Thank you for the demo. What tools do use in this video? I'm looking for new pliers :)

Hi! Woah, I have to say thx, for making what I have to re-create so simple. So, my Q. Is this.. What's the best "gauge" wire to use to re-create the loss of my single pearl that came free from my "tummytoy, huggie" pearl dangle (belly ring.) Thx so much!

[@darcybrummett7004]

It would be time consuming but I could make a Rosary with my eye pins.

[@beckyj5875]

Is the head on head pins bigger on thicker gauge wires?

[@ArtbeadsVideos]

Yes, often times it is!

[@thungannt9281]

hi there, i wonder if your eyepin (which you are selling on your shop) would be darken when sweating?

[@ArtbeadsVideos]

I've never had much of a problem with eye pins. Most of the piece is covered by beads and the exposed parts of the eye pin doesn't have a lot of contact with skin, especially earrings.
