Kellie, I struggle with moving past my artistic block but when I watch your videos I think of so many creations! You're a wonderful teacher & no matter how rough my day is you always make me laugh. For all of that I thank you so very much! 😘
Thank you Annette for your lovely comments. Artistic block is a real thing that we all suffer from. I sat down on Saturday with a million ideas in my mind and this was all I came up with. It happens to all of us. I’m glad I can help you through it a bit. 😘
Just made it for a friend's birthday. She thinks it's gorgeous so thank you so much Kelly for your generous teachings. Love from Scotland. Ps with your technique could literally make barrel knots in my sleep.
I LOVE THESE TOO!!! Why not say you LOVE them! LOL!!😉 I LOVE COLOUR TOO!! If I had to pick one, it would be the same as your favourite, the blue/gray tone of leather. I think my favourite of what you show to us, is the leather wrap bracelets....AND of course those gorgeous multi-purpose Barrel Knots!!! Thank you Kellie. 💗💗💗😽🎄🎁
I just found some buttons handed down from my family from the rev war. They were buried in a well in Massachusetts to keep them from being made into bullets. Then unburied n handed down, I’m gonna use one for this bracelet!
Oh my heck have them appraised. I love brass buttons and collect them wherever I can find them. I actually love all buttons and consider them like charms and a form of jewelry.
Thank you so much for sharing your projects. You are a fabulous teacher. Just about every video I watch I buy the kits. Now I just have to plan a week vacation to bead.
Kellie I love hearing you explain how to make beautiful things ..you have me addicted to Barrel knots..now they've become easy..what's not easy is finding large hole beads for my 1 and 2 mm leather..hubby is old school ,we're are seniors and won't order on line ..sigh..I have to find a place where I can call 📞😌 and put in an order ..
This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for! Thank you so much! Now to just find time to actually sit down and create some beautiful bracelets for my best friends of 40+ years! Fun gift for them that really takes more time than money! :) I will be checking out your other videos as well. Thanks again for a SIMPLE way to tie these beautiful knots! Linda
I always look forward to Monday and your video. I do love these bracelets, especially the beachy one. I had my first jewelry show in six years over the weekend and did over $1200 so I was extremely pleased. I just saw this morning that you are now doing a box and was so excited. I will be ordering one. So many of the bead stores in my area of Virginia have closed and I don't want that to happen to you. You're so good with the videos and always bring me joy.
You were 100% correct about being patient and taking our time. I LOVE this bracelet, loved making it and want all of those colors :-) Thank you for sharing 💖
Kellie, Beautiful beads, Picasso are my favorites. Cool design and looks easy to make. watching Mon @ 3:45am EST FL. Thanks again for sharing your creativity and time to make these tutorials.
Kellie, I love every single bead bracelet that you make. You are awesome. Keep going, I'm enjoying watch your videos as it gives me lots of energy. Thank you so much.
These look great, Kellie! You're so creative with your lovely designs and you keep coming up with new ones. You have the best channel! Thank you for generously sharing your designs with us, they are fun to make. 😍
I got all three🌸💞. I can’t wait to try this technique! Thank you Kellie for sharing your talent with us! I am. Newbie in leather dabbling and beading but loving it🌸
I bought your bracelet kit and was tickled to find you sent more material than necessary and I was able to make a second bracelet because of the ample supplies. I love it and have received many compliments and I am hooked, thanks for your great instructional videos.
Thank you for your videos! These are exactly the types of Leather Bracelets I wanted to learn to make and there are so many beautiful pallette options! ❤️
Hi Kellie, I'm finally feeling better and have been trying some more of your videos! I made this one 3 years ago (it just doesn't seem that long ago 🎉). I have trouble with the sizing, I'm 6 1/2" wrist, so I'll need 21" of the leather, but I end up with too tight or too loose 🤦♀️. I'm wondering if I'm not keeping enough on my "short side". Would you be able to tell me how much I should keep for the long side and how much for the short side? Thank you again for your amazing videos! I've been practicing your barrel knot trick while watching many of them. I plan on doing the one where you cover the crimp with the barrel knot next!
@@KelliesBeadBoutique Oops! I think you answered my question 2 years ago and I didn't see it as I've been off the Internet. 21 inches is the short part and the rest of the 2m is the long part! 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️😅
This project gives us barrel knot practice! Very cool once again I love it Kelli. Adorable, anything leather. Another kit I'm gonna need! Thanks for all your beautiful tutorials, I love them all! My favorite one in this tutorial is the beachy look. Those are my favorite Picasso bead colors, I already own them in most sizes, I just need the leather, this kit is going to be delivered to me as soon as I can order it!
I love this bracelet so much, I am trying now for weeks to get the knot lie nicely after the cluster of beads, alas still no success....Maybe practice with thicker leather at another project.
I have been going crazy trying to figure out what I was doing wrong! I, finally, came back to the video and I was simply going over instead of under on the knot. It is hard to believe something so simple could drive me so bonkers!!🙄
I really like this bracelet, especially because it is using a smaller leather. If I am working from a spool of leather, wouldn’t I be fine to cut less than 2m with a 61/2 inch wrist. Maybe 1,80m..... Thank you,
These are all beautiful - I liked the red and black one best initially but your favourite is growing on me since I saw the completed bracelet, lovely work! By the way I did get confused in the example of a 7in wrist size you measured out 22 inches ((2 x 7) + 8) but the long length you were using to wrap the barrel knots looked a lot longer than that ... so how did you determine how long the long length of leather would be in relation to the 22 inches? Thanks
Thank you for asking this, Allie B. I haven’t watched the entire video yet, but I already have my supplies set out and ready to go. My brain got stuck on how long the long side was supposed to be because I overthink EVERYTHING. 😂🤣😂🤣 PS - I had several of the tubes from a necklace I took apart, and I didn’t know what I would use them for. Now I know. 🎉🎉🎉
Ugh! I need help! Double wrist measurement and add 8 inches. Is the button then centered? How do you have a longer wrapping side? Thanks! I love your work!
I was really confused here too because the beginning instructions say we need 2 meters of Leather. Took me a minute to figure it out. LOL I decided to just make it - we can always start over! Practice never hurt me a bit!! ❤️
Hi Kellie, I LOVE this bracelet and have made it as a single wrap a couple if times and will make more, but could let me know where you source your Picasso beads please as I can find some on ebay but this must be an expensive way to buy them, I have found a wholesale site called Panda Hall but they don't stock 6/0 size. Many thanks.
@@KelliesBeadBoutique Hi Kellie, thank you, but even with a substantial discount I think they would probably still be too expensive with the postage cost to the UK. Unless we can see what prices you can offer? What would you call large quantities? I was thinking of 50g bags of say 3 or 4 different colours. Thanks. :)
Hi Kell...any chance you could come up with men's bracelets using round "Bolo) cords 2 or 3mm. My brain is not being cooperative. And a designer, I am not Thank you
My husband looked at the tubes, then made me three sizes. It helps when making different size knots. Thank you so very much Kellie. Your ideas seem to be endless. Grace, USA
@@KelliesBeadBoutique I was thinking the same thing too! Probably use a thicker leather cord and metal bead or something for a guy! Thanks for your quick response!
Help! I’m a little confused about how much leather I’m using. You stated in the supplies abt 2 meters, but measured only 22 inches… is that 22 inches just the measure of the top string? But then subtracted from the 2 meters would leave about 56 inches, for the bottom string, making it longer…🤔
I recently made a bracelet for my husband. It fit perfectly for him. However, now it has stretched and too big. Was I supposed to stretch the 2mm leather before starting the project?
@@KelliesBeadBoutique Thanks for getting back. He did not get it wet but it did stretch. I plan to make him another one but don’t know how to measure it. What do you recommend?
❇Make sure to check out my online store where you will find everything you see in my videos and more! www.kelliesbeadboutique.com ❇
Ok thank you I will. Blessings
Your bracelet is beautiful and it’s always such a pleasure to hear your laughter

I live creating with barrel knots. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
What a great way to use some of my 6/0 beads. Thanks for sharing Kellie.
Wow amazing idea to use the tube bead to wrap it ❤️I never would have thought to do that ☺️
Thanks! It just helps keep the knots consistent and much easier to make. 💕
Kellie's Bead Boutique I love it and will Definitely be incorporating this technique in my future beading ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Kellie’s ,you are great teacher and good professional I am learning so easy with you. Thanks 😊
Thank you so much for the kind words. ❤️

@@OG_Beckie_Leigh no need to worry about the long side. Its the measurement of the short side that counts. :)

I sell the Picasso beads and can work out wholesale prices for you if you buy in large quantities. Otherwise they are all on my website.

Hi Kellie's, where do I buy the thing to make the knot?
Here you are. www.kelliesbeadboutique.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=Barrel+knot+tube&Submit=Search
Been offline for lil while..needing to catch up xo made my first eBay sale..
Welcome back! Congratulations on your first EBay sale!
Hi Kell...any chance you could come up with men's bracelets using round "Bolo) cords 2 or 3mm. My brain is not being cooperative. And a designer, I am not Thank you
You are so amazing!!
Thank you so much Sarah 😘😘😘
Could overhand knot be done instead of a barrel know in between?
Yes but he would look and lay completely different.
Love this design!
Your trick with the tube is genius :-). I wonder, would it make a difference if I used a smaller (narrower) tube?
Probably not. Give it a try!
My husband looked at the tubes, then made me three sizes. It helps when making different size knots. Thank you so very much Kellie. Your ideas seem to be endless. Grace, USA
Love the beachy color for sure... Do you think this would be appropriate for a guy? Maybe the red beads (darker)? Thanks! Luv your videos !
Thanks so much! I’m not sure. It might be a bit feminine? Maybe play around with colors and patterns and see how it looks.
@@KelliesBeadBoutique I was thinking the same thing too! Probably use a thicker leather cord and metal bead or something for a guy! Thanks for your quick response!

The 22 is the part that will go around your wrist and where you put the button. The long piece is your working/knotting piece.
I recently made a bracelet for my husband. It fit perfectly for him. However, now it has stretched and too big. Was I supposed to stretch the 2mm leather before starting the project?
Leather does stretch over time especially if it’s worn in the water. Men seldom take off their jewelry when they should.
@@KelliesBeadBoutique
Thanks for getting back. He did not get it wet but it did stretch. I plan to make him another one but don’t know how to measure it. What do you recommend?
