. It just makes life easier. You and the needle will be better friends.
Okay. So yeah, we're just going to continue to randomly pick up
three beads. And when the beads are bigger like this,
you can really get a beaded bracelet done quite quickly. So
see there again, it wants to go in at an angle.
And I'm not going to fight with it. I'll just let it go back into its place naturally. Oops.
So, it's going to be interesting here to see if I do indeed need
two strands. I think I'm going to
[Music] Heather, do you um you just started beating. So, what do do you have? Um do
you have a loom? And if so, which one? I used to have two pucks at snor.
Marlon Brando. Well, I mean, he was literally right before press live coming in here crying and grumping, grumping,
grumping, grumping because his bed was not in here. And um and so I just gave
in and I just made him a little makeshift. See, listen. And then he gets mad because I'm talking
because I'm interrupting his snoring. God,
the funny thing is he doesn't do this at night when we sleep. So, it's kind of weird. Like he he snores for the
audience, I think.
[Music] Okay. So, popping those up again. Back
through. Needle is gliding on the top again. It just wants to go in at an
angle. And then I'm just going to guide the beetle on wildfire. And then hold the
belly of the jewel loom. Just making sure. Let's take a peek here. Whoa.
Yeah. Super cool. Super cool. It almost reminds me of like
a lot of little tiny retro bowling balls.
Be a super cool bowling ball bracelet. Anybody bowl when they were little? I was All State California when I was
little. I was like the bowling
bowling uh girl had trophies and the whole nine.
And then we're just going to pop those up. And Whoops.
going through. And that one really wants to go at a at
an angle. And again, I'm not going to fight it. I'm just going to let it do its thing. Hi, Sharon.
Oh, the beads are just like so delicious. So delicious. Okay, I just want to get
an overhead peek here to make sure I am straight. And it does look like it.
Oops.
So, I need one more here. Okay.
So, I'm super excited. My um this is going to be so funny. So, my very first
boyfriend and bestie from when we were like, I
don't know, um, junior high school at least. Um, he, him and his wife are here from
Japan. And so, I'm super stoked because I get to meet her for the first time and
she's just precious. I've seen obviously many pictures online and we I mean
literally we've been friends him and I like our whole lives pretty much. And so
um they flew in and we're going to all go to dinner one night while they're
here and so I'm super excited.
Oh maybe I should give her this bracelet. That would be a good idea, huh? Hey,
Jenny. So, okay.
And again, let's just make sure. Oh, look at that. Which one is it? Look at that. Cool. Whatever's happening on that
one. It looks like a little eyeball or something. All right. I've only got one.
I can only get one more row with one strand. Okay. So, a
bracelet is definitely going to take two strands.
And um again, you could probably go thinner if you wanted, but I'm such a
big fan of the three across. Um but yeah. Hi, Jewelry by Janette. No
worries. Thank you for for coming. Okay. So, yeah. So, let me get another
strand. And I'll need to
just make a cut.
Okay. I don't need I don't think I need too too many more rows, but
I'll have to get out my tape measure.
Yeah, this is like really good. Look at that.
[Music]
Okay, that time it wanted to go in straight.
[Music] Okay, just making sure, you know, when I
do that, it's because I'm making sure that the rows are still going across straight. Really nice.
And let's get some more some more. Um,
they're just all so pretty.
And you don't realize how unique they are until they're off of the strand.
[Music]
Okay, I'm going to need to measure because at first glance,
just got to make sure I'm on top of the warps there.
Let me get my um sewing tape measure.
Whoops. I know, Bubba.
I know. Oh, thank you, Cecil. Okay, so where we
at? Oh, okay. So, maybe another one or two rows to get to six inches.
Okay. And I just Let's see. I I just noticed I was a little crooked there. Also want to scooch up. All right. Let's
get Let's get another one or two rows in
here. [Music] Yeah. And um Yeah. And they should be
automatically taking off the 30%. And if for some crazy reason they don't, you
know, that I'm always good for my word and I'll I'll make sure that that's on there. Oh no.
I didn't hear about any weather up north. Huh.
[Music]
Okay, I'm going to bring that tape measure back in because I want to see what one more row actually did.
Let's see here. Um, yeah.
Do I want to do another row or do I just want to
I think I think I'm going to call it six because my wrist is six
[Music] and if my wrist is six and I'm going to
have the room with
with the button and everything. Oy, that's a tough call. I'm going to I'm going to wing it. I think we're good. I
think we're good. So, so here are all the beads that are still left um from
the second strand. So, just to kind of give you an idea if
you do want to make one. So, all right. I'm going to come back into this shot
here. And oh, we got to do that last row where I do that special little
extra secure weave. So, I'm coming back through the um beads, but I'm under the
warps.
Okay. And then I'm going to go back through.
And again, the needle always wants to be on the top of the warp there when you're coming back over. So, just remember
that. Uhoh. Got a lot of lot of thread here.
And then what I'm going to do is just hopefully very discreetly here,
um, I'm going to go back under, come back out. So, I'm I'm just going to
Everybody's got like a different jam that they do when they're tying on and tying off, you know? Um, Danielle does
one thing, I do one thing, everybody's just kind of got their own thing. And honestly,
it's not wrong. None of them are wrong. It's it's
whatever works for you and keeps your piece um you know, secure. So, you know,
we're not going to um we're not going to call out anyone for doing their starts
or their finishes the way that they want to do them cuz we just don't play that
game here. All right. And then I'm going to take the needle and go back down so that the knot kind of follows me.
And okay, cool. Awesome. All right. So, I'm
just going to um nip this a little bit and I'll go back with my burner and take
it down even closer. So, let's just check in really quick.
Oh my goodness. The old man's hat just made their very first bracelet. Tell me
some more. Tell me some more. More. More. Okay, so I'm going to turn the jewel loom over
just to kind of back up here. Let's Whoops. Oh my lambs. Here is our
gorgeousness. Look at that. So stinking pretty. So
pretty. All right, so now we got to get it off the loom. So, we're going to turn the loom over.
And I'm just going to very carefully cut. Whoops. Not myself.
Hopefully. And I do just want to point out something. You see how I have a mat
here, right? So, when I'm working with all this glass, all this stone, I'll cup
the piece in my hand and then let's get into camera here. See here? my thumb and
my pointer. So, I've kind of like got like this beaded sandwich, right? Because I don't want the glass
stone to bounce off of the mat when this lets loose cuz it's going to let loose.
See how the it it went back to being flat. So, you just want to little trick
that I do the way that I hold it. I do think that that helps. So, okay. So,
we're going to come over here. And I just want to make sure we're got a
good shot for everybody. We got people watching in vertical mode and we have people watching in horizontal. And I
think it's kind of cool. I am going to come over here
and
gonna come over here. And I don't know, John, if you're watching, but I just got
your text. And yes, we are still doing whatn not after after the live here. So, um 5:15
California time, 6:15 Chicago time
and what? 8:15. 8:15 um
Carolina time. Okay. So, all I'm doing are making my little my little knots
here. So, I pinch the two warps together and then I'm bringing the um ends
under the loop. And then you can kind of see how I bring in my scissors. And I
just help to very carefully obviously to walk that knot as close to the beads as
possible. Whoops.
And we're just going to pull. Sometimes you can just pull one warp at a time.
Okay. And we just want to make sure that we're not pulling too tight that our beaded
piece is getting, you know, distorted or what have you. And then we're going to come over here to the other ends and I'm
going to cut the loops. Whoops. Boy, I'm all over the place.
Okay, so got those in the middle.
And then we're going to do the same thing where I'm going to take two of them. The the cool thing about going
three across is that it gives you even warps to deal with at the end. So that's
one of the reasons why I like to go three across because then if you don't,
you know, you just kind of have you have an uneven number. But you can do it. So
again, just making that knot go down and making sure that I'm not distorting the body of my
my bracelet. Excuse me.
Yeah, these are the light I think they're called like light light
multicolor brown with blue or something like that.
All of the AGOT's pretty different on the site, so you can kind of tell.
Okay. So, I'm going to use one of my um
one of my big buttons. You know, I'd love to go big or go home. And I feel
like because I'm going to need a loop, I want the most warp. So, I'm going to
leave this end with the longest part of the warp
um to make to make the little loop there. And so now I'm going to turn this
around. And I want to know if the old man hat is is our Robert saying that.
Oh, and this is what I like to do, too. I like to bring the warp threads through the hole
and back down. And then we'll take the other side. The
cool thing about the swirl um button is that the holes are
um big enough to do this. Some of the other buttons might have a little bit of a smaller hole, but um you could still
do it. It just makes it easier when they're when they're larger
and then
down. Okay. So it just kind of gives like a nice cool finished top when you
do that instead of tying on the top because you could. Um, so I do believe
that these are the 8 mm tish. I might I I'm pretty sure that's how I have them listed. I think they're all eights.
And then I just pull each side
so that the button stays even. I'm just trying to get it all the way down.
Okay. So, I think that looks pretty good. And then I'm just going to come over here
and tie all of this. So, basically what happens is that the
knot just ends up on the back side.
And these are sustainable Baltic birch wood buttons. So, they can be stained.
They can be um you could color them in with pencils. You can paint them. Um
they're super cool. I like to put resin on mine and then they get like all shiny.
I've even did uh did one recently where I poured the resin and then I sprinkled them with those no hole beads. That was
super cool. I should do a demo on that. Um, because the leather is a little
slippery, I might I don't really know that there's a glue that's going to
work. I We'll see how it goes. I might be inclined to do a little wire
wrapping. I'm not sure. We'll see how it stays. But for right now,
I'm going to I'm going to leave it like that. I'm not going to clean it up until I know for sure that it fits. So,
there's the top. And you could just see how pretty that is.
And again, we could have tied at the top. I don't know. I might change my mind. I'm not sure. See, that's why I
don't like to cut too many things or do any final moments until I know for sure.
So, on this end, we're going to do the um the loop. So, we just have to make
sure. Let me put this on my hand here. Whoops. Okay. So,
so we have to bring this around. Oh, this is heavy and
nice. Holy cow. Nice. Okay. So, I've got to
figure out my See what I'm doing there? I'm just kind of like trying to I'm
trying to have a third hand. Okay. So, that should be good. Um, my
first thought in this moment is that I
should have maybe added one more row, but I'm not committed to that statement.
I'm not committed to that statement. So, let's finish and we'll see what I think. Um, I thought they were four mill. No,
no, four millimeters are babies. Yeah, they're big guys. They're they're just
delicious. I um at the la the last time I went to
the gym show, the local one, the vendor that I got some tiger's eye from, teal
and black tiger's eye from, had that in 15 mm. I only bought one strand because
it was expensive, but oh my gosh, if he has it again tomorrow, I don't know. I might I might
get dangerous. Oh, you sent me a picture. Okay, cool. Um, okay. So, I've
got to make a knot here. And so, for right now, I'm just going to do one.
So, just getting all of these guys out here because I I don't want to um do
more than because I got to get this big old guy in through here. So, let's just see. Very carefully. Whoops. Very
carefully, I'm going to pull So, you can just kind of come over here and pull these guys.
There we go. I was like, where's that one loose? That one loose one. I'm still There you
go. There's the other one. Okay. So, let's let's see what's going to happen. Okay. Okay, I got to get this
out of my way cuz it's like making me
Okay, so we're going to come over here. Oh, it's going to be perfect. Okay, I would not have needed another Oh my
heck. Oh my goodness.
And it feels so delicious. I'm totally wearing this tomorrow to show off.
cuz the guy that I got these from, he's totally going to be there. I mean, look what I did with y'all beads.
So cool. So, I'll I'll definitely go and like clean up all of thisness, you know,
trim up my um trim up my ends. I I
usually do leave these tails. And you could totally if you have a bead that
will string on here, that would also look pretty cool. So like you could finish you could finish these warp
threads off with some beads. You just have to have a hole that's big enough. Um and I do think that my choice
with um with the way that I tucked the warps back into the holes there, I'm I'm
good with that. So, I'm I will go back in here and clean up. I might I might do
a little wire wrapping um of the cords under here. Just I don't know yet. I
don't know yet. I I have to see which glue might might be leather friendly.
The hypo might be okay. I'm not sure. But yeah, look at how cool. Okay, I'm going to come up and then we'll do like
a um we'll do like an appropriate
appropriate sendoff with
Okay, so let's see what we got here. Let's scooch this guy out of the way
so it doesn't look like it's growing through my
I'm really liking the button with this, too. And then let's turn this around.
So pretty. Yeah, Sheila. She Sheila, do that. Make
sure you watch from the beginning. Um, so this is a great example. We started
at four. I wouldn't say maybe a few minutes of chat in the beginning, not
too many. And now it's 4:45. So once you get your rhythm down on these
and you're not doing a demo and trying to, you know, hold conversation and you
can like make a mess and all that stuff, you should be able to get these done in in
I'm going to say 30 minutes. Like I'm going to challenge you on that. Um, not important if you don't care.
But if you are selling, if you're making and you're selling, you want to have like less production time. So, um, you
could you could make a pretty penny off of these. You all, you know, I'm your girl for making money. I always like to
I always like to do the math so that I can help you with that. Um, you want to
see I just I can't believe I just did that. I just picked up my cloth and all the
beads. Thank god they didn't go off. I'm such a goober. Okay, so we have those.
And then let's take a look at these. These are also super rad. Look at how
pretty these are. Oh, I got to do a bracelet now on these. So, this is like
black and pink and all kinds of deliciousness.
Oh, you're so sweet, Heather. Look at these. So, these are in the shop as well. 30% off. And these are like a
black pink. Oh my god, they're so good. I got beads all over the place. All
right, so we got those. Let me put them back into the their bag before I like
[Applause] And then these are super gorgeous, too. These are like um a fun multicolor. Look
at these.
The matte amethyst. Yeah. So, this is all agot, but there's
amethyst in the shop. There's tiger's eye in the shop. There's
um some higherend ones, everything is 30%
off. So, whether you're looking at the $6 strands or the I think there's one in
there for like 50 bucks. I don't know what I was thinking. It was pretty. It was pretty.
It's better deal though when it's 30% off, right?
A Lina. Okay, check this out. So, this is the dark brown multimix. That is so
sexy and gorgeous. Super super pretty.
And then I have Well, this one I got because I felt like this was our
bracelet. This was our jewel loom. This is our jewel loom, right? This is
the jewel loom beaded bracelet. Like we all need to just have one of these and be like jewel,
right? Look at how cool. So gorgeous. Again, it's all agot. Um so there's like
several different options in there. Um what's happening? What else is
happening? Automatic code save 30% off all the gemstones. I think there's like
40 something gemstones in there right now. I'm going to a gym show tomorrow to
hopefully find more goodness. Um, building out some of the creative soul
kits for next year and realized I have three more months of
some two-hole amazingness. January is going to just be un stinking real. I'm
trying to pick up all my beads so they don't go on the floor since I just so carelessly.
They look They do look big, but look, they're not. That's the crazy thing.
That is the crazy thing. They just really like when you look at this and you look at the 6 millm bracelets,
they're actually just not. I'm kind of surprised.
They look really um it looks really good. I think they just probably look big. I don't know. Maybe because they're
all bunched up in a photograph. I'm not sure. Um, okay. I'm just trying to save
save the gemstones. Ah, hold my calls. Okay.
Okay. All right. So, I know she you like big. Go big or go go go home. Hello,
Blue Sapphire Studio. You should go give her a follow. She has a YouTube channel as well. I love that.
Okay, so I am, as I mentioned, look at all this.
Oh my gosh, look at all this. Look at all this. Okay, so I'm doing
whatnot. Whitnot.
And the the channel over there is Juliana Jewels. One big old
delicious word. That is my channel. Okay. Um, what happens over there is
that we have fun. We have fun with uh an auction style
sale. And so we'll start some beads off at like $2. Some beads will be at $3.
Some beads might be at $5. And if you say, "Oo, I really want that." And you
place a bid for two bucks. Well, then somebody else comes in and they raise it to three bucks.
um sometimes, not a lot of times. So, a lot of people have been getting some really great
deals. I mean, we it's kind of been a little crazy to watch uh some of the
deals, but we want to do it for you. So, uh John and I have been working together
to get all of this picked out for you. And now I he's been doing it from
Chicago, but now I'm doing it from California. But look at all of this fabulosity. So, you sign up. It's It's all on
It's just like when you go to my shop, like as far as safety, um you know, credit card safety, whatnot
has been around for years. It's um uh Gary Vee is like a big fan of it. There
are many people, most of the people that are on there are doing
they're doing things like um Christmas stuff, dollar sneakers, the
laboo thing. Am I even saying that right? Cuz I don't know. Um what else?
And then there are people there selling beads. It's a it's a big beautiful community. There are crafters on there
selling craft stuff. And um again, it's all legit. It's all like don't think
your credit card's going to be compromised. Like it's it's all
secure. All those words. It's that. So, we're going to be doing that at 5:15. So, in
the next what 15 plus 25 minutes, I'm going to be live over there. Uh John's
going to join me from the Carolas and we just, you know, we just go until
people want to go and then we're bye-bye. So right now,
uh we'll be doing this after every Jewel Loom School live on Thursdays at 5:15
California time. And then periodically, uh we'll probably jump in randomly. What
you do is you when you um you follow you you need to follow me over there at
Juliana Jewels and then you get alerted when I'm going to go live and then you tag the show so that you know you know
you know when I'm on just like you do here on the YouTube. So if you want to
partake in that, you don't have to. I'm just telling you what's happening because I don't want you to get upset
that you don't know everything. Yeah, Robert says, "Awesome deals."
Totally awesome deals. Don't forget to click the like button. Thank you, my love. Yes, click the like button. If you
have ordered from us, make sure you leave a review. Um,
and yes, follow. I think you can share the channel, too. And um, yeah, awesome.
Thank you, Lorenna. Yeah, so myisha has been coming over. Jod's been coming over. We've been getting to know both of
them very well and it's been really fun. And honestly, like sometimes people just hang out and look at the beads. Like
we're here for you. We want to share good prices and um and great quality.
These beads are vintage check beads. Some of them
are like 30 years old and the coloring is not made anymore or like the shape of
the bead will not be made anymore. And really the big big thing is that the
length of the strand like back in the day, remember how long the strands were
and now they're like this. Um, so we got all that over there. And uh, so yeah,
it's all good stuff. What else? Oh my gosh, I think I need to change shipping from Chicago to
California. John, if you're listening, maybe you could go do that.
But I have 15 minutes so I could go do that. Okay, please um yeah, come join. Just peek in and see what it's all
about. The link that I shared earlier, let's see if it's still in my copy paste.
Awesome sauce. Here it comes. And then I'll run it across.
I'll run it across. How do you do that? Do you do that? Yeah, that's what you do. I think if you use that one, that's
the one that gets you like a credit in your whatnot account. and then and then
you get to use that for purchases. So,
it's a pretty fun thing. It's it's different, you know. Um, and none of
this over here will be in the Jewel Loom shop. This does not go in the shop. This is strictly whatnot. And the reason
being is like they're limited strands. I don't want to spend my whole entire
life putting all of this into the shop. It's way too much. Way too much. So, so
anything you see on the whatnot is not going to be um
in the jewel shop. Now, I am going to try to keep it that way. So, don't get
mad at me. I might have like a gemstone show. That's the only thing that might be different.
That's the only thing that might be different. So, don't get mad at me if I do that. If I do that, it's because I
bought a bunch of gemstones tomorrow.
And I just want to share the value with you and the good deal. So, I should never say I'm never going to do
anything. It's kind of like when I said I'm not going to make any more looms and now I don't know what's the Juloom family. How many kids do we have? I'm
counting. How many kids do we have now? Like 14. I don't know. I can't help it.
I tell Robert, "Robert, blah blah blah." He's like, "Got it." So, okay. I adore
each and every one of you. I'm so grateful for you showing up and um go
make a bracelet. Whatever. You know, you don't have to go buy anything. Just go make a bracelet. If you got beads at
home, go weave something. It makes you feel good. I'm stoked about this. I wonder if it's
going to fit his wife. She's little. She's little. Little boo boo from Japan
and adorable. So anyway, we'll see.
I could probably whip one up for her if it doesn't fit.
Okay, I'm going to go and do the do things in 15 minutes to be ready to meet you over on Whatnot. And um and that's
my story. So, thank you for being here. Next Thursday, uh Danielle and I will be doing the
December Creative Soul. And I think there are only a few of those kits left and they're gorgeous.
So, all right you guys, I'll see you either in whatnot or internet world or
next week. But regardless, take care. Be blessed. I love you. Okay, I'll see you.
Bye.
Okay. Whoop. Where are we going? I don't have my Joanie. Okay. End stream.
