You are the first maker I have seen to address the lighter clasp problem. I've watched so many videos and seen so many bracelet pictures with unbecoming clasps that will always be the most visible part of the bracelet. It's hard for me to understand an experienced beader who thinks it's okay to just slap on something to keep a bracelet on. The clasp must be an integral part of the piece, and not just a line of crimp beads and alligator clasps. KUDOS to you.

What a wonderful, solid beaded bracelet; with so many ways to vary it and make it individual. Thank you for sharing that marvelous story of your Mom, too! Love it!!❤❤❤❤

Fantastic; got so many ideas floating around my head already and not got enough hands! Thank you.

Thanks for the lovely video, Jill. I think I am a fairly experienced beader but it was great to watch a detailed 'beginner' tutorial to remind myself of the right way to do things. I love these bracelets and have made several but really appreciate your tips on making them more easily and with a very pretty result. Thank you!

Thank you, Jill! This is so beautiful and looks like fun. It’s going to be my next project. Thank you for these free tutorials!!! Btw, I’ve been beading for over a year now and this was the first time I’ve ever heard the reason for using a new thread for the clasp. It makes so much sense! I will definitely be doing that in the future. ❤❤❤

It's so perfect to show off those chips!

This reminds me of a bracelet I did when I began beading years ago. I bought a kit and it really helped me learn as I had no stash at that time!

I love this bracelet design. I’ve got lots of chip beads, that one is my favorite.

Jill, absolutely loved this video of yours. Can’t wait to make this bracelet. Thank you for such detailed information and instructions.

Back to the jewelry bench I go. Thanks Jill for the inspiration and renewing my love of beading.

Several years ago I bought two bracelets of this same type in Silverton Colorado. Now I can make my own! And I have tons of size 11 seed bead mixes! Thank you so much for sharing this pattern. I'm very excited.

I'm so excited about this design and free pattern ❣️ This is the pattern I didn't know I couldn't live without, but I do now! 💙 WOW 😁🤗

I've used square stitch, but just to make beaded bails so far. Time to take square stitch to the next level now, as there's quite a few gemstone chips in the stash just begging to become lovely bracelets! 😄

Jill I also love the bracelet you are wearing in the video!❤️

I love this design. Thank you Jill

Great tutorial as always, Jill! Thank you.

Love this kind of bracelet. Thanks for sharing.

Such a beautiful bracelet! Thank you for your creativity and the tutorial.

Wow! Love this! And I have all those pearls I bought at preciosa, what great timing!❤️

The elegant elements slider clasps work very well if you use size 8 seed beads for the base. I love those because you only need to slide it over the beads without having to do any stitching

Absolutely true, and I wish I'd thought to mention them in the video!

I use the smallest size of the elegant elements as they are pretty wide. I have even tried only using size 8 seed beads for the last 2 rows to attach the clasp but use size 6 seed beads for the base because it is quicker to square stitch and embellish with the size 6 seeds. They just don't fit inside the sliders

I am definitely going to make some form of the Treasure Bracelet!❤️

Thank You! Can't wait to try!

You are an artist

Where have you been miss Jill? Missed you.

Lovely bracelet and lovely tutorial from a lovely person , I have a lil question dear if we want to make it with all the seed beads like you made one then what is the ratio u used for the loops because mine looks sparce compared to ur lovely caterpillar type bracelet

So pretty and looks very addictive. I love the colors in the sample and also the one that was all seed bead mix. On the all seed bead one, do you do a one strand fring on every base seed bead to make it more full? Thanks for this great project.

@JillWisemanDesigns

Жыл бұрын

I had to go grab the sample to look! No, I still did 3 loops on one row and 2 on the other. There's no reason why you couldn't do them over every base bead to fatten it up. This project is very flexible and customizable!

Note to self if you make it wider (like 11 beads) be prepared for it to use a LOT of beads

@JillWisemanDesigns

Жыл бұрын

It definitely eats beads (and thread!)

I love the freshwater pearl ones and have a big bag of them in various colours so will definitely be attempting that. When you use different size pearls do you alter the number of seed beads on the loops? Thank you!

@JillWisemanDesigns

Жыл бұрын

You can play with the number of beads in the loops until you get the look you desire. The more seed beads in the loop, the more movement you'll get with it which can be really fun. Fidget bracelet!

Do you ever use Delica beads for loops instead of seed beads?

Can you use a single hole clasp? Or will that not work?

how many seed beads did you use in each loop, in the all seed beads variation?

Oh can you use chip beads?

@JillWisemanDesigns

Absolutely - that's what is on that pink sample - rose quartz chips.

How do you end this and attach the clasp?
