Hi Cheri, like the look and your how to instructions. But I am half way through making desert sage bracelet and have only 5 white beads left and don't think I will have enough beads to finish the bracelet . Had I known I would have ordered another tube of beads in advance.
Hi! We used 8/0 seed beads from this Artbeads Designer Blend: artbeads.com/jewelry-supplies/artbeads-desert-sage-designer-blend-toho-8-0-round-seed-beads-adb0423/
@@ArtbeadsVideos Size 8/0s are my favorite size. They’re more dainty than 6/0s and STILL easily seen, at least for me. The 11/0s make for more work to get a project done.
Cheri, Thank you for the tutorial. I'm curious as to why you would do it one direction if you have an odd number of beads and the other way if you have an even number.
Hi Pat, the instructions that come with the Endless Loom suggest changing directions in this way so that the needle direction is correct. You can always turn the loom around and weave away from you, if that's preferable.
I have one of these on the way. i also have the clasp you have in the video. Since I have never done this before I hope this won't seem like a strange question. Can I use a different clasp? I like the look of ribbon clasps or others.
Hi there. You can use other clasps on this loom, as long as they can be stitched onto your end pieces at the beginning. However, we recommend starting with the type of clasp shown in the video if you are a beginner. This type of clasp has a low profile and moves easily around the loom as you weave. A bulkier clasp may shift around more while you work. We hope this helps!
I have never used a loom, so I have some questions on closures. Does this style of bracelet always need a clasp or can this loom be used without attaching a clasp? For example, I like to use button and loop closures sometimes.
Hi Sylvia! I think you could do that. You are starting the bracelet on both ends with bead weaving off the loom, so you could attach the button and loop closure in the way you want at the beginning. I hope this helps!
Mind telling us what size beads you are using????? Omg after watching this I would not buy one of those you can attach the clasp after the work is done and it ended up with spaces between making it loose....lol
Hi there. Cheri is using 6/0 seed beads for this bracelet, but you can try other sizes. As the video states, you have to let the piece rest for a while and the threads will go back to its original shape. The loom kind of stretches the thread as you're working, so just let it rest and it will go back to its original state and it won't be loose. The nice thing about this loom is that with the clasp attached at the beginning, you don't have to worry about finishing off threads at the end of your project.
It's because you are essentially finishing the piece before starting it. Once everything is set up on the loom, you won't have to worry about the clasp at the end because it is already attached.
Between your hand being almost off the screen and the subtitles blocking you, I can't see what you are doing. This is the third video of tried to watch on how to use this loom, and none of you have the camera positioned so that you can see what is being done. These videos are as terrible as the written instructions for this loom, and that's saying something!!
Just wonderful. I have trouble working with written instructions so this video is my life saver. Thank you so much,
Eudice
Best instructions for the Endless Loom! Thank you so very much! Can't wait to start mine.
This actually looks easier than trying to secure a clasp to the project near completion. I’m always concerned i wont get it secure enough.
Thank you for this!!! Now I've got to look for my loom since I put it away.
Good morning thank love for the day love

What size seed bead did you use here? Thank you so much for this demonstration. Very helpful👍

Love it!
i love making those bracelets but i dont know where to buy it....
You can find the endless loom here: artbeads.com/jewelry-supplies/-beadsmith-endless-loom-by-deb-moffett-hall-tool-0261/
Is there a way to make the clasp bracelet without the end bead (sideways) and have the clasp just hook to the bracelet?

Donde se consigue ese telar
TBH, I would rather just square stitch my bracelet.
Did you end up putting the last row in or not?? Tell us lol
Hi there! Cheri did not end up adding the last row in, as it would have made her bracelet too tight.
Too complicated....
Seems like a lot of work before you started using the loom.
It's because you are essentially finishing the piece before starting it. Once everything is set up on the loom, you won't have to worry about the clasp at the end because it is already attached.
