Thank you! You have made knotting very easy to follow and understand! I am looking forward to my first restringing project!

I've been trying trying different ways to string, each took so long and was incredibly frustrating until I found your video. THANK YOU for showing me the correct and most efficient way to string beads/Pearls. You truly saved the day : )

This is an incredibly helpful video with clear direction. Thank you!!!

I have the same size baroque pink pearls. Thank you very much for this tutorial. I believe if you take them in to be re-strung it"ll cost between $60-100 dollars depending if you need a clasp or not. Mine was no clasp...Once again nice clear precise instructions. You are a great teacher..

Excellent tutorial, very helpful and super easy to follow. I never knew the technique with the tweezers to get the knot close to the bead....I always knotted it and finagled until I got it as close to the bead/pearl with just my fingers. What a time saver....Thanks!

Perfect video and teacher. Congrats!

Beautifully done. Thank you!

You’re so patient and clear on your instructions that even I got it. Oh, I almost forgot about my niece! She’s just a baby so I have a little while to learn how to do this properly. I believe all little girls should have a piece of jewelry that is classic and timeless. So, we’ll both have a beautiful piece of jewelry. I’m going to give her a pearl necklace, bracelet, and earrings for her sweet 16 birthday. I want hers to have the perfectly round pearls and I’ll make mine out of potato pearls. I’m probably gonna watch this video many times so I really get it!!

Great instructions! How do I cut away old knots between pearls before re-stringing. I ask because I have 3 single pearls with the old string/knot left inside the hole and I'm unable to push needle through and finish my re-string job. So: 1. How to cut away old knots before restringing and 2. How do I get the old string/knots out of pearls? Thank you

Thankyou

Perfect!! Thank you so much! I recently acquired all of my grandmother’s old pearls and most of them needed restringing. I really wanted to make two long strands without clasps in addition to fixing the multi strand necklaces which did have clasps. This was easy to understand and I’m so excited to wear them once I’m done. The Griffin silk beading cords with the needles attached have been great but can you recommend a spool of beading silk for longer necklaces? Thanks again!!

Double knot will provide a good amount of security. We like the added piece of mind we get from gluing the knot but it's a matter of personal preference.

I love the feel of the pearls as they travel across my fingers!

can you use this same technique with gemstones? TIA

I do realize this is a four year older video but I was wondering if you don't have that cement glue can you use super glue like Gorilla super glue to secure it at the ends. You can never go wrong with pearls, it will always be a classic. I made a strand for my daughter for her wedding and I used Czech pearls. So beautiful just like the bride lol. toodles debs from Texas

@beadaholique

Super glue could be a good substitute here. We recommend the GS Hypo cement for securing knots because it has such a fine applicator tip that you can hide small dots of cement in plain sight. These knots will be hidden from view so you won't have to worry as much about excess glue or about the super glue frosting over and becoming noticeable. Just make sure to test whichever glue you use on a small sample of the silk thread so you know what to expect when you're finishing your piece.

you should really use the following pearl or stone to scoot the knot down. the tweezer can mar the silk which can result in faster fraying.

The cord is griffin silk, you can see the exact kind we used here: beadaholique.com/products/griffin-silk-beading-cord-needle-size-4-white You can also buy from us if you like, we're happy to ship to India

One of the knots is nice and secure, but the other one untied, so I’m kind of stuck with what to do now. Is a good idea, but so far it hasn’t worked for me. I think if I would have glued it first and then cut ends….

Can I ask - what brand of tweezers do you use for this job, please? I’m looking at a precision set now but recommendations are always useful. Thanks.

thank you so much for this video.. i have a question. I have a total of 97 jade beads most between 7-9mm in size a few slightly bigger. I also have a total of 96 silver beads all measuring 7mm. my plan was to create this necklace using your technique here. I also have a cute owl pendant that i was going to place in it. I was thinking of putting those little crimp silver pieces on each side of the pendant to seperate it from the rest of the beads. Will the nylon string you linked in this video work for this? I've never made anything like, so i'm a complete n00b but i know my girlfriend will love this once i have it completed. :)

Just to note, the cord mentioned in this video is silk cord. Silk cord will work, but other materials, such as nylon, may be a bit stronger. You can potentially even use plastic beading threads. We have a video on how to choose beading cord or thread here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/kaaHpMFvgdzdp6Q.html Thanks for watching!

It depends on the hole size of the glass pearls. I think you will be okay but since I can't see what you have, I can't say for certain.

can you still do the project without tweezers and can you use a different kind of thread or string

@beadaholique

10 жыл бұрын

tbkk100 I find it easier to do the project with tweezers but I know it is possible to do this type of pearl knotting without them - it just takes lots and lots of practice. If you use a different type of thread or string, you will have to place a needle on it which will make it more difficult to pass through the pearls. Also, just make sure that it is strong enough to hold your pearls and hold a good knot.

Thanks, my strand is really long, it would look silly with a clasp

ty ty ty I know "overhand knot" is like pre-101 information but this has been the BEST video for clasp-less beading. She show's the mistakes; VERY good for beginners. I literally just want to do this one necklace repair and it's been hard but I finally succeeded with the help of this video! ⊂◉‿◉つ

A better way is to put all the pearls on the silk, and then knot them. Takes much less time the one at a time as shown here. ;)

Can you make a knotted pearl necklace without a clasp using the traditional Japanese method... I don't mean make a video about it, but can it be done?

These materials are not banned for sale, but their production is heavily regulated so that it does not cause harm to the species these materials come from.

Therpaeutic grade natural stone bead necklaces DO NOT traditionally use metal anywhere (no clasp) as it interferes with the natural healing frequency. There are plastic clasps available now from China, which can remedy this, if you don’t want to hand knot all the way.
