Hi there! We have used our E6000 glue which you can buy from our website here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/glue/e6000-plus-glue-266ml.html

Hi there! E6000 would likely be better than epoxy as it would be less harsh on the pearl's surface while still making the join secure. E6000 instructions recommend "Apply directly to surfaces to be bonded. NOTE: For non-porous surfaces, apply adhesive, mate surfaces together, pull apart for 5 minutes then re-mate surfaces. Remove air by squeezing them tightly together. Allow 24 hours for full cure." Hope this helps! You can buy the glue directly from The Curious Gem here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/glue/e6000-plus-glue-266ml.html

@@thecuriousgem-jewellerymak9546 Awesome, thank you for the detailed response!

Hi Charlotte, yes this glue should work for you. The packaging on the E6000 glue has some great instructions on how they recommend using it, they say, "Apply directly to surfaces to be bonded. NOTE: For non-porous surfaces, apply adhesive, mate surfaces together, pull apart for 5 minutes then re-mate surfaces. Remove air by squeezing them tightly together. Allow 24 hours for full cure." Hope this helps, you can buy the glue directly from The Curious Gem here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/glue/e6000-plus-glue-266ml.html

What a great tip! ✨

No problem, glad we can be of help! 😃

Hey @castellano17 we recommend allowing 24 hours for the glue to dry, however depending on what you are glueing it could be up to 72 hours for full cure. The Curious Gem.

It's a great trick! 🤩

It's such a great tool! 👍

Hi, the cord length in this video is approximately 30cm. We wrap the cord around the wrist twice as an approximate length, then trim it down for the exact length. I hope this helps, The Curious Gem.

This punch can be used with card up to a maximum of 270 GSM, the card we have used in the video is, 225 GSM. The card size can be determined by your design, hope this helps, The Curious Gem.

We are extremely careful when using our E6000 glue. However, if you are working on something fiddly or think you could get it on your skin, gloves add some extra protection.

Hi there, there is not a needle in this video. Which element would you like more information on?

@@thecuriousgem-jewellerymak9546 i dont know what its called so i called it a needle. I mean the metal string thing whatever its called, that you put the pearl in?

Hi, so the part the pearl is attached to is a Sterling Silver Ear Post with Cup and Peg. The cup that the pearl sits in should be around two-thirds of the size of your pearl. Hope that helps, you can find our full range of cup and pegs here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/search/for/ear+post+with+cup+and+peg/⁠ @@r4rnf

What type of glue

Hi there - you can find it at www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/sawing/greenlion-saw-frame.html

Hi @kaymel9786 You can close the jump rings using this tool also, just insert the jump ring and twist in the opposite direction using your pliers. Hope this helps.

Hi, yes you can find this heart tag here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/sterling-silver-charms-and-pendants/sterling-silver-heart-pendant-19mm-optional-engraving.html

@user-hq8rn4nl9b Yes you can purchase the charm on our website, the code is CG9879 or you can find it here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/sterling-silver-charms-and-pendants/sterling-silver-heart-pendant-19mm-optional-engraving.html

Hi, the beads on the bracelet are 3mm, this is our Gold Filled Bead (3mm) Stretchy Bracelet ~ 6.5", available in gold filled and sterling silver. You can find them on our website here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/search/for/stretchy+bracelet+%283mm%29/

Hi there, this video really is showcasing the knotter tool rather than how to make the whole bracelet. The beginning knot will really depend on the style of bracelet you would like to make and the closure you would like to use. It may be worth planning how you would like to create the bracelet (for example, a toggle closure, or adjustable knot) as this will then help you find a tutorial of how to start! We also have some excellent guide books on our website which you can find here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/books.html

Hi Barbra, this can be closed by holding down one end with a finger then pulling with the other hand, however, if the knots are tight we have a tool that can assist here: www.thecuriousgem.co.uk/miscellaneous/ez-hook-3-in-1-fastener.html. Hope that helps, The Curious Gem.

Oh, OK. So, if I want to make this fit a wrist that's 6.5 to 8, how do I figure out what size to cut the strings or where to place the knots? I have watched over a hundred videos. I feel so defeated.

@@barbra429 Hi! The length of your cord needs to be around double the finished length of your bracelet or necklace. Any beads or charms need to be threaded on the cord before you tie the knots. This is a rough estimate and it may take a bit of trial and error to get exactly the length you need.

@@thecuriousgem-jewellerymak9546 So if my wrist is 6 inches, cut the cord 12 inches?

Hi, to achieve the full bend of the ear wire we recommend using a wire length of 2" however you can test this to find your perfect ear wire, alternatively you could trim down the end of the earwire after bending for personal preference. Hope that helps.

Hi there - ametrine is always purple and yellow (amethyst and citrine) not just purple - the saturation of the colours can vary.

You are not alone❤

I am afraid the tool is not adjustable to make different shapes, but it does create a good base, that could then be altered by hand to a shape you prefer, for example, with a shorter tail

@@thecuriousgem-jewellerymak9546 will this tool work with stainless steel 20 gauge?

@@samanthanicholson9015 The tool is designed to work with a 2" length of wire (0.5mm to 0.8mm thick, 20, 22 and 24ga) - we have not tried this with stainless steel wire, but it certainly works with sterling silver

One of the strangest-looking ear wires I've seen.

@@raffinataonline I agree, the ones I got like it I reshape them.

E6000 PLUS can be used on almost any material & just about any application. The waterproof formula and all-weather performance make E6000 PLUS excellent for indoor and outdoor applications, it is also washing machine safe. Hope that helps.

The stamp set used in this video is, ImpressArt Metal Stamping Set ~ Typewriter ~ Uppercase Letters 3mm, you can find this on our website by searching CG13477, and the tag used is, Gold Filled Round Tag 9mm, CG5936.
