I can't begin to tell you how many tutorials I have seen and your video is by far the best! I love how easy and detailed you were. I love how the knot at the end when finished tucked in so nicely.I was making mine along with you but with Paper beads. You are absolutely a great teacher and your voice was simply relaxing. Excellent job! Also loved the story about your nephew. I certainly enjoyed this tremendously! Thank you!

I'm so glad, Emma that you are still using the upholstery thread I recommended to you a few years ago. I've been using it since the early 1990's because it's so strong, yet you can thread it in a regular needle. I always got mine at JoAnn Fabrics. :o) I love all of you leather bracelet tutorials.

I must have watched about 10 different DIY tutorials on leather wrap bracelets before I finally found this one. You explain things so clearly and simply, yet thoroughly. Thank you! I love the bracelet I was selected to make while watching this! Btw, you're fortunate you were able to place big orders of Tieracast findings- I heard they are shutting down. It's so heartbreaking. First Swarovski, now Tieracast, two huge names in premium jewelry supplies going away... *sigh*

Fantastic! I’ve been wondering how to incorporate beads with the leather without using wire or really big beads that will fit over the leather. This is great. Also, the beads you are using are dyed howlite, a common stone used for imitation turquoise (I’m a lapidarist who makes jewelry as well). I like this snake knot better than the barrel knot. I always have trouble getting the barrel knots to look neat and it drives my OCD nuts. Thanks for the tip on getting the last 2 knots to look the same for my OCD! 😂

Thank you. Im sorry you received negative comments. People don't like different or change. I applaud you for sharing your ways. I learned to cook & preserve from an older neighbor that was 80 plus years. We reused seals, canning with common sense. She would "say waste not want not"" hard day of work now is a relaxing day when colder" I also question organic and natural lables. My sister has an organic farm in Michigan-what is alouded under laws is not any better than my own back yard. I raised my kids by what I learned from my neighbor, godmother & and friends' families.
