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?
Do you put all of the beads on the same side of the chain?
❤❤thanks you have a new 🐝 to the channel … Sweet and simple to the point
Do you have advice or a video of how to convert the same screw back earrings into hanging ones? I don’t want to make them into studs. Thank you!
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?
Helpful concept. Suggest using black ink on small diagram for visual ease.
I make these with gemstone chips.
Can I use tape the wick down to cover the hole?
Loves it! Thanks
Run a needle and thread through the ends of all the ribbons, then insert and pull through. Much easier.
How does it hold up vs double strand regular crimping?
So happy I found you.
What do you burn the candles on top of?
Wonderful instructions. Thank you.
You are so welcome! Cheers, Jennifer & Kitty
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
Lovely and very classy.
Thanks so much! Jennifer & Kitty

Grateful to find this because I discovered these bails first.😊
Excuse me, but what is the name of the sealer that you use?
Thank you so much. It's much more impressive than other videos.
Thanks so much! Jennifer & Kitty
Ladies, I can't thank you enough. Best tutorial for beading a bracelet. Success!!!! Thank you again❤

Beading wier exspanation ❤
Glad you liked it! Jennifer & Kitty
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 👏.
Great, very pretty. What thanks. 😊
Thanks so much! Jennifer & Kitty
Liked your illusion necklace
Thank you so much! Jennifer & Kitty
IHI..im looking for the black wire , anti rust for making jewellery.. What are u suggest ya
Do you need to keep track of which wires you put the med bead and the large beads on? Or alternate? Thanks!
No, you can just bead on either wire. Jennifer & Kitty
Very well explained - thank you. I look forward to trying this.
Thank you so much! Jennifer & Kitty
Brilliant. Excellent easy to follow instructions.
Thank you so much! Jennifer & Kitty
Will this withstand the elements
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
Thank you. You can also use blue tac to seal the hole
Yes! Great tip and thank you for sharing! Jennifer & Kitty
It got better.
Oh good! J&K
Gave up watching. Your video was not on the actions
We definitely craft in real time and take it slow. Jennifer & Kitty
Just started making tallow candles. First batch didn't go so well because I had no clue that pre-waxed wicks were a thing.
Hope it goes better next time! J&K
Her: "This is not where you chainsaw through the whole book at once" Me: "Hold my beer..."
LOL!
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.
Great tip and thank you so much for sharing it! Jennifer & Kitty
Dear ladies , thank you so much for this tutorial. After I saw your video, I bought the stones and all the instruments need it , and today I made for the first time a necklace. I love it!!! I will definitely make some for my friends for Christmas. Thank you so much!!! You are amazing teachers!! You made it so easy, even for someone like me, trying for first time.🙂 😘
What kind of glue are you using? Safe for kids?
Brilliant and thanks
Thank you so much! Jennifer & Kitty
Awesome!❤️❤️
Thank you so much! Jennifer & Kitty
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.
Beautiful!
Thank you so much! Jennifer & Kitty
