    I've watched many a beading tutorial, and this one really stands out for clarity of instruction and detail. It feels professional, but interesting and not at all stiff. Kudos to the instructor for her clear speaking voice and enunciation. This makes it easy for the viewer to follow along and to simply focus on the details. GREAT JOB! And I learned something new. I'll definitely be back for more!

    Wow! I've never even heard of French wire. It looks so much nicer than those ugly wire guards. I'm purchasing some of that stuff for sure. It makes for a lovely finish!

      I agree - I like the look of it much more than wire guards!! :-) Cleaner, without attracting more attention to the clasp area. -Leah

  • @josephinerodriguez6332
    @josephinerodriguez6332 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love your tutorial. I started using french wire because it does give a piece a very finished look. The only thing is that I notice the french wire kinks up. Is there a special way I should store it so this doesn't happen?

    • @EurekaCrystalBeads
      @EurekaCrystalBeads  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Carefully. Store it carefully. :-) LOL.... I store mine in a small zip lock bag carefully in a storage drawer where I know it won't get jostled around. You could also try pre-cutting all of your pieces and then you'll 1) have them ready to use when you need them and 2) they won't be in a long segment anymore where they would be more likely to kink up. Hope that's helpful!

    @thomaswentworth9380 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video! I noticed you used sterling silver crimp beads, but that you also cautioned against using low-quality material. Are sterling the best? How about plated (gold, for example)?

    • @EurekaCrystalBeads
      @EurekaCrystalBeads  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Thomas! For something silver-colored, Sterling Silver would be the best. If you're in need of a gold option, you could certainly use the gold plated ones you mentioned. It's more crucial for me that it's a TUBE crimp (as opposed to a round crimp bead) rather than what it's made from. (You're covering it with a crimp cover - theoretically - anyway) Stick with the tube variety, and you'll be good to go. :-)

  • @mmedeuxchevaux
    @mmedeuxchevaux 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    excellent instructions. i noticed though that you didn't stress that the wire should be parallel and not crossed. i'm finding it extremely difficult to tell - especially after the jewelry piece has been beaded - if the wire is positioned correctly.

    • @leahwyckoff4791
      @leahwyckoff4791 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for the comment! :-) The wires being parallel can be helpful, but not detrimental. Many times, the wires slip back to being crossed as you crimp them (in my experience) - and the wires crossing doesn't generally equal a death sentence for the piece. I'll make sure to stress that next time though!! :-)
