For a newbie, it is overwhelming to decide which size rings and beads to use. This is a really good tutorial and your bracelets are lovely. ❤ Thank you for the lesson! 🙂
I had always thought this was so hard to do, but the way you've shown it... It's just sooo easy! :D Thank you!
My boyfriend makes a lot of pretty complicated chain maille projects, and after watching the video together, while I was reading comments to him, he immediately said "Cowgirl and Antonietta both probably need to use a thicker gauge jump ring". In the video, they were talking about using a 19 gauge. You would be surprised how thick a 19 gauge is. Remember too, the larger the gauge #, the thinner the wire. A 24 gauge wire is quite a bit thinner than a 19 gauge wire. Good luck! Hope this helps.
This was so easy to make! I made a cute bracelet with bright silver 8mm rings, and seafoam colored 6mm rounds. It's spring-like and adorable! Thank you for the wonderful tutorial.
If your beads are falling out, you may need to try slightly smaller or slightly thicker gauge jump rings. I haven't used this technique on pieces that small, so I can't say for certain what will work. You'll just need to experiment with the sizes.
i strung my beads in the middle up the chain and they worked great! no loss of beads no matter what size. this is an awesome look and saves on bead use. thankyou for posting the vid.
Megan I just want to tell how much I enjoy your video tutorials. You're an excellent teacher! I try& watch all of them. I've learned so much. Thank you!
As I said in the video, different beads and rings will have different results, and you may just need to try a few before you find the right fit. First, make sure that you're ring measurement is the outside diameter and not the inside diameter. Also, keep in mind that this will probably only work with round beads. After that, if your beads are falling out, try a slightly smaller ring.
I've usually found that if I'm using a thick enough jump ring, I don't really have a problem with them coming apart. Try to make sure that you are using a thicker gauge (especially with a larger jump ring) and they should be a little more sturdy.
thank you for clear easy instructions! (and no annoyingly loud music!
I agree! some of these videos drive a person up the wall with their irritating background music.
Yes
Lol. I will have to agree. I ask one woman who played very loud Christmas music, I asked very nicely if she could lower the sound because could hear nor see what she was making. :( She came back with the nasty oh! you don't like Christmas music! Which Yes. I love music but not at 75 percent sound.
Thanks for sharing and the clear instructions! I am starting a new adventure working with jump rings and this looks like fun :) The part where you open the rings to add the bead makes me think of a four petal flower. So in my head I can help but think: "open the flower, insert bead, hug the bead, add a flower" You might think it's weird, but an analogy like this might help someone younger learn this. :)

I agree with you I have so many jump rings I haven't used yet
The shape and uniformity of the beads and rings can make a big difference in this technique. A round bead versus a faceted bead can require a completely different size or gauge ring. If the beads are falling out, I'd suggest experimenting with smaller rings or with a slightly thicker ring gauge.
Yes of course there are many possibilities. In this video for example we used a size 8mm bead, so you'll want to make sure the glass pearl beads you use are 8mm.
So easy thank you! I’ve been out of my jewelry loop for a while and this gave me the confidence I needed again thanks! 🙏🏽🧡
The earrings are all done. I hung some copper washer shapes at the bottom and they came out really cool! This technique is so fun I wish I had more 8mm beads so I could make a whole bunch of things. I would do a necklace next! These segments have a really nice drape to them.
This was the first piece of Chain Maille I have ever made & I love it lol I did mine with 8mm & 6mm red glass pearls ...so classy :) thank you xxx
Thanks, I've never done chainmail jewelry before, but this didn't seem terribly hard, and your instructions were clear, so I dove right in and made this! I can't show you a picture of the result because RUclips doesn't allow URLs in comments, alas.
Very nice tutorial and design; always fun to go out and see what other folks are doing well.
I just made this w/ 4mm beads and 6mm jump rings and out turned out nicely! Thanks for the tutorial!
Made it and I am getting many compliments, wish I could take a picture and paste here, but cant paste here. Thanks for the video.
Wow it's really simple! Before the tutorial even started I saw how to do it myself i saw the Pattern of the jump rings
I'm Fabiola, thanks for to teach ours this tecnique, you say very good how to make this beatifull bracelet. To much thanks , I'm from México. That God give to you a lot of creative and intelligent .You're a great person.
Hi,I so enjoyed this video,you explain everything so well and show everything slowly,so that newbies like myself can follow without getting lost.I am so looking forward to trying this out,just waiting on jump rings .Thanks again for sharing this video xx
Great tutorial. Really pretty design. Looks fun and like the pattern is basic Byzantine, except with large jump rings to accommodate the bead. I love and ah ha moment when I'm learning something new. Gonna make one of these bracelets tonight while I watch TV! TFS!
Tip: When I do chain maille, I attach a jumbo paperclip onto the beginning rings. It gives something to hold onto in the beginning, esp. if the first couple are a smaller size like in this project.
You make this look so simple and explain it very well. Thank you for sharing, I can't wait to try this.
Happy to help Sandy! We'd love to see what you make, if you're following us on Facebook or Instagram that's a great place to share picture with us
Great tutorial ...I am sitting here on this beautiful Sat afternoon, making bracelets..i decided to experiment with spaces between a number of the beads, and that works too. Thankyou:)
Thank you so much for this video.. you explained it so well.. I've tried this in the past because I love the look, but, had such a hard time, I gave up. I think I was using jump rings that were to small.. ready to give it another go!!
LOVE this design...so delicate and elegant. Thanks for sharing.
Great teaching video
Simple but beautiful! Can't wait to try it. Thanks.
I would recommend using a caliper to determine the size of the beads you're using. Then you'll have a better starting place for jump ring sizes to try. We carry jump rings in many sizes, and should have large enough ones for your beads. It is not only the ring diameter, but also the gauge (thickness) that can affect how the beads and rings work together. You could try using a thicker ring to see if that helps the beads stay in place.
Yes, gauge is very important in chain maille techniques. For the 8mm beads, I used 10mm jump rings in 18 gauge. For the 6mm beads, I used 8mm jump rings in 19 gauge.
Hello, how many mm rings should I use for 8mm beads?
Yes, it is basically captive inverted roundmaille using beads in the middle instead of the double rings.
thanks please try to make more techniques with jump ring very soon i loved working with jump rings and the outcome was marvelous
We are also considering stringing the beads up the middle with a thin piece of semi translucent fireline cord. This would be so that the beads don't wiggle around and show their holes, not so much to keep them in, although it could help in that regard, too!
14 gauge is quite a bit thicker than what I've used for this. That will mean you will need a smaller bead, yes. If the 8mm bead is working for you, and they aren't falling out, then that should work just fine. If you'd like to fit larger beads in there, you'll need to use a thinner gauge, maybe something closer to an 18.
They are called flat chain nose pliers. You can get them on Beadaholique . com's website. The links for the supplies in this video are located in the video description underneath this video.
Amazing! I always wondered how the Chain Mail bracelets got started....thanks so much!
Wot a fab video, I have never seen chainmaile like this. Very clear and concise videos as usual.
Как же мне нравятся такие украшения !!!👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰
Thanks! 💖
Thank you so much for uploading this video!! I nearly drove myself crazy trying to figure out how to do this on my own - it's so much simpler with your explanation!! I also think I was using the wrong size of beads and jump rings, which wasn't helping. Thanks again!
We used size 5mm 20 Gauge jump rings for the beginning and the end. You can get the supplies featured in our videos on Beadaholique . com's website. The links for the supplies in this video are located in the video description underneath this video.
Super cool! Thank you.
Awesome and elegant. Never tried anything like this before.
I used 8mm, 19 gauge rings with my 6mm faceted round beads, and a 15mm clasp.
Is that an 8mm inner diameter or the Outer Diameter.
@@lynnswanson851 It is 8mm outer diameter. Thanks for watching!

and I have almost lost my nerves till I ve found the matching size of my pearls with the jumprings. gosh.
I love this idea!
This is great! Thanks so much for this clear tutorial! I never realized it was so simple! Now you got me inspired! I'm going to make some things with this technique right away!
this is so much easier than I thought it would be THANK YOU
Image a dress with this technique 👀
Absolute luxury
Thanks for the tutorial! This looks very doable after watching 😊👍
Thanks for watching!!
Very cool project (11 years ago?!)! Looks like a test in patience but I think I might give it a go!
Go for it! The look is really unique.
I have wanted to try chain maile, but I think may be an easier beginner project for me, Thanks
very nice u make something so complicated to look at so simple to make thank u
Wow you explained something that looks so complicated so easy to do! Awesome! Going to try this with smaller beads! Thanks for the great videos, you explain things so great! :-)
Thank you for your wonderful tutorial!!!
You did it again!
This tutoriales was the best!
Thank you! : )
I really like this tutorial. Looks hard but I see that it is not. Thank You
Deff giving these a try for this years xmas gifts. Love it! thanks.
wonderful! Might be a nice time to make your own jump rings to fit... and maybe your own beads, too!
My experience is different - even with 1mm difference the bead falls out. However it works perfect when the ring inner diameter is equal to the bead diameter
Excellent video, very useful!! Thank you very much!!! Greetings from Argentina.
Love it!
Eres genial, ya realice la pulsera el collar y los aretes y quedaron divinos.
Gracias por compartir.
Beautiful design, looks like something I can do! Thank you!
Glad you like this, it's a wonderful project for starting out with jump rings and chain maille. The necklace is one of our older projects so we don't carry all the materials for it anymore but we do have some more information on it here: beadaholique.com/products/retired-retired-captured-crystals-necklace
This looks so fun, I'm gonna have to try this! Thanks so much for sharing!!! :D
Excellent!!
I love this technique. very pretty. The only thing I would have to say I do not like is the bead hole thats visible with the lighter bead. It wasn't noticeable with the dark green beads. But otherwise awesome! Thanks for sharing. :-)
Wowow this is really pretty and explained very well! I hope to try this sometime when i get the materials
Try threading your beads on some fireline or similar after putting the jump rings on. It should prevent any escapes.
This is simplistic yet beautiful. I ant wait to try it!! Thanks for the video!
This is very nice. I think I will try it. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful design!
I love this. ❤️ made one. Came out great. Awesome instructions ty
I love this design!!
I love this design and it is so easy. Thanks you!
i think i will have to make this as a present for my friend.
Thank you, that was great and I can't wait to try it out!!!! It really was easy to follow and also will be to do!!
C'est trop beau. Merci beaucoup
💖
Beadaholique Your videos are beautiful and your job is beautiful Why? Maybe the answer is simple because you are so beautiful
Oh, I almost forgot to ask if you could do a tutorial for captured oval beads when you get a chance. That would be really pretty!
This works well with either drilled/undrilled crystals and stones, and undrilled pearls. It doesn't work well with Swarovski pearls as they usually have at least one ugly side to the hole that must be hidden. When I've made this with Swarovski pearls, I've used silk bead cord to string the pearls so that the hole cannot turn and be visible.
Excellent tutoria.
fun stuff, I will have to buy rings for project 💛✌
I tried this, with 4mm, 22 gauge jump rings. It didn't fit together very well, the jump rings were very tight. Going up to a 5mm jump ring, the beads fell right though. You could, of course, experiment to see what results you get.
Great Tut Thanks. Simple instruction clearly told.
BTW..I love this video..outstanding and clear demonstration....thanks so much.
Great tutorial. You always have great explanations Thank you.
Thanks so much! : )
Very good
AGAIN UR WORK IS BEAUTIFUL THANK U SO MUCH
That's very cool.Thanks for the video.
