Thank you very much for making these videos available to the public and free of charge. It's a beautiful skill and art to know. You are truly a blessing to many!
I’m glad I found your channel. My mother sent me a bead loom for my birthday. I love beading but only did foundation beading. So I am following along with you. Thank you! You’re a good teacher!
I have seen this done a couple of times, but have never tried it myself. It would take some experimentation to figure out. I will add it to our request list.
wow..only watch to 7:30 and l am totally impressed. I just started looming like yesterday and didn't know how to make a longer piece. thank you. your instructions are amazing.
I'm doing some research and experimenting a bit with different ways to finish loom projects. Once I've found a few good options, I'll be sure to make a video on finishing loom work.
After leaving the art form for a few years I am making my way back. This was a great help except my small loom did not come with those extras you showed in this video. It is a very good refresher course tho thank you
Thanks for watching Jennifer, glad it made a good refresher course! Since it sounds like the loom you got skimped on extras let me recommend the looming needles we get the most use out of here, they're a great length: beadaholique.com/products/beadalon-jewel-loom-needles-3-125-8cm-long-6-pieces
Thank you so much for this demonstration! I want to create a project I saw on a beading supplies catalog, which wraps around the length of a stethoscope. I am guessing to do a wrap around I will have to sew the edges together, and build the flat strip by intercalating the beads on the edges, leaving opposing blank spaces. I love this stuff!! thanks again.
It is possible to weave the warp threads into the beads when you use a larger seed bead, so theoretically, if you got the pony beads to work, you could weave the ends in, as long as the beads could accommodate all the cord strands.
Bead loom projects usually need a backing. There are too many threads on the ends to neatly weave them into the bead work. However, you could try to experiment and see if you can find a different way to finish it off. In my experience, these pieces look best with a backing.
For a piece that long, you'll need to roll your warp threads onto one side of the loom as I showed in the beginning of the video. The biggest challenge will be keeping them tangle free while you get them into place. We do not currently have a video showing how to add fringe to loomwork. The closest video we currently have is the How to Make Brick Stitch and Fringe Beaded Earrings. You could give that a watch, the general idea for the fringe portion would be similar.
This loom is generally intended for seed beads. I've never tried it with anything larger than an 8/0 seed bead, and as we don't carry pony beads, I can't try it to see if it would work. My thought is that the threads would be much too small to hold the larger beads in place properly. Thicker cord wouldn't fit into the ridges in the loom.
I don't have the loom that you have to look at, so I'm not sure about the holes in the dowels. It's okay if your beads are slightly larger than your warp threads, but if they're a lot larger then yes, you can try stringing every other space.
This can be tricky, and won't always work for every situation, but I did a project this way, B1044 the Hope Bracelet. You can check out the instructions on our Free Beading Projects page under bracelets to see one way of how to do it. There's a link for it in the video description underneath this video.
We sell the metal BeadSmith loom and we now sell the Ricks Beading Loom. You can get them on Beadaholique . com's website. The links for the supplies in this video are located in the video description underneath this video.
im not sure how to start and finish a bracelet if the first set of beads is only 3, the next 5 and the rest 7. where do i tie the thread in the begining, etc.
Life save I've been looking how to set strings for a longer project before I buy a loom. Ive been using whatever I have in the house to loom and had to join the pieces together after.
To quick load the wooden loom couldn't you just wrap the threads around that wood bar and then adjust them like you did on the smaller loom? Thank you for all your tutorials they are very helpful to me.
I'm not sure what you mean by nail, can you tell me a little more? Here's a video on our favorite finishing technique, which does involve cutting the strings but lets you end in a nice sleek clasp: th-cam.com/video/u3a4SymwVGw/w-d-xo.html
We recommend reading our bead looming for beginners guide on our website. Here is a direct link: beadaholique.com/blogs/techniques-guides/bead-looming-101-beading-and-jewelry-making-on-a-bead-loom Thanks for watching!
So I got a pattern but the stuff but the bead Smith had 28 slots my pattern calls for 29 so do I take out 2 out from pattern I wish there was more info or maybe it is me so now it seams I will need to get a different loom any help would be appreciated
It's a little difficult to say exactly. From end to end each warp thread is going to be around 11 inches, so for 3 warp threads that'll be around 33 inches. How much thread you'll need for the weft threads will vary depending on how many inches you bead. When we sell loom bracelet kits we usually include a 64 yard bobbin of nymo thread like this, and it's enough to make several bracelets in a wide variety of styles beadaholique.com/products/nymo-nylon-beading-thread-size-d-for-delica-beads-white-64yd-58-meters
You mentioned that you mount your work onto something else in the end, so what do you mount it on? A piece of ribbon? Sorry I know absolutely nothing about bead looming, but your video helped me greatly!
+jendwy81 We've got another video on backing and finishing loom pieces that you might like: th-cam.com/video/Xn-8T7pM0cY/w-d-xo.html You can use lots of different materials for backing, we particularly like ultra suede
I have the wood beam loom. The space between each coil of the wire seems too small to put my seed beads. Should I thread every other coil? I also have little holes in the dowls, Should I tied threads though the holes?
Here are some more videos from us showing our favorite finishing techniques for this style of loom work. The first video will show you how to add more thread to make a longer piece and how to weave in those weft threads, which is the first step in finishing any loom piece. The other videos will show you two ways of finishing the ends of your piece: th-cam.com/video/YAyl_S53Twg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/u3a4SymwVGw/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/LT6UjeogiBY/w-d-xo.html
Is it best to use Nymo thread or can you also use say 3lb fireline? I have to be honest not keen on Nymo thread it has a tendency to stretch over time.. I'm thinking of adding a bead loom to my jewellery making, so any feed back on this would be really grateful received, thank you Linda
For a theme wedding I need to make a "bead scarf", 5 beads wide and about 4 feet long. Do you have any suggestions for making something that long? Oh, I also need to have "scarf fringe" on the ends. Do you have a video showing that?
Thank you for the tutorial, are there other ways to finish off the ends of the threads i.e. if you do not wish to tuck them under the work ...say maybe you do not want a backing on the project?
You can get the supplies featured in our videos on Beadaholique . com's website. The links for the supplies in this video are located in the video description underneath this video.
Two questions: 1- I want to do a project with pony beads. Would the loom be suitable or is it only suitable for seed beads? 2- In your video you said it would need to be mounted onto something. Is this necessary in all situations? I would like to do some keyring projects but i don't have a ricks beading loom.... only the metal small one like you demonstrate with. Thanks!
You can use many different types of thread and you should use a material you feel comfortable with. We went with nylon thread for many of our looming kits due to it's flexibility. Thanks for watching!

Our favorites are E6000 and GS Hypo Cement, but there are also other great choices. For example, Eurotool Super New Glue. Here is a direct link to our available adhesives: beadaholique.com/collections/adhesives?_=pf&pf_st_availability=true
Take a look at the Ricks Loom, it's a slightly different style but it has good sturdy wood construction with only a few metal parts: beadaholique.com/products/beadsmith-ricks-beading-loom-kit-for-beginners-weave-necklaces-bracelets-and-more
I made a loom bracelet, but I don't know how to put on a lobster clasp on the ends and have it look nice. Any suggestions? Videos on that would be super helpful!
Gama Cappucino You can sew on a closed jump ring and then add an open jump ring with your lobster clasp. If you are looking for a video about backing your loom work you can watch, "How to Finish and Back Loom Weaving". I hope this points you in the right direction.

Hi, great tutorial. Don't know if you are still replying to comments on this one. But, I'd like to clarify, you said for a larger project to add 2 feet to it. So, if my project is 1 foot long, should I make each strand 3 feet? Why that much?
Thanks for watching. To clarify, we say that you should add 2 feet in addition to the length of the loom.This is simply so you don't run out of cord while working on a project that is longer than the loom itself. Thanks for watching.
I want to order the seed beads online I was wondering what size beads came with the smaller loom, I have already purchased beads that are way too small...lol. If you can answer this I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

max17937 The reason you should back it is because you have all of your warp threads that will be sticking out of each end. The ends will be very bulky if you try to weave in all of the threads. So we recommend you back it. If you don't want a backing I recommend Rick's Beading Loom and we have a full video telling you all about this type of loom and why it is different. For this loom, use 11/0 Miyuki delicas and then you can use the slide end clasp to finish you bracelet. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Use-The-Ricks-Beading-Loom.aspx?TH-cam& www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Use-Slide-End-Tubes-For-Miyuki-Delica-Bead-Weaving.aspx?TH-cam&
Benjamin Taverner With this particular loom, you will need to back the piece. If you are looking for a faster method of ending your work, I recommend the Rick's Beading Loom. We have a video to show you how to use this loom. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Use-The-Ricks-Beading-Loom.aspx Another video that might be helpful is How to Finish and Back Bead Loom Weaving. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Finish-And-Back-Bead-Loom-Weaving.aspx
Great suggestion! If it's a straight demo, we try to make sure to use contrasting thread. If we are working on a finished jewelry design, that is when we usually choose the thread that we would want in the actual design but we can try to make sure to use a contrasting beading mat or something that will help show the thread better.
+max17937 Yes! What you want are Miyuki Delicas. They're precisely machined seed beads that weave flush up against each other. Take a look at them in the 11/0 size, that's our most popular size and it's a great place to start with bead weaving on a loom www.beadaholique.com/c-60541-delica-beads-size-11-0.aspx
That seems a bit thick. I really like using Nymo thread for loom work. Here is a link: www.beadaholique.com/c-60433-nymo-beading-thread.aspx Size D is a good choice.
Broncos Fan For a bead loom, you can use whatever type of thread you want. Our designers tend to use Nymo because of it's strength combined with flexibility. For beadweaving, we like to use Wildfire or Fireline. I hope this helps! www.beadaholique.com/c-60385-beading-thread-and-cord.aspx?TH-cam&
So, to follow a pattern you work one strip or row at a time, but do you work from bottom right corner of the pattern, like I do when I'm knitting a fair isle pattern? Also, if one bead falls out, instead of undoing the whole row, can I just re-thread through the beads a second time? John 3:16-21; Romans 10: 9-13
It depends on where you feel the most comfortable starting. You can start at either end, but you can also start in the middle of the pattern if you are unsure if you want to make your project longer or shorter. Our designer Kat goes into more detail about this subject in the following video: th-cam.com/video/g42imsTu624/w-d-xo.html We also have a video on how to repair a dropped bead, available here: th-cam.com/video/TEZU1rBzMdU/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching!
after cutting the threads at the end of the project, and gluing them on the back of the work, how do you prevent that from looking bulky or lumpy? Can you just put glue on the thread ends, let it dry, then cut threads? Put a clasp on?
Hope you liked the video! We've done a lot more loom videos since we made this one, you might find these helpful: th-cam.com/play/PLdGWVJ-tb1bFe9VgdksRZ7H3MzQiffh5g.html

For this loom, use 11/0 Miyuki delicas and then you can use the slide end clasp to finish you bracelet. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Use-The-Ricks-Beading-Loom.aspx?TH-cam&

Beadaholique i Cant figure out how to end my projects. I dont know what to but or how to do it.
max17937 Here is a video for how to finish off and back your loom work. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Finish-And-Back-Bead-Loom-Weaving.aspx
This helped soooooo much! Thankyou!😄
For the metal loom how do you tie it off when ur doing the faster version of the weave
Benjamin Taverner With this particular loom, you will need to back the piece. If you are looking for a faster method of ending your work, I recommend the Rick's Beading Loom. We have a video to show you how to use this loom. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Use-The-Ricks-Beading-Loom.aspx Another video that might be helpful is How to Finish and Back Bead Loom Weaving. www.beadaholique.com/t-video-How-To-Finish-And-Back-Bead-Loom-Weaving.aspx
Thx!!!
Could you use black thread next time. It's hard to see white thread. Thank you
Great suggestion! If it's a straight demo, we try to make sure to use contrasting thread. If we are working on a finished jewelry design, that is when we usually choose the thread that we would want in the actual design but we can try to make sure to use a contrasting beading mat or something that will help show the thread better.
All the beads I have bought are not symmetrical. Are there beads that are symmetrical in size and shape?
+max17937 Yes! What you want are Miyuki Delicas. They're precisely machined seed beads that weave flush up against each other. Take a look at them in the 11/0 size, that's our most popular size and it's a great place to start with bead weaving on a loom www.beadaholique.com/c-60541-delica-beads-size-11-0.aspx
are any of these looms available in stores? which ones?
Thank you for this tutorial!! it really helped me get started :)
Please the end?
Very helpful video! Thank you very much for sharing!!!
how do I know what thread to buy? I have some Supplemax 0.25mm and it seems hard to work with. Is that a good size for 10 or 11 size seed beads?
That seems a bit thick. I really like using Nymo thread for loom work. Here is a link: www.beadaholique.com/c-60433-nymo-beading-thread.aspx Size D is a good choice.
thanks so much! I am learning so much from your videos.
how does this make sence?
What kind of thread do you use for beading??
Broncos Fan For a bead loom, you can use whatever type of thread you want. Our designers tend to use Nymo because of it's strength combined with flexibility. For beadweaving, we like to use Wildfire or Fireline. I hope this helps!

Thanks so much!
Hi, where can i find the wooden loom in the video? Can't seem to find it on your web site. Can you order one and sell it to me? Thank you much.
I'm going through the same thing. Can't find it anywhere on their site. Why show it if it's not on the site? UGH!
Regrettably, we no longer sell the Beazu Wooden Loom. Thanks for your interest.
May I suggest putting that in the description bar so future viewers know it's no longer available? Thank you for your response.
thank you, thank you, thank you.
So, to follow a pattern you work one strip or row at a time, but do you work from bottom right corner of the pattern, like I do when I'm knitting a fair isle pattern? Also, if one bead falls out, instead of undoing the whole row, can I just re-thread through the beads a second time? John 3:16-21; Romans 10: 9-13
It depends on where you feel the most comfortable starting. You can start at either end, but you can also start in the middle of the pattern if you are unsure if you want to make your project longer or shorter. Our designer Kat goes into more detail about this subject in the following video:
th-cam.com/video/g42imsTu624/w-d-xo.html
We also have a video on how to repair a dropped bead, available here:

Thanks for watching!
thank you!
Ha I thought the base would be difficult
thanks!
como conigo el telar
after cutting the threads at the end of the project, and gluing them on the back of the work, how do you prevent that from looking bulky or lumpy?
Can you just put glue on the thread ends, let it dry, then cut threads? Put a clasp on?
vse je suuuuper
Thank you
Cool
I just started
Hope you liked the video! We've done a lot more loom videos since we made this one, you might find these helpful: th-cam.com/play/PLdGWVJ-tb1bFe9VgdksRZ7H3MzQiffh5g.html
