Great video, but background noise is so distracting!!!!

Why do you have a tv noise in the background -- don't you ever watch your own videos? It's so distracting to us adhd artists, it destroys our attention. It's very unprofessional of you. You really should do better.

Interesting, but what kind of wire is used for this?

[Ilovelotro]

I have made headpins doing this. I took a piece of wire and flattened one end to the width that a small bead couldn't fall off and then strung beads and wrapped the other end like normal. It makes for a very cool look.
