After watching several videos on how to string pearls was becoming frustrated because they were "to fast" not really explaining the process. Your video was very refreshing! You explained your process very well and didn't rush through the steps! Really loved the way you ended your piece, the hanging pearl just gave the necklace that little extra something special making it stand out a bit more! Thanks for taking the time to make and share this video, I found it to be very helpful! Look forward to seeing other videos on jewelry making from you! Hello to Charlie, he IS a good boy! LOL
Me a newbie here and thank you so much for showing me how to use the French wire. You make it so simple like in Layman's terms. Thank you. You ROCK! Debs from Texas
Thanks Sammi for the clear demo on stringing and clasping for a pearl necklace. From your experience which is the best thread to use for string pearls.
janice wong thank you! Even though I filmed an intro and totally failed to edit it in ;) Please let me know if there is anything you'd like to see demo'd!
Thank you for the tutorial! What size french wire has a large enough hole for the silk and that will still be able to go back through the bead twice? Seems it comes in sizes between 16g-26g...
Thank u so much l learned a lot with you my necklace will be strong this time but pliz on the chain did u put the jump ring or it's just a chain only l was not hearing properly that side
Technically you could bead without the, but it’s not advisable really - for pearls. The knots add strength, they also protect each pearl from rubbing against the pearl next to it - but mainly if the necklace should ever snap, you won’t lose all your pearls, as the knots will stop all the others from falling off :)
Hi there! I am using clear high tack fabric glue, ideally choose something that is washable and forms a permanent bond. While it is bad to get pearls wet - accidents happen, people also perspire :)
Joseph Jackman so sorry!! It’s an autofocus lens, I’m quite new to this and it’s v frustrating for me too! When I get chance to do another I will practise practise practise. Perhaps shooting shorter segments to check each time - splicing together? I can’t watch my hands and the screen at the same time - so I need to find some work arounds! :)

I’ve never seen the decorative bead, but I like it. Definitely going to use that!
I use the Knot A Bead, it prevents hand fatigue for me!
fab thanks Sammi x
Liz F you're more than welcome xxx
Thank u so much l learned a lot with you my necklace will be strong this time but pliz on the chain did u put the jump ring or it's just a chain only l was not hearing properly that side
Very clear, if a little long-winded.
thanks you in a million for sharing. Please tel me what is the name of that flexible wire you used and were to find it.
French wire
Can u do a tutorial of how to bead pearls using a soft touch beading wire :)
Do they make waterproof wire guards too by any chance?
Can I use the polish nail, please?
I do use a needle to press the knot closer to the pearl, it does help.
What size and brand needle should I look for. I’m in USA
would be easier to see if the bead was white. Really hard to see this
Great tutorial! I was wondering whether the knots between each pearl are for design or function? Can I just bead them without knotting inbetween?
Technically you could bead without the, but it’s not advisable really - for pearls. The knots add strength, they also protect each pearl from rubbing against the pearl next to it - but mainly if the necklace should ever snap, you won’t lose all your pearls, as the knots will stop all the others from falling off :)
Sammi Fletcher Makes sense, thank you!:)
What tool is that??? Where do I buy one???
Miss seeing you2 on jewellery maker Sammy hope you ok
What kind of glue are you using?

Pearl : B +
I have no nails. . . .🥴
Nice tutorial, however, I wish you would focus the camera properly! Frustrating!
