I cam Across your video and i am learning how to do mala. It would be helpful if you would count in English so we know how many beads , since this an English tutorial. Thanks ❤
My apologies! I am German and I wasn't aware that the counting was crucial for you. A traditional mala has 108 beads plus the spacers and the guru bead (if used). The tradition I am following here is using a spacer after every 27 beads. That makes three spacers in between the 108 beads plus the guru bead. I hope this helps. 🙏💙
Yes, the plastic bead design boards seem to gather all sorts of yucky stuff that is hard to clean. I love those wooden boards that you're showing. That's such a cool design tool with the bead holes as well. Thank you for sharing your craftacular tips and technique in making your mala.
Thank you for the video and all the work you put into making it. Your instructions are very clear and helpful. It was also relaxing to watch. I appreciate it all very much. I have to add that I love your beautiful mala boards and accessories. If you ever have a chance to read the comment, I'd like to ask about the tassel. Griffin's silk thread on spool has been discontinued. I was wondering if you perhaps have any recommendations to what could be used instead to create similarly beautiful and polished effect? I was also wondering what would work as a high quality vegan substitute of silk.
Thank You for the video! If possible could you please share how to make and attach sari tassel? What fabric to use for sari tassel and how attach it? Thank You! 🙏
Thank you so much! unfortunately I am not able to create videos at the moment, but making a sari silk tassel is the same way as making the regular one. Prior I would cut the silk strips to the double of the intended length and then fix them in the middle with the ends of your mala string the same way I show it in the video. Then just wrap around as you like it, to create the hassle shape. I would make it longer than a regular tassel though, because the fabric is more bulky and needs a bit of length to look beautiful and not awkward. I hope this helps a bit 😊💙🙏
I love your Mala-making process and the setup you have here is so calming which completely fits the vibe of a mala. Nice malaboards!! Thank you for sharing your process and amazing class! I will share this video to my beading group as well as pop this video into a playlist to share here. Have a beadiful day!
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and loving my boards and class! It's my first one and it was definitely a challenge, but also lots of fun to create! 🥰🌸🙏
I am SO HAPPY to see you start a channel, Claudia! I am loving all of my bead design boards! I'm enjoying showing them in my various videos and social media posts because they are specially made, beautiful quality and you were able to put my little logo on them. So, I think that is a wonderful investment for my jewelry-making business and it also lends a calming quality to my design process because of the natural wood board. Congratulations on your RUclips journey! Sparkle on and Merry Christmas! 🤶🎄✨
Thank you sooo much for all your support Monica! I am so happy to hear that you love your boards and I enjoy your sparkling videos! Lots of love and Merry Christmas to you too! 🙏🌟🎄
Thank you so much! The silk is from a company called Griffin. You can google them to find suppliers or buy in bulk via their website at www.griffin.shop/usd 🙏💙
hello my name is nona 🤗 im enjoing listerning to way you explan and sharing what you enjoy wiyh us xx the boards you have are absalutley awsum and the decor behind you holding ur other mala necklaces are stunning as i can see great xmas gifts etc to give my kids and moko's ❤ if you dont mind, id like to share with you a little thing i do when playing around with bead threading - lay ur beads in ther patern, when threading ,place ur finger down on top of bead ,roll it arond until u see the hole, poke ur thread thru and roll up ur next bead with ur finger find the hole and repeat Not lifting each bead 1 @ a time 2 thread, leav everything on your work bench , watching u picking up each bead is KilliNg my thumbs 😆🙃 take care of urself out ther atm u have 131 thumbs up, i don t want to break that number lol so bigg loves tu meke xx
@@derblauevogel1 hi ther Claudia your very welcomed , I see you have met drunk Nona ,by the look of your reply, I guess she was making sense lol our local river flooded & a whole tree now lays Riverside , ther is a section perfect to make necklace stand/tower, like the stands behind u in your video, I can raltar a groove on the back to make other mala necklaces and bracelets, and gift them to the kids , they need all the mediation influence possible Ka kete Anu
U should not use pointing finger to touch the beed in traditional chanting ... u can check more traditional instituation lije isha foundation or ramkrishna mission for authentic steps by step how to include mala in ur daily spritual practice....apart from that it is a good content...
I believe this generally depends on the tradition you learned from your teacher. I my case I learned from an Anahata Yogi, who was trained in India for over 50 years and he taught me to use the ring finger and middle finger, as these are representing "earth and sky" (Phritivi and Akasha). Thank you for being conscious about it though and providing sources for further learning. 🙏

your creations are beautiful. Can you give me a site where I can buy the silk thread for the tassel? Thank you
Thank you so much! The silk is from a company called Griffin. You can google them to find suppliers or buy in bulk via their website at www.griffin.shop/usd 🙏💙
@@derblauevogel1 What diameter of thread to make the tassel do you buy?
@@leilamazzocco4294 This is a question of taste. I prefer a thinner silky tassel, that is soft and fluent, so I mostly use Griffin silk with 0,38 mm.
Wow this is so special what u created, can we buy these tools?
Thank you so much! Yes, you can buy the boards and some ready sets on my site > www.derblauevogel.com (see more links in the video description) 🙏💙
Do u also make rosaries?
I personally don't make them, but there is also a special rosary beading board available 🙏😊
