I hate to say it, but I'm glad I am not the only one whose crimp tube fights with the wire guardian. Thank you for this video. I really needed it. I subscribed.
I haven’t beaded in years and found a bunch of old projects that I didn’t finish or finished poorly and I gave up. It’s been about 15 years and I used your video to get the proper supplies because crimping tubes have been the bane of my existence and the primary reason I quit beading in the first place. So I watched your entire video twice and managed to repair and complete a necklace. I’m so proud of myself I wish I could post a picture. Thank you so much for your clear and concise directions. I am an adult educator myself and appreciate your approach. You explained everything at the beginning including the tools and techniques you’d be covering. Setting expectations right off the bat! So many RUclips tutorials like this important component. Then you walked us step-by-step through the beading, tubing, crimping, covering, and finishing processes, and closed by reinforcing what you taught us. what we did. You get 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 from this cranky crimped! 😉
I am new to jewelry making and gradually adding to my knowledge by watching videos like this one. I have already sent off for a crimping kit and when it arrives I'll follow your instructions until I can do it on my own. You are an excellent teacher and I know I'll get the hang of this with your help! Thankyou so much.
OMG, Lady! I've been doing the crimp tube wrong for 22 years. I finally gave up using wire. You finally showed me the correct way to use the crimper.
Thank you for explaining this so well and thoroughly!
Wonderfully instructive video, excellent communication, thnx!
Excellent tutorial , very clear footage. Thank you
Thank you! You went through each step. Very nice clear video and explanation.
What a wonderful tutorial! You were very detailed and as a new comer to the beading hobby it was appreciated. Also your design for the bracelet was beautiful, something I would like. So, thank you and I'll be sure to look to your videos to help me thru this fun learning experience!☺️
Thank you! Fabulous tutorial! Exactly what I was needing help with👏💚
Great job! Beautifully and skillfully done! Thank you for your help!

My goodness,if you were a teacher,no children would have been failing exams,and the parents teachers meetings would have been more beautiful ..where have all the teachers gone and one is right here in you tube,,,,,,I must tell you this,,,you are gifted in teaching,,,is not the question of beads nor bracelet at all,,,,I perceived it in you,,,,,,have been watching youtube videos,,,,,,none can be compared to your explanatory ground,,,,,my goodness,,,thank you,you are a blessing.."

Hello, thank you for this tutorial 😁 I brought some supplies a few weeks ago to make myself some Handmade Stitch Markers for my Crochet projects. I have never done anything like this before, I also was not sure about crimps & crimp covers 😋 but I know how to use them now, so this will come in handy for me 😁💕 Erica x
Best beginner video I’ve ever seen. I hope to find more from you. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you for a great video. So many others skim through the steps and don’t really show it. Your video is so detailed and I can see each step you do. Fantastic, thank you
Thank you for this video! Your instructions were very clear and I can actually see what you were doing! I have never seen or heard of a wire guardian… Going to the store today! Thank you 😊
I agree with Laurie Udall!! Your video was the most helpful.
Thank you vey much for the detailed instructions!
Very well done showing crimping, covers and wire guards, easy to follow, video was great
Thank you for the tutorial video, and I can't wait until I start making my bead necklace.
I am so very glad that I happened upon this video on Crimps, Crimp Covers and Wire Guardians. I've always made stretch bracelets, and always wanted to learn how to use these items to make my bracelets more versatile. Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial!!
I LOVE your brilliant video! Thank you. I have been making bracelets and necklaces for a few years, and I have only just bought and tried to use the Crimping tool and this video explains and shows how are where to crimp the bead! So clear and easy to see. I have subscribed immediately!!!
Thank you for this video, everyone else teaches you to use the 1st hole rather than the bit sticking downwards, I have been trying all day to make that way work until I found this method and it WORKS!!
This is amazing, Thank you so much, you've answered some of the mystery around making amatuer looking jewelry, and professional looking jewelry. Awesome, thank you !!!
I have never ever seen it and heard all of this explained so well....thanks a million from us beginners!!!
This beginner is so appreciative of your style of teaching! Thanks so much for sharing!!
Very clear
I watch this often when i want to make a bracelet
Thanks again
Patricia
I finally made this and love it. Your instructions are so good! Thanks
Hi Gerrie, I'm glad you made this project and I hope you enjoyed doing it! :D
VERY good explanation, the BEST one I"ve seen yet
Oh my gosh you have no idea how much I have struggled with crimp tubes/beads! Your tutorial is awesome! Thank you for explaining it. I’m sure it will help! Honestly I was just thinking this morning how much I need to have some help with this! 🤗
I'm just getting into beading so have watched numerous videos and yours is the first one that I could actually see how you use the crimp tool with crimp beads and crimp tubes. Thank You!!!
Hi Laurie -- I am glad that the video was helpful! I hope you enjoy beading!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
Laurie Udall yeah very helpful thank you
You did an excellent job describing and showing how to close a bracelet.
Laurie Udall I always leave a longer tail that goes back through my beads. The reason for that is, if the crimp ever comes loose and the wire can slip out, you have some warning before it comes out completely and then beads will start falling off. Another thing I do is put a jump ring (20 gauge) between the wire guardian and the clasp. I had a broken clasp that I couldn't swap out because I had, directly attached it to the beading wire, guardian or not. I had to redo my entire project. Lesson learned! Also your wires MUST be parallel inside the crimp bead/tube.
Me too. I’ve bought numerous crimping tools trying to get it right. Now I really c how it’s done.
Thank you for making a great instructional video! It is so helpful to see what you're doing up close with concise instructions!😀
Thank you so much for explaining how to crimp. I've looked at several video but yours was the best one!
+maria delgado Thank you so much! I am glad I was able to help. :)

One of the best tutorials!
Just got into making bracelets. Your instructions are so great. Thank you.

FINALLY!!!!! I found the perfect video, in focus, perfect explanation on how and where to use what bead and tool!!!!!!! thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!
Thank you for such a kind comment! I am glad that I was able to help. Happy Beading! :)
this demo is great clear and precise easy to understand liked the beads
Thank you so much for this great tutorial showing how to use a wire cover, crimp tube, and how to slide the clasp over the wire protector before crimping the crimp tube closed. That was so easy to follow and understand. 💗
Best video I’ve seen that actually explained and showed the use of the crimping process. In fact, I’ve ordered some nice gemstone bracelets off of Etsy - however they were made without the crimp guards, and didn’t even cover the crimping beads with a cover. That said I plan to restring them myself using your great tutorial!
I know this video was made several years ago and it is still relevant for a beading newbie like me.
Thank you so much!!! ✨✨✨
Excellent video with great close-up shots.
This was an excellent tutorial regarding crimp tubes and covers etc. Thank you for the slow pace and the fact that I could see each step. Excellent for beaders especially as beginners. I had actually been on youtube seeking crimp advice on seed bead clasps which is a new path for me but happened onto this. Thanks again, very well done.
Hi Janet, what a lovely comment! I am very glad that you enjoyed the video. Happy beading! :D
You are a great instructor! Thx

VERY INFORMATIVE video... thank you!
Best view of the wire guardian. Others would leave me guessing. Thank you!
You are an excellent instructor. thank you
I have watched many videos as I am a beginner in this craft. The close ups of the crimps, covers, and guardians were very helpful. I thank you for making this video as I start my new craft. My many grandkids will love them and I feel confident I can do a better job after watching your video.
Thank you. One of the best instructional videos I have seen so far, explaining some of the findings I never new how to use, such as the wire guard. Thanks again.
Thanks, Valeria -- I am glad I was able to help! :)

Thank you so much. Up until now I have been pretty well "winging it" so to speak. There are alone of good videos on this I am sure but yours really gave me a new understanding. Thank you so much. I can't wait to share this video with my daughter. We just started beading and when she visits from out of town we have a new found hobby we are enjoying doing with each other. Thanks again and God bless. VB
