I watch your videos to listen to you ramble. I find it soothing, especially when I am also crafting to avoid anxiety. The meandering voice over is a feature not a bug.
Yes yes a thousand times yes! I'm crocheting and on the edge of a panic... well, not attack but sort of a panic...mild assault? Regardless, her voice is keeping me tethered to sanity. Love her talk-through/walk-through tutorials 😊
From a teacher of 20 years, you’re a wonderful teacher! You cater your lessons for people who are auditory, visual, or kinetic learners. That’s what successful teachers do. You’ve taught me SO much!!
Anyone that complains to you about this after you not only filmed everything you did, edited it, explained it, made a graph on ps for it, put make up on to introduce it, and so on, does not deserve to watch this. Knowing the effort it is to make what you do, I wish it was more accessible for me to pay you for the content you give for free. ♥
The sardonic tone with which you question the clarity of your explanation is always so amusing to me. Especially because it almost always makes sense to me. Or at least enough that between the description and what I am watching my brain can figure it out.
The actual name for the bead weaving stitch technique that you are using in this piece is known as two needle right angle weave. That might help others to replicate a similar piece. I find it so much fun to let a piece of work just organically evolve as you play with different sized beads and their shapes and arrangements. Nicely done.
you said you do this because you can't knit, but I knit and I'm looking at your beading and just flabbergasted. (I have never let not being able to count reliably stop me, sometimes counting to 2 represents a challenge...)
Chuckling in agreement as I design an upgrade to my home made bed base to make it adjustable with raising and lowering back/foot rests. Sending bad brain fistbumps from New Zealand. ❤
Hey, somebody else with Monkey Brain. Sewing and playing the tin whistle are my 'calming' activities. It used to be reading but Monkey Brain takes over and I lose track of what I'm reading. You just have to take consolation that you are up in that top 1% of creatives, even when you are just distracting your over busy brain.
I love beading - but does anyone else find that the little buggers roll of all over the place even with ths felt mat thingy? My husband moans about finding them every. Mind you, he also minds about needles, lengths of cotton, stray pattern pieces , balls of wool, spare double-pointers.... everywhere.
Im sorry to hear that you needed to calm yourself. I totally understand. You created a gorgeous necklace that will pair beautifully with so many of the outfits you’ve made here on your channel! ❤
Yep, I'm setting up my smocking pleater for the same reason: I need something to focus on instead of anxiety. I hope that whatever is affecting you so much comes right soon :)
Oh boi! We've all been there! Sending you love while your going through what your going through ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I found your commentary a very useful addition to watching what your hands are doing. It let me know what to watch for. The diagrams are also great. Looking forward to hearing what you can’t tell us yet.
It's amazing that I saw this video when it was posted just 6 mins ago... but I just happened to be browsing RUclips at 2am on Tuesday morning... quite rare for me...😂
So pretty! I like to do the bedazzle pictures when i don't want to think. Then i just donate them away. It's mindless but fun and sparkly. However, you wind up with something wearable! Great job. (*I think I'll stick with mine, yours looks like it does take brain power!!!)
Oh! Yes, my mom had pain while sitting too long so we started taking shorter flights to get where we were going. It really didn't cost any differently. If we had time, we'd stay over in a mystery city and look around. If not, we had a chance to get out and move around between flights. She also used the pressure point bracelets for nausea. They worked for both of us. Good luck! Have a great trip
@@jodieroundtree488 The bracelets worked for you? Wow, I wish I'd known about them back when I flew a lot! However, as soon as I left the military I had no need to fly so haven't much since. If I ever need to fly again I think I'll give that a try. Thanks for the tip!
Trying to keep the brain quiet, very relatable. I do crochet whilst listening to pod casts, it does help to do a craft to help numb the over active brain a bit.
Beautiful! 15/0 beads are best sewn with size 12 needles, but even then, they won’t allow many passes through the same beads. One more tip, Dritz Fray check is good for stiffening the end of your thread, dip the end, clean off the excess, let dry for 5 minutes and it should be easier to thread through a needle! Happy Beading!
I adore Czech and Preciosa beads! One thing I do though, is if I just must use size 15/0, I use Myuki beads instead of Preciosa. They tend to be more regular in size and shape, and have a larger hole--you can get through them more than once with a standard size 10 beading needle. I know this won't help with this particular necklace, but just thought I'd throw that out in case!
Its great that people do different things to cope, for anger management I rage bake, anxiety I do arts and crafts and when I just lose the plot generally for no reason at all I clean the house......Today I cleaned windows and everyone I know gets bread, there's also about 10 WIPS now shaming me in my cupboard. The world is a better place as I'm watching you make beautiful things. Thank you.
I totally follow what you're saying but then I've done that figure-8 thing for multiple projects. I do get that it's probably like trying to read a knitting pattern though It's gorgeous! I will never get tired of your beading videos. Or anything, really. Everything you do is nifty, whether you're doing it for fun, for teaching, for a product, or to keep the brain occupied so it can't fret at other things. Hope the trip was fruitful!
Beautiful necklace! Lately, to occupy my mind and keep me from stressing over things, I have been crocheting like my life depends on it. Your new videos I watch and pay attention. My favorites I often repeat while I am crocheting because you have a great voice. I never get tired of hearing you explain what you are doing, and you are a great teacher. Also, I am here for the rambling! 😄
So gorgeous! Brains that just won't shut up are really stressful--I know. I'm glad you have something to help you make it shut up for at least a little while.
Having used tiny beads that couldn't fit on any needle I owned, I can relate. Back in the day, I used a lot of seed beads because A: I was a kid, and B: those were the only beads available to me because no one else wanted them. I thought I hit the jackpot, until I found out I hadn't. This necklace is gorgeous, and so seasonally appropriate. Nicely done.
I've recently discovered that beading needles come in sizes. Size 10 will go through #11 seed beads, but not #15. However, a size 11 and 12 beading needle have small enough eyes to go through a #15 seed bead. This info has changed my beading practice. Good luck on your travels! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you in the house hunt.
I mean, I think it's a perfect necklace for a trip to the post office. 😁 I've found that plane travel has become more of an ordeal for me as I've gotten older as well. I don't get queasy, but I do get awful ear pain from the changes in altitude. Because I live in Colorado, whenever I fly to a place that has a lower elevation, my ears are all 'what r u doin?' and I'm in pain for probably the first full day I'm at my destination. Flying back is usually not quite as bad, because I'm a mile up from sea level when I land, but it still happens on the return trip.
following along and listening to your descriptions is a good way (imo) for having the brain go shush too. :) You make the beadwork seem easy! Be safe on your trip and I hope you get the car situation figured out :)
Im sorry to hear you've been having a stressful time, i hope your trip goes well 🤞 I know exactly what you mean about crafting to keep your brain (relatively) quiet! I really enjoy listening to you explain things and watching you make things.
As a person who never enjoyed flying, I don't hate it I just don't like it either, I highly recommend upgrading to first class if you can afford it. The extra space is so worth it. I also recommend taking Meclazine before the flight. It is an anti-emitic. If course, I am not a medical professional, so do your own research, but I personally find it a cheap way to help. Good luck with all the things! (And the necklace is very pretty. 😊)
You are a wonderful teacher! I have been teaching for years, and I have observed many other teachers, your explanations are always on point. Also, I think I need knitting patterns in audio book forms!
When we were "waiting for news" a few years ago I had to do so much anxiety distraction crafting. Fortunately it worked out well for us. Good luck to you!
Absolutely STUNNING! I had to give up beadwork in favour of some other crafts, just because I was doing so many and I had limited space! My niece is now enjoying making jewellery, so I’ll make sure she sees this. I did think, for a second, that I’d struggle with the whole left-needle-right-needle thing, but I actually understand your diagram! Alas I still think this would send my dyslexia and anxiety into tailspin 😂 but thanks for a beautiful video
This is the necklace my high school dreams. . . I had one fancy beaded one along these lines that I wore all the time. . . But that also always got tangled.
Hello there, I'm so glad that you can find something that quiets the mind. I understand it to be a very good thing, not that I have found one myself. Don't worry so much about not making sense or being boring. I fully believe that the people that can make these wonderful things, will either find it entertaining, or mute just as you suggested. People like me will just listen and follow along and look while you are making it. As have been mentioned in the past, you could read the phone book and make it be a delight. The crux of the matter is: are there other people like me around still? I really hope so. I hope that whatever you don't want to think about has been resolved, by now and that your other trip hasn't been to taxing. I too suffer from queasiness while flying. I take motion sickness meds, but I usually fly across the atlantic and onwards to my final destination s they will have wore out when I arrive. If you don't want to use that, try the armband thingy with the plasticky things that go on your wrist, and perhaps add some ginger. Ginger is good at reducing queasiness too, but hopefully you will been and home again by now. Tricks for next time perhaps. My best wishes for your endeavors. Yours, Ann
This turned out beautifully! I love the bright red, and the design has a Victorian-look to it. Looks great paired with the black blouse, I think. Thank you for sharing this with us!
I’m going to throw in a suggestion to try knitting on flights. I get that queasy feeling but find knitting a sock or a beanie is portable and easy enough to be possible but also occupying enough to keep my busy brain happy through the flight. I also struggle to count. I go from 6 or 7 to ‘some’ EVERY time😂😂. So, I have a chain of beads with two lightbulb stitchmarkers on. I notch the marker along one bead everytime I knit past the marker. Because I have to handle the chain each time I come across it, I am much less likely to forget to keep the tally. If I keep a written tally or try to click a row counter, I just forget. The first stitch marker counts the units and the second stitch marker counts the tens, so the chain only needs to be 9 beads long. ALMOST foolproof. I also use a stitch marker with a single bead on when knitting decreases every other row. Bead on for a decrease row, bead off for a straight row. Most airlines are fine with knitting needles and I have never had my metal needles confiscated, though I know some people take bamboo needles, just in case, and also have heard that Mexican airport security often keeps your needles. I use silicone teething beads as needle stoppers. They are cheap and come in lots of fun colours and shapes. Anyway, here’s wishing you smooth and comfortable flights and your heart’s desire in your current endeavours! As always, thank you for the content 🤗
Thank you ❤ for keeping me company with another beautiful beading. We're both down with C and are nearly well enough to continue our "Lego" model, the Astronomy museum by baka. So your video found me sorting "lego" stones.
Oh man, all of your necklaces are so pretty. i may have to cave and make one of these one day. In the meantime thanks for the sequins req in a previous video, I am spangling a navy blue velvet cloak with all 80+ officially recognized constellations and Cartwrights came through with star-shaped sequins.
1. This necklace is stunningly beautiful, you are stunningly beautiful. Amazing job 2. You need to stop being so hard on yourself! There was so much negative self talk in that video. I think you're doing great! It's definitely hard to do a voiceover for this sort of thing and I think you explained it really well. I know this was a few weeks ago, so I hope you have managed to have some relaxing time and gotten a hug from someone, because you sound like you need it. So I am sending you love and hugs from over the ocean!! ❤
The necklace is gorgeous! I will watch you bead as many times as you post videos of your creations. I used to bead to quiet my mind as well...but I am old now and have neuropathy in my fingers so i had to switch to another form of art. I still love to see shiny beads though! Thank you for sharing! And I hope everything goes well on hour trip ❤
Ots half one at night while i am sewing buttons onto a dress for tomorrow. Thanks for keeping my mind on task while i listened to you. You also speak really clearly and i didn't need subtitles so thanks for that too. (I'm hard of hearing)
That's beautiful. I do beaded jewelry, too, and enjoy seeing the work of others. But I've never worked with charlottes. I have some, but I haven't used them... yet. I have a project in mind, but I'm still gathering components. I wondered if you've ever thought of using a thread burner before. Some of the beading thread I've been using is a little hard to cut, so I got a thread burner to burn the thread ends down when I finish a project. Though, to cut the thread off the spool, it easier to use my wire cutters for thinner wires. The thread cutter is helpful because it gets in closer when trimming the thread ends. Plus it melts the end of the thread and makes a little bead in the end, about the size of a charlotte 15/0. And it keeps the end from slipping out of a bead. I got mine from Amazon. It's the Beadsmith Ultra Thread Zap. The burn tip is retractable so the tip, which is a thin wire, doesn't get bent or otherwise destroyed. And I would surely destroy it because I drop pretty much everything at least twice while making a project.
Very Beautiful! So... God Bless You. Although I throughly enjoyed watching and hearing your banter, I Most Definitely will not be attempting this project. Side Note: I do so hope that the news you are awaiting concerns a very nice vintage house🏠🤗🤗, but no matter what, I wish you success and good health as you travel. I hope you are able to relax a bit before making another video.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you so much for all your work. Your content has really been there for me through some of the roughest of times. I truly admire all that you do. I did recently acquire some glass beads and needed to distract my brain with a new hyper focus and this was a fun way to do so. I just wanted to say that I was having some trouble with the rosette and (It could totally just be me) but I think your graphic shows the 4 beads strung between the two teardrops on the wrong side. I tried it the way it is illustrated and it made a chain of circles. I decided to follow what you were doing and it seems like you thread through the first teardrop then add the 4 beads and then loop back through the other facing teardrop. Geeze, I'm feeling like that was all gibberish. lol - I hope this helps anyone else who is struggling. Please forgive me if I am just reading the graphic incorrectly.
Good luck on your travels! If my flight landed at midnight, I'd stay at a hotel airport and deal with the hire car in the morning (but I am not a night owl)
i really enjoy your voice and listen to some of your posts when i need calm in my life. feel free to hmu for calm voice when you need it in your life. i mean, i don't have any posts, but i'm here for you!
The Beadings will continue until morale improves.
This made me laugh! Clever comment.
That remark made for sore ribs, gasping for breath, and alarmed neighbors because of my gales of hysterical laughing! Thank you!
Grrroan 🤣
well played.
😂😂😂
I watch your videos to listen to you ramble. I find it soothing, especially when I am also crafting to avoid anxiety. The meandering voice over is a feature not a bug.
Yes yes a thousand times yes! I'm crocheting and on the edge of a panic... well, not attack but sort of a panic...mild assault? Regardless, her voice is keeping me tethered to sanity. Love her talk-through/walk-through tutorials 😊
From a teacher of 20 years, you’re a wonderful teacher! You cater your lessons for people who are auditory, visual, or kinetic learners. That’s what successful teachers do. You’ve taught me SO much!!
Anyone that complains to you about this after you not only filmed everything you did, edited it, explained it, made a graph on ps for it, put make up on to introduce it, and so on, does not deserve to watch this.

I second this!
❤❤❤
Third!
"so my brain will be quiet" I feel that. I have been crocheting Xmas gifts early just to keep my adhd under control. XD
Hello Brains 😃!
October is the correct time for making hand made Christmas gifts imo
I hope that anxious "week and a half or so" resolves into wonderful things.
The sardonic tone with which you question the clarity of your explanation is always so amusing to me. Especially because it almost always makes sense to me. Or at least enough that between the description and what I am watching my brain can figure it out.
The actual name for the bead weaving stitch technique that you are using in this piece is known as two needle right angle weave. That might help others to replicate a similar piece. I find it so much fun to let a piece of work just organically evolve as you play with different sized beads and their shapes and arrangements. Nicely done.
Crafting to shut down the brain …. I felt that lol
you said you do this because you can't knit, but I knit and I'm looking at your beading and just flabbergasted. (I have never let not being able to count reliably stop me, sometimes counting to 2 represents a challenge...)
Fibre arts really teach you that you cannot actually count
Cross stitch my darling enemy.
That is a really beautiful choker. I can see it with an off the shoulder style 1882 slim silhouette dinner gown.
*gives Bianca a comforting hug* as someone with audhd and ptsd brain noise/bs is very familiar.
Chuckling in agreement as I design an upgrade to my home made bed base to make it adjustable with raising and lowering back/foot rests. Sending bad brain fistbumps from New Zealand. ❤
Hey, somebody else with Monkey Brain. Sewing and playing the tin whistle are my 'calming' activities. It used to be reading but Monkey Brain takes over and I lose track of what I'm reading.
You just have to take consolation that you are up in that top 1% of creatives, even when you are just distracting your over busy brain.
That title was so painfully relatable I had to subscribe.
Also the necklace is beautiful.
Welcome!!!!
Thank you!
I just adore your necklace videos, and all your videos, but they are so calming to watch, and I really needed this today!
Thank you ❤️
Your needle size can make all the difference in beading with 15/0, especially czech. Beautiful necklace!
I love beading - but does anyone else find that the little buggers roll of all over the place even with ths felt mat thingy? My husband moans about finding them every. Mind you, he also minds about needles, lengths of cotton, stray pattern pieces , balls of wool, spare double-pointers.... everywhere.
Im sorry to hear that you needed to calm yourself. I totally understand. You created a gorgeous necklace that will pair beautifully with so many of the outfits you’ve made here on your channel! ❤
Thank you Dawn ❤️
I love your beading and sequining projects! I also sympathize with “so my brain will be quiet.”❤
I love the sparkly beading videos. And the sequinning videos. All of the really sparkly ones.
Yep, I'm setting up my smocking pleater for the same reason: I need something to focus on instead of anxiety. I hope that whatever is affecting you so much comes right soon :)
Oooh do you know what would be cute? A little beaded wreath brooch with green red and gold beads. Maybe.
Now I realized I crochet more when I'm anxious.. Btw you're the best teacher ever...
Oh boi! We've all been there! Sending you love while your going through what your going through ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I really enjoy listening to you explain things and watching you make things.
Your work is incredible, as is your resolve. We all do what we must to quiet the screaming void that is our brains.
Hopefully everything that had you tided in knots has resolved itself fabulously. You have helped me tremendously with my beading projects. Be well.

I'm not interested in beading at the moment, but I love to hear your voiceovers, so I do mending or whatever while I listen to your voice.
Thank you ❤
1. This necklace is stunningly beautiful, you are stunningly beautiful. Amazing job 2. You need to stop being so hard on yourself! There was so much negative self talk in that video. I think you're doing great! It's definitely hard to do a voiceover for this sort of thing and I think you explained it really well. I know this was a few weeks ago, so I hope you have managed to have some relaxing time and gotten a hug from someone, because you sound like you need it. So I am sending you love and hugs from over the ocean!! ❤
Thank you Lexi! I'm stuck in a rough time behind the scenes but "just keep beading" 😅❤️
So beautiful! And quite unobtrusive enough to be an everyday item!
Thank you!
The necklace is gorgeous! I will watch you bead as many times as you post videos of your creations. I used to bead to quiet my mind as well...but I am old now and have neuropathy in my fingers so i had to switch to another form of art. I still love to see shiny beads though! Thank you for sharing! And I hope everything goes well on hour trip ❤
Thank you Corey!
Ots half one at night while i am sewing buttons onto a dress for tomorrow. Thanks for keeping my mind on task while i listened to you. You also speak really clearly and i didn't need subtitles so thanks for that too. (I'm hard of hearing)
That's beautiful. I do beaded jewelry, too, and enjoy seeing the work of others. But I've never worked with charlottes. I have some, but I haven't used them... yet. I have a project in mind, but I'm still gathering components.
I wondered if you've ever thought of using a thread burner before. Some of the beading thread I've been using is a little hard to cut, so I got a thread burner to burn the thread ends down when I finish a project. Though, to cut the thread off the spool, it easier to use my wire cutters for thinner wires. The thread cutter is helpful because it gets in closer when trimming the thread ends. Plus it melts the end of the thread and makes a little bead in the end, about the size of a charlotte 15/0. And it keeps the end from slipping out of a bead. I got mine from Amazon. It's the Beadsmith Ultra Thread Zap. The burn tip is retractable so the tip, which is a thin wire, doesn't get bent or otherwise destroyed. And I would surely destroy it because I drop pretty much everything at least twice while making a project.
Thank you! I have a bic lighter that I find serves the same purpose 😅
Hugs, hope the chaos eases. Fabulous necklace, I use beads to quiet my mind too
You have more patience than I do. Lovely necklace. 😊
Thank you Donna!
Truly it is gorgeous. Also floops is now the technical term as far as I am concerned.
Thank you! Drape the floops!
Love the necklace it’s really stunning.
Hope all is well and your trip was fun!
Thank you Robin, it was not fun but was instructive 😅
I absolutely love your beading videos! Please continue to make more! ❤
what a beautiful necklace miss bianca! hope that it helped quiet the brain down and that you get good news !!
Thank you Nicole!
Wow Amazing ❤!!
Very Beautiful! So... God Bless You. Although I throughly enjoyed watching and hearing your banter, I Most Definitely will not be attempting this project. Side Note: I do so hope that the news you are awaiting concerns a very nice vintage house🏠🤗🤗, but no matter what, I wish you success and good health as you travel. I hope you are able to relax a bit before making another video.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
You look like Inara from Firefly with a beaded choker in that color. It looks stunning! I hope things calm down for you soon
Thank you!!
Thank you so much for all your work. Your content has really been there for me through some of the roughest of times. I truly admire all that you do. I did recently acquire some glass beads and needed to distract my brain with a new hyper focus and this was a fun way to do so.
I just wanted to say that I was having some trouble with the rosette and (It could totally just be me) but I think your graphic shows the 4 beads strung between the two teardrops on the wrong side. I tried it the way it is illustrated and it made a chain of circles. I decided to follow what you were doing and it seems like you thread through the first teardrop then add the 4 beads and then loop back through the other facing teardrop. Geeze, I'm feeling like that was all gibberish. lol - I hope this helps anyone else who is struggling. Please forgive me if I am just reading the graphic incorrectly.
omg i thought i was the only one lol. every night I'm hunting for new videos so i can bead along and just... do nothing else :)
So pretty, I love the necklace, I can't wear anything that close to my neck, I tend to panic. ❤
Beautiful necklace, Bianca.
Good luck on your travels! If my flight landed at midnight, I'd stay at a hotel airport and deal with the hire car in the morning (but I am not a night owl)
Lovely necklace!Thank you so much!
