  • Ur video was very clear but I would like to know how to attach a clasp or earring wire...

  • @MyH2oh When you have finished the woven piece, tie off and weave in your threads, which you can see how to do in this video: How to Tie Off and Add New Thread in Bead Weaving. Then thread your beading needle with a new length of fireline. Go through a few beads near the top of your piece, coming out at the center of the top edge, and leave a tail at the end of your thread.

  • @Beadaholique Bring your needle through the loop of the clasp or earring wire and then back through the next few beads along the top of your woven piece. Weaving your thread through the beads, bring it back around through the clasp again to reinforce it. Then tie off and weave in your thread, and the thread tail you began with.

  • how do you end the circular brick stitch? by just simply tying a knot?

  • @gladys1620 You will end a circular brick stitch the same way you end any other bead weaving project - yes, essentially tying a knot, working your end into your bead work, tying another knot, working the thread back in, etc. We have a video titled "How to Tie Off and Add New Thread in Bead Weaving" that you can check out and use as a reference.

  • What thread are you using? It looks very strong and also easy to work with.

  • @wickyv35 It's called Wildfire Thermal Bonded Beading Thread .008 Inch - Black- 50 Yds.

    SKU# XCR-8936. WildFire beading thread is extra strong and durable. It's available on Beadaholique's website. You can find a list and links for supplies in this video in the video description underneath the video.

  • Julie your such a good teacher, I love your videos !!!

  • Nice video! I'm excited to make my very own design! :)

  • Thank you so much. Your vedios are extremely helpful. Please keep up the good work.

  • You did this video in a very informative manner, so that even beginners could understand it well. However, as a long time beader, I just have one wish - that I could make my stitches go as quickly as you did in completeing rows two and three! LOL
