I just want to take a second to tell you that you have reignited my passion for beading! My local store moved to a different city and I cannot find instructors whose style I like. Since I found your channel I’m hooked!! I’ll even listen at work because of your great demeanor and calm, clear instructions. I bead for my own pleasure and I make gifts for my mother so please keep your videos coming! Maybe one day I’ll get good enough to try design 🥰
Making my way through some of your older tutorials and I have to say....you are simply amazing Stephanie!!! I love these earrings and then when you started pulling out some of your other creations, I got dizzy with crystal overload. I love what you've done!! Yep, simply amazing!!!❤️🌹
I learnt my lesson quick smart with colours in seed beads, I stick with the metallics now because I use them the most, plus black, white & cream, most of the colours I have I haven't used, I'm just starting with Rivoli and bought 2 sizes in mixed colours in a 12mm and an 8mm so I have something to play with. And I started with 11/0's and just bought 15/0's last week. I also bought some tiny 1x2 & 2x3mm rondelles and next will be the smaller bi cones, I wish I had the money to buy a bit of each but I'll get there. Thank you so much for the tips and tricks because it's helped me immensely 💗💐🙏
Thank you for sharing friendship time along with your beading. I remember your first video's time has gone, by I'm even older. Keep the talking with and giggle's there are people who are alone and need company. I'm happy you have not changed our way of teaching :)
Lovely, I made these for a Christmas present for my daughter in law. She liked these so much that she asked me to make her more & insisted on paying me. That was so sweet.!😊
Working on my second pair of these GORGEOUS earrings! Used a beautiful Siam red rivoli, along with coordinated 3mm crystals, for my first pair and they're stunning. Had to make a second pair (this time, using a lovely Montana rivoli--a beautiful, steely blue) for myself. Cannot recommend this lovely design enough and, thanks to your superb video, it's fun and easy-to-make, too.
Love these earrings. Looking for winter projects. I think we live in the same color palette but the deep colors are so beautiful! Thanks for the video and good advice.
Thank you, Stephanie! I appreciate your advice on bead color / size usage and buying / organizing tips. I also love your list of "ingredients" for the projects. I don't always use the same colors as you, but if I see a bead color I like and would want to use in something else, I can actually buy it, BECAUSE you give us the brand and color name. Great job, as always! And beading with you, in Las Vegas
+VeeFromSpicy Thanks Vee!!! I'm so glad the tutorial/video was informative for you :) Sometimes I worry about discussing too much and not getting on with the actual beading haha But I thought it was necessary this time! XOXO Viva Las Vegas :)
Hi Stephanie thank you for sharing another lovely project with us ..I so appreciate you videos. I buy up my beads when I travel to America every few months or my daughter sends them to me if I cannot get something online....I can't wait to make these earrings. Enjoy the rest of the week ahead.
Hi Stephanie, I was watching so much different video tutorials, but I like your way you teach, I like your voice and your laughing between. I'm German and I understand all your explications very well. You are my favorite teacher on youtube and I have learned a lot. Your projects are just my favorite and I have done some of your wonderful pieces. It is so easy to follow you and I have a lot of projects in my head from you I wanted to do in the early future. Thank you for all the wonderful inspiration!
Marion, thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind comment :) I'm so glad the tutorials are helpful and you are enjoying them!!! It is my pleasure to share these tutorial with you!
Fabulous earrings! I love love your color choices. They are rich and expensive looking. I just recently found you on You Tube and I want to make everything! You explain all details so well and clearly. You have now restored my confidence in bezeling. Look forward to all your new videos.
+Rita Louton Thank you Rita!!! I love teaching! TH-cam presents a special challenge as I can't answer questions in real time or see the piece! So I very much appreciate your kindness and I'm glad to know that I am getting it somewhat right haha!!! Don't let the bezel get to you - it just takes a little practice :) Fight the bezel and win LOL
I am so happy to have found this tutorial, it was so helpful because I was getting frustrated to betzel rivolis, it never worked but with your help I finally got the hang of it. This design is awesome and I love the olive/purple colour combination, too. I fell in love with your channel... I have to try out everything :-) Thank you!!
I'm so glad this tutorial helped you with your bezels!!! Thank you so much for the lovely comment💐💐💐 Don't you just want to bezel everything now? Lol I hadn't bezeled anything in years so making this tutorial was helpful to me too 😄😄😄 Welcome to my channel jazzygyrly💕
Stephenie, after all these yrs of beading, I've never bezzeled a Rivoli. These are beautiful. I just might try making these. They are stunning. And the beading tips spot on! Bead on! Summer in MN.
+Summer Thank you Summer! You should definitely try a bezel. So much fun after a few tries lol. I usually don't bezel but those Rivals just said "buy me, buy me" and I listened! So I had to get my bezeling up to speed. Glad you like the tutorial - it was a tough one but I think most of it is pretty clear. Enjoy!
I love the olivine and bronze together. These are so pretty. I am watching with a glass of my favourite pinot and once my bead order arrives, I will make the lovely tennis bracelets which will be Christmas presents and then start on the gorgeous hematite ring and bracelet for me!! Thank you for the lovely designs and hugs from the UK!
Hi, love the look of the earrings. I am going to try and make them. I really like the ring you are wearing hope we will see a video on the ring soon. I have been adding to my collection of bronzepony jewellery, My goal is to make as many of your designs as my bead stash will allow. I am having so much fun learning. Keep the video`s coming
+peggy rate Thanks Peggy - Ring for Victorian Chic is coming up this week :) The other one is the Tivoli Rivoli Ring that already has a tutorial on TH-cam :)
These earrings are so gorgeous! Stephanie--thank you so much or the useful tips.....this video had my name all over it lol, which I don't mind at all! I end up buying small packs of different colors to play with and to see the difference in color; For instance, I just ordered small pkgs of bicones in the red family: ruby, garnet, siam,etc to see what i like, then what i like i will order in different sized stones and bigger pkgs. I always start out with my favorites of black and silver, but then I need to get those in bicones, seed beads, fire polish, rivolis, SuperDuos etc....then decide what I want to make for myself and for gifts and what colors I want for gifts....it's a drawn-out process lol. But I love it and am having fun and one day I hope to sell some jewelry so it's all good :) I also hope to get to attend at least one bead show next year...that would be a dream! Thank you for sharing the informative and beautiful video!
+Tracy Ruth Thank you Tracy! I love your bead buying process :) There is nothing more frustrating than being without the one bead you need for a project so having a plan is a great idea! Sometimes though I end up ordering lots of beads with no project in mind just because they're pretty haha! Glad you liked the tutorial.XOXO
When I get my beads, I think this is going to be the first beading project I do. Im going to make a pair of these for my mother she will love them. I hope you keep doing videos, you have been my favourite channel so far. You have a lovely way about you and I love your little chats while you are working. It makes me feel like im sitting with a friend while she shows me how to bead! :D
+mochuisle79 Thank you so much for your lovely comment! When I make a tutorial I feel as if I am with my beading friends and we're hanging out having fun!!! Good luck with these - they are not hard but as a first project go slowly and email me BronzeponyBeadedJewelry@gmail.com if you need help.
I love those olive colors too... green is my favorite color so yeah it's an awesome colorway. And yes my knitting tension is super tight. I have to really watch my casting tension.
Hi Stephanie! Thank you so much for your videos! I love the colors that you use and how you explain in detail. I appreciate your advice on what beads to buy for the basics. I also have tried to buy all the beads for certain projects and now have quite a few different beads in different colors and it sure does get expensive and for me, a bit confusing on what colors I should use. Oh boy, did I fall into that trap, so your advice on buying the basics make so much sense! But by gosh I have beads, beads and more beads and never seem to have the right ones to match! Oh did I mention that I have beads! You are the best!
+Deborah Noland We just love our beads!!! There is one interesting thing about beads - you always find a use for them now or later. I still use beads that I have had for years and thought I would never use!!! The basic metallics are a must and I find that if I have them then almost anything can go with them :) Love our beads!!! You are acquiring a bead stash Deborah. Congratulations!!!
+Jani Lewis You are very welcome Jani! I am curious to know how this tutorial worked for you if and when you decide to try it. I tried to make the tutorial so the beginner would be able to follow it. I would appreciate any feedback if you make them:)
Such useful information about building up your bead inventory! Every time I look at beads I lose focus and get seduced by the colour and finishes of beads that I don't need for an immediate project. Hopefully I will recall your tips on buying in the future.
Thank you for another beautiful tutorial. Everything is awesome. Easy to follow. You actually teached me to do the most difficult CRAW ( that was the most difficult for me at that time) but you have the love and patience and the right tone of voice to teach anyone to learn to bead. Btw what is the name of that ring you are wearing in this video. Thank you kindly. 🌺
I know that this video is old, but I'm very interested in your amount of beads concept and your colours. As I started just a few years back I did the most normal mistake: to buy lots of different beads in all the colours possible. Big big mistake, so I would love if you could do a tutorial of just beads that work with everything, your comments in this video are so good! I have already started to get in the 457, 2006 Miyuki colours and is true they're wonderful useful colours. Hope is not to much bother for you to do one just of the most useful beads, colours, shapes, brands etc, Don't forget the numbers as in Europe is the only way to find them. By the way, I love your videos, works and colours!
I just LUV hanging out with you!! What a superb tutorial Stephanie! You gave so many great tips. When u pricked your lil finger, I thought, yep I've done that many times myself lol... What beader hasn't?. Right.. Just one of those things that happens. And like they say, giving your jewelry some of your DNA!😀 LOL! The earrings turned out so gorgeous! I luv em' ALL😍 I enjoyed my hour with you & can't wait till next time!! XX~Sending Much Luv your way~💚💖💚
Hi Stephanie, I love your videos and I think that would be a great idea if you make a video about purchasing beads. How and where and what to look for as in sales. Thanks again for the great videos your a super teacher.
Thank you!!! Great advice. I wish I had seen this before $700 odd in frantic spending on all them shinny beads. LOL I love your colour pallet, Feminine, Sexy, Elegant. Love your Tuts. Love the talking. Love the time length of the tuts .
G'Day My Northern Friend, "I'm back!!!!!!!!! Worn out but ready to get back in to beading again. "The Master Piece" made it to in to the show (I hope that I don't sound like I'm bragging) but it won ...1st place and Reserve Champion. I also won 1st and second for my beaded necklace and bracelet. I love these earrings..... and the three colours and now I have the time to make them.... can't wait to buy some of the beads I need and make a pair. Just a short note for now......so G'Night from Down Under to my Northern Lighter beading sister....XXOOX
+Chris Phillips Great to have you back! Congratulations for both your Master Piece and your beaded necklace and bracelet wins!!! Post pics of your wins on FB or send me pics of your wins!!! You go girl :)
You're pretty funny . . . living dangerously with beading and trying to get the needle through a small space and then the bead breaks :-) I had the same thing happen to me the other day and man oh man I just fit another bead in the space
Hi Stephanie! I LOVE these earrings. You and I have the same favorite color beads. I also love black (hematite as well) and olive green. Question - what DB# is the first delica on the left on your matt?
Hi, Stephanie, I love these earrings, but the 3mm crystal (Swarovski) does not fit snug between the two seed beads. They sit at a tilt with a lot of thread showing. Is this how it's supposed to be? Thank you!
+Cindy Brook Hi Cindy - Thank you! The Crystals should fit snugly in between the delica seed beads with little or no thread showing. Message me a pic on Bronzepony Facebook page and I'll take a look.
Love your video's and your designs. How do you make a bezel for a square stone with rounded corners, it's about 14 mm? Made the bezel for the 14mm rivoli, it came out perfect. Tried the same for the square stone and it didn't come out right. What do I do? Thank you , Dorothy
Hi Dorothy! I'm glad your round rivoli came out well😃. I couldn't explain in a comment how to decrease for a square stone so I am sending you to bead & button website for detailed instruction. I will do a tutorial on this in the future🌸 I hope this helps💜 bnb.jewelrymakingmagazines.com/-/media/import/files/pdf/d/1/8/bb9-e09online.pdf
Hi! these earrings turned out beautiful and your instructions are so easy to follow! I've been searching for a tutorial on bezeling rivoli's, I have so many and thanks to you with your several tutorials, I can put them to use! one question, I have this beautiful Rivoli I have been dying to use but it's an oval shape, 14mm X 10mm. any suggestions on how I can start off with this shape?
+Lisa Calabrese Hi Lisa! Thank you so much for your kind comment ;) I think you can bezel your oval rivoli with a peyote bezel as we did with the round one. Just adjust your beads to fit around the oval.
Thank you stephanie. I love all your tuts i especially liked the little beaded beads from your silk thread bracelet. I have a pattern i would like to share with you how can i do that?
Would I be able to continue on and use 11/0 seed beads instead of the 15/0? The 15s are really hard to come by where I am and if I can get them, super expensive. Whereas the 11s are more common but not sure how it would affect this pattern? Many thanks!
Hi Stephanie, I love all your work! Please tell me where you purchase most of your beads? I notice some of the containers holding your beads are not tubes but cases, which seems to hold a lot more beads and I like that better. Thanks
Merci beaucoup pour ce tuto si bien expliqué. Thanks you very much for this 'tuto' It's wonderful to make this earrings with You !!!! :) Joelle from Paris ;)
another thing to remember about the crystals is Swarovski announced they are making their crystals with out lead now.... which is what makes them shine! Preciosa is not removing the lead so I will be buying Preciosa and Thunder Polish(cheaper chinese crystal with lead in in it) , because we want th shine...!
I have learned so much from you ,you are a wonderful instructor Everywhere I go I tell them that everything that know was from watch you...we all just love you.I have been trying to find the color dellica sand seed beads that you use but can't find the right colors where are you getting yours.?
+Gwynn Stevens Awww you're so kind Gwynn 😍Thank you!!! I buy delicas and seeds from Fusion Beads, Aura Crystals and Beads, Artbeads, Etsy, even Amazon. The beads I used on these earrings are from fusion Beads. They may not have the same colors now but you should find something close. Hope this helps 🌻
such pretty earrings - the bezel was pretty easy, thanks for another great beading video. On Charlene's beads there is a 15- Delica dark gold # 4203 - is 4203 the right dark gold?
love your videos! I've tried this but it doesn't peyote as well as yours. did you use all delicas in this video? because my 15/0's are not delicas. thanks! I've tried twice and so frustrated with my piece.
Hi Megan🌻Just about to sign off but saw your comment! Make sure you are using all Miyuki beads. The 11/0,'s are Delicas. The 15/0's are seed beads Miyuki brand, The rivoli is Swarovski 14mm. Is your rivoli Swarovski? There is a detailed materials list is in the description box below the video in case you have a question and I'm not online to answer. Make sure you pull your bezel tight around your rivoli. If you are using Swarovski and Miyuki, it should work. If you are using a Toho or other brand15/0 it won't work. Don't give up😄 You'll get it to work!!! Let me know how it goes💕
Awww that is a bummer😁 When I'm short a couple of seed beads I check my carpet and bead cases or anywhere I might have dropped a bead! Even my table has some strays rolling around 🤓😆😉 Good luck, I hope you find them.
hi there how are you today ?men l love your page and l loooooove all your bla bla bla.you give sooooo much information for those who doens t have much experience, thank you. l like reading a bit of all coments of each video l watch, and l ve been reading the same again and again on HOW GOOD YOU ARE whit color matching. you are great. l have a question. please would you considere thinking about making a video about color matching for us? please give us some tips om how to choose. also please tell us about the metalic colors. they are beeeeautifull but l am am so scared cause l ve done a piece whit galvanized gold by miyuki and after a while the color got damage. lt was a pendant that l didnt even used. so that bead l put away on the garbage. never more.it wasnt the permanent finish. l heard that the bronze colors are stronger. is it true? l hope you will make a such video and tell us all you know about the metalic beads.and l hope to see you talking like craaaaaazy in this video and tell us all you know.hahaha l want to see you talking as you never did before hahahaha. you see l also had issues whit swarovski cristal. it was a blue color. it wasnt the ab coating. it was the other coating. l forgot right now how it s called. 2 b? not the ab coating. the other coating. l am really scared about the beads. l am not rich. l must save money to buy and than they get damaged. its really anoyng.l want to buy the best. l need beads that last and l want beads that shines. l must give some bling bling to my jewels. l am buyng a lot of transparent beads after that. l know they are safe,.l am so scared. please HELP. thank you for this amazing page and wish you a blessed inspired day. kisses and hugs from the Netherlands. nilza wilgenhof
+Henk Wilgenhof Henk - I think a video on beads and finishes and metallics is a great idea! I have been thinking about that for a long time. I will definitely do a video on color matching, bead finishes and metallic beads. I will do this as soon as possible :) Until I do, a few quick tips would be: use permanently galvanized gold beads not just galvanized! Can you believe there is a difference? Yes the galvanized beads need to be permanently galvanized. For earrings use gold filled not plated ear wires. The plated will tarnish. Swarovski is usually consistent with there coatings but remember that any coating can rub off in time. I try to stick to uncoated beads and if its a rivoli I paint it with clear nail polish on the back to keep the coating from rubbing off. More to come on a video. I hope this helps for now!
+Bronzepony Beaded Jewelry thank you. what nice to know you re planing to makd a such video. it wil be great. about the nail polish on the rivoli l heard about thal allready. l also am investting on cristal cleaar cristal colors and fire polished beads. l just boght some cristal tear drops beads to make the victorian chic necklace of you. also clear. no coating. thank you darling. nice day
thank you for such a wonderful tutorial! your laugh sounds like my moms and it so comforting! I tried to find your facebook page from the link but it says page doesn't exist?
I love that you don’t edit out your boo boos. Shows me that I’m not the only one who goofs. I prick myself with my needle all the time! And my husband always knows when I do. “OUCH!”
Beautiful tutorial, love the earrings. Now I can't decide between the amethyst or the black or maybe blue color. Need to think about it a bit more. Thanks for sharing. xoxo
I don't go shoe shopping anymore, either!! All my money goes into beads, but then I go and give everything I make away!! Giving is so good for the soul, but I really should try selling some of my beautiful pieces so I can at least support my bead-buying habit ... I'm handicapped so going to the markets to sell my jewelry is out of the question (and some of my necklaces & bracelets are $250 & people just don't spend like that at markets anyway). So I wondered if anyone would know how I should market or sell my jewelry from home without having to invest in a website??
I so love your tutorials. I watch them over and over, pause, and play. Thank you for encouraging me to broaden my beading horizons!
Thank you so much 😊
I like how much you talk....feels like a friend showing me what to do.
it is the same to me, dear Capella, Stephanie is amazing 💜
I just want to take a second to tell you that you have reignited my passion for beading! My local store moved to a different city and I cannot find instructors whose style I like.

The black are my favs so far. They would look fabulous on New Years Eve . You have so much design talent.
+Terry Turner Thank you Terry! You are so sweet - I love the New Years eve idea!
Those are so gorgeous. I have given up on bezels today. I am so frustrated. I will pick it up again tomorrow. Thanks for sharing your talents.

Snacks are always good when beading 😆🥰🙏
You are so talented. Thanks for sharing. They are beautiful.
I’m making this design for gifts this Christmas, thank you much for your videos and designs. 💕
+Beth Durbin Wonderful gifts Beth 🙏😃🌻 I’m so glad you like these earrings!
green is my favor color and this olive color is fantastic, WELL DONE beautiful, M :):):)
Stephanie, I really love the earrings that you made in this video ❣ Could you possibly tell me the DB# for the Delicas that were purple/ green ??
your an awesome teacher ,i enjoyed listening to your spectacular jewelry makings.
Thank you so much for the beading tips. You are one of a kind. Love your videos.
+Denise Winant Thank you so much Denise 🙏🌻😃
Thanks for another great video. I like your ideas about buying beads too. I am just starting so I appreciate all the helpful information.
+Jani Lewis You are very welcome Jani! I am curious to know how this tutorial worked for you if and when you decide to try it. I tried to make the tutorial so the beginner would be able to follow it. I would appreciate any feedback if you make them:)
OMGosh! These earrings are so beautiful! Guess I need to get some Rivoli stones.
Always love your video. Sewing along with your viewer start to fin ❤❤❤
Thanks so much 😊
Such useful information about building up your bead inventory! Every time I look at beads I lose focus and get seduced by the colour and finishes of beads that I don't need for an immediate project. Hopefully I will recall your tips on buying in the future.
Thank you so much 😊 🙏🌻🌸
Thank you for another beautiful tutorial. Everything is awesome. Easy to follow. You actually teached me to do the most difficult CRAW ( that was the most difficult for me at that time) but you have the love and patience and the right tone of voice to teach anyone to learn to bead. Btw what is the name of that ring you are wearing in this video. Thank you kindly. 🌺
You’re most welcome Adina💕🙏😊
I love them. Good to hear from you again. A big hug ! Melinda
+melinda lacatus Big HUG right back at ya, melinda!!! Thanks for the nice comment :)
Hi Stephanie, do you have any videos that are earrings made with a square (cushion cut) 4mm presiosa? I would love to make my granddaughter who is 10
So Beautiful these Earrings Stephanie & it's my favorite color too! Thank you dear Stephanie!!!
Thank you Sylvie! 💚 I always think of you when I use that green😘
Oh! this is sweet & touch my heart dear Stephanie,thank you xxx
Love it , Beautiful ! You have good taste when it comes to picking colors of bead. Love it ! God bless
+Katherine Martinez Thank you so much for the kind words Katherine!
I know that this video is old, but I'm very interested in your amount of beads concept and your colours. As I started just a few years back I did the most normal mistake: to buy lots of different beads in all the colours possible. Big big mistake, so I would love if you could do a tutorial of just beads that work with everything, your comments in this video are so good! I have already started to get in the 457, 2006 Miyuki colours and is true they're wonderful useful colours. Hope is not to much bother for you to do one just of the most useful beads, colours, shapes, brands etc, Don't forget the numbers as in Europe is the only way to find them. By the way, I love your videos, works and colours!
Love this pattern - Question for you.... the earring flips - any suggestions to keep bezel forward? Thanks
They are beautiful, so new to beading, I was wondering if the pattern can be down sized ? Maybe an 8mm ?
I just LUV hanging out with you!! What a superb tutorial Stephanie! You gave so many great tips.
When u pricked your lil finger, I thought, yep I've done that many times myself lol... What beader hasn't?. Right.. Just one of those things that happens. And like they say, giving your jewelry some of your DNA!😀 LOL!
The earrings turned out so gorgeous! I luv em' ALL😍 I enjoyed my hour with you & can't wait till next time!! XX~Sending Much Luv your way~💚💖💚
Fantastic... loved every minute. Thank you!
Hi Stephanie, I love your videos and I think that would be a great idea if you make a video about purchasing beads. How and where and what to look for as in sales. Thanks again for the great videos your a super teacher.
Thanks for sharing, I always enjoy watching you, your work is so uniformed and neat. I aspire to be like you 😊💖 another lovely piece.
Aww thank you so much Cavelle!!! You're very sweet and appreciated!!!
Thank you!!! Great advice. I wish I had seen this before $700 odd in frantic spending on all them shinny beads. LOL I love your colour pallet, Feminine, Sexy, Elegant. Love your Tuts. Love the talking. Love the time length of the tuts .
Thank you so much 😊 You're so kind💐💐💐

Yes,yes! Stephanie tells us how to bead with an assuring voice that makes you think you can accomplish any beading project easily.
You always have some of the most elegant and beautiful designs. Thank you for sharing them!
Thank you so much Sharrie💖 I so appreciate your lovely comment😄😀😃
Do you have a video for the ring on your right hand?
Hola que video me recomiendas para empezar a hacer esa técnica de forrar las piedras? Saludos
G'Day My Northern Friend, "I'm back!!!!!!!!! Worn out but ready to get back in to beading again. "The Master Piece" made it to in to the show (I hope that I don't sound like I'm bragging) but it won ...1st place and Reserve Champion. I also won 1st and second for my beaded necklace and bracelet. I love these earrings..... and the three colours and now I have the time to make them.... can't wait to buy some of the beads I need and make a pair. Just a short note for now......so G'Night from Down Under to my Northern Lighter beading sister....XXOOX
+Chris Phillips Great to have you back! Congratulations for both your Master Piece and your beaded necklace and bracelet wins!!! Post pics of your wins on FB or send me pics of your wins!!! You go girl :)
You're pretty funny . . . living dangerously with beading and trying to get the needle through a small space and then the bead breaks :-) I had the same thing happen to me the other day and man oh man I just fit another bead in the space
Hi Stephanie! I LOVE these earrings. You and I have the same favorite color beads. I also love black (hematite as well) and olive green.
Question - what DB# is the first delica on the left on your matt?
Hi Ms. Stephanie, question. what color sead beads and Delicas did you chose to make the jet black Rivoli.. please let me know.
Hi Donna! I added the black version materials list to the video materials list. Sorry I missed that one💚💜💗 I was wearing them today😄😘💕
I love your creations. Is there a place where I can buy them? Have you a shop like Etsy or similar? Thank you so much.
So Beautiful Before I subscribed to your page I bet I have watched all of your videos twice lol your colors are amazing...Happy Thanksgiving
Hi, Stephanie, I love these earrings, but the 3mm crystal (Swarovski) does not fit snug between the two seed beads. They sit at a tilt with a lot of thread showing. Is this how it's supposed to be? Thank you!
+Cindy Brook Hi Cindy - Thank you! The Crystals should fit snugly in between the delica seed beads with little or no thread showing. Message me a pic on Bronzepony Facebook page and I'll take a look.
Soon beautiful,Stephanie!!!
Thank you so much Sarasuri💐💐💐
Another great video! You really are so talented. Thanks again for great video . I always watch yours as so well explained! . X
Thank you so much Lindsey😃🌻💜
Love your video's and your designs. How do you make a bezel for a square stone with rounded corners, it's about 14 mm? Made the bezel for the 14mm rivoli, it came out perfect. Tried the same for the square stone and it didn't come out right. What do I do? Thank you , Dorothy
Hi Dorothy! I'm glad your round rivoli came out well😃. I couldn't explain in a comment how to decrease for a square stone so I am sending you to bead & button website for detailed instruction. I will do a tutorial on this in the future🌸 I hope this helps💜

Hi! these earrings turned out beautiful and your instructions are so easy to follow! I've been searching for a tutorial on bezeling rivoli's, I have so many and thanks to you with your several tutorials, I can put them to use! one question, I have this beautiful Rivoli I have been dying to use but it's an oval shape, 14mm X 10mm. any suggestions on how I can start off with this shape?
+Lisa Calabrese Hi Lisa! Thank you so much for your kind comment ;) I think you can bezel your oval rivoli with a peyote bezel as we did with the round one. Just adjust your beads to fit around the oval.
Me encanta su manera de enseñar y las piezas muy lindas. Muchas gracias.
Thank you for your beautiful Tutorial is oll time so super thank you so much
Thank you stephanie. I love all your tuts i especially liked the little beaded beads from your silk thread bracelet. I have a pattern i would like to share with you how can i do that?
Thank you 🌸You can message me on Bronzepony Facebook page 🌻
Would I be able to continue on and use 11/0 seed beads instead of the 15/0? The 15s are really hard to come by where I am and if I can get them, super expensive. Whereas the 11s are more common but not sure how it would affect this pattern? Many thanks!
+Rachael Scott Your bezel will not close adequately around the stone without the smaller beads😉
Hi Stephanie, I love all your work! Please tell me where you purchase most of your beads? I notice some of the containers holding your beads are not tubes but cases, which seems to hold a lot more beads and I like that better. Thanks
Paulette Hill
I often use the colors I have on hand as substitutes for the colors you're showing.
Very nice!
Merci beaucoup pour ce tuto si bien expliqué.
Thanks you very much for this 'tuto' It's wonderful to make this earrings with You !!!! :)
Joelle from Paris ;)
+Joëlle AZANCOT My pleasure to share this with you Joelle :) Thank you for your kind comment!
another thing to remember about the crystals is Swarovski announced they are making their crystals with out lead now.... which is what makes them shine! Preciosa is not removing the lead so I will be buying Preciosa and Thunder Polish(cheaper chinese crystal with lead in in it) , because we want th shine...!
I have learned so much from you ,you are a wonderful instructor Everywhere I go I tell them that everything that know was from watch you...we all just love you.I have been trying to find the color dellica sand seed beads that you use but can't find the right colors where are you getting yours.?
+Gwynn Stevens Awww you're so kind Gwynn 😍Thank you!!! I buy delicas and seeds from Fusion Beads, Aura Crystals and Beads, Artbeads, Etsy, even Amazon. The beads I used on these earrings are from fusion Beads. They may not have the same colors now but you should find something close. Hope this helps 🌻
Soo beautiful Stephanie
Wonderful thank you Stephanie.
Thank you so much 😊
such pretty earrings - the bezel was pretty easy, thanks for another great beading video.
On Charlene's beads there is a 15- Delica dark gold # 4203 - is 4203 the right dark gold?
Hi S. A. M. The dark gold seed bead I use is from Fire Mountain Gems #457
I love all of your videos but how do you keep the needle so straight lol
love your videos! I've tried this but it doesn't peyote as well as yours. did you use all delicas in this video? because my 15/0's are not delicas. thanks! I've tried twice and so frustrated with my piece.
Hi Megan🌻Just about to sign off but saw your comment! Make sure you are using all Miyuki beads. The 11/0,'s are Delicas. The 15/0's are seed beads Miyuki brand, The rivoli is Swarovski 14mm. Is your rivoli Swarovski? There is a detailed materials list is in the description box below the video in case you have a question and I'm not online to answer. Make sure you pull your bezel tight around your rivoli. If you are using Swarovski and Miyuki, it should work. If you are using a Toho or other brand15/0 it won't work. Don't give up😄 You'll get it to work!!! Let me know how it goes💕
Miriam Sigal; how did you answer my question?
Beatiful
Thank you 🙏
Can you believe that I am 4, yes 4 delicate beads short!!! Omg!!
Awww that is a bummer😁 When I'm short a couple of seed beads I check my carpet and bead cases or anywhere I might have dropped a bead! Even my table has some strays rolling around 🤓😆😉 Good luck, I hope you find them.
Your videos are great!.Please what material is your placemat or whatever is the thing you use under your beads?
Thank you😃 I use a Vellux bead mat. Size 11x14. You can find them at most craft stores and online bead websites. Cost is about $5 for a pack of three.
+Bronzepony Beaded Jewelry Thank you very much!!!😃
hi there how are you today ?men l love your page and l loooooove all your bla bla bla.you give sooooo much information for those who doens t have much experience, thank you. l like reading a bit of all coments of each video l watch, and l ve been reading the same again and again on HOW GOOD YOU ARE whit color matching. you are great. l have a question. please would you considere thinking about making a video about color matching for us? please give us some tips om how to choose. also please tell us about the metalic colors. they are beeeeautifull but l am am so scared cause l ve done a piece whit galvanized gold by miyuki and after a while the color got damage. lt was a pendant that l didnt even used. so that bead l put away on the garbage. never more.it wasnt the permanent finish. l heard that the bronze colors are stronger. is it true? l hope you will make a such video and tell us all you know about the metalic beads.and l hope to see you talking like craaaaaazy in this video and tell us all you know.hahaha l want to see you talking as you never did before hahahaha. you see l also had issues whit swarovski cristal. it was a blue color. it wasnt the ab coating. it was the other coating. l forgot right now how it s called. 2 b? not the ab coating. the other coating. l am really scared about the beads. l am not rich. l must save money to buy and than they get damaged. its really anoyng.l want to buy the best. l need beads that last and l want beads that shines. l must give some bling bling to my jewels. l am buyng a lot of transparent beads after that. l know they are safe,.l am so scared. please HELP. thank you for this amazing page and wish you a blessed inspired day. kisses and hugs from the Netherlands. nilza wilgenhof
+Henk Wilgenhof Henk - I think a video on beads and finishes and metallics is a great idea! I have been thinking about that for a long time. I will definitely do a video on color matching, bead finishes and metallic beads. I will do this as soon as possible :) Until I do, a few quick tips would be: use permanently galvanized gold beads not just galvanized! Can you believe there is a difference? Yes the galvanized beads need to be permanently galvanized. For earrings use gold filled not plated ear wires. The plated will tarnish. Swarovski is usually consistent with there coatings but remember that any coating can rub off in time. I try to stick to uncoated beads and if its a rivoli I paint it with clear nail polish on the back to keep the coating from rubbing off. More to come on a video. I hope this helps for now!
+Bronzepony Beaded Jewelry thank you. what nice to know you re planing to makd a such video. it wil be great. about the nail polish on the rivoli l heard about thal allready. l also am investting on cristal cleaar cristal colors and fire polished beads. l just boght some cristal tear drops beads to make the victorian chic necklace of you. also clear. no coating. thank you darling. nice day
Thank you for this tutorial - you make it easy for us
+wally kimball My pleasure to share this with you 😉🙏🌻
Beautiful job! The name of the jewel makes me laugh because Tivoli and Rivoli are two italian cities
Fantastic work.
Thank you 🙏
all this while im wondering what base colour to get.. thanks for the tips.. steffanie..
+Rose Merra You are very welcome Rose!
I love your colors.
Your projects are beautiful 😀
+Rozy Roan Thank you so much Rozy🌻
thank you for such a wonderful tutorial! your laugh sounds like my moms and it so comforting! I tried to find your facebook page from the link but it says page doesn't exist?
You're welcome Melissa! I fixed the link to my Facebook page - thanks for letting me know :)

My rivoli keeps falling out, but I think 34 would have been too tight. 35 probably would be perfect. Wish we could use odd amount.
+denise winant Are you using a Miyuki Seed Beads? If yes, it should fit so tighten up on your tension and see if that helps😃
I love that you don’t edit out your boo boos. Shows me that I’m not the only one who goofs. I prick myself with my needle all the time! And my husband always knows when I do. “OUCH!”
Haha - Ouch should be included in beading vocabulary 😆🤪😊
That's funny.
Adorei o vídeo, bem charmoso o brinco.
Me encanta mucho sus trabajos son muy bonitas y my bien hechos lastima que no sean en español gracias
De nada. Gracias por ver 🌻
Thank you very much!!!!! 💐💐💐
Beautiful tutorial, love the earrings. Now I can't decide between the amethyst or the black or maybe blue color. Need to think about it a bit more. Thanks for sharing. xoxo
+Andree Caron Than you Andree! Love the blue idea :)
Love them!
I don't go shoe shopping anymore, either!! All my money goes into beads, but then I go and give everything I make away!! Giving is so good for the soul, but I really should try selling some of my beautiful pieces so I can at least support my bead-buying habit ... I'm handicapped so going to the markets to sell my jewelry is out of the question (and some of my necklaces & bracelets are $250 & people just don't spend like that at markets anyway). So I wondered if anyone would know how I should market or sell my jewelry from home without having to invest in a website??
Great tutorial.
Thank you for understanding our situation in the prices of all the different kinds of bead purchases. Also, do you need money for a pair of shoes?😂
😊🙏🩷
So pretty!
