2:21
very cool becky hi becky and there's miss jones she just popped
2:27
in for us at the bottom to help us out tonight thank you miss jones as always
2:32
um so uh without further ado guys let's get started so let's flip this
2:39
camera around without making you seasick this is so exciting for me
2:44
just takes a minute sometimes just to go to the desk view but it will get there
2:54
and of course that'll fight me well i'm live there there it goes all right
2:59
all right look at this you didn't even have to get all jostled around i'm so excited
3:05
so here is sally guys if you didn't see the pictures of her
3:10
already but this is my sally bracelet this is made with some 80 seed beads i
3:16
use the multi-color hemp on that i also used
3:22
lebano seed beads two different check mixes on this and of course our beautiful sally button i did
3:30
end this with ribbon crimps um and a magnetic clasp and chain um you
3:36
can close it up that way probably tonight um i'll probably just tie it off
3:42
and show you how to put a button on it but this is another way that you can do it and if you're questioning on how to do
3:49
the ribbon crimp pens i did do multiple videos on the lives where i showed how
3:54
to finish the ends that way so okay a couple more people paddy's here
4:01
helena from new york oh my gosh guys you
4:06
are yay sally she's pretty it's so great to see you guys okay so as always for me
4:14
most of the time i am using um the original jewel loom
4:19
and please keep in mind when you're using your original jewel loom it is flexible not bendable i just try to
4:26
drive that into everyone's head because i'm as guilty as the next guy um for being a little rough on them so what i'm
4:33
going to do here guys is i'm going to take our rod i'm going to place that here in the bottom
4:39
and i'm going to take this end right here and i'm just gonna push it into my tummy a little bit you can't see my tummy but it's there and i'm just gonna
4:46
give this top just a little flex and there we have our rod in okay and
4:53
you can see how that does that bows the loom so when you take this rod out after
4:59
you've worked it's going to give you a nice tense warp so it's much easier to work with
5:05
okay so i also i'm going to be using wildfire of course today this is the red color
5:12
and the 0.006 and of course i have my buttons laying here these are eight o's that i'm using
5:19
for the base these are called transparent rainbow ruby very very pretty
5:25
and then i'll go over our lemons once we get there i got something in my bottle there that's not supposed to be there
5:31
but we're going to use i love this multi-color hemp that jules has to make these bracelets they're super fun
5:38
and it really just brightens up the bracelet so i'm going to take that multi-color
5:44
hem but this is the one millimeter guys you could use the thinner if you'd like to but i really want this to kind of pop
5:51
out so i'm using the thicker so i went up if you saw me that's a habit there
5:56
i'm going wrapping around my knob twice and then i'm just going to take and tie
6:02
a good knot so i have everything nice and snug on there
6:07
because this is gonna be what helps you keep everything
6:12
from slipping around okay so we have a nice good tight knot on there so i'm gonna turn it over and as i'm turning it
6:19
over i'm going to bring my hemp into one of the grooves here now i'm not too
6:25
particular on what groove i put it into to start and especially even on the other side
6:30
i'm going to pull this across and keep the tension on everything i'm doing and then i put it in approximately the same
6:36
place that i have it on the other side okay i'm going to bring it around and you can
6:41
see as i'm turning it here you can see it's sideways and i'm going to grab that button with my hemp and we're gonna skip
6:49
one groove because we are using eight o's so we're gonna leave one groove between eight
6:55
each warp okay just gonna get that into the one i want it
7:00
we have one groove skipped i don't want my looks like my head's going to get knotted up on me so i'm going to just pull that out
7:08
last thing you want is some knotted hemp that's for sure
7:13
and i just rolled this neatly before i started you know so just let me get that figured out here
7:19
guys for a second
7:26
and cheryl's here hi cheryl does somebody want to come over and help
7:32
me with my knot there we go
7:42
patience is a virtue tricia right i have to keep patience
7:49
now guys you can change the colors up on this of course you can do it to your
7:54
taste and you can also use different buttons if you like to like a different style
8:02
and you could do this to make any um
8:07
type of bracelet that you wanted to put have that center piece on oh my gosh
8:13
look at this [Music] oh it was neat i promise
8:20
i'll tell you what we're gonna do guys if this doesn't come out soon we're gonna get a different piece
8:30
you know and i've been working with this all day and it hasn't done anything good luck it's like it's like the devil came
8:36
in so let me just cut this off but we'll use the other one millimeter colorful
8:42
that i have okay that will keep me from going insane
8:47
all right so let's cut that off and we're going to get another view of how to hook it onto our loom
8:55
all right now you better behave yourself this is another colorful option that jules offers and see he's wanting to
9:01
start too let's get him out of there before he even gets any other ideas
9:09
there we go perfect so i'm just going to go ahead and tie
9:14
this back on here wrap around twice
9:19
nice snug knots
9:26
there's always a something that disagrees with you when you're on alive i think sometimes
9:37
okay get my notes in there all right now back over and i'm going into that
9:43
and groove taking across and here is where we were we're going to grab that knob on the back
9:51
and bring it up over and we're going to skip one groove go across
9:57
and you can see i flipped my loom in my hand to get to this end and then we're going to skip
10:03
another groove and we're going to grab on to that knob on the back
10:09
and another groove we're going to go in here and skip one more there
10:16
okay and one there and do the same thing flip it back around there we go we're going
10:24
he's starting to get ideas but we're gonna put that in check and we're gonna skip
10:30
one more here keep that attention guys i can't say that enough and you can see on our
10:36
bracelet we have four beads across so what that means is we're gonna need five works so
10:43
we're on number four now we're going to bring that across
10:48
same thing skip one wrap around the knob
10:53
and this is our last work we're going to skip one and bring it across here
11:01
just like so and keeping that tension what i do is i'll pull the string around the back and
11:08
i put my left thumb on it while i'm wrapping this
11:13
around the knob a few times before i tie it off and then i transfer that pressure over
11:19
to here so i can cut it
11:25
just like so and then i'm just gonna go under the warps
11:30
with my string it's hard to see because my hands there but we'll go under the warps
11:36
and then i'm gonna go hold on to this this string over here and we're going to
11:43
take this string and put it up through that loop and tie that baby off
11:49
okay and i'm also going to put two knots in this because it's just
11:55
better that way i feel like it's more secure okay so there's one once you get that one in
12:01
there then you can leave up on keeping all that pressure on it and we're gonna do the same thing just slip it
12:06
underneath the warps around
12:13
and through okay so the base is gonna be fairly simple
12:20
guys it's just your aos and it's going to just be solid 8 0s because
12:27
you really the the core of this bracelet is our loops and our sally button that really make it
12:34
pop so now i'm going to take my rod out and i'm going to push this into my tummy again
12:39
just a little bit give it a little flex we're going backwards from when we started and see
12:45
my bottom one came out first but most of the time your top one will pop out when you do that but it's just
12:51
the angle of that metal on that top one so here is
12:56
our warp this one kind of popped over a little bit but we got it and we're gonna start with our eight o's
13:03
we're gonna do four crossed come on buddy any ideas
13:13
so we're gonna start with the four crossed here and you're gonna want to take
13:18
probably about two arms fans of your wildfire and that's gonna give you enough to get
13:25
your eight o's laid in i have a piece of thread that i have
13:30
here and i'm just gonna go ahead and thread my needle it's a shorter piece because i'm not going to be
13:38
doing uh all the steps on one piece one loom
13:43
okay so i'm just gonna thread that
13:51
which i wanted to do before we started because you you guys know there we go it did great for us that time
13:59
and then i'm just going to take the end of the string and i'm going to
14:07
tie this on our left left most warp okay
14:12
i'm going to tie it twice tie it twice
14:18
oh lord help me and i'm gonna lay out our really cute
14:23
beautiful beads i use a crochet hook to put them back or move them
14:29
works great put them back oh your your works that's a great idea
14:38
okay so i'm just going to put out our red beads that we have here you can see i've been using these like
14:44
crazy and i'm just going to pick up four of those beads
14:49
for my eatos
14:55
and i know most of you have this part down to a science but where you we will
15:00
do a few rows of it just because there are beginners out there
15:06
we want to make sure they understand all the steps okay and i'm just going to push those up
15:11
through between those warps there okay
15:17
and then i'm going to take my needle and i'm going to bring it up and around my thread and my needle and we're going to
15:22
go across because we pushed up from underneath our thread is now running under so we're going to go across these warps
15:29
and you're making sure that your needle stays on top of the works and goes
15:34
through your beads okay and there you go
15:40
and you can see how i have that the needle you can see the metal between each bead you know you're doing it right
15:47
then because you can see that metal and you know that needle is on top what will happen if you don't do it that
15:53
way and you miss a bead or you go under or what not your bead your beads will just pop back
15:59
out so you'll have to redo it they'll pop right out on you so so there's our first row
16:06
okay now we're going to pick up four more
16:16
and i'm going to take my needle and shuttle it across here i drop my beads down and i use my finger and just sort of
16:23
guide everything and then my beads come along and i just hold that back
16:28
until i get to a short enough length that i can go ahead and put those beads
16:33
up through those warps okay
16:39
and then we're going to take again we're going to take our thread and needle and we're going to go over
16:44
top of the warps and through the beads
16:50
yes i am using multi-color hat nicole it is so cute i love it
16:57
it just really makes this piece especially pop i really like it so we're going to do that again we're
17:03
just going to do our four beads
17:14
and push them up through and i find if you keep fingers laying on your loom like so
17:21
it'll keep it from be bopping around as much for you because a lot of times if you don't
17:26
you'll see it's just moving and moving and moving and that can get pretty annoying you're welcome nicole
17:33
it's nice to see you here with us tonight okay
17:39
let's do a few more then we're going to get into the big
17:44
guns of the project so four more
17:50
how's everybody feeling about this part let me know if you want me to just keep going
18:00
oops
18:05
okay and again going under the loom pushing up between the warps
18:12
like so and then pulling it through
18:29
how's everybody feeling about that pretty good
18:34
yeah this is the relaxing part nicole this is just like therapy going the whole way up there but
18:42
so there you go that's the concept and you're just gonna continue that until you get to three inches
18:50
once you get to three inches you're going to run a row and leave one bead out of it
18:56
so basically let's say this was a three inches worth here because our half of whatever length you need say if
19:04
you you make your bases seven inches long then you're going to want a three and a half inch and that that point is where
19:10
you're going to want to do the bead that you're going to leave out so half of whatever size you
19:17
traditionally make your bases before putting on the clasp etc so what we're
19:22
going to do guys we're gonna need something for our button shank to go down through so it lays nicely
19:29
and hooks in well so basically all you would do is this time we're gonna pick up three beads
19:35
we're gonna say this is halfway through the project
19:40
i'm at three inches okay i'm going to only pick up three beads this time
19:48
and i'm going to do the same thing underneath like so
19:54
but we're going to put one bead in the first one
20:00
one bead in the third one on one bead and the fourth one and your string's still there but that's not going to be a
20:07
problem and then we're going to just stitch it across just like we would always do
20:12
all right i'll hold this up so you can see it
20:17
so look we're just leaving an empty spot
20:23
easy peasy you can just push your button shank right down through that and then once you do that you can just
20:29
continue on with your base okay so that is the basics on that
20:38
now here's a base that i did that is completed i made this one black because
20:43
i think i'm going to put jack on this one but this is the hemp that i started out using these are the colors in it
20:50
and you can see that i did half of my bracelet i left one bead out and then continued
20:58
okay so what we're going to do now is we're going to start our loops
21:04
and then put our button on okay so i'm just going to take some more
21:10
thread i'm going to thread my needle for this i probably would only do about
21:16
one wingspan cut that and you all know the trick of flattening
21:22
the end of the cord with your pliers so it goes in
21:27
easier to the needle
21:33
go go trish my favorite color lemon squeezy zack you're silly
21:40
you're funny so we got her now our
21:46
anyway so what i did guys is from this middle point i counted back seven on each side
21:54
okay it's as simple as that once i counted back to seven i counted back two
21:59
more rows and you only do this when you start because you want to be able to weave your thread in a little bit so you can
22:06
go back and tie it off okay so we're going to go this is gonna be against everything you
22:13
know so let's count one two three four five six seven
22:18
eight nine so i'm gonna come in from the right side on that ninth row and i'm gonna go
22:24
across i'm just bringing my thread through
22:30
and i'm going to leave a little towel because we want to be able to tie that off when we're done
22:36
and then i'm going to go step up here and go through the left
22:41
side of the eighth row okay
22:49
and that through just like so so now i have some room to
22:55
groove there and then i'm going to come back through on this right side and i'm going to go
23:00
through two beads and come out through that second and that third bead
23:06
does everybody know what i'm saying there you can see i'm coming up between the second and the third bead because you
23:13
have to do that for your loops so you can work them comfortably all right so there's our red beads these
23:20
are some gorgeous gorgeous colors that jules has for this fun bracelet
23:28
so i'm just gonna put out some of our lemonos just some of each
23:35
and you can pick whatever colors make you happy you know
23:40
am i dumping my eights i'm dumped on my eggs that's not what i want
23:47
eight ten elevens in there and then some yellow
23:57
okay gorgeousness and then i'm gonna grab some orange here
24:05
and i did put some black in on my other one that i made that you're gonna see our finished project and apparently i did
24:12
not bring the lemon blacks up here which doesn't matter you can use any combination of colors that you want on
24:17
this bracelet i did not incorporate any black on the uh loops so
24:23
and then i have two different check mixes here this one is the new halloween
24:29
mix that jules has and i am in love with it it's so awesome
24:36
i think she said she got that and she wasn't sure which what she was gonna do with it and i'm like oh my gosh girl
24:41
that's perfect for halloween and then i have our green mix that i grabbed because i like to put the pops of green
24:47
into it just sort of brightens everything up so i'm just going to pour those out a little bit of those
24:54
because you want to get everything ready before you're ready to do your loops because all you want to do is just grab
25:00
what you need there yes thank you i'm glad you think it is perfect colors for jack and sally
25:08
i just watched that movie yesterday as i posted i stinking love that baby
25:15
so okay so now what we're gonna do i'm gonna do consistent loops the whole way
25:20
up i'm doing four seed beads and play around with this guys
25:26
you know you don't have to be perfect you don't have to have the same pattern on either side that's what the
25:34
fun part of this is that you can really have fun and make this just really
25:39
[Music] interesting okay so what i'm gonna do i put my four eleven o's on
25:46
i'm gonna grab a green bead there's no rhyme or reason to what beads i'm grabbing here guys and keep that in
25:52
mind that's what makes this so cool is it's not this perfect
25:58
you know um piece it's just ragtag kind of like sally's dress you
26:06
know so i'm gonna pick up four more
26:11
if i can here there we go two three four and i didn't even pay
26:17
attention to the order of it all i see is a bag of candy corn that is
26:23
exactly what i thought it just reminded screaming halloween so we came out between that second and that third bead
26:30
there guys okay and now i'm going to go back over and i'm going to go through this first bead
26:36
again and take this across and go through the second through third and
26:43
through the fourth out the other side all right
26:49
and we're just gonna pull our string until we get our little loop we won't
26:55
want our thread getting caught in there and there you go there's your first loop
27:03
okay so now i'm coming out on this other side so usually i'll flip my loom it just makes it easier for me
27:10
and then i'm gonna pick up four more seed beads
27:18
two three four let's do four green on one side and
27:23
four orange on one side so we'll pick up our middle bead
27:32
and then put forearm john and remember guys have fun with this
27:38
this is this is what this project is about having a good time making it and enjoying it for halloween
27:45
all right so here we go this is what i picked up and that's coming out that
27:52
first speed there the fourth bead whatever side you're on but it's going to be the first bead be for me because i
27:58
flipped my loom okay so i'm dropping those beads down and i'm going to come over
28:05
and i'm going to go back through it's hard to see
28:10
that second bead and out that first bead on that side or third or fourth bead however you want to look at
28:17
it guys but you're doing like half and half now the reason i'm doing this consistently
28:23
and doing a loop on either side is because when we go to put our button in we're going to
28:28
want our our loops to kind of spread down a little bit we want them to kind of evenly
28:35
go out and the reason is is because i don't like sewing the button on before
28:40
i do loops i like to put it on last because that gives you like that full filling of those loops under that button
28:46
and i think it just looks so much better so now i'm going to drop down to the next row
28:53
and i'm going to go through the first and through the second
28:58
and now we're going up between the second and third and coming out here
29:04
all right let's get everything nice and snug
29:11
and same process there are so many fun beads in these mixes let me get this orange one down
29:17
here so you can really see it too i love it it has red and orange and yellow
29:23
some clear some pink super fun so
29:31
let's get four more on here
29:37
let's put one of these spiky beads on like that these are so cool
29:49
oh yes that's right joan you did find the nightmare before christmas buttons at walmart that's awesome
29:57
so you're just again i'm just having fun guys just pick up
30:03
whatever pattern you want or non i'm going to do two yellows in a row on
30:09
this one just to kind of keep things interesting
30:14
so now i'm coming out between that second and third i'm gonna go back around and go through the first the
30:21
second the third and the fourth
30:27
okay
30:33
and four more and that is basically the idea in the loop so i'm going to keep doing some
30:38
more for you here but it's it's a it's a simple way to embellish any bracelet you
30:44
could also do loops out guys if you wanted to you know how sometimes we make projects and we have loops coming out
30:50
the side of the bracelets that really makes it that would be super cool too take it up a notch you know not just
30:57
loops on top so what is i've never watched oh vicky says i have
31:03
never watched this movie but i have several cat pins
31:09
i wore on my uniform apron that i think would work and i can use the pins
31:14
now that i am retired there you go thinking outside the box girl
31:21
but do keep in mind too guys if you are interested in the buttons dress it up has a wonderful selection on their
31:27
website there is everything you can dream of on there
31:35
let's do let's pick up an orange square that looked fun and then we're going to do just all
31:41
yellow on this one side
31:46
okay oh i'm a list
31:52
well you can always order what you need and uh watch the replay
31:57
so i'm going back into that third and out the fourth okay
32:07
there's four and now i'm gonna flip it just makes my life easier and i'm gonna go into the
32:14
next row in through the first the second and out between the second
32:19
and the third any questions guys
32:26
do you have an idea on the the loops here is that gonna do you need any
32:32
thing explain better how are you feeling about it
32:38
okay so we put our four
32:43
oh i like this pink flower let's play with that a little bit huh look at that
32:48
not cute that's the nice thing about these check mixes oh that goes right through the
32:54
center of the flower oh yeah there it does that is so cool
33:00
the check makes this has such a different variety in give you lots of choices
33:08
thanks maria okay so now i'm gonna flip it here because i'm gonna go on that other side
33:16
i'm gonna go through here i'm coming up between second and first because i'm right-handed it just works for me to
33:21
flip it on the side that i'm working you know so i'm going through those two beads
33:27
through the third and fourth and coming out the other side
33:35
okay
33:40
pick up four more [Music]
33:52
and an accent bead let's do another green we haven't done a green for a while
34:00
those little pops of that green i don't know it just does something for the piece
34:05
just really makes it sing but these bright 11 0's i am in love
34:13
with we use these on um a project with our creative soul box
34:18
these colors and just they're just lovely
34:24
so i'm going through the third and the fourth and coming out the other side
34:34
so let's get our loops finished up here i'm going to work up to where this
34:40
opening is here for you so we can i can show you how to sew the button on
34:46
easily and then into that next row between
34:52
second and third
35:01
yes that certainly is we did use the least amount of the yellow and orange that's a very good point my friend
35:26
oh boy i got a little carried away on that didn't i i put all the seed needs on there we go
35:33
now we need to pick up a piece of czech glass let's see what color are we needing in there
35:39
bright orange i think
35:47
yeah i think this movie is so fun this would be so cute to wear to mickey's not
35:52
so scary halloween yes it would and they do have um mickey halloween buttons too
35:59
guys i actually have some right beside me here i can't wait to use them
36:07
so they're all they're just adorable and yes sally would be gorgeous jack would be gorgeous just
36:14
so fun and so i'm just going to go through my first
36:21
through my second a third and my fourth what that little bug thing he's doing
36:26
taking the limelight all right
36:43
let's put yellow in there so as i work up closer
36:49
when i get uh one row on either side on this side coming into
36:56
the row that we did our opening i would just start using seed beads there
37:01
because that way then it gives you a little bit more ease to be able to get in there and sew your button on at least
37:08
that's what i found that works well when you build it up with a lot of heavy
37:13
checked glass it's hard to get in there now if you wanted to you could sew your button or put your pin on or whatever
37:20
prior um to sewing your loops i just don't like the way that looks
37:27
i like it when it looks really full underneath
37:37
okay what do we got you're working with the shank style button what about a two or four hole b my brain stopped
37:45
working i'm eating water a two or four
37:52
i don't know what you mean like for uh for your um focal piece is in the middle is that
38:00
what you're thinking or do you mean a four-hole bunk button
38:10
oh okay amber was my interpreter she figured it out thank you amber [Music]
38:16
yes he's my girl for that all right so i just flipped it over
38:21
again let's get
38:27
let's see how we're doing on time i'll tell you what guys we're going to pretend we did our rows here and i'm
38:33
going to go to the row right next to it next to where our hole was left
38:39
and i'm going to go in there and go between the second and the third we're going to pretend all those others
38:46
are done there because i want to be able to show you everything and i just pick up 10 seed
38:51
beads guys because i'm we would normally be doing eight but then i'm filling in an extra two for the piece of czech
38:58
glass that would be there okay
39:09
right so here are 10 seed beads
39:14
and you can do it this way uh if you'd like you can put the czech glass in like i said i just feel like
39:20
this works a lot better and i'm going back through that first one second one third and fourth
39:26
like we've been doing so we're going to do eight seed beads with our czech glass
39:34
loops and then when we get to one row on either side of the the row that we left
39:39
with the open space we're going to do 10 seed beads on both on all those loops
39:45
okay is that making sense to everybody
39:50
there's one two
40:09
all right and then we're gonna go in
40:14
to those beads and put a loop through the third and four put your needle through the third
40:20
and fourth and that gives you your cv now in the interest of time i have done
40:27
the same thing on my bracelet where i went into the one
40:33
loop or the one cv beside the open space that we left and the two and did loops
40:38
there as well but now i'm just going to show you how i sew the button on
40:44
so you can choose to do this right in the middle when you're working or at the end
40:49
and just put it on top that's what i like to do but i'll leave that up to you guys because
40:54
you all uh seem to know what you like there so true you ruin your brain does a happy
41:01
dance not great for christ vicky girl so here's jack he's adorable
41:10
and then we have zero that comes with this as well as two jack faces this is a
41:16
simple mix but it is pretty cool so we're going to take jack
41:23
and we're going to push these seed beads to the side sort of get everything kind of move out of the way
41:29
because we want jack to be able to lay in there and i'm just going to take that shank that's on the back and i'm gonna kind of
41:36
wiggle him down through that hole now i know that's gonna be really hard
41:42
to see because the shank is black but it is coming through
41:48
where we left that space okay and it doesn't go real deep through
41:54
there but it does give you enough that you can catch it so now we were on the top so actually
42:01
i'm gonna go through to the bottom here
42:06
just taking my needle i'm putting it through between the warps
42:14
down through the bottom this is the hard part guys to see i know and of course you know if i haven't you
42:20
have any questions after let me know all right so we're underneath here so
42:26
i'm on either side of the on on the other side of the warp where
42:32
the shank sits so the shank sits here in the middle i'm going to go up between on the other side of that work so that's
42:38
how we're going to attach it we're going to use those warps to be able to sew that on okay and we're not sewing
42:45
through the ham we're sewing around the hem so as i go through i'm gonna go here and
42:51
catch my shank and i say that but you know
43:00
get in there it's a tight situation and you can leave a little room to bring your needle up
43:05
through and then slide it across like so when you're first doing it once you get
43:12
it anchored down and you're trying to put in those last few loops it can get a bit tricky oh
43:18
come on jack don't do this we had a talk before this you said you would be cooperative
43:26
there we go so we got a hold of the shank i'm gonna put it back down through that
43:32
hole all right so he's there now we're just gonna go on
43:38
the other side of the warp okay the other warp
43:45
and i'm gonna come down through there so basically guys i mean this is just
43:50
basic stitching you're just using those works as anchors and just going through
43:57
the button shank to adhere it onto your piece okay
44:02
but you can see you know we don't put the beads there now to go back and put those on
44:08
it would be tricky you could do it but it would be tricky so again
44:14
your choice guys so here we are we're coming out the bottom we're going to go back up
44:20
on the other side of that warp and out underneath jack there
44:25
okay and then find that shank you can kind of
44:32
see it under there and send that needle
44:37
through it and out the other side and i found it only takes maybe three or
44:44
four times through and it's nice and solid so again we're gonna come back on the
44:50
other side of that hemp
44:57
there we go it's coming out through there
45:07
and then across to the other hem and up between so it we have this anchor that's going
45:14
across okay if you your stitches aren't all on
45:20
top of each other that's not a big deal guys it's the back and it's red it matches the threads on the side and also
45:25
matches the hem so here is our strand coming out of our
45:33
needle and we're going to go through that shank out
45:39
and back under and then we're going to see how low he's on there
45:45
okay how's everybody feeling about this i love the red base bracelet you're
45:51
wearing this is the love cuff this was something that jules did for a while and it was very very
45:58
popular so we'll see jack's on there actually pretty sturdy
46:04
so we can go ahead and tie him off and all i'm going to do guys is i'm going to run my needle
46:12
on one side of the hem and then up the other side of it like so
46:18
to tie him off pull my strand most of the way through this is kind of just like when you're stitching with
46:24
regular thread needle and then you go through that loop with your needle
46:29
and tie that off again on one side of the hem
46:38
and across to the other getting a little snug in there
46:46
and then [Music] through the loop
46:53
and then you can just cut that strand
46:59
and your button is attached okay so now that we've done all that
47:05
we would have all our loops and our button on it would be time to take
47:11
your piece off the loom so here's sally looking good as always
47:19
ready to come off the loom so the way you want to do this guys is i'll
47:24
turn my loom over like so and i'm going to keep some fingers on the front
47:30
and i'm going to keep my thumb on the strands so i'm holding
47:36
my loom and holding my loom and the strands on the back we don't want a big fire back
47:42
because this is loaded basically because it's bent and you don't want to
47:47
you know do anything to your piece and you don't want to do anything to your loom so you wanna make sure that this process
47:54
is under control when you're doing this okay so we're just gonna back that off slowly
48:01
so it doesn't go crazy and then we let it go and it just went flat
48:08
like so yeah that would be fun to make a hopeless focus don't think it hasn't
48:14
crossed my mind i watch that every year
48:22
so what i'm going to do here guys now that we have a cut off i'm just going to
48:28
take three strands on one side and
48:33
put tie knot there for us like we always do to make sure nothing comes loose
48:40
feed all three of those strands up through there
48:48
okay and then we're just going to
48:55
do that on all the strands we're going to make me uh
49:00
knots like this okay so i'm just working that down slowly
49:08
to the base i don't want it to get too large so i'm just kind of working it
49:14
down slowly i don't want it too far out but we just have a nice little knot there we're gonna do that on all
49:22
four of these um ends
49:27
okay and it doesn't take but just a minute guys to make your button ends
49:34
as i said if you want to put ribbon crimp ends on there are tons of videos that i've done you can go back and
49:40
reference those and put your ribbon crimp and whatever clasp that you'd like i have a magnetic clasp on the original
49:46
one that i made as i said but you do you as always guys
49:55
i'm just gonna tie these and you're gonna really love what button
50:00
i've selected as the one we're gonna use today because if
50:08
we're gonna do it let's do it right
50:13
if we're gonna make it and we're gonna make it for halloween let's just do it
50:18
so this is our last one i'm just tying a knot in that
50:32
all right so we're all tied whoops put it that way so we can see so what i'm going to use guys is i'm gonna
50:39
use this creepy jack brown button i think that'll be perfect for the piece
50:46
so i'm gonna take the hemp and hope that everything's gonna fit through my
50:52
button well and i'm just going to take these two
50:57
threads and put those through the shank of the button on one side
51:04
oh my gosh can you stand it
51:09
i'm so happy with this right now and then i'm just gonna tie
51:16
a knot there and it's however you want to do it guys
51:23
um you can tie another knot here but i'm afraid that'll extend us out too
51:28
much i just pulled that off to show you but put it back through here
51:34
um it's just tie your button on basically is what this concept
51:41
did i miss the information on how to get jack and sally yeah um if you did honey i can tell you these are just dress
51:47
setup buttons and not just but these are dressed up buttons and they have the jack and sally
51:54
the nightmare before christmas buttons you can get them at dress it up buttons.com or i believe walmart has
52:00
them as well because joan picked up some there this set and they do have bigger sets that you can get on a website only
52:09
this is the jumbo nightmare before christmas set here and it has a lot of different ones and
52:15
depends on how into it you are
52:26
so my fingers aren't cooperating tonight guys i'm tired i apologize i am poot
52:35
we'll get there we always do all right so we have our button on there
52:42
jack i love you now you're going to want to glue your knots of course
52:49
to make sure everything stays where you want it and now we're just going to make a little buttonhole on this side
52:55
and the easiest way you can tie it like i was going to there but i found that if you just take all the threads like so
53:01
all the hem strands and just make a knot big knot with all your
53:08
pieces just make sure you have all through four through there a five excuse me and i just play with
53:15
this knot on the end here i'm leaving it kind of big right now because i want to make sure that my jack's gonna fit through
53:21
there now i'm gonna cut those threads down but so jack will fit i can i can actually
53:28
see that might be kind of perfect actually so we're kind of going to work that knot
53:34
and we're going to tighten it down right where i have it there another cool thing you could do you
53:40
could dangle put bead dangles on the ends of these of any kind
53:46
again that would take it up another notch so i'm just going to cut these threads here so they're manageable these hemp
53:53
threads and that is it and i can't believe we
53:59
did that in an hour but here is sally with her jack button
54:06
let's put jack through the loop here not all right jj b is the one near me
54:14
what happened um stephanie even if they don't have the jesse james beads the buttons are actually in a separate area
54:20
they're in the sewing department and that's it that's jesse james beads sister company is dress setup buttons
54:27
so you may want to just check even if you go online and just type in dress it up buttons they'll come up
54:32
if they're there that walmart but here's jack her button on the back to hold it secure
54:40
and then we have miss sally and when i do finish jack the one that i
54:45
was working on here i will make sure i post it for you guys as well i think he is going to be super fun as well
54:53
so let me get my camera turned back around here guys
55:03
here we are that was so painless i love this thing with the new camera thing
55:10
so as anyone has any questions please let us know they can cuddle together on
55:16
our rest yes they could for sure jack and sally would look so darling
55:22
together wouldn't they there they are together
55:29
i love them so much oh thank you jenny i'm glad you like it i love dangles robin dangle until your heart's content
55:37
that's one nice thing if you're going to use a button closure like we did here you have these strands that you can add
55:43
things to when you just put your ribbon crimps on you have your your ribbon
55:49
crimps and that's it because you're ending that putting the salvage edge on and putting your ribbon crimp on so it's
55:55
whatever you like some people like a neater finish than a button but i just thought that would be super cool so i
56:02
hope you guys enjoyed it this was super fun making
56:07
