How To Make Kandi: Checkerboard Ladder Headband

[Nikey161]

So the string is strechy then? I need to get some more...

[Doreflyinc]

how long are the cut strings?

[DionDemonic]

@Doreflyinc That depends how many inches it is around your head, if your head size like around 18-19inches You might need to add about two or three inches for tying.

[KateKrush1890]

R u a raver?

[PowerOfVengeance]

<3 it! Definitely using this way of beading kandi for bracelets. xoxoxo

[nomnomnomrawrer]

I had to laugh when you said "Otto fit over your head and won't choke to death"... I HAD too XP

[momosocraftie]

I just made this its freakin awsome im def. Gonna wear it to school monday

[Rosalita0528]

I freaked out when I heard the song in the background. I kinda yelled at my sister "OH MY GA~ DO U REMEMBER THIS SONG?!?!!?" Lol. Love ur Kandi tho. Keep making them!! (:

[KandiKidKota]

youve been an inspiration to my kandi. thanks for posting these vids. wish i can send you some kandi as an expression of my gratitude (and your such a cutie :-3)

X-D plur

[sweety3611]

i got 100ft of string for $2 it was soooo epic

[SOSOTHECAT]

put more videos please

[SOSOTHECAT]

u are making it looking so easy

thanxs so much

[aly411998taco]

@About99Balloons a better way is to take ur longest string and string through a couple rows of the checkerboard and come out through the side the short(er) string us and tie! It holds magnificently!

[ProductionsGomez]

Thanks! Me and my cousin are selling bracelets, and I wanted to do a different kinda pattern, and this is exactly what I was expecting! Already subscribed! Wish I could subscribe again, youre awesome. :)

This is also a cool way to make a bracelet! I made one and now I'm giving it away!

[About99Balloons]

I'm good up until I have to tie everything off.. When I went to tie the two ends, everything fell apart.

[xfr33urmindx]

@About99Balloons oh lord



[About99Balloons]

@xfr33urmindx

XD Yeah, I don't know how I managed that.

[squeakyy1993]

[prietanegrita1624]

do you really need the clothes pin to make it?

[MonsterTwiggy]

@MIXMAMA23FORLIFEBABY No.. Like 3 lines instead of 2.. How would you cross it through.

[cryingwolf1986]

It's sooo beautiful and the song is great! (I love ATC) ^_^

Greetings from Milano, Italy

[musicluver894]

could you do this useing just one string instead of two?

[KDkatt0227]

@musicluver894 i make these with one string :] so yes. its pretty much the same thing just pretend the strings in the video are one string

[nomnom519]

@musicluver894 Idk if any one responded to this. but yeah, you can, it might be a little easier cuz then you dont need the clothes pins.

[hlwtsb]

@musicluver894 yes

[MsSparkkz]

@musicluver894 yes with your 1 piece of string put your beads on keep them in the middle then put both stings through the beads from the ends and then pull but not too tight

[toomy1995]

[daddyzlittlegurl1]

ohh i know da song can you tell me

[24tubz]

not to be creepy but you are really cute.. good job on the beads

[schmidtlestick]

SO true. kandi is meant to be traded. dont ever say that it should be sold. thats not the point.

[SailorBarsoom]

I've never made kandi, but this one I think even I could handle. I just have to make sure not to get it too tight or too loose. Thanks you, I'm going to give it a try. Maybe I'll have kandi to trade at A-KON.

[WAAAAVY]

we need a michaels in texas

[purpletigerlover]

hey girl know you could make a bead sale and get your money back. I did and I got like 80 dollars from it.yeah I spent like 20-25 bucks from it, it was so cool!!!!!!!!!

[TrashYourself209]

person under me.,..SO TRUE. theyre for trading, or for a friendly present. not to sell :/

[DrellaHollywood]

hmm. how long does it normally take to make kandi? I need some. :(

I need my first((:

[CheeseQueen96]

this looks like the easiest thing to make, next to the basic kani neckace, bracelets, ect. im gonna use ur vids to make my Kandi things when i get my supplies! :)

[lindsEyTHIZZIEE]

<333

[donutl0vr]

hey I got the same spool of elastic cord today lol

[AbcAntonia]

nice penguin

[Booklvr777]

my beads are way too bunched up. help me!!!!! :(

[CheeseQueen96]

im guessing dont pull them as tight. u posted this 2 months aog so im assuming ur done with it for sumtin but if u wanna try again. just dont pull as hard. :)

[darkbug1234]

i bought a set of a bracelet and a ring like that on donnaliza and it was fabulous! Just search donnaliza on google and youll find it.

[Kanitahh]

hello I really like this model but I think it looks better on bracelet ...

very beautiful

Continued

[smileatthecows]

stretchy string?

[jazminedwards]

about how much longer do you need more than what u measured around ur head? thanx anyway! these thing are so much easier then they look haah. ily xoox

[knf1996]

<33333 :D

i love my kandi headband.

i'm going to cherish it my whole life :)

thank you!

[justwiddles]

i most deff have that penguin!

[Mx2rawr]

i loveee your penguin!

[tranceah0lic]

you're awesome, i wish you still made videos

[robandnicole]

I'm going to miss =( you on youtube

AlouetteFTW♥

[TBagNubs]

Very nice! Ive watched a couple of your other videos... Your always hooking JD up with the sickest kandi, like your ribbon cuff that you made, making the rest of us jealous hah

[FlIpPy778]

i like the stuff you make with kandi its awsome if you where here right now would trade you though

[novikain]

damn this was easy to follow

nice vid

hot chick

sry, still glowing

plur to all the party kids out therrrrre

[15justean]

Yay! thanks! I have all of these beads i don't know what to do with! lol!

[FlIpPy778]

can i buy them from you

[puddintang1999]

you should sell the kandi you make.

[AlouetteFTW]

personally i really hate it when ppl sell kandi. i think it totally ruins the meaning of kandi. its meant to be traded or to be a present to show how someone is awesome. buying kandi cheapens the scene.

[kingvincedrums]

nuff said. thumbz up :P keeeeeep on ravin' babyy ^_^

[TBagNubs]

Yah making the kandi is half the fun... I agree that kandi would be pointless if you could just buy a bunch of it already done.

[ian66600]

moron

[breezy508]

amen.

[wznpersuasion]

do you even understand what im talking about o-o?

im talking about people who buy/sell kandi.

[breezy508]

i dont remember and the comment was removed? so ill just say that i hate when people buy & sell kandi.

[kupkayk13]

@AlouetteFTW i sell kandi. its cuz i need to get more beads to make more kandi for raves to give out

[Amandaxlemon]

@AlouetteFTW wanna send me some as a gift :p

[LambVideos]

@AlouetteFTW omg, your so amazing :)

[danijean168]

That's awesome! I think I'm going to try to make a bracelet like this!

[steventamle]

where to get the guardian penguin to watch over your crafts :D?

great tut.

[Phishie8]

Marry me.

[rockoutloudinpurple]

actualy you dont need the close pins

u can jsut put the first set of beads in the middle of a string thennnnn do the stringing and beading its alot easier

[reppingAiEa]

this is the greatest! im gonna start working on it tommorow

[dillondramatic]

i like the vids you should make a bag like a little purse its just a over size headband thats really think and u just close off the bottom and make a strap it would be cute

[AlouetteFTW]

the bag might be a little or a lot heavy... the idea is awesome, but i made a corset top already and i know the bag would use way more beads and i used about 2-3 lbs of beads for the corset. so the bag would be about 5-6 lbs.. if i ever get enough money to buy that many beads i could try...

[dillondramatic]

well it dosent have to be a huge one my friend made one its only like 6 in wide and like 5 in high or so like no even a whole bag should do it ill try making one tonight and send u a pic or something lol they look good

[sh0rtaznant]

im 10 seconds into the video and the first thing i noticed is the kandi on your right hand. HOW DID YOU MAKE THAT?! lol x]

[xXPoserFaceXx]

It's on one of her videos I believe.

[AlouetteFTW]

yeah i made a tutorial on it right after i made this one lol

[ImaKittyGoRawrs]

@sh0rtaznant its called a cuff,its super easy to make i made like 3 or 4 that go all the way up my arm.. :)

[melaniesweetcakes]

i love your tutorials :)

hopefully i'll see you @ an event someday

[christinaruiz90]
