I've watched your videos for badge reels when you spoke about how wonderful beading needles are. I purchased some but I can't figure out how to use them without breaking them!!!
Are you using the same wire? Or are you using thread? What size are the beads? I break mine when I try to use too thick a wire or when I force it through a hole that’s too small.
Try hairspraying those threads straight. Dry them real good with a hairdryer or heat gun. They’ll make them stiff and easy to thread. I’ll take care of the frays on the thread.
These are great for maybe people who work in retail but for people in schools or Healthcare they are not break-away. This will pose a strangulation hazard if someone grabs the cord. With the cord holding 100lbs it wouldn't even break.
I like to watch your videos but I can't finish watching it because of that very monotonous background music that you play all the time.. Please change the music or do not play it at all so I can finish watching your videos. Thank you.
Good morning absolutely love this such a great idea amazing keep videos like this coming love it
Thank you so much! I will definitely be making more.
Where did you find the black badge reel that you can connect the cord to the top?
Awesome thank you 😊
Thank you!
Or melt and twist the end to make a point
You could always use a sewing needle 🪡 when in a pinch. Love the videos.
Thank you!
What kind of badge reel is this? Does it have anything on the back? You have several listed in the description.
I use the belt, gator, MRI safe, and lanyard reels. The most common style is the alligator (gator) clip.

Hi Pamela. What kind did you get? If the beading needle is too small for the hole or the thread is too thick, they do tend to break.
@@stainedsplinters I bought the ones you listed on your post.

Thank you for the tips! I’ll try it.

The clasp is break away. Yes, I was thinking of trachers and retail.
Great information! Better lighting would help
Working on it!
You can always make beading needles with jewelery wire. They last far longer and cheaper
thank you! I will try that next time.

I will find new music! Thank you.
You talk too much! Get to the point!
I'm sorry you feel that way. It's just how I talk. You can always fast forward. Thank you for watching.
