I’ve been making jewelry for not even a year yet, but I learned SO MUCH from you in the beginning!! I’ve been selling my jewelry for months now and doing pretty well! Your videos are amazing for learning lots of essential techniques in a short amount of time! If I ever feel like I need to brush up on the basics, I just come watch your videos!

Can’t wait to watch the entire video!! Would you talk a little bit about your bead storage? Is that what’s in the jars behind you? Trying to figure out how I want to reorganize my supplies.
Hi Amy, I have discussed this with the Jewellery Box group last year so if you would like to watch that, you will need to join. Having said that, I'm working on another one that will be open to the public but it will be a while as I need to do some planning around that. You're not the only person asking. Thank you.
Hi Carol! Perfect video to kick off 2024. You covered so many basics, and left links to all the helpful tutorials, which made it the perfect reference video to save. Would you be able to tell me where I can purchase the connector you used with the second pair of earrings that has the cross? I would love to make a pair of earrings with that connector for so many of my friends, and I'd love to have a pair as well! Thank you.
Hi Deborah, there is always a link in the description to the accompanying blog post. We have them in stock but unfortunately I was not able to find the exact same one on Amazon but I've linked to similar ones in the blog post. Here's the link for the blog post (click New Zealand if you want to purchase the exact one from us): www.affordablejewellerysupplies.co.nz/blogs/beading-projects/learn-how-to-make-jewellery-in-2024-5-beginner-projects

Love love love those boho earrings!! 💙🖤💙 What a shame the connectors aren’t available in the UK, but I’ll try to find something similar. I love your tip about ensuring all loop closures face the back - I try to do this on all my jewellery, it’s such a small detail but makes all the difference to the finished result. Thank you as always Carol ❤
I knew you would love these, Jane! I do too. They are definitely going into my collection. The connectors are very old stock so I'm not surprised that you can't find them. I did find something similar on Amazon which I linked to in the blog post but they aren't the same.
Love this video. It's promoted me to want to do my own necklace. I usually just do stretch bracelets and ones with lobster clasps. But I'm getting more stuff and a wide variety of beads. So this video has prompted me to make a set. As I don't usually make necklaces. Brilliant video. Clear and easy to follow x
Thank you so much, Natalie. You should also try a memory wire bracelet - they are heaps of fun! Here's some to get you started: ruclips.net/p/PLPf_M492CDQMyQ0su0peTx5YPJlWJ2sdW
Hi Carol,I’ve been watching your brilliant video’s over the years,and find your tutorials so informative and love your elegant designs.I used to make&sell jewelry about 10 years ago became burnt out. It’s time to return and make some pieces for me again.(I’m a painter first & foremost) but they generally take longer,whereas as you rightly say,jewelry making is fast and I love to make items to contrast with my clothing or mood. You’re a really nice&upbeat craftswoman and I love your work. Love from Ontario,🇨🇦♥️
Thank you so much, Jean. I used to live in Mississauga in the GTA so quite familiar with Ontario. Lovely place. Yes, I was feeling burnt out earlier this year too so took some time off. You might like to watch this one. ruclips.net/video/WKUziGRp7qE/видео.htmlsi=ALm-2e_jpmgVw-75
Ok I have made 3 bracelets and a pair of earrings this week 😆😆thank you so much! Do you have any videos on how to put on cord ends for the thicker cords for bracelets ?
First of all a Happy 2024 ! I always find it hard to work my pliers around a crimp cover. I do it very carefully, but they can be quite hard and not that easy to work with and they end up looking egg shaped even though I try to work it from all sides.......and then I can't get them off and I have to start over when it's at the end...I have now bought some shrimp beads to try.
Happy 2024 to you as well. Yes, crimp covers are actually my nemesis too. What I've found is that if you use your crimping pliers rather that your chain nose pliers it seems to work better. Also I squeeze it closed and then turn a quarter turn and squeeze again and continue on until I get it round. I hope that helps.
Thank you, I have tried all pliers, even my magical pliers which I find work okay on small crimp covers. Maybe it just depends on the material the crimp covers are made of, I wonder sometimes.....but I try to avoid them as much as I can.@@The_Stylish_Maker
I am working on a video for this. I did one for my members of the Jewellery Box group late last year if you can't wait you could watch that one but you will need to join to do that.
I belong to two monthly bead subscriptions so I have plenty of supplies but haven’t made any jewelry yet! Intimidated, I guess. I appreciated your video with clear instructions to ensure the pieces don’t fall apart with wear. I have subscribed and will watch your other videos too. PS. Love the purple on those glasses! ❤Thank you!
Thank you so much, Kimberly. Welcome! To quote Nike, "Just Do It"! :) In my opinion, the best place to start is making earrings. Here's a video that might help. ruclips.net/video/TMpxEiiTWKk/видео.htmlsi=_qJxfSs6r0_ddyol
Thank you for your videos I have a lot from them you are a great teacher I have a question where can I get spacer jump rings lobster glass and spacers the wont tarnish after all the work and after a while you jewelry has tarnish I use more silver than gold I will appreciate you help and probably others too god bless you.
Thank you Miriam. Most pieces don't tarnish as they are generally coated with something to stop tarnishing. However, it's actually about how you store your jewellery. You want to make sure that your jewellery is stored somewhere dry (damp is the enemy). I store mine in plastic bags with anti-tarnish tissue paper like this: amzn.to/4286otR
Hi my Sister ,Carol. Happy Blessful New YEARS 2024. Gorgeous jewelry Design pieces. Love them all.🎉. Thank you for being a blessing to everyone in sharing your talents with us.

HI Jeevan, I generally use a 0.38mm tiger tail but if you're using beads with really large holes sometimes tiger tail isn't the best. You might find using a leather cord might make the beads sit better. I'm glad you found me too. Carol
That's a great question. I've never had that happen unless I've been really rough with my jewellery. I'm working on a video all about how to organise and store your jewellery so that's a good point to bring up. Thank you for that.
You will need either a head pin (has a flat head like a nail) or an eye pin (has a loop on the end) so that your beads don't fall off. You can purchase head pins and eyepins here. amzn.to/3Y6Je5d
Thank you. Aluminium wire is softer than half hard wire. It's very malleable which makes it ideal for wire wrapping. If you are making loops (not wire wrapped loops), I would not use aluminium wire as it may not hold its shape. You could wire wrap the loops if you wanted to. If you have headpins, they are usually made from half hard wire so you could cut the end off - not sure if it will be long enough but worth a shot.
Thank you Swita. You mean the dark blue ones? They are actually a lot easier than you would think but there is also the option to leave off the upper component and just add the dangles. That's super easy once you master the loop.
You will find a link in the description box of all my tutorials which takes you to a blog post where all of the supplies are listed. Here's the link for this one: www.affordablejewellerysupplies.co.nz/blogs/beading-projects/learn-how-to-make-jewellery-in-2024-5-beginner-projects
I have a dumb question: How do I harvest the beads off a knotted bead necklace without damaging the beads? Just snippers and tweezers? What if the cord gets stuck inside the bead?
Hi Ida, no dumb questions. You would need to snip on one side of every bead. They should fall off without any damage if you're careful. Glass beads and pearls are much hardier than you think. Just give it a try.
Hi Carol, could I talk to you in means of helping me?I am trying to make beed jewelery, and also,I have been trying to make key chains.But I want to make it the best for selling.Because I'm doing it as a hobbie and to make extra cash.
Hi Ashlee, how can I help. I did make a key chain video - you can watch that here. ruclips.net/video/epbvNYDC7EY/видео.htmlsi=VupfPayo2UqxUV-s I have lots of tutorials. What are you struggling with?
You can contact me via carol@thestylishmaker.com. You can also contact me via my membership group. If you are needing more help, that might be the best way to go. There are lots of lovely people over there who share their ideas, resources, etc, and you get extra videos, livestreams, zoom calls, etc with me.

Good question, Janet. I often do use my 1 step looper to make loops - you can see a video about that here - ruclips.net/video/oloQbFdgOoc/видео.htmlsi=lYbhxiaxjnw-dBGn. However, most beginners are not going to have a 1 step looper and there are times when you can't use your 1 step looper so it's important to know how to make loops yourself. As this was a beginner project, I wanted to teach them how to make loops.
Hi Shelley, I have made necklaces with alternative types of closures. I'm not sure what you mean by continuous necklace. Do you mean a long necklace that goes over your head without needing a clasp?
@@shelleywebb2542 Thanks for the clarification. I haven't done a tutorial for a necklace like this. What you would need to do is put each end of your stringing material through the crimp tube in opposite directions and then crimp it. I hope that makes sense.
