I really appreciate how gentle and detailed this is. Even when explaining how you tie them on your wrist. That seems self-explanatory, but is not always and having someone calmly explain how without making the asker feel stupid is so refreshing and safe. Thank you!
This was such a sweet comment to read, thank you!! :)
THE TIME THIS MUST HAVE TAKEN OMG
your dedication is unreal :D
thank you! it took about an hour or so to plan, about another hour to cut all the string (i take a while with that!!) filming probably took around 4 hrs in total, and editing took about 20 hours... export and upload took two days but that's cause my wifi was cutting in and out oop... call it 26 hours or so 😂
Wow, that's crazy! We appriciate it!!!
alex i hope u know that for people getting into bracelet making, ur channel is like the sacred texts- everyone recommends u and ur videos never disappoint!! thanks so much :DDD
ahaha that’s so sweet!! tysm i’m so glad they’re helpful!!
I absolutely love all of you content, and your bracelets! You seem like such a nice person and like you are an amazing friend! I hope you have an amazing day!❤️
Thank you so much!! You too :)
This is a great video! I have always wanted more to starts and beginnings but no one goes in-depth but this is perfect
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very much, I am 63yrs young and wanted to start a hobby. I started watching alot of videos and I enjoy you the best. So thank you for doing what you do I appreciate you.
Best of luck! You got this!
Fantastic video as always! I can’t get over how perfect your eyeliner was!!
aw thank you!! I have Cars washi tape that I use to make the lines straight so I can go KaChOw while doing my makeup 😂
Alex: uploads video
Me in the middle of class: I’m going to watch it anyway
omg don't get in trouble 🥺 but thank you :)
The dedicationnnn Alex!!!! I appreciate this so much! I’m quite advanced with bracelets but I absolutely love watching and refreshing my knowledge in case I developed a bad habit of doing something wrong! I’m watching it right now and I’ve actually noticed the way i do the colour changing loop is not what it “should” look like, I have all the colours popping through and now not even 7 minutes in I’m learning new things! (Personally I love you with and without glasses, though having no glasses you can show off your beautiful eyeliner! Whatever you feel comfortable with is what I’ll be comfortable with 🥰
yay!! but idk if this is how the sectioned or color-changing loop is supposed to look, i kind of just figured it out and now refuse to watch other tutorials because if it ain't broke, why fix it? 😂 and thanks for the feedback :)
I can't even imagine the time spent planning/making/editing this video. I admire your dedication so much!
thank you! it took about an hour or so to plan, about another hour to cut all the string (i take a while with that!!) filming probably took around 4 hrs in total, and editing took about 20 hours... export and upload took two days but that's cause my wifi was cutting in and out oop... call it 26 hours or so 😂
Alex's Innovations oh goodness I could never lol
This is an Art form all on its own. Thank you for explaining it so well. I crochet and cross-stitch and do a few other crafts, but just wanted to try this craft, but obviously every craft has its own beauty.
You are so welcome!
Just found your channel today, i make macramee and bracelets ever since i was 4, i am now 40, and i still enjoy it. I never used patterns, just made my own stuff. I am just starting to try out new insparations. 😊😊
Wow this must have taken you a long time to edit but thank you so much for making all your amazing videos for us 😊
I'd estimate it took maybe twenty hours or so editing this in all... thanks for the appreciation 😊
Can we take a moment and thank Alex........................................................THANK YOU ALEX❤❤
aww you're welcome :)
Hey Alex! I’m so excited to watch this video, I’m sure the tips will help me out, especially with alphas😄 just a tip, if you change “table of contents” in the description to “timestamps” TH-cam will section your video into the times you’ve already typed out, making it easier for viewers to skip around in the video. Oh, and also the “intro” time stamp has to start at 0:00 for it to work correctly. You don’t have to do that, but just thought I’d let you know. If that was confusing I can try to explain more 😂 also I just got contacts, and you look really good with and without glasses!
thank you!! i changed the intro timestamp to 0:00 and it worked :)
Alex's Innovations so glad I could help!
Dear Alex thank you so much! I have learnt a lot. Your explanations are very clear. Looks so easy when you do it! All your bracelets are amazing and your knots so perfect. I hope to be able to reach your perfection very soon!🥰 Greetings from Paris.
This video is the essential guide book for bracelet braided/weaving/making, especially for beginners. You don’t rush through it so that I have to keep rewinding to catch everything, but rather present detailed steps at an easy pace. Thanks for being such a big to me!
thanks so much for the kind feedback!!
This video makes me smile: seemingly out of place serene music that one would expect from a meditation video; flowing hair and curtains that speak of an air conditioner or fan somewhere in the room to augment the mood; lame wise cracks between every tutorial xD - *All interrupted every few minutes by annoying overwhelming ads 😡* (Susan W has ruined this place )
Lol it almost got everything you'd need for one of those weird ASMR videos 😂
I keep coming back to this for various starts and ends because this is so thorough and comprehensive - and I really do like the choice of music backdrop btw because it's not that up-front really catchy generic stuff that all the other channels use. Peace!
✌️
you're such a comforting and perfect person i can't believe you exist
Awwww...
This video is so helpful & answered so many of my questions!! Thank you so much for these tutorials!! This should be the first result when people search for these techniques!
thank you so much, i’m so glad you feel that way! :)
I learned so much just in this one video. Not just the ends and starts but how to read the patterns and the purpose for each knot. Thank you for taking the time and making the effort for such an amazing video. I hope you get back to making more content soon. 💜
thank you, i’m so glad to hear that! :)
thank uu i needed the single-colored start tutorial, really helpful!
Putting this on as I'm making bracelets for my friends! I can't thank you enough for the Alpha single ends!
Wonderful! You're so welcome!
THank you SO MUCH FOR THE TIME TAKEN for this video. i usually dont comment on youtube but you deserve it. dont stop creating such in depth content! its great!
thank you so so much!!
Wow! Your commitment to the bracelet community is amazing!❤
And nice Johns Hopkins shirt
Thank you! 😁 I'm so happy to be a part of it :) and thanks :)
Love your videos Alex ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
thanks :)
Happy 6th birthday to Streaky!!!😍😍😍 And I think it would look good on you to have glasses and contacts, if you have contacts then glasses are chill to wear in the evening or night.❤️❤️
He says thank you!! :)
abt the glasses or contacts get both lol you will prob need both depending on the situation
That's what I was thinking, probably better to have both! :)
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This video is so longgggg. It deserves so much more love:)
thank you
I can't believe I saw the whole video without even noticing, 😂😂 alex I really like how responsable you are I still can't believe how you make youtube videos, sell your bracelets and also study. IDOL💙
Laurasofiamontesl aw thank you :)
i think we can all agree that alex has THE BEST humor. also i love that you posted cause i was having a bad day so thank you for making me feel better alex!💕
i try 😂 glad to help make your day better :)
Alex's Innovations thank you! i am currently dealing with fat lip and numbness so lmao
This is the ultimate guide for beginners! Even I learned a few new things from it 😭We love a queen who has a lot of effort! 🙌
PS. You look beautiful in both contacts and glasses❤
Grace 0411 aw thank you!
OMG EVEN YOUR TIME SPENT REPLYING TO US ALL MUST TAKE A LONG TIME UR RLLY TOO KIND 😭❤ gotta praise a queen
Grace 0411 aww thank you 🥺 i really do appreciate y’all and want to engage with you :)
this is a super easy to understand tutorial! I usually like to do a little square knot at the end of the loop with a triangle start. i've made a bunch of loops without it and it's just not the same. square knot loops for life
Thank you for sharing Alex. Very helpful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Glad it was helpful!
I just found this video for the first time. You are such a good teacher! I want to try to start making friendship bracelets, and this video has been the most helpful of all the ones I’ve seen on YT. Thank you for taking the time to go into so much detail.
The only thing is, I wish I could just listen to your instructions without the background music. It’s distracting and hurts my head. ☹
I can't wait till I'm experienced enough to understand all of this. I'm new to this but your tutorials helped me the best!
You’ll get there, I believe in you!
Thank you so much for this! I’m glad ai found you at the beginning of my new hyperfixation haha!
I love your videos, thank you. I haven't done this in about 30 years. Thank you for the nice relaxing lessons. And I see I might be a year late to the conversation but I vote to go for contacts for college! They're so fun.
thank you! my contacts are finally coming in the mail in the next two weeks. :)
Yep…I’m also a bit late to the party too. It’s been since h.s.🏫in the 90’s since I used to do these complex f.b. I have a 7yr old niece (a👸🏼who❤her pinks & purples🙃) & a 9yr old nephew (2day, who ❤his LEGO’s & Harry Potter😉, thanx 4 that🔗) who both want me to make a bunch for them. I showed them the types I used for ALL my cousins & now have to go back over all of my skills🤦🏻♀️. My dad & I were just having a laugh🤣over how all my👩🏻🏫🧑🏽🏫were even allowing me to make them, as I would be 🪑in🪷, 🧷the f.b. to my👖& distractingly so, have all these strings flying all over the place. Occasionally they’d yell at me, but as long as I had the 🔝grades in class & 90’s on Regents/AP, they really didn’t care. I was going for an MD or PhD in psych…& I wouldn’t be surprised if you’ve got neurochemicals flooding both the mathematical & possibly (@your age & younger) crossing & creating new neurological pathways b/w the mathematical centers & the creative/spatial areas of the🧠. Kinda like doing well in orgo🤣🤣🤣🙄😖🫣😳🤦🏻♀️(ow, ow, ow🤭sorry, had to)!
Your video is REALLY good, I never really finished my ends other than braiding them. So I definitely enjoyed it. So the way you explain it all then becomes “well that was easy!” Yet, I still have to go over why you do a forward backward🪢when going directionally w/the bundles as you separate each color, but use a double f. or double backward🪢in say going thru the various chevrons. & when creating a center chevron🪢, why use a double f.? …the string is then facing in the direction of the other side. Do you then use the string from the 1 side to then go on the opposite? I guess that 1 basic🪢is confusing me as I’m creating a 6 color string single💝(pinks/purples)bracelet for my little👸🏼. Oh & don’t worry ‘bout 👓/contacts, you’re very pretty & should be confident enough in how you look that it’s not an issue. Just have fun w/it & stay safe❣️. I wish u (both) the best🫶🏻✌🏻😇.
Good for you to spend so much time on just a yt video! We live you Alex ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jewell & Roxy thank you!
Oof, the slope start save my life right now, thank you so much 🤧
You’re welcome 😊
I'm making my first thin aztec right now and I love it so much!!✨
This video is so relaxing!
Jewell & Roxy thanks! i fell asleep while editing it because the music just made me so relaxed and tired 😂
It was an excellent training video. It was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much.❤👍🌹
so glad you liked it!
watching this while knotting a zig zag bracelet!
nice!! :)
Wow! Thank you for putting so much effort and helping so many people!
my pleasure! glad to help :)
Alex!! You are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! i love you
Thank you sooo much! Your whole yt channel is a lifesaver xoxo
thank you! so glad to help :)
I like watching this kind of content, and I appreciate all the effort you put into filming and editing this. Great job👍
thanks so much for acknowledging that - it really took me forever! happy knotting :)
Wow thank you for taking the time to explain all this to me you just made my life easier!! 🤩😍
this video is amazing! thank you for making this because I've been looking for tutorials for some of these and could never find any!
i'm so glad! :)
Thanks for the video. I admire your skills and creativity :)
We're watching this video even thought we know how to make most of these starts bc we love Alex. ❤️xx
aww
Fun fact: I had a doctors appoinment and had to get two shots, and Alex is cheering me up. Two: Even though I was at the doctors for an hour, no one has watched this video all the way throught without skipping at all.
Calli Phoenix I did, I started watching the video while making a bracelet and I was too lazy to skip parts
i’m sorry about your shots :( but i’m happy i was able to help cheer you up!! :)
@@chloekx_x Not to be rude, but when I commented it was 59 minutes (the vid) ago. The video is longer than an hour, so WHEN I COMMENTED No one finished it. Thank you for replying Alex! 🤗🤗
Calli Phoenix oh I’m sorry, I thought you meant something else :)
thanks for the video i didn't realize you could do shaped ends in just a single color
Glad I could help!
Wow. Amazing video! I've been meaning in learning these techniques and now I can easily apply them and it makes sense. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the video . ✌️✌️✌️
Omg finally! This is very helpful! Thank you sooo much! 😭
Glad it helped!
this is like the most useful video ever! thank u Alex
happy to hear that! :)
One of the best channels I've found for learning how to make these bracelets! While I do appreciate the atmospheric music, sometimes it makes it hard to hear the narration. (Then again I'm very sensitive to certain frequencies, so I'm probably just a mutant.🙃)
Hi, I’m a beginning friendship bracelet maker and first-time watcher of your really cool and super informative videos! It’s really nice that you now have a ring light when recording your videos, and I know it’s hard to work with subjects who wear glasses that are in front of the camera.
You are very beautiful, and I would strongly recommend that you get rid of those darn glasses and go with contact lenses! 😉🙂
thank you!! i’m scheduled to receive my finalized contacts prescription after six visits to the doctor… 🥲 my gas bill is not having a great time
i literally love you thank you so much
Yay! Thanks for watching!!
This was so helpful! Thank you Alex I live your videos!!!!!
Glad you like them!
I've come back to this blessing of a video many times as I'm still getting used to starting bracelets :)
I have some random questions though... How long did it take you to put on all those bracelets on your arm? And what's the largest amount you wore at once?
This. Is. AWESOME!!!!! This makes my life 1,000% easier =D
yay!! that’s amazing to hear :)
Love this!!
thank you!!
I love the calming music!!
yay!! :)
Hallo Alex.. Thanks For The Video, Its Very Useful 😊❤
I enjoyed watching you for bracrlets making. I appreciate if you can teach us a simple design bracelets as beginners and the length of threads we are going to use. I like to try this as a hobby. Thank you.
love your work can't wait to start learning this can you also show us how to read the patterns you are using I am new to learning the process
Hiiii alex i love your longer vids and I'll wach this many many times
yay!! thank you :)
The rag rug aesthetic is imaculate
thank you!! i try :)
This is the only video that actually makes sense
so good.awesome
The level of well-explained detail in this video is absolutely wonderful!
What method would you recommend for starting an asymmetric bracelet - with even number of strings but just different strings on each side? Both the single start and teardrop loop are not working for me!
I'd recommend having one braid on each side -- gather all your strings, braid them all about 6" long, and then start your bracelet from there! Finish off with one more braided tie. Hopefully that makes sense. Good luck!
@@AlexInnovations I was hoping to avoid that since I prefer the loop start but thinking about it, the braided ties way is actually easier in this scenario! Thanks a lot Alex!
You improved your video quality to get more people to watch and more people to be in your pateroun which means more content for us viewers. yay
Gil Cohen yay! :)
This is a fantastic guide! Thank you thank you thank youuuuu!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Amazing video 😀 I really found what I was looking for.
i’m glad to hear that! :)
Yassss
yaaassssss
Dayumn! Thank you!
not me commenting before watching the video 😔✌🏻
it do be like that ✌️
i think you look awesome with or w/o glasses! but personally i dig the glasses
Ty do much for that tutorial i really learned alot!! Your awesome!
Mahoma Sosa Thank you! Glad it helped!
GET CONTACTS!!! YES! I am negative 3.75 in my "good" eye, and neg 4.75 in the "other" - not calling it bad LOL and I have had contacts since about 10 yrs after they invented them, and so I am a die-hard lover of the freedom of contacts. Nowadays, you can get daily wears that you soak each day, and you throw that pair away after a week or a month, whatever, AND the best invention yet, COLORED CONTACTS!
I love this thank you so much for making this!!!!!!
No problem!!
THIS IS SO USEFUL THANKYOU SO MUCH
Yay!!
I'm probably not first but I'm early! Love the video alex❤
Yay! Thank you!
YAY IVE BEEN EXCITED FOR THIS
YAY
This is AMAZING thank you so much!!
Lee C thanks for watching :)
Theank you wery much this was really halpful
yay! glad to hear :)
I think looks-wise, you look really cute in the glasses, but that's all I can say, of course for you it really just depends if you think with contacts and glasses combo, if that would be best for you, totally go for that! maybe experiment a lil :) Edit: I also used this video to end my fishbone chevron with braids! (I'm sort of a beginner and I haven't been using braids to finish my bracelets yet, and my sister says I should practice with your new video haha I love your videos:))
Great video
Thanks! :)
thank youuuu
Contacts! The glare from the ring light on your glasses at the beginning was to distracting. 👍🏻
Nice video.
thanks!!
Thanks for sharing this great video :-)
Glad you enjoyed it!!
i just watched and let me say this video helped me so much! o cant imagine how long this video took you to film and edit
thank you! it took about an hour or so to plan, about another hour to cut all the string (i take a while with that!!) filming probably took around 4 hrs in total, and editing took about 20 hours... export and upload took two days but that's cause my wifi was cutting in and out oop... call it 26 hours or so 😂
*me watching this video like my life depends on it*
(cause it does i have no clue on how to do this myself and you explained it so in detail and slowly so literally anyone could understand)
aw, it’s alright to take breaks!! i believe in you!!! 😊
@@AlexInnovations Ahh you replied! Literally made my day, and using the double start method you explained I'm currently making the most beautiful bracelet ever
@@jericholocke8050 yay!! that’s amazing to hear :))
The 90's new age ambient meditation music in the background is scalping me
are you not relaxed 🥲
39:45 is me!!!
Mira Rosenberg 😂😂
I burst out laughing so hard when you zoomed in on that frame of your eyes looking small
i had to leave it in 😂
