So fun!! Definitely want to make a version of it. You are an amazing artist. And a wonderful dancer! Thank you for all you share with us!
Wow, perfect dance! I wish I could do belly dance. Thanks.
Your dancing is lovely!! Thank you so much for sharing your many talents with the world. Your necklaces are beautiful!!💖
Thank you Jessica! You’re so kind! 😊
What sizes 1step looper do you recommend?
Your the only Artisan I’ve seen use the one step looper correctly. Love your style!
Love! Love! Love! This necklace. Your designs are always so beautiful and creative and very fashionable. And man your dance.. what a hoot and a lot of fun are you Toots! You are still young gal!!! Keep it goin!
You've got the moves, girl! Actually, I'm not surprised that you're drawn to the sensuousness of belly dancing. That same sensuous quality is reflected in your jewelry designs.
Never be ashamed of your 1 step looper! I have arthritis in my thumbs and it's a HUGE help to me!
Yeah Bettina. I have arthritis as well. I’m sure you’ve noticed. Mine is an autoimmune type and there is no cure but I’m hanging in there. The looper is an awesome tool and I love using it! ❤️
I enjoyed this dancing and the tutorial. Thank you Luisa. Beautiful necklace.
Thank you! 🙂
Luisa Rules... You Go Girl ... I watched you dance on another one of your videos....And yes you've lost a lot of weight... I'm 60 and I still dance but not in front of anyone unless I've had a few drinks...lol ...Keep up the good work... I've copied a few pieces that you've made this one looks like fun...Now I have to get back to your video...you inspire me...Please keep them coming ...thanks,Jody
Oh Margaret. You’re so kind! Thank you for your nice comments. You made me chuckle about dancing after a few drinks 😂. Thanks for that. 😊
I am enjoying this lesson so much. It was also nice to see you enjoy dancing which is my favorite exercise
Thank you Marie 🙂
Misty Moon Designs you’re welcome
I have a hard time doing anything in front of anyone. I applaud you👏! I think it is cute when you dance. Thank you!
Thank you! 🙂
I enjoyed you dancing Luisa. Your pieces are always so beautiful. Thank you
Thank you 😊
Loved your dance.....also your beautiful pieces...love your storage system.....thanks
Absolutely gorgeous 💗👏🏻💗👏🏻💗👏🏻 Thank you for the tutorial and all your wonderful tips and tricks. This is a great help and inspiration. Your dancing is beautiful, love your free spirit 💫💗👏🏻
L❤️VE the necklace! Also loved the lil dance in the beginning...talent all around! 🙌
Oh Heather. Thank you 😊
I am absolutely blown away 😍. You are so beautiful and very talented 😎. Beautiful dancing and jewelry making and such a soothing voice and beautiful smile 😊. Loved this video 😍🥰
Luisa...great tutorial..very clear and thorough instructions..time consuming but simple..cant wait to get started on my own..THANKYOU so much..i really like how you assume nothing and show us every step...well done my Friend👍❤️
Cheryl thank you so much for your kind words 😊
Hi Luisa, I am new at all this and appreciate your clear and calm instructions. Not done anything yet and just watching and listening. I love everything you make. I love your belly dancing!!! Did that years ago. So happy I found your tutorials. So nice how you share the names of the beads and materials, tools,and where to buy it, which is so very helpful for a beginner. You are so talented and always look forward to your next designs. Thanks for being so nice to share your time.
I'm so happy I discovered your channel! Small channels are more creative and versatile than "big" one... this is lovely and thanks for sharing
What a great video! Love how you arrange your beads, I actually have them set up by supplier and then colors because I somehow remember what beads are from what supplier. Then again I remember the dress I wore to a wedding when I was 9 and I am now 62 😂. Whenever I lay a pattern out, I take a picture of it, so I have an idea, in general what I had in mind. Thanks again for your videos oh and your dancing, I did belly dancing floor 3 years and loved it, but since moving I just haven’t found anywhere I like. Have a great weekend.
I love your idea of sorting by supplier! I have a couple of boxes labeled “Jesse James” but maybe I should add other names. It’s a brilliant idea because, just like you, I also remember where the beads come from. I should try that! After losing my weight, I wanted to go back to my belly dance school but they had to close due to the pandemic unfortunately. I’m hoping when things go back to normal, I can find another school ❤️
I can’t wait to see what you do with May Bargain bead box it was so nice this month. The necklace came out so beautiful! I need more head pins!
I love the May subscription! I’m really enjoying creating pieces. I’ll have a video soon 🙂
I love the "cat eye" beads I can't get enough of them. I have been waiting to make a necklace and earrings with them but after seeing your video I will have some inspiration. I can't wait to see what you do.
I enjoy watching your channel, I have learned a lot in a short amount of time, thank you so much for sharing with all of us. I really appreciate you
Thank you Beth for your kind words! 😊
Thank you for demonstrating the looper tool. I’m learning so much from your videos.
Hi, I enjoy all your tutorials and I learn a lot from you. You dance beautifuly👏👏💃
Thank you Louisa for this beautiful display of colors and teaching this wonderful tutorial.
Thank you so much! You’re so kind 🙂
Misty Moon Designs you’re welcome
This is a GREAT use for bead soup. THANKS!
It’s beautiful…hard but willing to try.
Beautiful Luisa - I especially loved the colour combination, thank you for sharing 💞💖💕
Hi Dear Friend, love, love this video. OK so what is new, I really do love all your work. I had to laugh when I saw you had 2 thumbs down. Like I mentioned in last video where you talked about the the thumbs down; it’s probably just the same 2 disgruntled jealous bods that just cruise around and try to make others as upset with life as THEY are. Sad, sacks!
I have made some of these designs many months ago and just winged it. I learnt so much watching this tonight. I didn’t prep enough, didn’t know how, so I have the knowledge now many thanks to you. I feel like I am achieving my “Luisa Diploma in Jewellery Design”, slowly slowly. Thank you for your gift. My Youngest Grandchild would say “ loves you to the moon and back!” BTW Thanks to your tutoring, our local Art Gallery have asked me to drop in some of my collection. I was so chuffed, and even though it’s extremely quiet down our Main Street (owing to COVID restrictions) I have just been notified that she has sold one of the statement pieces already. Yeh! Ps Loved the dancing. Love and hugs Jenny xxx 💝💝💝
Oh Jenny. You should be very proud of your talent! Like I said in my message, your pieces are gorgeous and I’m not surprised the Art Gallery wanted them and you’ve already sold a piece. Keep up the good work! You deserve all the credit in the world! Thank you for being so kind and for the reassurance. Take care my friend 😊❤️
So pretty! I have always wanted to belly dance - you’re really good at it. Fun to see different organizational styles. I hang many strands from metal shower hooks. Use clear plastic boxes and heavy duty plastic drawer units that sit on shelves. It’s ongoing!
@Jane Thomas...did you say you hand your strands on your shower rod? I'm not making fun or complaining, I was wondering if maybe moisture in the air might ruin your pieces. If not, I might try that myself. It sure would be able to hold a lot. Please let me know how it's working out for you. You didn't say in the bathroom so, well I'm thinking too much.. 😄Thanks
Your videos are always so fun to watch! I wish I could still dance - I have CRPS/RSD in both feet and legs making walking difficult, but it was fun to watch you dance! This necklace is gorgeous! I haven’t been feeling well the last few weeks so I haven’t created anything, but this video inspired me to get back into my craft room! Thank you, my friend and thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with us!
Oh Sharon I feel so bad for you. I was wondering why I hadn’t heard from you. I hope you’re feeling better. I am so glad you were able to go back to your craft room. I know what it’s like to be in that situation. My back spasms finally went away but when I had them, I couldn’t do much of anything. Take care and get better soon ❤️
Misty Moon Designs Thank you! 🙏🏻💕
That came out beautifully.
Truly amazing! I really enjoy your videos where you share your process with us. Taking us into your stash and going through the whole design process was very very helpful for me. So thank you for such detailed tutorials. Keep being you girl!
As much as your goal is to make content for everyone to enjoy you have to realize that you can never please everyone because we are all unique. Remain true to yourself, thats the only thing you have control over.
Thank you Khadie. You’re absolutely 100% correct! I should stay true to myself and continue doing what I love. I know my videos bring value, even if it’s small. I truly appreciate everyone no matter how they feel about each video because everyone is different and we all have different tastes and opinions. Anyway, thank you for your kind words ❤️🌸😊
@@MistyMoonDesigns you're most welcomed
I liked your tutorial, you made an absolutely beautiful necklace. I also liked how you store your beads!
Thank you so much Ninivel ❤️🙂
Wow!!! Mrs. Luisa!!! I love that you love to belly dance!! Me too! I love belly dancing and I'm trying to learn how to use the darbuka! Keep it up! You look great! The necklace tutorial is fabulous! I want to try and make this too. I might try it in holiday colors like Fall and Christmas just to see how they would look put together. I just learned how to make a bead soup bracelet so these would be a great paring of similar colors and beads. Thank you again! Keep dancing and be happy! Enjoy your weekend too! 😊💖🙏🏻🌹
Enjoyed the dancing🤩 beautiful necklace🤩🤩💜
Thank you 😊
Wow,amaising. You are so graceful,love it
Thank you Ludmila!
Girl, you know that you are great, I love watching you dance as much as I love watching you make jewelry and showing us the pieces that you make each month. I took belly dancing but I could never move like you. Keep up all those wonderful moves. Watching your channel is a joy!
Oh Knutokie..you’re so kind! Thank you for your nice words. ❤️🙂
I love you dancing!!!
Beautiful inspiration, I enjoyed watching, I did enjoy your dancing, that's how you keep your shape! Thank you for the ideas!
Isabel thank you! You’re so kind ❤️
Beautiful! Such a great idea. Thanks for sharing 🌷
Thank you Linda! 😊
You are just a beautiful cosmic positive Ray of sunshine ❤🪄👑 love your video and channel and art and most importantly, your energy🪄👑❤
Oh my goodness, I’m only a year late watching this but I love it. Thank you for dancing, it’s always nice to see your other talents. Super cute kitty!!
It’s funny how a bead changes appearance once its in place. Those flower beads were not something I would have purchased, but once they were part of such a busy piece, they added interest to the cluster really well. That looked absolutely beautiful when it was finished 🤍
Cluster jewelry is one of my favorite, designs fir earrings, necklaces and bracelets, thank you for your work
Thank you for sharing! I'm new to beaded jewellery making and have been wondering how cluster necklaces are made.
Love you dancing and you're jewelry. Tfs
Thank you 😊
Is the one step looper like a one size fits all wire. Or are there different loopers for all sizes of wire? This is such a beautiful necklace. I'm also wondering if it would look as good as a longer necklace? Like say a 28 inches in length?
Thank you 😊
Go Lou! That really came out nice!!
Thank s Ellie! Are you friends with my sister? She always called me Lou! 😊
You also use you crippling pliers like I do. I’ve not seen any one else use them this way. They say great mind think alike. 😀 💐
Always beautiful and inspiring! Thank you💝
Ohmg Luisa you're so cute and beautiful 🥰 I Love U for all you do
With this necklace can you dig through the bead soup we seem to collect for some of the beads?
Your moves are so lovely and fluid. I dance sometimes too (not as well as you, but I try.lol
Your dancing was so cute! Did you make your outfit?
Love the tutorial! Beautiful
Thank you Nicole! 😊
💃🏼 This is one of my favorite types of necklace!
I’m so glad Twyla. It’s one of my favorites also. I love making them and wearing them! 🙂
OMG! Beautiful and not hard either.
Lovely dancing and necklace, thank you
Music and dance are a joy, my partner has danced with me to a street musician, when a particular songs are played, much to my daughters embarrassment, we don’t care, anyway she embarrassed me enough when she was a sulky teen not the mother of twins she is today. Your jewllery work is wonderful aswell
Aww…thank you for the lovely comments. I love to dance! And I especially love belly dancing! 😊
You go girl!!!! Do that dancing
You should just do a video showing us the dancing moves... I'd love to learn how to dance like that... cool... Nice necklace design as usual...
Thank you for your kind words Nancy. I have actually thought about a video showing stretches and exercises for the crafter. I would like to take advantage of my fitness background but dancing sounds great too! 😊
Hi, could you do a video showing how to do flat rounder beads...like the round flat f/w pearls and coin type beads and do the pin so that they don't spin around? That's one thing I've never quite figured out. thank you.
Yes! I think that will be my next tutorial. Stay tuned ❤️😊
Oh my gosh that was so beautiful! Dance some more...lol😂😂
😂😂😂 I only danced once on UA-cam because I got some criticism. So I decided not to dance again. 😂😂😜
I love everything about your channel. I appreciate you 🥰
Thank you so much!! 😊
I went to a couple of belly dancing lessons and it is so hard! You are terrific! ❤
It’s extremely difficult! I practiced for about 10 years and still couldn’t do a lot of the moves correctly 🙂
Thank you so much for sharing your design ideas Luisa! Where did you find the wood bead trays that you work on? I can't find them any where.
Hi Renae. That’s the Beadsmith bead tray. I love it and have at least 6 that I use for works in progress. You can find it on Amazon. Here’s the link; Beadsmith BMT17 Bead Tray, Black www.amazon.com/dp/B002TIS8BY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_QIZYEbZG38JQW Make sure you purchase the foam inserts as well.

@@MistyMoonDesigns Thank you very much!
It's like a flowing waterfall. Just beautiful :)
❤️
Very pretty dance. You look amazing.
Thank you so much 🙂
You are too organized. 😄. Just joking. I love it so much. You make me. Want to rethink how I'm organizing my own supplies. Wow...you do such a great job. BTW you're a great dancer. Always looking forward to your creations. Bless you!
Lol…thank you Cleola. I never used to be organized but I’ve realized through the years that my creativity flows better when my workspace isn’t chaotic. Now and then I still slip but usually it’s when I’m rushed. I love to dance and was planning on doing more on camera but I was met with negativity when I published this video. So I stopped 🙂🌺🌼🌸
It's your channel you do what you want. If someone don't l like it, the they should go elsewhere. Keep dancing, smiling, head up even higher
Grazie per le belle idee che ci dai
Luisa..Loved the Dancing..gotta make myself stop watching mid video even though i don’t want to ..I collect things throughout my day to do much later in evening when my world is quiet..today a card from a friend...a new tea...and your video...enjoy Ladies will be back later❤️
Your a busy lady 🙂. I haven’t forgotten your earrings. I’m still waiting for a shipment of flower tassels from Etsy 🙂
I am busy...its nice when I can have a day home...I’m looking forward to my earrings but seriously..not in a hurry, so don’t worry about it, I’m not.
Какая КРАСОТА 🌸🌸🌸💖💖💖
Nice dancing. I have no sense of rhythm but love watching people dance.
Thank you Mary. My dance technique is not as good as it used to be but I’m not ready to give it up just yet 😁
Misty Moon Designs never give up your passions. Our passions keep us young!
Love this! It's so pretty and lush. The only pliers you didn't list in the description section are the ones I'm wondering about -- the short nosed round-nosed pliers. Love your dancing! Go you!
You’re right! How did I miss them? Let me see if I can find them on Amazon and I’ll add them to the description. ❤️
I just added the link in the description. They’re not the exact pliers but very similar. They no longer sell the ones I have....I purchased them years ago but they’re basically a multi task plier with a short round nose. 🙂
@@MistyMoonDesigns Found the link! Thanks so much!
Can you tell me where you got the storage containers that you use to store your beads by size? I have to shop online and can't seem to find anything that looks like the size of yours. However, I'm not sure about the size of yours because the videos distort the actual size. I like the way you store your beads. It makes sense to me.
Hi Sharane. They’re the Sterilite boxes - 11 x 1.63 x 2.75 inches. Here’s the Amazon link:

@@MistyMoonDesigns Thank you. They didn't look that big. Good to know. Thanks for the link. You are such a creative person!
Thank you! Yeah...they’re about the size of a shoe box. Maybe a little smaller but they stack nicely. I started out with just a few and then had to quickly buy more. It’s amazing how quickly beads and things accumulate no matter how hard I try to use them up! 🙂
I enjoyed this entire video including the dancing. You inspired me to make this necklace and I hope it turns out as beautiful as the one you made.
Thank you. I’m sure your necklace will be lovely ❤️
How do you separate your beads
Hi Carrie. Are you asking about the storage?
Hi Carrie just found you I love your work I am not very good on tablet how do I get your work to come up all the time ❤️
Hi Misty, ty for sharing the spring necklace. Question what is that bead board I think where can you find it at an what is name of it? Ty also what is the padding that is in there too ? Ty
