Jill you are such a wonderful teacher! I love your videos! ❤️. I love these bracelets and have not made one yet. I like the idea of thread and I haven’t seen anyone else show them with thread. Going to look at Tilas now. Thank you so much! Shari

You are so welcome! You made my day with your sweet words!

I love your videos!!!!! You are so explicit and detailed for the beginner! Thank you!!! BTW….love your hair style!!!!

Love Tilas and these bracelets! Jill always gives the best suggestions on how to complete a project. One thing I've done to make these bracelets more flexible when making these bracelets is to to add delicas every inch or so or more often if you want. It helps with the flexibility. Thank you Jill for being the best teacher and for having such a great store.

Great tip! Thanks for sharing it!!

Fabulous tutorial. Just what I was looking for. Thank you, Jill.

Thank you, Jill. I love the color combos they have for tila beads. Those are great tips for those of us who struggle with stretch cord/string. I have seen bangles done with tila beads on memory wire so maybe you could also include that if you are comfortable with it.

I've done stretchy Tila bracelets but never bead weaving. Have to say I much prefer your bead weaving technique! Since I'm also a fan of the ball and socket clasp, we have a winner here!! Thanks :)

Lovely little bracelet. Thanks, Jill, for sharing the technique for making it with us.

Thank you for the tutorial and pattern. These bracelets are beautiful.

I love making bracelets with tilas. Thanks for this technique!

Thanks Jill, a simple but very effective bracelet!❤ Thanks for sharing this technique

You are awesome thank you for all the sharing you do!! I have learned so much from you!

Thank you Jill for sharing your expertise in Jewelry designing! Im learning so much!❤. I didn’t even know what a Tila bead was! Where have I been! Lol

So pretty and quick too. Thank you Jill❤

And thanks for the in depth research!!

These are all gorgeous ❤

Great tutorial! Love your necklace too❤

I didn't find a link to how to use stretch. I haven't had any luck at all doing the stretch cord and ties/glue ending on two-hole stretch bracelets.

I love your tutorials and your designs. You are a great teacher and a great person!

Thanks Jill. I have been meaning to trial the use of other threads and now I don't need to!

Love this! Thanks for all the tips, Jill!

Thank you so much! What a lovely compliment! Welcome to our corner of the bead world!

That was fun & very cute, Jill. I’m not see the stretchy cord video. Can you help me? I did watch someone else and she did the crimping & covers 😮😉. I agree, I think the thread will last longer. I’ve been out & about and had a bracelet break. Not fun!

I do love this, but I prefer a printed pattern. Hope you will have this pattern in your 'free patterns' on your website soon.

Oooooo, another fun Tila project! I love how lightweight and smooth they are on my wrist. Definitely going to have to give these a go… next month 😂 i blew my June budget in my last two orders 😂🤣😂💜 I only have two full size Tilas and three half Tilas in my stash and of course I absolutely MUST play with color and pattern (so many possibilities my head is going to explode!) In the meantime I can drool, and fill up my wishlist. Thanks so much Jill.

I wonder how dragon thread would work? It's a tad more flexible than fireline but as much as the one G or Miyuki thread. It might be the perfect in between. I'm not a big fan of dragon thread but there are times that using is a good thing

Hello, Jill! Thanks for confirming some of my concerns about using stretchy cord. May I ask what size needles you used with the Nozue Sonoko thread? Thanks-Kate

Thanks so much for this video. Love your designs. Any chance you could send me the link to the tila stretchy bracelet.

Hi Jill, love the green/bronze bracelet in this video. I was wondering if you could list all of the colors of the green bronze bracelet. I purchased the tilas on your list but ai am short of a couple of colors. Thank you, Sue

I had planned to have kits ready to go with the release of the video, but you know, life happened. And I decided to not hold the video for the kits any longer. So yes, eventually there will be kits....but I can't promise when. The best way to know is to be subscribed to my email list: jillwisemandesigns.com/newsletter/

Is there another beading thread you would recommend for this project since the Hana has been discontinued? I love the bracelets!

@JillWisemanDesigns

Yes - I love One G and Nozue Sonoko threads. I carry both: shop.jillwisemandesigns.com/beading-thread/ I recently started carrying KO thread also as a customer request - there are a lot of folks who LOVE KO. I haven't worked with it a lot yet, but so far I like it.

I am *really* new to beading, so one of the things I've kind of ended up doing is going "ooh, that looks so cool!" ... and then I grabbed a couple of "samplers" (like 5g) of a few things that I've no idea how to use? So. Pinch beads and dragon scale bead. What can I do with them? Do they look good with the various stitches you've shared (I've been marathoning a lot of your videos), and do you have any projects with one or the other?

A wider one can be done, but it would be a more complicated project, and be it's own design.

What the advocates of stretchy cord never mention is that the stretchy cord eventually stretches, becoming limp and leaving gaps between beads. I wouldn't waste my time with it unless I were making a bracelet or quickie project for a young girl. It might also be handy for someone with arthritis who can't handle clasps; but you have to accept that the bracelet will stretch out of shape.

@JillWisemanDesigns

5 ай бұрын

Actually, I DO mention that every time I do a stretch cord video. It's for fast fashion, not for long-term (more than a year or two) jewelry.

Ladies, big tip, I've been using magnet clasps on all of my jewelry. Saves time and trouble putting it on, you don't need 2 hands.
