Yes its too long. Except u want somtin very big. Check my first pix

K so for a necklace it. Shuldnt b long? No vex say I dey ask @ onose

stainless76: Madam onose1,, am so pleased wt dis great teaching of urs (tubular)..pls i dnt seem to get step 8 where u siad we shld put d line in d bead on ourside and d next one in d one facing up,,am getting too confused though i got d rest but dat aspect is making my work to be un perfect ..pls can u help me to shed more light on dis. God will bless u ma

If u are almost completing all steps, u will get to place where u need just one bead to complete it. At dis point u will pass ur line R into 2 beads not one. The first bead is facing ur line while other is facing up. After passing d line thru both beads, cross both lines with just a bead. That ends dat circle. Start again to keep increasing ur tube.
Hope dis helps u and others who may hv similar problem.

ucheody: K so for a necklace it. Shuldnt b long? No vex say I dey ask @ onose

For dat size of beads, its too long. It will gv u a big tube when u join it to form a circular shape.
For me, having 4 beads at d middle is ok. Urs is up to 8 or nine.

Ok I tink say na d tube b dat! Ill try again tomorrow

Good Morning everyone

I dont like being a bother, so was just going to "pass" on this latest project, becasuse as a very new beader (Started 2 weeks ago) dont have the knowledge or experience to get the necklace started.

However I dont like things getting the better of me and I have decided to go for it and even if I dont get it 100% right, I know that I have tried and I can practise on it till I master it.

So Ladies, even if its a student who knows how to start, please can you put me through step by step in simpe Englsh (not bead talk lol) on how to get this design that we are currently working on started from scratch please.

I will really appreciate that

Thank you all and God bless.

. . .and to those teaching, encouraging, supporting, etc . . .Please dont give up and dont get frustrated or discouraged.
You are sowing a seed and you will reap it. Everything we do, God sees. Today many of us are enjoying the fruit that our parents sowed and so we too need to lay down a legacy for our own kids.

And to the rest of us "learners" please lets be appreciative and also considerate of other peoples other commitments and lives.

May God bless us all. Wishing us all a blessed and fruitful day.

Yes I am. Ohhhhhhhhh goshhhh no one is even telling me wot tools to get. Rather am getting a question. The beads lady I will vex now fr u ooo. Dnt let me give u E- heading o . So pls am begging biko. Wot tools shud I get. GoodM evryone

I am a new starter too, but the tools I got are as follwows.

Flat nose pliers
round nose pliers
Crimping pliers
beading needles
fireline
wire cutter
bent nose pliers (I havent used this one yet)
scissors
Beads - I bought seed beads, round pearl beads, bicones and tube beads
I also bought elastic thread. (I use these for very simple stringed bracelets)
I also bought findings i.e clasps, bead spacers, crimps, earing tubes etc
Tweezers
A pair of scissors
Glue
Beading Tray - where I lay out my design first and check the lenght before I string it.
I also bought little pots to put my beads and a larger box to place everything in, so my stuff are not all over the place


I am self taught. Mostly from here and you tube and I have made a few nice pieces that I can wear to work, church and I have just made one that I am wearing to a wedding next week.

I am not confident enough yet to sell them, but I am sure that the more I make, the more confident and better that I will become. For now its just a hobby

If anyone wants to add to my list please feel free to do so.

Thanks so much onose01,,its cleared now..am so grateful ...

Either one could also be bead crochet... the stringing of the beads at the start will determine the pattern.

The one she taught is in circular form. This one looks to be flat form. I guess to start you wouldn't join to form a circle. But onose01 will be able to explain better.
