I'm getting discouraged by Expertvillage's videos.. some are good, most short. Youtube allows for 10 minutes of video. In ten minutes, you can get through a tutorial. We viewers, can simply pause the video.. to do the work, then restart when ready. None of the videos are numbered so I never know which one to click on.. or where to go next. Often the one I click is in the middle somehwhere & keep scrambling. I don't quite understand unless they want u to go to their website to sell.

I'm putting you guys on my boycott list if you don't do better. Please number the videos!!!!!!!!!!

[didadidunk]

the videos are useless! you have 9 minutes free to show how to make it but you didn't do that! expertvillage sucks

[Carylanne927]

oh come on I have looked through several vidios and these are terrible, why bother if you are NOT going to actually show a finishing project

@salishbeauty

I totally agree with you! I like but hate expertvillages videos...and leave unhappy and not wanting to return...

[mesutt159]

I give up..and not wasting any more of my time!!!! I can't find the continuation on this video... Expertvillage I find your videos are very unorganized and not user friendly...

yeah I too attempted to do something like this in grade school but on a much cruder lever (3 sides glued together , yarn handle blablabla)

But this is adorable, well made and professiona (boutique looking) and not school or camp craft-ish

despite all the insults ...still I'd wear this in a club, a lippie, some money, id & keys are all i would need to carry....dance the night a way w/out a purse! :-)
