I have been doing these pendants almost identical to yours for about five years now. But I never made my own bail. And let me tell you I could never give a tutorial as well as you do. I did do one tutorial in my life and you are so good at it. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent.
Aleshia your tutorials are so thoughtful and well put together. I like how you anticipate potential trouble during the project, tell where you buy the products and their cost, list alternatives, show the project made using alternatives, and the other subtleties that make your tutorials the best on TH-cam. When I watch one of your videos, I feel completely confident I can complete the project, I don't need to do extra research or watch someone else's video. Thanks for all the stellar videos!
Hope your doing great! ❤ 😊Sharon in Ohio loves your Marbel bracelets! I hit and miss the metal piece we twist but 9v× out of 10 still works out! I'm 70 years old and your items you made and you taught me how to make ! Is a joy to retirement; ty❤
I really love how thoroughly you explain everything. You are an excellent teacher. You even give great advice on prices and where to find things. It's great that you provide alternatives in case someone does not have something. Thank you so much for sharing!
Lovely job on this tutorial :) A little tip I have used when making these pendants. If the edges of the paper are a bit jagged after you have cut around the dried glue step..you can smooth them used one of those grey or blue foam blocks for sanding acrylic nails. They usually have a few different grits of sandpaper on them and are squishy so they make nice rounded edges. You can find them at beauty supply stores. Also, these make a fun set of fridge magnets if you glue on a button magnet.
You can use black acrylic paint on the back of your beads. It will help keep the image from the back from showing through. It also gives your image(s) more depth and an overall clean look :) Hope you try it!
Girl you rock!!! Who would have ever thought? I love these types of pendants but due to respiratory problems I could not work with resin, thank God for you Alisha. Feel better quickly.
Your wire bail idea is simply brilliant! Thanks so much for sharing it, and you did a great job demonstrating and explaining how to make it. One thing I found helpful if an image wanted to show through from the other side was to glue a piece of BLACK paper to the back -- no more show-through. The black paper often seemed to intensify to colors of the image on the front, plus it made the back of the piece look more "finished." You don't need a heavy-duty glue, just use Elmer's white glue for the black paper. Once that dries, you can attach the bail with E-6000, then the Diamond Glaze or clear fingernail polish. I'd love to see the necklace you made with the paper beads and glass pendant. Consider adding a link, please.
I’m years late seeing this fabulous tutorial! Your camera angle is perfectly set. Huge plus!! Excellent directions! Such a cool idea....why didn’t I think of that! Ha😉 Really enjoyable~
You are so very talented. This is so inspirational. I also love very much how concisely you speak and that you do not go off on unprofessional conversation tangents like some youtubers. I appreciate that so much because of my time problems. I enjoy listening to you speak. Thank you so much.
Hey Aleshia, thank you for sharing your Bezel Design. I am learning to wire & bead work to enhance my New Generation Crystal Jewelry Line. I have followed your channel for a long time but never attempted to bead weave, however I love to wire beads of all types and sizes. Thank you for generosity to teach and make tutorials.
What an excellent tutorial ! I've watched countless craft, hobbie & DIY tutorials over the years. & your creative savvy, style & passion are quite obvious. I can't aptly describe it but you have a 'genuineness' that comes through which I find deeply refreshing. You were obviously unwell so again, hats off to your dedication. & commitment to your business and/or personal ideals. Cheers on a job well done. Deb (New Zealand)
Super pretty! I love the pendant, the artful bale, and the decorative paper beads and cords you use to make it into a beautiful necklace. Gonna try it myself with many of the glass bead images ive made in the past. Thank you!
I have watched a few tutorials now on making glass marble necklaces and yours, by far, stands out because of the extensive teaching on making the bail. I love that you are helping us save more money with this technique. Thank you for posting.
You are an excellent teacher and probably the best with details of anyone I've watched. I have just discovered you but I'm hopeful that you have many lessons on here. I look forward to watching all of them. Thank you for taking your time and ability and sharing with us. Nikki
Sealing the paper with a Mod Podge formula first can make any paper usable & glossy, matte, or my favorite, glittery. This can really make the image stand out & you might not need to use the Diamond Glaze, which as you said, can be hard to find. Neat idea!
finishing the back, you can use polymer clay, sandwiching the bail between the two and getting rid of the printing on the back. Or, moisten the back and using your finger, remove the excess paper, leaving the image on the glass; then add the pretty bail you've made. (an old trick from Mod Podge and placing an image onto other materials).
Thank-you very much, I am currently doing Kumihimo Braiding and with use of beads to do this I have not been able to find any bails locally that I could use. The ones on line are so expensive. So by watching this you have saved my life. Or I think so now I have to make some. I will send you a picture or two once they are done. Thanks again from Vancouver Canada
Very nice. I made pendants like these about a year ago and gave them away as gifts. I guess I should make some more. Thank you for showing us how you make the bails. Love your idea with the paper beads. Great tutorial:)
Oh my goodness, you are so patient and descriptive and interesting. You did a great job in spite of being sick. Of course, I am posting my comment 4 years after you posted this video. However, I wanted to let you know how much you are appreciated. And you have over 434K views!
I 've made these for year yours are very nice but save time cutting out your paper with a circle paper cutter. There's one the same diameter as the large glass stone. Another tip! On the back add a nice piece of material or I prefer a black "pleather" type of material. This gives it a more professional finished piece.
you can "sandwich" the bail between the pendant and any backing material you choose. Black velour paper would work well, or do as Linnea suggests below! Pretty much anything goes - you can choose what you want on the back.
Really well done video. You are precise and your pendants are super professional looking. And thanks so much for showing us how to make those lovely bails.
Hi! I really wanted to say thank you for ALL of your videos! Your pieces are so beautiful & your videos are so detailed, that don't leave your viewer with any questions & that's awesome! You've got my undying gratitude & support!!! I hope that you'll post a video on those great paper beads, please?!?
Your tutorial is really great. Thank you. I want to do this but finish off the back so as to look more professional. Its the way you made the bail that was so interesting. Thanks for that tip because like you say, they can be expensive and there are not many in a package. Also, I have been looking for what type of marbles to use for certain things and you had the answer!! Thanks again!
I enjoyed this immensely You have a great way of presenting to your viewers You are slow enough to catch what you are saying and describing You point out each step to give a person time to understand it I think you are fantastic and I will be trying to make these Thank you so much for sharing Keep up the good work
I made some presents this year with these glass beads and magnets. I used fabric, wrapping paper, pictures etc. for mine. Thanks for the idea to make them wearable jewelry!!!
I agree with you, Aleshia, glossy papers do work better. I made a bunch of these glass marbles into Christmas decorations one year, and finished them by glueing them onto coloured felt and adding a ribbon to hang the decorations with. They turned out very nicely! Never thought of making jewelry with them though. Your idea is very beautiful! ~Janet in Canada
I've seen other tutorials on the exact same thing but your bails are not only functional but quite lovely as well. Also, LOVE your manicure! Weird, I know, but anyone who knows me knows I have a thing for great nails. Anyway, I look forward to your other tutorials.
You have some wonderful ideas Aleshia! I love all of your tutorials, the things you make are inexpensive and beautiful at the same time. Thanks for sharing!
This looks like a really fun project as they can be made so very personal with pictures or whatever. Thanks Alescia for such great tutorials and sharing your ideas !!!
Great tutorial - you were very thorough. I really appreciated the pointers you gave against pitfalls - that will be very helpful. So now I want to see your other videos.
I've never seen bails like this before...you're very talented. I bought the flat-back glass marble ages ago and made a few rings with them using nail polish on the back. I never thought of doing a pendant, I'm going to start right now as I'm lucky enough to have all the materials here! Keep up the great work!:)
YES! a tutorial on making your own bails! they're so expensive online and i can't find them in any stores :( this will help SO much. now all i need is thicker wire. THANK YOU!!
Great tutorial! I have been intimidated to learn wire wrapping and you made me feel like I could totally do this. Thanks for the generosity of your time to offer inspiration and teaching :)
Fabulous video.Very easy to follow.How clever you are to come up with such a great idea for making your own wire bales.You keep it simple and inexpensive yet come out with beautiful pieces.Well done
Thank you so much for showing how to craft a bale (sp?). The entire tutorial was enjoyable & informative. Definitely am going to watch more. I encourage every craftperson to subscribe!
Loved your tutorial ... and your designs ... just starting out with jewellery making I am going to love trying new things ..and I will definitely have a go at making one of these pendants ...Thank you for sharing your knowledge x
I have made all kind of things with these marbles and let me give you a tip. I glue the image with white glue which dries clear and apply it also to the back. Once it is dry, I use a nail polish color that matches the color of the image or just use black nail polish to seal it. I have attahed self adhesive magnets to put them on my refrigerator. This process is much faster and less expensive than using the E-6000. I got the idea from a decoupage video and has worked very good for me. I hope you try my method. Great job on the bails. Kind regards.
You are AMAZING! This is the 2nd tutorial I've watched tonite and again, the possibilities are endless!The bail alone is the best ever and who doesn't have those glass marbles and wondered how to do this and make it look nice?
Thank you so much for this very detailed and helpful tutorial. You have the best eye for finding pretty images in magazines and making gorgeous beads! I'll post you a picture of mine when I get the bails done!
I do this type work, but I use magazines like women's clothing, for my pictures. I use clear nail polish for the glue and then add magnets on the backs. Love your channel by the way!
Thank you for showing us how to make the bails!!! They are so expensive I couldn't believe it. So thank you so much for showing us a cheap way of creating them :D
Terrific tutorial-thank you for this! I'm new to your channel & really appreciate your thoughtful step-by-step demo. I followed along with wire & tools in hand, and managed to make a bale with no troubles! Also, I appreciate your clean non-distracting background.
I've been making my own bails, but I really like your design! Mine use a heavier gauge and fewer details, but I can see that yours would work better on heavier pendants. Thanks!
You are so creative, I never would have thought to use these, at first I thought this was resine. I am so going to do this technique for my drawings to make neclaces out of them! Thank you!
Loved this. What a great way to personalize your own pendants to match your clothing and what a great gift this would be. Also this would be so great for little girls to make for their moms. Thank you for sharing!!!!
Hi Aleshia, great tutorial and so easy to follow. I new about the bead and picture thing but was sure glad to see how you made the bails. Simple and easy to do! Thanks so much.
love your videos and the fact you taught me how to make the bails being on low income I can't afford to buy the expensive ones only to get a few in each package. thanks so much for sharing this even though you were sick hope you get better God Bless you
I really love this idea! I made one over the weekend, and I wrote my grandchildrens name on the paper before I glued. It is beautiful! Thank you for putting this tutorial on here, keep them coming!!
Thank you so much for putting this out for the world to see. I love making jewelry but I hate being at the mercy of the expensive companies that sell pendants. I love doing crafts and this is really going to help me. Also do a tutorial on how to make paper beads, so curious.
I love the bail! Just found you today & am subscribing - I've been buying glue on bails for these and they can get expensive. Thank you for sharing your talents..
Wonderful video! You are very explicit, and I have been wanting to know how to make these pendants forever. Thank you so much for posting this how to video. I appreciate your effort and love the finished product. Keep up the good work! You are so creative.
A great tutorial and beautiful glass beads. Luv the idea of using magazines and other printed material for the backgrounds. Also loved the bail designs. Thanks.
I've taken you're idea and run with it! I made dozens of these and there's no stopping me! I'm going to use acrylic paint to cover the back of the images. I have a few store bought bails (bales?) But will use craft wire to finish the rest. I'll have birthdays and Christmas done!
I completely love them. They are beautiful. I learned how to make these in a very easier way than the way i was doing them. Thanks a lot for sharing. 😊
Terrific. How oppurtune for you to put this video out. I just finished a beaded nech chain with a daisy garden theme and needed something to hang in the centre. I was waiting for lightning to strike to find something and here you are. I love this tut. Thanks.
I know I'm late to this party but am new to crafting (2018) I just recently saw these in one of my craft fb groups & fell in love. This is a very good & thorough tutorial. Love your bails! Thank you :)
Aleshia, Thankyou for a very simple Explanation on how to do these pendants ! Your instructions were easy to understand . I hope you are feeling better and hope to see you make more Videos in the Future. R..T. in .Fla. Aug.29th 2022 🤗thanks again💕📿💍
I have never done wire working, but your video makes it look pretty simple. I am now very excited to try!! I already have some clear marble like things at home, so I will have to try making my own pendants as well. Thanks for the awesome video!!
Thank you so much for showing how the make the holders for the project. I have made so many from dollar store items and needed a way to put them together. Great idea. Thanks
I have been doing these pendants almost identical to yours for about five years now. But I never made my own bail. And let me tell you I could never give a tutorial as well as you do. I did do one tutorial in my life and you are so good at it. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent.

extremely creative and money smart! i decorate marbles all the time now. the bail ideas just opened up a million more ideas thank you!!!

what is the name of the wire ?

Great tutorial. This is the first video I watched that actually made me understand how to make a wire bale correctly. .. thank you so much.
You've got a real talent for demonstrating and explaining crafts. Many thanks for this excellent video.
I love the way you made the bails. I have made a lot and have made many pendants with the bails. Your teaching is great. Thank you.
Very nice. I made pendants like these about a year ago and gave them away as gifts. I guess I should make some more. Thank you for showing us how you make the bails. Love your idea with the paper beads. Great tutorial:)

You actually make it look do-able. I love your step by step tutorial and also how you tell us what not to do. Keep up the good work.
First thing I thought was how nice were these bails, awesome to hear you made them yourself.
I 've made these for year yours are very nice but save time cutting out your paper with a circle paper cutter. There's one the same diameter as the large glass stone. Another tip! On the back add a nice piece of material or I prefer a black "pleather" type of material. This gives it a more professional finished piece.
Wow I was thinking the same thing KJ Starr...great tip.
KJ Starr but some of the glass globs are not perfect circles.
KJ Starr, would the black material be attached to the paper with E6000 and then the bail or bale would be attached to the black material with E6000?
Just paint the back with nail polish, color of choice, let dry. apply second coat, let dry, install bail.
you can "sandwich" the bail between the pendant and any backing material you choose. Black velour paper would work well, or do as Linnea suggests below! Pretty much anything goes - you can choose what you want on the back.
Excellent job of showing and explaining! My preteen grandchild is coming to visit and I think they will love this craft!
You never stop even when sick. You still do great work. The pendants are beautiful. Thank you.
Really well done video. You are precise and your pendants are super professional looking. And thanks so much for showing us how to make those lovely bails.

absolutely STUNNING!!!!! The Best LOOKING Diy BAILS i have ever seen!!!!

Very nicely done. I also love your paper beads. Did you do a tutorial on making those?
I like the way you figured out your own way of making the bail! Nice job!
I've taken you're idea and run with it! I made dozens of these and there's no stopping me! I'm going to use acrylic paint to cover the back of the images. I have a few store bought bails (bales?) But will use craft wire to finish the rest. I'll have birthdays and Christmas done!
I completely love them. They are beautiful. I learned how to make these in a very easier way than the way i was doing them. Thanks a lot for sharing. 😊
Terrific. How oppurtune for you to put this video out. I just finished a beaded nech chain with a daisy garden theme and needed something to hang in the centre. I was waiting for lightning to strike to find something and here you are. I love this tut. Thanks.
Gosh, good job! Who knew!!!?? I love your tutorial and how you took us right through the whole process with helpful hints!! Bravo!!
I know I'm late to this party but am new to crafting (2018) I just recently saw these in one of my craft fb groups & fell in love. This is a very good & thorough tutorial. Love your bails! Thank you :)
This is a great tutorial! Thank you for making it :) I never thought to use the wire for making my own bails!
Aleshia, Thankyou for a very simple Explanation on how to do these pendants ! Your instructions were easy to understand . I hope you are feeling better and hope to see you make more
Videos in the Future. R..T. in .Fla. Aug.29th 2022 🤗thanks again💕📿💍
I have never done wire working, but your video makes it look pretty simple. I am now very excited to try!! I already have some clear marble like things at home, so I will have to try making my own pendants as well. Thanks for the awesome video!!
You do an excellent job! I love your bails better than the store bought ones! So decorative.
You explain the process very well ! Your work is very delicate and beautiful
Hope you feel better soon! Thanks for sharing. It looks like a fun project with lots of possibilities. Yours look lovely.
Thank you so much for showing how the make the holders for the project. I have made so many from dollar store items and needed a way to put them together. Great idea. Thanks
That’s brilliant. Thank you so much. May God bless you for all you do in sharing your knowledge with us.🙏🏽
