As a person who has a raging nickel allergy I can really appreciate the time and care that you put into testing your materials. It truly shows your integrity not only as a company, but as a person.🖤
I have been miserable trying to find Good chain at an affordable price. Thanks so much for doing that work for me. You are appreciated.
I'm so glad to be helpful!
I too have major metal allergies to nickel. My ears swell up, itch and weep..I am so glad that you did a video on it.
And could you please do a video on identifying certain gemstones and crystals. That would be so informative. I was gifted a bunch of small bags, and i have no idea as to what they are. You are an awesome teacher, Von, and I trust your explanation. Keep on enlightening us all.
OMG Von you asked if this video was useful??? A RESOUNDING YESSSS!!!! I feel so lost when I need to buy supplies and when you share your thoughts and experiences with vendors and materials it is ever so helpful! Money is extremely tight for me and by sharing as you did with this unboxing, it has taken the scary out of shopping for materials. You have my endless gratitude. Please continue your fantastic videos. ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so glad this was helpful!
Rolo chain is my favorite for bracelet extenders. I would love to see a video with the results of it on your skin, whether it turns grin or whatever.
Much respect for sharing your source and initial feedback. Dirty chain makes such a huge mess and is such an expensive disappointment.
Many Thxs for this “unboxing!” It was Spot On! Just what I need! By your Sharing this info it will save me a lot of money and time! I have viewed it twice and will be doing so again as I save to purchase chains and write out my order list! Blessings to you and yours!❤️ 🙏🏽❤️
I am so glad to be helpful to you, Star!
Hi Von! I would have given this video two thumbs up if they had the little picture for it! Thank you so much for going through the trouble of doing this on video for us! This helped me so much because I'm always trying to find out how to look for the best deal that is still a good product. I will be following along to see how it goes when you update us in 6 months. Thank you again- your videos are just great!💜
Thank you! Very helpful. I really appreciate your candor. I worry about inexpensive chains causing itchiness on sensitive neck skin. Looking forward to your test results!
My understanding is that Panda Hall’s shipping costs are pretty high. They charge by weight or volume (I don’t recall which), and I found it difficult to maximize the amount purchased without going into the next shipping cost bracket. Once I included shipping, it seemed to still be a good deal but less so. What was your experience?
I bought some chain from Panda Hall years ago. I was looking for 2mm or smaller and colored, ie red, black, green, blue and was just amazed at all the colors and sizes they had to offer. Yes, chain that is that small is a bear to work with but it is worth it when using it for fringe, hand flowers, and ornaments.
I'm retired and new to jewelry making and love when you do videos like this. It's so expensive to buy jewelry supplies at places like Michael's and such. I am learning so much from you about so many things. Keep it up. Can't wait to get my 1st crafting box.
Just purchased a bit of chain today to trial and saw your unboxing video. I found this to be a helpful going forward. I like a lot of Panda Hall’s products.
Those prices are amazing.
I really appreciate you doing this video and I hope you do more like it. This did help to see the difference in the chains. I hope I can find these chains at the same low price. thank you again..
So glad I watched this !! Thank you for posting your videos.
These kinds of videos are what led me to order from Parawire. My youngest has serious metal allergies, but loves copper jewelry (and looks very manly in it!) He married a young woman, a dance instructor, who also has metal allergies, which I also must take into account when making jewelry for her and her daughter. So, please do make more videos like this, I think they are very helpful! (and thank you again for pointing me to Parawire!) 😊
I love Parawire! Without Von, I probably never would have bought from them. She needs to be on commission for all the sales she's generated for them.
@@nitagail77 Absolutely!
AND -Parawire is the ONLY place that has good silver-filled wire (that's not as expressive as etsy sellers) anymore & they used fine silver [99.9%+] NOT singeing for the layer of silver!!
Thank for showing and telling us about these
Watching this in replay and am thrilled to see this kind of product review. It is always difficult to make purchases and realize they are not up to the standards we want. Can't wait for your final opinion on the quality and durability. Thank you for this video and would look forward to an others you might choose to do. You are a true gem among stones!
Tysm for helping us out by being so transparent :-) your a blessing
I really appreciate this video. I've never ordered from Panda Hall. But I have ordered from people who, I suspect, do buy from them. I have always been happy with the quality. I'm thinking now I will order directly and save even more. Thank you for sharing.
Right on!
I just bought some chain from temu three of the spools the chain just snapped but the other 21 spools were ok i only pulled gently on the chains that snapped they felt brittle cost around £9 for a set of 8 spools you also got lobster hooks and rings think I will give panda haul a try ❤
Thanks Von for the pet test. I like to do this with my beads. Happy crafting!
😄I'm so glad I'm not the only one! LOL, I get my fire-polish out just to gaze lovingly at them!😂
Big help!……Thank you!!!
Super helpful & appreciated.
Thank you! I'm glad to be helpful!
It's so hard to find good chain, so thank you for posting this. I'll check out the website for sure!
I'm so glad to be helpful to you!
Thanx. I needed this info
All of your videos are helpful hon, so don’t stop showing us what you buy. ❤
I love how you do not sugar coat your reviews of items. I was looking for a good brand of wire to use for jewelry and ran across your video about para wire. You saved me a lot of time and aggravation. Thank you for doing these type of videos!
Hi Von, this is very helpful. Thank you.
Love love love this video--- I struggle trying to find chain for a reasonable price - I do make jewelry to make money... LOL Thank you.
Thank you for doing this! I need to order chain and will check them out.
Thank you for doing this! I also got my chain from The Ring Lord. I look forward to the follow up video.
I totally find videos like this very helpful
I appreciate this video because on the marketing/advertising end of their business, I've been most displeased with Panda Hall. So to see the quality of chain is a very pleasant surprise.
Thank you so much for this! I was shopping for chain last week and didn't buy any because I was so lost. This was super helpful!
Incredibly useful, thanks so much! (I introduced myself at Dragoncon, I was wearing the Ukrainian sunflower witch cosplay. Thanks again for getting me through the pandemic with some sanity and joy intact)
Yeah - I would try Rio Grande for the copper stuff and possibly the sterling beads as well. (Can't remember how much i paid for my bread as few months ago....) But thank you for ALLLLLLLLL of your videos, being SO transparent/honest, and your amazing tutorials!
MAHALO NUI LOA & ALOHA!!
P.S. They (Rio) used to also had silver-filled beads as well!
Thank you! I'll have to check them out!
thank you so much for doing this vod!! I have so much trouble finding chains I like.
I found bright copper chain on rio grand idk if it's any good I haven't bought any yet this is the first time I'm commenting on a video and I love what you do I've been watching your videos for years and you inspire me every time I watch one thank you for doing everything you do and taking so much time to help others out you are a wonderful person
Thank you so much for this video. I've been trying to find a chain distributor myself, so this was extremely helpful. I'm definitely doing at panda hall for my chain for a trial run. You guys are amazing!
Sooooo helpful! Thanks for doing this video.
Thanks so much for this video. I have been looking for some good chains, but never just what to buy.
I'm glad to be helpful to you!
I thought this was great. I love chain and I'm going to live vicariously through your chain haul. I absolutely love the feel of it (well, most of the time--lack of quality shows). I love to see the supplies you buy for your studio. The chain shows that you are "of the people" and use the same suppliers as we mere mortals do. But it also shows us what *you*, a professional, chooses to use and you tell us why. Valuable intel, indeed. So, bring it on! (You should probably be charging for this kind of intel. Thank you for always remembering the little guys, and for giving us this info for free.)
I get my Sterling silver spacer beads from Rio Grande. Really trust their products.
I so enjoyed your video I'm new to using chain on my pieces and I feel that the information you gave was great thank you for taking the time to show us your buy
Ooh I love rolo chain and that is a better deal than I have been getting
This was awesome, thank you.
Thank you so much, this was great! I have had the hardest time finding specific chain and saw many in this video that I will purchase for myself. It helps to see the actual size and to have a clue about the quality in advance.
ty.
❤️😊❤️
I, too, hoard plastic bags.
Very useful video. Thank you 😊
Wonderfully helpful, as always. Really appreciate your integrity and transparency.
Thank you for your kindness, Nanci!
Awesome review - super helpful, thank you! Please do these sort of things as often as you can!
Hey Von! Learned a lot about chain - very interesting!
Always interested how your chicken nuggets stack up! ;)
I liked this video, I bought some chain, and it was a disaster. I'll give Panda Hall a try!
This is information that I am SO grateful for. Thank you so much ❤
Love these videos, super helpful, thank you! (runs off to place pandahall order)...
This was great - filled with important information. Thanks so very much.
Thank You❣️ Great video and extremely helpful.
This video was awesome! Thanks for sharing 👍 And yes I have been having a hard time finding antique copper enameled chain. So thank you again for your time!
You mentioned that 304 stainless is supposed to be low in nickel. Actually it is a highly alloyed 18/8 steel which means it contains high amounts of chromium and nickel. The nickel level is specified at 8.0-10.5% nickel. It is still considered hypoallergenic because the nickel is bound and releases no nickel ions onto the skin.
This is so good to know, thank you!
I've often looked at chain online, but never really known what is best to get, so seeing this and hearing your descriptions is very helpful. Thank you.
You are such a wonderful person. GOD BLESS YOU AND RANDY AND FAMILY.
This was super helpful. I was just getting ready to buy some bulk chain and had no clue what to buy. Thank you bunches for this!
Thank you for sharing! Love insight on such things! Look forward to follow-up! Hugs 😍🥰
Thank you for doing videos like this! Extremely helpful!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!
Von, thanks for sharing this content! I’ve bought premade chains from Michael’s before with hit and miss results. You did good girl!
Thank you Von
❤❤❤❤
This video was extremely helpful.
It made me realize I'm spending way too much money for my little packs of chains. Thank you for sharing... You are there BEST🏆.
I love your detail narrative and testing.
Thank you for your kindness, I'm glad to be helpful!
Enjoyed the video, usual. Gave me some much needed insight into chains! 💕
Right on! I'm glad to be helpful to you! ❤
This was very helpful. Going over to Pandhal right now. I'm just a novice but purchasing some of this chain will save me lots of money even if it takes me a long time to use it.
Thks for the tip about Lt silver turning goldfish. I have some jump rings sitting out in a bottle and I noticed some of them in the bottle look goldis tone instead of bright Silverstone. Going to put those in a drawer right now before the entire bottle turns.
I absolutely love your tutorials. They are so specific, especially the chainmaille ones.
Thanks for all the great information you share with us.
I love that you are doing this. As I am one who is alergic to ALL metal, sterling and high grade gold included, I can not try any metals I get. So ya, thanks for this.
Awesome... I'm shopping for chain right now... love PH just not the shipping 😮
I’m very particular with chains and earrings. Sterling Silver or Gold Vermeil. I’ve bought most of the gold out of Hungary and Israel. Silver depends on what kind I want. Made all my head pins too. But def sold more with these than the fake stuff. ❤
What about sterling carabiner, push gate clasps, etc? I can't find consistent quality
@@FourJaysFour I usually only use the precious metals. Even copper makes me turn green. And I itch like mad on fake chains.
Thank you so much Von!! Now I know where to go for my chain!! I'm so tired of w.m. never having what I need in a hurry and I have panic attacks driving, so going almost to ks city isn't happening lol...
I bought some chain from Amazon, in silver color and after 6 months the chain turn a copper color. sad!
I understand the feeling of the chain. Had to replace a chain that kept scratching my neck. The squared chain is what my chain looked like that was scratchy.
I bought some earring hooks from walmart and put them in my ears and it peeled in my ears, had to work hard to remove the pieces out of my ears. Scary
.Very helpful video! Thank you!
I find that the bright silver does tend to turn gold like.
Can you do a video for beginners on maybe the best wire and sizes and then to start out with without going broke? Maybe a beginner set up?
I would love to see where you get your clasps and things like that and prices, I trust your judgement, I don't have a ton to spend like you, and don't want to buy stuff that doesn't hold up, I hate to sell something to someone and it breaks... Have a great day!!
If only Parawire would make chain with their wires..!
Dood! I read your comment, and my heart did a little jolt. I love Parawire. If they'd supply chain, all of us on the channel would make them rich.
Hey April! Brilliant idea! I just emailed Von with your idea and suggested she should partner up with ParaWire and pitch the chain idea! We should ALL rally!!!
You may want to write the code on the spools or better yet tape the code stickers on the spools. 🤔
I found the video very informative. Thanks. 👍
That's a really good idea! Thank you!
Loved this video, it is super hard to find good chains for a good price. I'm also in search of a bright copper spool of chain. If all else fails, I think the rose gold and red copper are acceptable substitutes.
this is awesome! Chain has been one thing I have a hard time with because I want to buy it in person so I can feel it and see if its good, but the only place near me that sells chain is like michaels or walmart and I know some of it can be good, but I don't want any fake metals and I'd rather not pay a huge marked up price so this is super helpful! Especially because I'm in the process of trying to buy some stuff to start making inventory and chain was one I was avoiding LOL
I will say when you mentioned if chain making machines were a thing I was curious myself so I went googling to see what I could find and theres a couple websites that sell machines that make chain it looks like, of course you have to ask for a quote though and I didn't do that part so I have no idea how much they would cost but I'm sure a couple thousand or more LOL BUT its cool to know that they exist for us to buy! One of the websites even had a live chat feature that pops up so you can ask questions which I thought was cool. Of course I don't remember which one now as I closed my tab LOL but just google "Jewelry chain making machine" and theres a few that will pop up :)
The only "bright copper" chain I've seen is referred to as "Rose Gold" and it's not the rich copper we've been looking for. Thank you for branching out and testing some new chain!
Hi Avon, you can make chain, just very time consuming. They’re awesome, I need to buy some ready made chains x
I love wearing sterling silver, but have to clean it quite often after I wear it. I have a body chemistry that turns it black really fast. I also cannot wear watches that touch my skin. I kill the watch batteries.
I make a chain only bracelet and wear it 24/7 and so far have not found one that the silver color doesn’t wear away. Some show wear in less than a week. Will be waiting for your test info. TYFS this info
I find the rolo chain works really well with some of my pieces! (Unfortunately I can't post a pic here)
Will you put the places you buy your chains down in your area so we can check it out too ty
Ha, I have a bunch of chain sitting in my cart on Pandahall! I have to go thru and save a bunch of them for later so I can afford the order lol. Btw, you were pulling labels off a lot of the spools - I like to leave those where I can for reordering purposes. 😊
Isn't 0.6mm 20g? I'm pretty sure it is 😁... Rio Grande has beads but I'm going to be honest. I got a multi colored, multi sized pack from temu and they have NO SEAM AT ALL! Their Amazing!
Love this kind of video! Do you work with unpierced ear findings at all? Do you have any recommendations for types (invisible, clasp, screw, etc).
im really happy to see this chain video, , they are all so pretty. im wondering how do you test for strength?. ive bought necklaces where after wearing a few times the links break apart on some chains, the metal is very soft. do you ever check for how strong the chain is?
Yeah, what is UP with not being able to find normal-copper-colored ANYTHING! I can't even find spacer beads!
Thank you so much for doing this! I have been looking for affordable chain for months and haven't actually purchased any, because I don't trust it not to change color or turn my neck green. I'd feel terrible sending a customer home with that! I've had pretty good luck with PH for other items and was considering giving it a go. Feeling a little better about it now. And you're right about bright copper chain, it's very hard to find.
Are you having any luck with lobster claws? Lately I can't seem to find any that function reliably! Ugh!
I have always been leery of the silver plated stuff anyway .I dont see how you keep the spools as to what you have0 I woulda stuffed them back in the Bags LOL and put the Bar codes on the end of spools or on the Bags .
Do you have any updates on your opinion of the chains yet? Can you post a copy of your order numbers?
Although stainless steel does contain nickel, I am not sure if it is possible for the nickel to react with the body in the same way as nickel plating does. I have never heard of stainless steel causing allergic reactions. I would be very interested to know more about this if anyone can point me in the direction of scientific literature I would be grateful. I am less interested in heresay however.
FYI different types of stainless steel contain different qualities of nickel. Eg 304 contains between 8% to 10.5% nickel and 316 contains between 10% to 14% nickel according to the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI).
Thank you.
I think you are right that the nickel in stainless steel doesn't cause the same issues for folks as nickel plated, though I have no references beyond my own experience.
@@backtoearthcreations Ok. Thanks. 👍
Just wondering about the 6 spool set you pulled out first. All I can find of arricraft 6 spool cable chain mixed colors is $22 and change. Any way to confirm if I've found the right listing? That's quite a jump in price from 8 months ago.
@backtoearthcreations how did u find that first 6 pack?
Hi. I love your videos. Thank you. Do you have a source for hypoallergenic chain other than China?
Hi has anyone been able to find these chains on Pandahall? Please
Hi y’all. I went on pandahall to look at chain arricraft 6 color and couldn’t find it. Is it wholesale? Thanks. Could someone post link
