Hey, really liked the video🙌! I was Wondering if you'd ever be interested in expanding your reach? I could whip up some super catchy short clips from your content, perfect for grabbing attention. They'd be subtle additions but make a big difference. Let me know if that's cool, or if you just wanna chat video content!

For me I started with 22 gauge and now I can do 18 gauge but it took me a while just to make a decent ring ❤ 1 year later 😊
@alexamarthadesigns6 ай бұрын
Thank you for your comment, I find that 22 gauge wire is extremely pliable and bendable especially copper. 18 gauge is a minimum copper for me and in sterling silver. Most of mine are 16 gauge.

I only slowed part of the video down so you don't have to watch the whole 30 min. I just wanted to give you insight to what I do and how I do it. There is a lot of physical strength involved, that's why I am standing up. When I found the background music on google I could not get enough of it, still can't. I think it really fits to what I do. My work is very dynamic...I mostly stand up, because I involve my whole body with passion. As you can see i use very few tools or measurements in my work. My work is far from precise, but purposeful. I hope you take the time to watch this video to the end where I show you the finished product purposefully created with passion.

@@karenlandi73 I definitely needed to get my strength up to work with gauge 16 and above , also depending on your age. Everything is less flexible as we get older, lol take it from me I am almost 60. if your young however, unless you have some other impairment of course, I'd give it it a go. I also know, don't give up, keep trying at it. I think I did about 10 practice rings for myself , before I was comfortable to go in front of the camera.

Do you have to use 15 ?
@alexamarthadesigns4 жыл бұрын
Hi there Robert, yes, for this model you start with sz 11/O and then finish with sz 15/O. I use sz 12 needle that allows you to go through the beads at least 3 and if you careful 4 times. If you are a beginner, this might not be the easiest project to start with. Either way, have fun whether you do it for fun or as a profession. Hope I answered your question :)

Lol thanks for your advice. I have utilized all your tricks for years but no matter what I still destroy my needles. Threading is a skill that takes practice and one I have mastered but I still favor fire line over waxed threads. I like the synthetic wax Thread Heaven. Have you tried any of the newer braided waxed line like Spiderline? Zebco even put out a braided line. They have excellent strength but do have their cons. Also, less costly.
@alexamarthadesigns12 жыл бұрын
I hate that when beads break especially in the endstate. of a time consuming projectI found out that when you have your thread waxed good and you take a flat nose pliers and gently with a tiny bit of pressure pull the thread end through the pliers to flatten it. Then you can even get the thread through a size 13 needle which lets you go through the tiny sz 15 and even charlottes. Hope that helps! I really admire you on the amount of patience you have I have three teens and next to none......:)
@AvieMare12 жыл бұрын
I use 10 lb fire line. Makes threading tiny needles even harder. Frustration is not my problem; the beads breaking and the needle eye flattening is. I have far too much patience for any one person lol but that does not stop the beads from braking and eyes flattening after multiple passes.

I use to has the same issue.........they are really thin and they are easely to break.....they are not cheap either. my advise and what helps me is keep in mind you have to go though these tiny beads at least twice if not three times....so I use max 10 lb strength thread. Just go easy with it and most of all have fun. if you get frustrated put it down for a while and come back to it later.

I had this problem in the beginning as well. I noticed that especially when I used long needled. They bend easy, but you can bend them back straight with two flatnose pliers. I have a little trick that helps me to get the fireline thread through the eye of the needle withought to destroy the needle. You first wax your whole threat then you take your flat nose pliers and pinch first 1/2 in and pull it through the pliers. Once you have to figure it out how much pressure you need it will go easy.
