This bracelet is made with Gem stone chips. I had a bunch of chips I bought a while back and decided to design something to use them in. It is a pretty simple project, just takes time. I want to apologize for the small distortion at the start of the video. I promise I will get new equipment soon to address that problem. It only last a few seconds but is annoying.
Materials:
A Strand of gem stone chips/ or a mix of chips
6/0 seed beads in one or up to three colors
11/0 seed beads
2 wire protectors
a toggle clasp
8lb Fireline
size 10 or smaller beading needle
This was the first beading tutorial I had ever seen, I was a kid in middle school when this video was posted, and I was mesmerized watching this. I am all grown up and I can proudly say that I am now a beader, and I'll be making this bracelet soon!!! Thank you for these beautiful and memorable creations Gina, I hope that you are doing well madame!! ❤
You are BRILLIANT, Gina! I have dozens of strands of gemstone chips .. now I know what to do with them!! I found that you can use the larger chips by putting an extra 11/0 or 15/0 seed bead between them : ) I especially like it with the gemstone chips (with the seed beads) stitched down the thread bridge on top so they're on three sides.
Thanks so much, Gina ♥♡♥♡♥
This is a gorgeous bracelet. So many possibilities with the design. Kinda freestyle but with a pattern. Love the tutorial and how thorough you are. Best wishes!
wow as a newbie took me a few times and I finally got herringbone part down. Thank you at 60 years old I am always so Jazzed to learn something new. Cant wait to see how the rest of this lil jewel finishes up. thank you Gina
Carol Crane I am happy you kept with it. sometimes it just takes a little patience. This bracelet takes a long time to make...stay with it, it turns out beautiful! Thanks for watching!
Perfect type of Bracelet to use any type of Bead stash you have. Love chunky Bracelets.
Indeed, it truly is versatile.
Gina, I am a new Beader, so this is defintely a challenge, but your tutorial is so spot-on, I'm up for the challenge! Thanks, you're an excellent Teacher!!
Thanks for the compliment! And yes, you can do it, I have no doubt!
Wow, this is amazing and so simpel ! Thank you for sharing ! What a beautiful color combo !
You are very welcome!
When I saw the bracelet I thought,this is going to be confusing for me but as usual you explain things so easy and the close ups are GREAT! Thank for sharing this beautiful bracelet.
Hi Connie, I have no doubt in my mind that you can do this very easily. Beading really isn't hard if you can see each step clearly. Have fun! And never feel as if you can't do the projects, I know you can!
Alisha over at Beadingful Night made a barrette with stone chips in this same color way. This bracelet and that barrette would make a beautiful set. I love how this is both casual and elegant.
Yes, that would be nice together👍♥️
GIna, I absolutely LOVE this design!!!!! I think we all have that huge stash of mixed stone chips that we are not sure what to do with :) I wished we could post pics on here to show you. I have done mine in a blue/green mix & it is turning out absolutely stunning!!! Very "summery" too. I will be making quite a few of these in different shades & mixes for my summer craft shows. Thanks again for the design & for a way to use up some chips :)
You are welcome, I am glad you found this one useful. I too had lots of chips, I used most of them making these bracelets. They are fun.
Love this bracelet Gina! Thanks so much for sharing your creations! I look forward to more!
I am happy you like it, it is a fun little thing! Thank you for watching and the nice comment?😀
I spent all day yesterday making this and ! Time well spent, thanks Gina
Your welcome! I am glad you like your new bracelet!
You have beautiful designs. You explain very well and detailed. 👍
Thank you, happy you enjoy the videos!
I love this bracelet and your step by step instructions make it easy to thank you
You're welcome! I am glad you like it!
That's right Gina,i have tons & tons of those Gem stone chips & i never use those but whit this Excellent tut. i will make this Beautiful Bracelet! Thank's for all the great tips they are very helpfull :-)
Your welcome Sylvie! I think a lot of us beaders have these chips. Once you start weaving and no longer string often, these just sit in your bead box. I am glad you like it!
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing ~ and teaching in such a clear, precise manner.
Thank you for the compliment! Have. Fun with it!
Been wanting to make one like this. I love Chunky Bracelets. So pretty. Will be using Red and Blue Cat eye beads and my birthstones which are Amethyst and Aquamarine. Looks easy enough. :)
Yes, it’s easy, takes some time, but it’s not hard😁
Thank you jumpinjacksflash! I appreciate the compliment!

No ma'am! I liked n I love all of your Tutorials! they are so beautiful
Prami, I am not sure about walk in stores. I live in a very small town. We haven't any bead stores here. Most are small businesses locally owned. It just depends where you go. You will have to ask local people or look it up on google or a telephone book. I am sorry, I am not much help with this question. I do all my shopping on line.
Gina's Gem Creations thank you ma'am ! you have been so helpful to me! I will search on google, thank you so much again
Very pretty.
Thank you💕
Thanks for sharing the video. Nice bracelet
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it. :)
Welcome
Благодарю Вас. Очень хороший урок.
Lovely
Thank you💕
Wowza
Thanks😁
I think it is very pretty!
Thank you Nerieda, I appreciate that!
Gina I love your videos and you explain things so well I love this step by step other videos I see they only show you once or twice and then say I'll be back how much thread did you use for this bracelet I have tons of chipped gemstones once again thank you so very much for your videos BB
I do that too, but I try to make sure each step is thoroughly demonstrated, I am happy they work for you. 😎
Oh yeah, I use 2 wing span lengths to start with, I add as I need more. I did this a long time ago so I do not remember how much exactly.
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Beautiful work! Great tutorial. I have a question. Can you extend a bracelet that has a tongle
No but you can put on a spring ring or lobster clap and add chain to the opposite side.
Gina, where do you find speckled seed beads? Please include brands to check out. I would love to make a bracelet like yours & the speckled beads are awesome!
They are Czech Terra Marble 6/o seed beads. I think I bought mine on eBay. I have had them for a while. But do a search, because I always buy from bigger sellers and I am sure you can find them still. They are pretty beads that's for sure.
I made one! Very nice!
Nereida, did you post it in chat? I would love to see it!
Yes I posted it in bead chat. I tried to tag you but it did not get your name ?
I will go look for it!
love it is so beautiful
+Hilda Lechner Thank you, Hilda!
Thanks, Gina, for a great tutorial. Can you tell me how much thread you started the project with. I know I can add more if needed, but just curious how much you used to start. Thanks!
Yes, I like to start all projects (except earrings) with two wingspans of thread. Pull the thread out, spread your arms out like bird wings while stretching the thread. That is a wing span. I don't always use two wingspans in the videos. Because it is a lot of thread to pull through, takes longer to film.
Beautifull and neet👍🏻
Thank you!
Sorry meant to say extend length of bracelet with toggle closure? Thanks
You can put chain on the straight end of the toggle to extend it but it won't be adjustable. You can use a lobster claw clasp and a chain to extend with instead of a toggle clasp
Working on the second for a gift!
Wonderful! I am glad you like this one so well! It will be a nice gift.
Beautiful
Thank you!
Hi Gina I made this one with fluoride chip Stone sent u a pic on fb thank you again
Don't know how I missed this comment 😕I believe I do remember the pretty bracelet though🌺
Very beautiful
+Naina Dome thank you!
love it
+Hilda Lechner Thanks Hilda!
beautiful
Thank you!💐
what is a "crystal stone beads? are they Gem Stone? I don't really know much about the beads,
They could be crystal quarts which are a gemstone.
oh ok, thank u
You said to secure it three times. Is that what you showed on the video, or did you not show how to do that?
I am assuming you are talking about the clasping, I usually go through it once then two more times off camera.
very beautiful
Thank you.
Hi Gina,, i ask you if it is possible also to make necklace?because it so really nice i like it!thanks for sharing this,,,😀😍
I am not sure that will work because of the flat, straight herringbone base. I do have a tutorial called Netted Rocks Necklace, you could use the same colors in it as you do in this one and make it match.
+Gina's Gem Creations thanks Gina I we be wait your nitted necklace,,😍😊
Its already uploaded, just search for it. It's on my channel.
that is sooooooooooo beautiful! ma'am, where do u get those beads from? do u know any wholesale store that i can find cheaper beads?
Prami, I am happy you like this one! There are several wholesale stores online but to buy wholesale you will need a tax ID number, usually. But for these particular beads I purchased all of them on Ebay a while ago. You can find gemstone chips very reasonably priced as well as the 6/o seed beads needed in this bracelet. You can also try Firemountain gems and Goodybeads. They are big online stores and are not too badly priced. I get a lot of questions about the beads I use and am contemplating putting together kits for my viewers. Until then, try an Ebay search. That will be the cheapest rout.
thank you ma'am! for the store information! are there any walk-in-beads store that I can go n have a look! m not really good at buying materials at all!
I leave in the Bahamas and I am planning to go in USA to buy the Materials, but I just like to have some ideas, and like to know, which state would be better to go to get the Beads!
красиво и просто.класс!!
Спасибо!
Spasibo!
ALSO I DO NOT UNDERSTAND AND translate WITH GOOGLE TRANSLATOR MY TEXT BUT DO NOT KNOW HOW TO PUT IT ON VIDEO TRANSLATED MI SPIACWE BUT THANKS DAVER ANSWERED

Hi Laura,
I am sorry you cannot view this with Italian captions. I do not speak Italian well enough to translate and caption. I need to find someone to help me translate these videos into Italian and Spanish.
B_utiful
Thanks
