- Stretch cord
- Beading wire
- Craft Wire
- Memory Wire
- Asymmetrical style

Watching this demo was definitely time VERY well spent. Love the color combos even if I'm much of a pink person. Impressed with how you worked thru mishaps and your down to earth manner. Will be watching more in the future.
Thank you so much!
I love all of these bracelets but the last one with the pearls is absolutely beautiful. ♥I'm going to get busy making some of these. Thanks so much for taking the time to make, edit and post this video.☺😊♥
I hope you have fun making these!
I had a blast watching you make these. I have been wanting to learn how to make goddess style bracelets and I appreciate that you demonstrated how to use different techniques ❤
You're so welcome! This was a really fun video to make.
I have that twisted jump ring set and am VERY excited to use them for goddess bracelets now. I also like the way that you start and stop your designs...I've not seen that single bead start/end on other tutorials. I also love the copper and aqua together. I'll likely comment on the final bracelets but I wanted to remember what I thought on the first couple of bracelets. 😂🤣😂
what beauties Beki love the pearl and black one!!
It’s beautiful love the bracelet ❤
Thank you!!
Beautiful bracelets! I am learning so much from watching your tutorials, including keeping each box subscription in separate divided storage containers. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
These are absolutely beautiful. I love them all.
Thanks so much 😊
Beautiful and so much variety! I love the gold and pearl bracelet! They are all beautiful! Thank you for explaining in detail what you are doing!
Thank you so much!
I fine that lining up the order you want the mix of colors helps,
Love the goddess bracelet on stretchy cord. Never seen that before or the memory wire one. Will have to try them. Thank you for the new ideas.
Thank you for watching!
I really love these goddess bracelets. I ordered the crimper and can't wait to get it. Thank you. I also love using buttons; especially shank buttons. ❤️
You are so welcome!
Everything is so Gorgeous!! Love your choice in beads. You're a very classy lady and that always shows in your projects. Hello to your friends.
Thank you so much!
You are amazing .Patience , you do have. Love the assortment of bracelets. Some more than others. Hope you have a very Happy New Year.♥
Thank you! You too!
These are pretty!!
A long tutorial but a great tutorial thankyou Beki for showing us all how to make these bracelets my favourite would be the pearl gold one, it would look amazing on a brides wrist up against a beautiful gown, I'm actually going to ask my step daughter if she would like one for her wedding day which is coming up real soon❤🥂😁
That sounds amazing! Congratulations to your stepdaughter!
Beki! I had fun watching the tutorial with ya to the end. I loved all the different techniques! I liked the style you presented: the Goddess Bracelet. Very pretty. Beki hard to choose which one is my favorite! Really, ok the Button is my favorite followed by the pearl and druzy, and silver fire polish. I loved how you did the craft wire one! You ran out of the black wire, added, and completed! Nicely done! Great tutorial. Happy New Year to you and your family. Thanks for teaching and sharing. Your friend in NJ.
It is really hard to pick a favorite! LOL. Happy New Year Pauline. All the best for you & yours in 2024!
ALL are Very Pretty! The memory wire bracelet shines Beautifully.
Thank you so much!
Made it through whole demo- wow tons of thanks- Happy New Year ❤
Happy new year!
My brand colors are pink and blue, so I love the first one! I will have to try this technique! Thanks for sharing.
That is so cool!
I love every one of them so far!! I am going to try to make some like those!! Thank you for showing us!!!!
You are so welcome!
I love how you separate your kits! tfs ❤
Love the color combos so much. Great tutorial! I have the tool that helps to make the goddess bracelets.
I don't think I've seen a tool for that!
Oh dear, I can tell already that I do not like the yellow-gold with the black wrap….but love the others.
I feel the same. Maybe if the black wire sere thinner…just a thought.
Oh now that I subscribed I see you making with all the lovely beads 🎉🥰
Thank you for subscribing! I hope you enjoy my videos :)
Helpful tip - put one cord through the bead. Then stretch the cord and it gets thinner, then put second cord through the hole.
Great tip!
Beautiful bracelets. Thank you
Love the pearls, not crazy about the black.
Awesome
These are gorgeous. I know it was tougher doing the memory wire one, it it may actually be my favorite of the lot
I think it's worth all the fiddling with it!
So much inspiration! Thank you 💝
I really love the stretch cord I also love the beads that you chose great job💯
Thank you! 😊
Thank you so much for a great video! As a beginner beader this is extremely helpful and I can’t wait to make a goddess bracelet and subscribe to two of the bead boxes you used! I love this so much! Thank you!💗😊✨
You are so welcome!

Your black and pearls would look nice with the textured jump rings, would compliment the druzy in the middle.
You're so right! It'd add some sparkle too!
Hello, Beki. thanks for your sharing, beginner like me felt thanksful for your informative sharing.
You are so welcome!
Veey cool ideas, love the different uses for the bases. Thank you.
Happy New Year !
Thank you! You too!
I'm debating on reordering the curated bead box...but...oh my dear God 😮😮😮😮😮..I have such a large hoard of beads and findings...😮
I can open a small shop 😮...😢
I hear you with that! Sometimes I think collecting beads and findings is a whole other hobby separate from beading and jewelry making!
I understand…I am almost embarrassed by the amount of beads that I own…I must go on a spending freeze.
You’ve done awesome!
Thank you so much!
to help keep your memory wire under control, try putting a jump ring through your beginning loops.
That's such a great idea! Thank you!
❤❤❤❤❤🎉😮❤❤❤❤❤
❤.as usual the short wait for another video was well worth it 🎉❤😮❤..
Beautiful my dear..you inspire this old lady a lot..
I'm reorganizing and cleaning out my studio..
Welcoming polymer clay and resin recently 😮❤....
Enjoyed the video 😮.........❤....❤
Oh polyper clay and resin is a rabbit hole I haven't ventured down (yet!) but it looks like it'd be a lot of fun to work with. I'm glad you enjoyed this long video & hope the organizing is going well.
This was fun to watch! I just got my first BBB for December and love the colors in it. Just a tip for you that I use when making goddess bracelets..I mark one of the ends to keep track of which color goes on which line. Definitely would have helped with the memory wire one. Keep on keeping on!
That's such a great tip! Thank you!
OMGoodness....I heard, "That's 5 goddess bracelets, awe-ha-ha-ha" circa Count Dracula from Sesame Street 😂🤣😂
Sorry for being a bug-a-boo in your comments. I've been in the hospital since Christmas morning and have been lacking entertainment and my furbabies like crazy. So, I can't tell you how 🎉excited🎉 I was to see your tutorial pop up in my notifications!!
I'm so glad that I could keep you company while you're laid up! I hope your recovery goes well & now I'm glad I made an extra long video today!
Beautiful designs 😍 🎉
Thank you so much 😊
Very pretty
Thank you! 😊
This was fun
thank you!
Can goddess bracelets be done on other wiring mediums? I don’t love stretch cord but love the goddess bracelet design…very fun!
I only used stretch cord for one of them! I used beading wire for 3, memory wire for 1 and craft wire for one.
@@BekitoBurrito looks like I asked my questions too soon...it certainly works well with the beading wire too! Love the 2 I've seen so far...watching the rest now
Hey Ms. Beki...I used to have all of my findings separated by color in these different photo boxes in a photo box storage case but other than silver and gold, I couldn't ever find my other findings in the different colors. I had to order dad some stuff on Temu and needed to up the price, so I picked up this small 6 tier storage piece (~$7) and just switched all of my findings into it by type of finding. It's so awesome this way and real easy to find what I need in the color I need it. Just a thought.
Oh that sounds really cool. can you send me a photo of it?
Impressive
Oh, I don’t think I have the patience to do the memory wire bracelet! I’d be throwing all down the drain. Lol
LOL I almost didn't have the patience for it!
You had me until the memory wire then I got stressed out! Lol
LOL! Sorry about that!
I was wondering where you found your crimper? Could you give me the link? I love how it makes the round crimp! So much nicer and less work than having to hide the flat ones with clam beads! I learned so much from your tutorials and I have been beading for years! Proof u can teach an old dog new tricks. Thank you ❤
I got mine from Amazon! It does have a little bit of a learning curve, but if you sit down with some wire and crimps and practice you'll get used to the way it feels when it's smoothed down all the edges.

@@BekitoBurritothanks I just ordered them. Bought a kit with the flex wire too! Thanks so much ❤
Lovely bracelets. Is it possible to let us know which size the beads en rings are you are using. Thank you in advance. Cannot find it in the links of the boxes you mentioned.
Where did you get that blue cord (at approx. 35 min)? I love that!
That's blue lapis colored Softflex medium beading wire. I got it directly from their site.
Thank you! Love these bracelets
I feel like you must be a personal organizer🤣
Oh my, no. I just have to organize my beads or I won't ever use them!
I really enjoyed the bracelet tutorials!!! So pretty. All of them. Do you use special crimp beads with the crimp tool or will any crimp beads work? I am purchasing the tool for some projects and wondered if I needed the special crimps as well. Thx!
You'll need 2x2 crimp tubes. The Beadsmith has good crimps, and I really like Softflex's crimps.
I give you big kiddos for not loosing your mind
Put a dab of color on one string or wire
That's a really great idea.
I like your strorage solutions for the bargain bead box & sam's bead box. Can you share where those are from?
I love organizing my bead boxes in these 15-grid organizers! I usually do the sorting and organizing when I unbox my subscriptions & I get my boxes from Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0822FK3ZY?&_encoding=UTF8&tag=bekito0d-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=4b3dab259f06b30a1f741ae6edbbdf6c&camp=1789&creative=9325
Love all of these bracelets. What size stretchy cord did you use?
It was the stretch cord that came in the findings starter kit for the curated bead box. I believe it is 0.8mm stretch cord.
First time watching, LOVE the show!!!! Where did you get the beading board/table? or did you make it?
I got it from Amazon! www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BWHCQKTP/?&_encoding=UTF8&tag=bekito0d-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=ccbad6ba39ce993a7250b3bf571d3e0e&camp=1789&creative=9325
Thank you@@BekitoBurrito
Love these colors together! Quick question: what gage wire did you use for this?
For the wire-wrapped bracelet I used some 22gauge wire that came in the Jesse James Beads box.
I have an idea for keeping track of which bead goes on which wire/string. Mark one of the ends with a sharpie marker at the end of the wire. Doesn’t need to be a big mark, just remember which color goes to the mark. It would make it much easier, especially with the memory wire.😊 LOVE this video ❤
That's such a fantastic idea!!
The closed or any jump rings ( metal) the company’s you buy from are they tarnish resistant? Very important to me. I make lampwork glass beads and sell. I find metals from local craft stores are junk and tarnish very fast. Thank you. Never tried this style. Wow love it tons. All I need is some different jump rings ( I mostly make elastic bracelets) so want to try soft flex I need colored wire oh my. Oh and a magic crimp tool 😂
I'm not sure exactly how tarnish resistant they are. I don't make my jewelry to sell, but I haven't noticed any tarnishing on things I've made earlier. I love Softflex beading wire (and craft wire!) and use it for most of the things I make. They don't even have to pay me, I just love using it and am really happy to recommend it to folks!
Beautiful beads. How can I get those teal box of beads I think you said the were Sams beads. Thank you
Yes! Those were from the Winter Wanderer Sam's Bead Box. I just checked on their site & the box extras for the individual beads are sold out, but you can buy one of the extra boxes (comes with everything else too) from Sam's Bead Shop samsbeadshop.com/pages/dec-23
Wow thank you so much. I greatly appreciate this information.
I love storing my beads in individual containers but where do you store them all?
I have some shelves they get kept on.
Did you get the beads and how much?
Love all of the Goddess bracelets. What brand of crimp pliers are you using ?
They're Beadsmith brand amzn.to/48uUP2l
I don't use elastic on my bracelets.
Great tutorials! What is the name of the blue wire you are using? Thanks
The dark blue is Blue Lapis color medium beading wire from Softflex. softflexcompany.com/soft-flex-beading-wire-medium-diameter/
@@BekitoBurrito thank you!
?? What are the sizes for the soft flex wire. ?? I could not find it.
The softflex beading wire I used is the medium size. I also used some softflex craft wire & I used 22gauge craft wire.
Couldn’t you have just used the smaller size jump ring on the end that’s so loose?!
I apologize in advance as you may have been asked this question so many times, where did you get your mat?
I got it from Amazon! Hobbyworker Bead Mat and Board: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BWHCQKTP/?&_encoding=UTF8&tag=bekito0d-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=ccbad6ba39ce993a7250b3bf571d3e0e&camp=1789&creative=9325

@@BekitoBurrito Thank you!
New to the channel. Where are we getting these bead boxes?
These were all from different bead subscriptions, except for the Softflex design kit, that one is not a subscription but it might as well be because I buy it every month. I put links to each subscription and how to sign up in the description.
Where did u buy ur bead boxes from plz

You can do everyone a nice surprise ❤😮
I saw tge brigerton necklace you made😮❤❤❤...beauty...go gril..
Hello to your son...❤❤❤
That's a great idea!
Do not see anything
What is up with the noise as you talk. Man I can't hardly watch your videos now for that noise. Hope you fix it I enjoy watching you create.
I'm trying to figure out what noise you're hearing in this video, but I can't hear it even with the sound up. Part of this video I actually reshot because my 1st take had a weird buzzing noise in it, but as I said I reshot that so there wouldn't be a horrible noise. I don't have a professional mic or a sound booth to record in, so unfortunately the microphone on my camera will pick up some ambient noise in the room I'm in. I can try to minimize some of the noise a bit more, I'm just not sure how.
Almost sounds like something is turned up to high and interference. It is a high pitch buzzing sound.
@@Flowers3836 I'll keep listening and see if I can find the source, thanks for letting me know what you're hearing!
I’m watching wearing apple AirPods Max and I don’t hear anything. Maybe it’s the quality of your listening device @amandawesley4641
I came here to say the same thing actually, I got about a minute and a half into the video before I couldn't stand the sound anymore. I really wanted to watch these tutorials, but I can't deal with it.
I'm on my desktop with the same speakers I've used for years and I've never had this problem before. I'm not entirely sure what the issue is. I just loaded the video up on my phone and the same issue is there, so it's got to be the video itself, and not whatever device you're using 😔
Why don't you plan ahead ur combinations before ur on camera, we just want to see the tutorial on making different jewelry pieces not ur guessing on everything? 😢
This is a good question, and you'll find in my newer videos I do just that. I had some others that suggested it on this and another long video, and I agree that skipping the design portion (deciding on which beads, which findings to use) lets us get to the making portion so much faster! So, that's what I do now when I do these longer type videos. :)
All I see is yourhand
Love your nails and love your work!!!
Thank you!
So you ignores the beginning? Doesn't fit, and looks like crap. Okay.
And the end of the second bracelet..
I like your video. I like your taste. Would you mind telling me the size of rings to use with the size of beads? Is there a rule, like 5 mm beads use 6mm rings, or is it use rings that are 1-2 mm larger than beads, and are the ring sizes I.D. Or O.D.? Help!! I would very much like to make these.
Jump rings about the same size as the beads seem to give you the most balanced effect, but you can vary the jump ring size depending on what look you're going for. Larger jump rings would allow the 2 beads to sit closer together & you'd get an effect similar to the one I used craft wire and wrapped with. Smaller jump rings will offset the beads from each other and give you a more exaggerated zig-zag look. I don't necessarily think any are wrong, but you may have a preference as to what kind of look you're going for when you make your bracelet.
Gorgeous bracelets! 😍 I really enjoy the goddess bracelets. So pretty but simple as well. I love that you mix your bead boxes together at times. I don't ever see anyone else do that. I am always mixing in items from my own stash. I don't ever copy ideas from others 100%. I always need to make my jewelry a little bit of my own creation. 🙃 😅
I know there's lot of people who get more than one bead subscription, so it's fun to see what I can do with them all together.
Hello.New to your channel.Love the beads and how you done on the bracelets.Thank you.
Thank you! Glad to have you here!
Hi Beki. I am a fellow bearer, jewelry maker and would love to know where you get your small boxes for each subscription?
Beader lol
Most of my jewelry subscription fit into these 15-grid organizers. I've tried out cheaper brands, but those had a tendency to break & so this is the brand I usually recommend: My favorite organizers: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0822FK3ZY?&_encoding=UTF8&tag=bekito0d-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=4b3dab259f06b30a1f741ae6edbbdf6c&camp=1789&creative=9325
Really pretty bracelets! Glad I found your channel. Will you please tell me what tool you are using for crimping?
It's a magical crimper! It works with 2x2mm crimp tubes and is much easier for me than traditional crimping & having to use a crimp cover. amzn.to/3THnMmA
@@BekitoBurrito Thank you! It’s in my cart!! 😀
Where do you get your beads from. Is it somewhere I could get some?
Each of the bracelets in this video came from a different monthly bead subscription box. Some of the companies sell extras, some don't have any more left. ut I subscribe to each of these boxes, and they send me new beads each month. (except for the Softflex kit - it's not a subscription I just always find myself buying it each month because I love the kits!) There are links to either the subscription page for each of these, or where you can find the next kit right in the description for this video. :)
How much do you sell the bracelets
I don't sell jewelry, so I don't have any idea what you'd want to price them as.
Ru you really paying $83 for each box? Why?😮
I am not sure where you're getting that number from. None of the bead boxes I subscribe to are that expensive.
@@BekitoBurrito Yes some of those boxes cost $83 each, maybe you're getting a discount on promoting some companies! 😮
Beautiful goddess bracelets! The method variety was excellent. I like the black wire and the smart way you added wire when needed. Does having the open side of the hook facing inward not bother you? Curious because I don’t make jewelry for myself. Have a Happy New Year. Hello Ellen and Natalie!
The hook is fairly flush with the rest of the bracelet & it's not tight, so I can hardly feel it. Happy New Year Maria!
That's the Dollar Bead Box and bag for December. January Dollar Bead Box and bag is just starting to ship soon.
You're right! I should be unboxing and organizing the January box soon. :)
I wish I could afford all those boxes😩
I love the colors in each bracelet, and it is also a great inspiration for me to do my own. Started asking a friend to do my bracelets just because I wasn't too confident. But with your tutorials I just feel more confident and comfortable to do my own.
That makes me so happy! I hope you enjoy making them!
Very nice bracelets 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖
So much fun, they are all beautiful, thank you 💝
Glad you like them!
Wonderful variety of bracelets to celebrate the new year. You are amazing!
