    Thank you so much your instructions actually helped me carry on. I felt stupid and didn't realize that there was a whole process of actually filling everything in. Thank you again, wonderful instructions. ❤

    I am interested in the quality of the wire and whether stainless steel works a well as sterling for eyepins. Does silver plaited wire wear well or does it get spotted?

    Is there a reason why you just don't use stretch string that is 1mm in diameter instead of a double-pass with the o.5mm string?

    I just discovered the solution to awesome wooden letters I bought because I knew I could use them (inside). Where can you purchase this silicone? I'm searching the internet, both in craft and hardware, and haven't yet seen what you used. I'd prefer white or offwhite. Thanks! PS: am thinking of using old junk jewelry bits and bobs, maybe mixed with tile

    Very nice colors, textures and designs for your bracelet. I've been making Endless End bracelets in the past but with the new STEEL FINDINGS I can move into this kind of more traditional clasp finishing approach 👏 . Jewelry making has evolved so quickly over the last few years and the possibilities are truly amazing nowadays 👏.

    We think the fabric would fade in sunlight and this version of Mod Podge is not weatherproof, so we would not expose it to outside weather. Here's a link to the project on our blog: runningwithsisters.com/how-to-decoupage-a-birdhouse-with-fabric/ J&K

    Great video! One tip I'd like to add; it will dry a couple shades lighter than it is when it's wet. Make sure to mix it a little darker than you'd like the finished product to be.

    Thanks! I need to string a continuous 60” necklace with no clasp. This is perfect! I have Fireline from bead weaving classes in the past. I was worried about what cord to use. I didn’t want beading wire. I was afraid it wouldn’t be flexible enough.
