Non I know what I did wrong on my first round beats. Thank you so much for this excellent video. Explained in a very quiet way and very helpful.
Glad it helped! And thank you for watching - much appreciated. 🙏💕
you are incredible! i love those round beads, hard to believe they are toilet paper! how amazing all the wonderful creations can be done with such mundane supplies. looks you are on 18.2K.
Thank you Anne - that’s a lovely comment. I appreciate your kind compliments but honestly, I’m really not incredible - I’m just driven to do lots of different things like so many of us crafters. It’s what keeps me sane in this bonkers world. But thank you for your message, I do appreciate it and thanks too for watching my video. There are more coming. 🙏❤️
Wow! That's such an interesting idea! The loo paper one is my fav. Although the serviette method is really great too. You're such a creative guru. Lol I empathize with you about the wrinkles. I can relate!! And the heat wouldn't be too much fun either. I really love your natural 'warts and all' videos. Thanks for sharing. 😊💖☀️ P.S. My tips for the heat are soaking your feet in a bucket of ice water, having a cool shower, putting your face under the cold water tap, and keeping up your fluid intake. These are things we Aussies do. We don't all have aircon here, either. But it certainly helps.
Thank you again Susan - I appreciate you watching my videos. The loo paper one does work well but its just a bit messy with the glue! Its not TOO hot at the moment - we’ve had a day of sudden heavy rain storms interspersed with sun. Very dull again right now. To be honest, I’m not that keen on air con - lived with it for 10 years in Canada and it made me very ill - I can’t go into our supermarkets in the UK in summer because they have it cranked up stupidly high and my lungs rebel. So my husband does all the shopping.🤗😂Thanks again for watching my videos, hope you are all coping OK with the lockdown. I’m really worried that they’ll do the same to us again this autumn🤨Take care down under😍
You are lovely, light & make me laugh. Thank you for your fantastic paper bead making! They are lovely!
Thank you Penelope💕that’s such a lovely comment and truly appreciated. 🙏
These are fabulous, and I love the tip about coloring the edges and the beginning of the paper. Thanks so much for the how-to and the downloads!
You are very welcome Linda - and I am thankful for you watching and visiting my website, it makes everything worthwhile. Happy crafting ❤️🙏
Preciosas joyas. Me encantan. Gracias.
olá, como vai. Muito obrigado pelo seu gentil comentário. E obrigado por assistir meu vídeo.🙏❤️
Thank you Gilly for your creativity and inspiration. Your bead work is just lovely. Please stay cool. I wouldn’t be able to survive without air conditioning here in North Carolina. My aunt and uncle have lived in London for over 60 years without it.
You are very welcome and I appreciate you watching and commenting. It has actually cooled down here now thank goodness. Our summers don’t really get hot enough for long enough to justify air con, although our supermarkets do all have it now. I do get why people love air con but it has a really bad effect on my chest and makes me ill. Are your Aunt and Uncle from the USA originally? Enjoy what is left of summer and thanks again for watching. 🙏😎.
It was a pleasure to subscribe to your channel, you fill me with inspiration. As a newbie, I need all the help that I can get in this wonderful new obsession!
Thank you for your lovely comment and for being subscriber here. You are right, paper beading can be a bit of an obsession but at least it’s a productive one!😍 I hope you are enjoying your new hobby - I am pleased to have a small part in it. Many thanks for watching - will be back soon with a new video. 🙏❤️

Thank You from Puerto Rico.
You are so welcome Angelina and hello Puerto Rico from England! Thanks so much for watching🙏💕
They turn out beautiful and I learn a few things. Thank you. Hi from Miami Florida
Hi to you in Miami 👋 really pleased to have you here🙏💕
Thank you. These are all so creative and beautiful.
You are most welcome Anna. Thank you so much for watching🙏💕
LOVE both of your tutorials, great idea to decorate thebeads with those nail stickers ! Thankyou and best wishes ! 👏🏻👏🏻💕💕
Hi Melinda - thank you! Yes the nail stickers are brilliant on the beads - I’m really enjoying using them on all sorts of projects. Thanks for your support and best wishes to you too.🙏💐
Hi Gilly !! Firstly, thank you sooo much for answering my question and with such a beautiful result. I know why you used blues this tutorial, because blues are MY favourite colours too. I've never been mentioned in anyone's youtube before so that was pretty thrilling ! I'm working on having time to do the turquoise beads this week, I had to finish my mother's resin and polymer clay ( two different projects) for her 80th birthday, but this week I think I can do something for me :) Please keep making such gorgeous inspiring projects, and I hope your heatwave ( sooo not a heatwave in Australia at those temps) is over soon.
Hi Allison - you are very welcome - I was grateful for the idea to do these. Would love to see your mum’s present when it’s done - I’m not good with clay myself but I love seeing what other people make. I’ve got an elderly mum too so I know all about having to make time for yourself! Yep - definitely take some time this coming week 😍 Thanks for your lovely comments and I will be back with another tutorial soon - just having a bit of a breather at the moment as life gets overwhelming at times doesn’t it. Oh and summer has given way to fall here but still having nice days though. Much love to you and happy crafting! 💕
Such pretty beads, you make it look effortless, can't wait to try them. I never would have thought to use paper napkins!!! TFS and for the free template.
Hi Sue - thank you for watching and for your lovely comment. And you are most welcome regarding the templates. If there are any colours you would like to see for future templates - let me know. 😍
Love making the beads thank you for the freebie s. Xx

Excellent video! Thank you
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking time to leave me a comment - so glad you enjoyed the video. There are more coming!🙏❤️
Wow thanks for sharing awesome 💕 try living in Australia when we have a heat wave hahahha
Thank you! I bet an Australian heatwave is unbearable! We have had quite high temperatures in the UK this summer (2022)but I'm not going to complain! Making the most of it as we'll be into the cold dreary months too soon. Lucky you - looking forward to spring down under right now!😍💕
Aww thank you for mentioning my name 😍 I will follow your instruction for round beads, lets see! I really really love your accent 😊
You are welcome Abie - thank you for giving me the idea for a video!😍 Apart from speaking UK English, I try to speak more clearly than I do in everyday life so the automatic captions don’t need too much correction - those captions can say the strangest things if you aren’t careful! Thanks for your kind comments. 🙏🤩
@@RainbowLane No need for subtitle. Your voice is clear. Maybe, subtitle is best for those are deaf, the best way they will learn tru reading.. Thanks again 😍
Thank you Abie - a few people commented that I sound bored😂 so I always tell people they can switch my voice off if they don't like it. But lots of others, like you, say nice things. Thanks for yuour support!💐
Gilly, thoroughly enjoy your tutorials as they are so informing. Thank you for sharing your talent to us, plus giving us free gifts of your templates to download. I’ve cut so many strips with my Fiskar cutter, but would like now to use one of the many machines you see other people use. What do you use? Recommend? I’m not “techy”, so I am a little fearful. Thank you. Jerry Lynn
Hi deltalady, thank you, you are most welcome - glad you find them useful. Of all the cutters available I have used two - Cricut and Silhouette. I started out with Cricut many years ago but moved on to Silhouette because at the time, we were not able to import our own designs into the Cricut software. I also didn't like the software and had loads of technical problems in the early years. It was all very clunky and clumsy but I think times have changed and I'm sure Cricut allows you to use your own designs now. And I've heard that Cricut machines are absolutely brilliant now. Silhouette is great and I have stuck with them for my last three machines. The learning curve is quite steep but there are lots of very easy to follow tutorials on RUclips. It can get costly replacing blades and cutting mats all the time but I would not be without my machine, it's defintely a brilliant investment for serious crafters. If you are thinking of getting one, I would recommend really researching online all the machines available and seeing if they do whatever it is you want them to do. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching - always appreciated. 🙏💕
Hi gilly, I tried to find the two paper beads strips for round beads like the red ones. I couldn't find it.on your site. I only found the three strip template. Can you just tell me the sizes in mm for each strip. Is it 3/4 in to 1/2 inch and 1/2 inch to 1/4 maybe. ?
Or what are sizes of each strip?
Hi Diana, thanks for watching and for your question. I don't have any strips to measure right at this minute but I think what you have said should work. When I get the chance, I will measure and let you know but try that and see if it works. Thanks for watching🙏❤️
For the beads made with toilet tissue, you mentioned that you make a hole to eventually drill all the way through. Can you describe that process? Do you make a hole on each side first, or just one side? Thank you!
Hi Laurie, I just make a small indentation in the top of each bead so my drill bit has a target once they are dried out and ready to drill. I don’t put a hole in the bottom because I would never be able to get it exactly opposite the top one. And there is no need anyway. As long as you are careful, the drill goes through in a straight line. Thanks for watching and I hope you make some lovely beads.🙏💕
❤❤❤

somewhere betweenn 53-54 lbs for boned paper US, compared to UK 200 GSM
Thank you Melissa - that’s helpful as I can never find consistent info online about equivalent paper weights between the US and U.K. 🙏❤️
De cuántos CM de ancho es cada tira?
Hola Gracie, ¿te refieres a la plantilla en dos partes?
@@RainbowLane las redondas que van 3 y 2 juntas
Tendré que imprimir algunos y medirlos porque ahora no lo recuerdo.🙏💕
❤❤❤🤗💯💯💯👏👏👏👏!!!
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 🙏❤️
I like you video its great can i ask were you get your paint from and what is it please
Hi Janet, thank you, much appreciated. I had to smile when I read your comment asking what paint I used for the beads. I’m just sorting out all my art and craft supplies to make stuff easier to lay my hands on when I need certain things and I’m shocked at how much paint I’ve got! It could be any one of about a billion choices 🥴😂. I’ll go back and look at the video tomorrow and see what I was using and let you know. Thanks so much for watching and reaching out. 🙏💕
Hi again Janet, the turquoise paint I used on the big beads is from Hobby Craft. It’s just called Turquoise and is part of the Hobby Craft range in 60ml bottles. It’s acrylic. Hope that helps - if you don’t have a Hobby Craft store near you - you should be able to get it from their website site.
I really like the beads you printed out, but I can’t find them on the link you gave us. Can you tell me where to go in your link to find them? Thank you much!
I found them….woohoo! 🙂
Thank you - glad you like them and sorry I was so long in responding - glad you found the designs!😍🙏💕
🌟💓👌💥💯👍
Thank you Cherry Blosson #1😍💕
Thanks for sharing this video, i tried to download the files for the large paper beads, you offered, by i don't understand how to get that done, so could you just tell me the measurements here, meaning the length & width of each of the 3 paper strips, thank you.
You are welcome. It's very easy to download the template. Just click on the link in my blog post about round paper beads (the link to my blog is on the end screen of this video). It will take you to Google Drive where you simply save the files and then you can print them. Unfortunately, I can't give you the measurements at the moment apart from telling you the base measurement is 3/4 inch. If you take two sheets of A3 paper and tape them together to make a long sheet, that would give you a sheet 33 inches long (only two inches shorter than my strips). Then you can draw out a long thin triangle starting with a base width of 3/4 inch going up to a point. Once you've done that, divide your paper into three equal parts, cut them up and then measure the width at the points where the strips need to line up to roll the beads. Then you can work with those measurements on A4 paper. They won't be exactly like mine because I have a curved taper on the ends instead of a point but you should get strips you can work with. Hope that makes sense! Sorry I can't be more specific but I don't have time to go into the files and do the measurements myself right now. Good luck! 😍💕
@@RainbowLane
Thanks for your reply, but i guess i'll try my best to figure out on how to make the correct measurements, it won't do me any good to download anything, as i don't have a printer, anyhow i'll think of something, unless maybe one of your readers here, can tell me the measurements, thanks just the same. Also i don't get what you mean by (A3 paper) or (A4paper), thanks anyhow.
Hi J.M. England - A3 paper measures 29.7 cm wide x 42 cm tall and A4 paper measures 21cm wide x 29.7 tall. They are standard paper sizes in the UK and many other countries. I believe similar equivilents in the USA, for example, are called Letter Size and Tabloid. As I said before it is quite easy to join two A3 (Tabloid size) pieces of paper together and mark out a very tall, thin triangle from a 3/4 inch base. The triangle should be around 32 inches long (or just under if you join two pieces of A3) - so very tall and skinny. Once you have done that, you can then divide the triangle into three equal parts, cut them up and then take the measurement from them. I'm so sorry I can't be more help but I am full time carer to my 94 year old mother and I have very little time to do anything else. I'm sure you can figure it out - I have faith in you! 😍🙏
Ps i am also from england xx
Hi Janet, hello fellow Brit! What part are you from? 🇬🇧
Hi I am icastlford West yorkshire
Oh so quite a way away from us down on the east coast then.
We have a house in bridlington
Ooh lovely! I’ve not been there but have heard about it - I love the seaside. You are a tad up the coast from us! 😍 I’ve just realised I need to tell you about the paint - sorry, I’ll look now. I’ve been sorting out two big boxes of paints today trying to get them in some sort of order. Give me a minute…
Hi, Beautiful work, Is the templet for the round bead still available?
Hi Maria - sorry for delay in replying - yes it is - just go to my website (link on end screen of this video or in the channel About section) and go to my free download page. Thanks for watching. 🙏💕
@@RainbowLane Thank you, I got it finally figured it out, do you use cardstock for this?
Hi Maria, sorry again for the delay in replying, I am juggling lots of things at the moment 🥴. You can use various thicknesses of paper to get different shaped beads. I would say try different papers and cardstock and see what results you like best. 💕

مرحبا عزيزتي اعتقد انكي يجب ان تضعي بإعدادات الفيديو الترجمة الى اللغات التي تودين الترجمة لها وبعدها تظهر عندي الترجمة ، شكرا لكي بكل الاحوال 💐
مرحبًا مرة أخرى ، لقد ألقيت نظرة لمعرفة كيفية القيام بذلك. يخبرني أن التسميات التوضيحية التي تم إنشاؤها تلقائيًا لن تترجم إلى لغات أخرى. أنا أقوم بتحرير التسميات التوضيحية الخاصة بي حتى لا يتم إنشاؤها تلقائيًا ولكنها لا تزال غير قادرة على القيام بذلك. أنا آسف للغاية - سأستمر في البحث عن طريقة لتحقيق ذلك. أطيب التمنيات لك.
