💜 if you have small hand drill you can make the plastic or silicone beads that almost fit big enough to fit. I have some of the pens and had same issue. Took my Dremel and even made a plastic figure a bead. The nice thing about them is you can make them and if you don't like it or get tired of the colors and change them easily.
I tried to make the holes bigger on beads the other day, unfortunately it had a coating on it that started flaking off from trying to make the hole larger. I wasn't happy about that at all. At the moment I have no flipping idea where my hand/manuel drill is. I tried using the Dremel but beads are slippery and I was terrified I was going to drill my fingers. Especially since I had to hold them because of course I don't currently know where my little vise is either. There's ALWAYS issues I say! Always!!!! My husband has been laying down a lot for the last week or so, more in the last 4 days. He's pretty much been staying in bed except to get up to eat. It's not been good. Anyway with him laying down I don't want to disturb him by going in there digging through my craft/creating stuff. Since they put him back on steroids I am praying he starts feeling better again soon. He had been up moving around more, he was steady on his feet, he was doing really good. They stopped them and within days he was back to having major issues with being dizzy and with balance to the point of almost falling several times. Anyway thank you so very much for watching and commenting. You know I absolutely appreciate it and thanks so much for the 💜!!! Love ya Lady.
💜 What a shame… it was easy to see how disappointed you are! And I totally agree with you that there shouldn’t be a big gap left on the pens. Don’t give up… you’ll get there! 🤗 🤗 My thoughts and warm wishes are with you and your husband. 🩵🩷 Much love from Nat. (Brisbane, Australia) ♥️♥️🇦🇺
HEY hon 👋 I'm so glad you told me where you're from! I absolutely was disappointed I thought this was going to be a quick, fun project but no, of course it wasn't! It's all good, I will get things situated, it might not be exactly how or what I want but as long as I can get things done it will be just fine! Look at me not raining on my own parade! LoL. Thank you so much for watching until the end, that really does make me so happy and actually makes me feel like folks really are interested in my content and ME! So thank you. I do appreciate you leaving the 💜 as well. My husband is doing as well as he can be with terminal cancer, he's actually done remarkable well considering how much damage it has done to him, along with the treatments. It's a horrible, horrible disease no one should ever have to endure. I appreciate all good thoughts and vibes, much appreciated, thank you. Again I want to say I appreciate the support, knowing some are watching the whole video and thank you so much for the 💜!!! You are what helps make YT fun! Thank you!!!
I was just so disappointed with not having what I needed to make these pens. It just seems like sometimes nothing goes well. Like on the way home from my husband getting fluids and a steroid infusion a radiator hose busted and we just barely made it into the yard before the vehicle completely ran hot. I absolutely appreciate the prayers we absolutely need them. Thanks so much for the encouragement, for watching, for commenting and for following my request! 💜🥰
Hope you and your husband are doing fine,Ma'am 💜💐. The beadable pen look exciting, but sad that beads adjustments couldn't be proper so that no space was left in between. Hope you find the right beads soon and able to make them, Ma'am 💜💜 .Even the keychain stick was pretty thick,but you found lovely beads to fit in it💜 Sending prayers for your husband, hope he recovers soon 🙏
Hello Sudha, thank you again for watching, commenting, and always watching the full video as always you ARE ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! I need to find some spacer beads in different sizes, shapes, designs, and silver because I believe almost all the spacer beads I have are in golden tones. Those will not work on silver hardware, at least not for me anyway. I really thought this project would be quick and go smoothly but if course not because why would it? I'm surprised the stem on the beadable keychain is slightly bigger than the stem on the pens. I also need more beads not only with larger holes but in different colors and styles but that going to take some time to get because beads are costly! I'm doing better than I was but I'm still not great after the surgery, it's aggravated the fibromyalgia issues. As for my husband he is doing as well as he can be with terminal cancer. He is amazingly holding his own. Thanks again Ms Sudha, you are AWESOME 💜
@@GailBynum-u7y Thank you for the compliment, I do need to find some spacer beads to fit on the pens. Unfortunately my husband passed away in July. I haven't been functioning well since then. Thank you for the doing well sentiment. I do appreciate it. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I appreciate that as well.
Hey lil' sis 😊 I had a small nap, got up, watched your video, and now commenting 😁 💜💜💜 I'm sorry those beads didn't have the proper sized holes for the pens and keychains, and I know know you have a rotary tool, as well as long pointed skinny files (I think 🤔), but I also know you can't use them if you can't get to them! I'm also sorry that I've not managed to get you more size and color varieties, unfortunately color varieties takes time to find and buy, but worse yet is not being able to know the inside diameter of the beads because that isn't ever included in the description 😢 Anyway, still a good video 😁 ❤️🫂😴
Girl! I DO have a Dremel but the tiny bit I need doesn't sit proper in it so it wiggles and I'm afraid I'm going to drill my fingers or at least eat them up because it slipped. I couldn't figure out a safe way to hold the bead for drilling even if the bit had been stable. The beads I wanted to use were the beads from the container I got for my birthday at Hobby Lobby, I can't believe the holes in those are different sizes! That one really threw me off! I also didn't realize how much variety was going to be needed to make beaded pens and keychains. I was hoping the small sized beads I had would work but oh well, things happen! I am not expecting you to supply my habits 😆, I do of course appreciate everything you have done and continue to do but I also have to figure out how to make this work as well if the beadable pens and keychains are what I want to focus on. For now I suppose I need to do some keychains with other things to get started and that's okay too. Anyway, talk later, hope you eventually got more sleep. ❤️🫂💜
Yeah I know they have reamers to open holes but alas I do not own any of them. I did try to make the holes bigger on a different project before this video. BUT that video can't go up until the pieces I made in that video arrive at the recipient's home, in that video I'm pretty sure I mentioned trying to use my Dremel to make the hole bigger but it didn't work out to well. Thank you so much for the watch, and comment, and for suggesting bead reamers! 🥰

I hope you and your husband are doing well. Your pens are beautiful. A smaller spacer may help to fill in the gaps.

There's actually a bead file that opens bead holes bigger. But that kind of a pain in the butt. Take care and prayers 🙏.

Oh heck how frustrating for you.
It was/is! It will work out somehow though. Thank you I appreciate it ☺️
