Ty so much for this video! I have been wanting to make my daughter some pieces for wacipi!! You are so clear and I love listening to you. So patient! I appreciate you!!!

Ty for this sometime our aunties pass before we were shown. We have to be the aunties n learn somehow. I always loved these earrings. 💕🌺🌹

Ty for sharing, for the separators I use the long leather thin straps. I cut close to 3 holes. Round out edges with scissors and sandpaper. Makez it easy on fingers pushing though for me! Happy beading!

ty for this video so much i am trying to make my daughters first regalia set and i always wanted to make her this style :)

My first attempt at making dentalium earrings just guessing was only half successful. Thank you for sharing!

Fantastic video thank you for making it! :)

Camera off center can't see in some parts. Great info. Though. I love it.

Nya weh thank you soooo very much! I made a pair for my daughter!

Beautiful ❤❤❤❤

Dentalium sea shell in the half price available in the online websites within inch of 1.5to 2 Minimum order 1kg

When you thread the shells, you started in the middle then weaved between top to bottom ending in a side. But you skipped that part, When in the middle did you go left them at side go over the middle so you can see the other side of the middle strand?

That’s my question too. 😅 I think she works from the middle out to the edge, then weaves back through all of them back to the middle where she started, and works her way outward again.

That was the part I was waiting to see.

Are the shells delicate in the earring? Is there anything you can put on them to make stronger. How about coloring them?

Where do u get the shells from???

Why do you use sinew vs another thread like nymo? Is it bc the dentalium will cut normal beading thread?

Okay, where you tied it off, BEFORE you hit that step… did you go all the way thru the shells again to get to the bottom? How did you do that part?? Lol did you have to loosen everything up to work the needle thru the hide?

For example for 3 rows dentalum earrings how much would you charge?

What kind of leather/hide do you use? Or is there a good substitute you know of?

Where is cheapest to get dentilliums

What type of hide do you use for spacing??

How do I attach the dentalium without a lever back?

Do you also tie it by the needle if it's one strand

How much do you charge for a pair of earrings like that? Can you also show how you file the shells much appreciated 🦋

What size needle did you use .. my needles can’t go through my deer skin 😭

She mentioned she was using a size 10 bedding needle. I use the same size and hate how my needle breaks all the time. You can also pre pierce your hide with an awl so that no matter what size needle you use the hole will be big enough to easily pass through. Hope that helps.

Can you link the needle you are using please

What kind of leather do you use ..I tried this I love how they came . Someone told me to use thicker leather.

Where can I purchase your earrings?!

You should stay on camera when you thread the dentalium. I couldn't see anything to use as an example of how to for myself.
