Hi there! Thank you for this wonderful video. Just a tip. According to the designer of the Jewel Loom, you are supposed to remove the rod after you string the warps, before you begin weaving. That increases the tension and keeps the threads tight.
The instructions also say to tie the end of the thread inside the top left button of the loom, not the button on the back. I guess they both will work…..we shall see! 😅
You definitely explain this much much better than the original creator of the loom..you show each step (even something as simple as threading your needle) and you do it at a NORMAL pace. You also string it much easier thanks so much!
I wanted to add, this is the 3rd loom I've bought in several weeks. It's the least expensive AND the easiest to set up. Friends, pls don't think that because it looks simple that it is no good. It's great.
Thanks Julie! We're not the makers of the Jewel Loom but we do love it, we've been specializing in it for years, actually pretty much ever since we made this first tutorial video you just watched!
I am finally going to start using my Jewel Loom, which I have had for several years now. I am, indeed, grateful for this tutorial. And I will watch more!
This video saved my sanity! Working with two hole tile beads and removing the rod, consistently caused my bracelet to buckle when removed from the loom. By leaving the rod in, the tension was perfect and the bracelet lay smoothly when removed.
Well I just started and I got some beginner beads I say that because I see that not all beads are created the same ugh! First project will be a book maker, ugh
I wondered about that. I watched a bunch of videos from beadalon about this jewel loom and they leave the metal rod in. The instruction book that came with my loom has different instructions about how to set up the warp threads and it also says to remove that metal rod once the threads are in place and tied off. I've followed the instructions in this video. What I've noticed is after around two years the center of the loom is starting to weaken and at some point it's just going to snap. You can actually see fractures in the plastic of that center curve. When it finally gives out, I think I'm going to try the metal and wood combination loom. As nice and convenient as this loom is, I want something longer lasting that I only have to buy once.
@@saltycrowLucky!! I did 3 projects and the middle of my loom already has fractures and cracks. 🤷🤦I was wondering if anyone else had the same issue!? Thank you for confirming that it wasn't just me. 😆
I am a HUGE Beadaholique fan! Your videos are always spot on and so easy to follow. I, as a handcrafted jewelry maker, appreciate and feel blessed to have found your site and your videos. Thank you for making my life happier and my crafting, easier. Bless you

Brilliant tutorial ! (as always) I think you’ve sold me 👍😍 I think some painters tape will come in handy for keeping pesky tails out of the way - the cord ones, not my cats ! Thanks girls for another well done show and tell
Yay I got mine now its just purchasing the beads and thread I can't wait to start making these. Thank you Beadaholic it took awhile but I received mine today 😊😊👍👍😊💖💐
I contacted the looms designer (Julianna Avelar) and she says ALWAYS remove the metal tension rod unless making a heavy item. Removing the rod prevents the "ripple effect" that often otherwise occurs
I removed the metal rod as it said in the instructions but when I took it off the loom when I had finished my bracelet my whole work was puckered so had to scrap it was most disappointed after the time it took me to do it.
Hello am new to ths channel.. found your channel while reading comments in Grandmother's channel "Doora" loving family which live in a beautiful rural area. hw much would you say you sell your bracelets/necklaces for? Thx for sharing ♡
We use Nymo size D in the video and it's still our favorite. You can see the colors we carry here: beadaholique.com/collections/nymo?_=pf&pf_t_size=0-Size%3ASize%20D&pf_t_size=0-Size%3AD
Sure, basic looms like this have been made out of wood since ancient times. It wouldn't be too difficult to make one by hand. We also sell this loom online and ship to many counties around the world so if you'd like the exact loom used in the video you can order from us here: beadaholique.com/products/beadalon-jewel-loom-kit-weave-necklaces-bracelets-and-more
I've had the same problem too. I think it's because of the tension, as you said. I did the next bracelet with looser tension and it seemed to make a difference. It's been trial and error, definitely!
I practice and I left the metal rod and when I remove from the loom it was not staight it has little waves in the project. Did I did wrong by leaving it? Thanks
I do wire working for jewelry and was curious if this would be good to use for 24,26, 28 gauge wire and beading. Can this be used with very thin wire as well?
+C. C. C I am not sure. I have never used this for wire so I cannot speak to if it will work or not. Definitely a try it and see situation. If it works come back and let us know, I'd love to see the results.
I've heard that these can break after 1 to 4 uses, is that still an issue or has that been fixed so that you don't need a new one all the time. I think that would get annoying fast. I want a loom I can use for several years at least before replacing.
We still have a jewel loom from around this time in our studio space, actually it might be the same loom. Over the years we've sold a ton of these, and there have been some bad batches which we're always happy to replace, but from what we've seen they can and usually do last for years. If you want to be extra cautious do what we tend to do and leave in the bar, it's quite possible to get good tension without it and it makes a good handle.
I just started this project and your video was very helpful. but there is one thing I don't understand. Why don't you go back through the previous row to connect your rows together? One side of my project is together because that is the side the needle come in and out of, but the other side can be pulled apart. Am I supposed to weave the project together at the end of the project?
I see what you mean. You do not have to go through the other side to "tie it up". Whichever clasp you use should hold it together. For example see our Loom Kits and the clasp used there as well. We have a full video showing you how to finish it off and the rows sit snuggly so that this should not be problematic. Hope this helps! www.beadaholique.com/jewelry-making-kits/exclusive-beadaholique-kits
Your tutorial was great. I am currently experiencing uneven seed beads results in my edges to be uneven. To cover the uneven issue; I have decided to add embellishments. Do you have any other recommendations or suggestions on how I can prevent the uneven seed beads?
Stephanie Miller If the seed beads themselves are uneven, then the edge will be too unfortunately. I recently saw a cool bracelet design with chain stitched to the edge, you could try something like this and that might hide the unevenness. If you are looking for a good quality even seed bead for looming, I would recommend Toho seed beads. Toho Beads www.beadaholique.com/c-62686-toho-beads.aspx?RUclips&
The average size is about 2.5 inches diameter/7 inches circumference. Most of our bracelet projects are around 6.5-7.5 inches circumference. Thanks for watching!
Is the needle always included with the Jewel Loom? I bought mine yesterday in Canada and there wasn’t a needle in the package. Hmmm.....Maybe it’s only included in the kit version that comes with beads and thread.
It should. The Beadalon Jewel Loom Kit we sell comes with the following. 1 bag, 1 needle, 1 threader, 1 loom and 1 rod. Illustrated instructions included with the set. Beads not included. www.beadaholique.com/beadalon-jewel-loom-kit-weave-necklaces-bracelets-and-more.html
Hi Margaret, unfortunately we don't have any left handed designers on staff right now to give an informed answer to this. Let me point you to some videos from a former designer of ours who was left-handed and did some tutorials on another style of loom. These aren't an ideal answer, but hopefully it's helpful for you to see how she works: beadaholique.com/collections/instructional-beading-videos?_=pf&pf_t_designer=0-Designer%3ARachel%20Zaimont&pf_t_technique=0-Technique%3ABead%20Looming
I thought you were supposed to remove the metal rod before starting to bead to make the tension just right???? (According to the designer of the loom) You don't do that on this one?
You do not remove the metal rod with this beading loom. The tension will hold because you have anchored your threads to the back of the loom. You only need to remove the metal rod when you are storing this loom.
Beadaholique I went back and looked at Julianna Hudgins (?) youtube video. She's the designer of the loom, and she definitely recommends that the rod be removed once you have your warp threads. It adds just a little more tension to the threads. I prefer your video for the rest of the how to, but I do think removing the rod works better for the right tension. Each to his own opinion! :-)
+Jeannie S I would recommend that you try removing it ..... I did as you can read in my previous comment. I would just love to see you all remove the rod ..... " as per designer" LOL
As a newbie .. what makes this loom better than other ones? Can I make anything longer or do I need a diff. loom for a longer piece? Also do you have a video showing how to join a length of thread if the original length thru the needle isn't long enough? Sorry for all the questions but I am a newbie :) Thanks
This loom is great for a newbie because it keeps the warp threads separated nicely. If you need something longer you may want to consider this loom: www.beadaholique.com/how-to-use-a-bead-loom.html We do have a video for how to tie off and add new thread in Bead Looming: www.beadaholique.com/how-to-tie-off-and-add-more-thread-in-loom-work.html No worries about all the questions.

There are two version of the loom on the market now. The kit version which you see in the video includes the plastic carrying pouch and a needle and thread. There's also a less expensive version which only includes the loom. It sounds like you may have bought the less expensive version. If you bought your loom from us at Beadaholique though and you didn't received the plastic carrying pouch please let our customer service team know. We only sell the kit version so you should have received the pouch with it. Our customer service team can be reached via email at: service@beadaholique.com
I have not used elastic cord on a loom before. It's an interesting idea I think you would just need to be really careful that the elastic was at a relaxed state when you do your warp threads. If it's at all being pulled, your piece will not look right when you take it off the loom (will probably look great while you are making it).
U forgot to remove the metal rod to it tightens the worp threads. I know this because I watch a different video with the person who designed this loom. Not only that there is a secondary securing method which I didn’t do and now I will have to be really care full removing my project.

@@beadaholique I made it work by making the threads not as tight and starting the project closer to the middle so the threads have the room to come closer together, if you know what I mean 😄 But it sure would be nicer to have a loom that is dedicated to even smaller beads! Thank you for reading my comment 🥰
you need to remove the rod once you have strung to put the tension on the threads. The creator of the loom has a video here: ruclips.net/video/Hs3JLbrNbXE/видео.html
+DeeLightful Co Personally, I've tried both ways, and definitely keeping the rod on. The wires loosen up and one of them even went over one groove at one point. Believe me it's not funny having to start all over again and waste thread.

Hello am new to ths channel.. found your channel while reading comments in Grandmother's channel "Doora" loving family which live in a beautiful rural area. hw much would you say you sell your bracelets/necklaces for?
Thx for sharing ♡
Will you be doing a series?
what size needle is used for the loom? Also how many passes can Nymo go through 11.0 seed beads?
Do you have any tips on sizing a bracelet?
We recommend using a measuring tape or a simple thread/cord to measure your wrist. Wrap the tape or cord around your wrist and have it be comfortable.
You said cut a length of thread to work with, but what length do I need to cut??
I’m wondering if this loomer will work if I want to make a longer project?
I'd say for this loom you can weave up to 9 inches. If you are looking for something longer, I recommend the Rick's Beading Loom.
It would be helpful to know what size/kind of thread you're using for the warp thread.
We use Nymo size D in the video and it's still our favorite. You can see the colors we carry here: beadaholique.com/collections/nymo?_=pf&pf_t_size=0-Size%3ASize%20D&pf_t_size=0-Size%3AD

Can you use thin knotting cord??
You can use any thread or cord of your choice as long as it's thin enough to thread through your beads more than once.

Every loom piece I have created I move from the top down..unless it is just me doing it wrong lol. BTW I love beadaholique videos...just made a order for 8/0s on the site... thanks in advance , emily
You can definitely work from either end of the loom. It's completely a matter of preference and what feels comfortable for you.
My jewel loom has a crack in the middle. Is that possible?
It's possible for them to crack with age but with good care they should last for years like any high quality plastic tool. If you purchased the jewel loom from us at Beadaholique just recently and had it crack contact us at service@beadaholique.com and we'll see if we can help
@@beadaholique bought it in one of thw suppliers in South Africa 3 months back
where do you get all the loom stuff from
I want this
Bought one a couple weeks ago and it's cracked in the middle already. But have six projects done on it.
Hi Harold, sorry to hear about your loom. If you bought it from us at Beadaholique please email us at service@beadaholique.com we'd like to help.
@@beadaholique no I didn't. Duct tape works magic though. Haha
I want to know the type of thread 😢
You can use Nymo or TOHO One-G thread - they both work well for loom work.
How do I end it meaning how do I tie it off
I recommend our video on finishing loom work. Here is a link: beadaholique.com/products/how-to-finish-off-traditional-loom-work-and-add-a-slider-clasp

What type of beads do I use if I want them symmetrical?
+max17937 Miyuki Delicas are definitely the way when you need symmetry and precision. You can see Megan start to weave with 10/0 size Delicas around the 6:45 mark of this video.

I'm not sure where you can buy one in New York. Many craft stores and bead stores carry them if you're looking to support your local businesses. If you don't have any craft stores near you then you can always buy one online from us: beadaholique.com/products/beadalon-jewel-loom-kit-weave-necklaces-bracelets-and-more

mine is not flexible as this one. Very hard to put in the rod
If you purchased the loom from us recently, please send us an email with your order information to service@Beadaholique.com. Your order may be eligible for a replacement if the loom you have is defective. Thank you.
Mine did not come in a zip up pouch.
My loom didn’t have the plastic bag when I bought it.
There are two version of the loom on the market now. The kit version which you see in the video includes the plastic carrying pouch and a needle and thread. There's also a less expensive version which only includes the loom. It sounds like you may have bought the less expensive version.
If you bought your loom from us at Beadaholique though and you didn't received the plastic carrying pouch please let our customer service team know. We only sell the kit version so you should have received the pouch with it. Our customer service team can be reached via email at: service@beadaholique.com

Has anyone used elastic cord on the loom to make a bracelet?
I have not used elastic cord on a loom before. It's an interesting idea I think you would just need to be really careful that the elastic was at a relaxed state when you do your warp threads. If it's at all being pulled, your piece will not look right when you take it off the loom (will probably look great while you are making it).
Thanks, I think I will give it a try when I have some time.
U forgot to remove the metal rod to it tightens the worp threads. I know this because I watch a different video with the person who designed this loom. Not only that there is a secondary securing method which I didn’t do and now I will have to be really care full removing my project.
Thank you
What the tyep of this yarn
We are using NYMO Nylon Beading Thread Size D for Delica Beads. Thanks for watching!

I wish there was a loom for 15/0 seeds 😢 I need smaller teeth
Oh! That's really interesting. I wonder how you can still make it work? I will do some experimenting and if I can come up with anything, I will share.
@@beadaholique I made it work by making the threads not as tight and starting the project closer to the middle so the threads have the room to come closer together, if you know what I mean 😄 But it sure would be nicer to have a loom that is dedicated to even smaller beads! Thank you for reading my comment 🥰
you need to remove the rod once you have strung to put the tension on the threads. The creator of the loom has a video here: ruclips.net/video/Hs3JLbrNbXE/видео.html
+DeeLightful Co Personally, I've tried both ways, and definitely keeping the rod on. The wires loosen up and one of them even went over one groove at one point. Believe me it's not funny having to start all over again and waste thread.
