Super cute! My 11 year old likes to keep both ends open for all her bead projects too, but she uses “bead buds” or bead stoppers to help her not accidentally drop or lose the other side. They’re amazing for youngsters and I even use them too!
Hi Chica, Thank you so much for doing this tutorial, I was literally wanting to make the beaded cell phone straps. You must have read my mind. I’m so excited to make this and super excited. The ones you made are so beautiful and just love love how they turned out. Just stunning. Tfs 💕💕🌸. Can’t wait to see more of your creations 💕!!
Hi Anna! Thank you for sharing your techniques! Love the colors of the beads and your gorgeous nails to match! Process videos are so awesome for a newbie like me in bead work! 💗 TFS Hugs, Siv
Hey Anna, I’m an ‘old G Serenity Creations viewer. During this video, you showcased beaded watch jewelry that you made. Did you do a video tutorial on it? I’ve been searching through your videos and I can’t seem to find it. When you have a moment please let me know or include the link in your reply. Many many thanks!
Ohmygosh I am so sorry I missed your msg from moons ago ughh! I don’t believe I did a tutorial on my beaded watches but I know I made one showing them but I have no idea what video it was sorry about that. I don’t have any more watch faces for beading or I would make one showing how I make them. Thank you for sticking with me through the years much appreciated. Crafty hugs, Anna
thank you so much for the sweet comment! I made that pokie tool awhile ago, isnt she adorbs! I was super happy to find a yellow mickey head. Crafty hugs, Anna
Finally lol I found your channel again. When I first started my jewelry journey I watched your videos and learned so.much from you. That was about 1year ago. I wanted to thank you for sharing your designs and creations with all of us and mostly me .🤗 I enjoy watching you and listening bc you have a very soothing voice plus I've really learned alot. So thank you so much . I will be watching🤗❤
Ohmygosh Syndy, can I just say this was the sweetest comment that I woke up to❤️❤️❤️ thank you so very much for your kind words it truly makes my heart so happy. Thank you for finding me on youtube 🥰🥰🥰 big crafty hugs to you,
I love the beads you use. Can you pit something in your description as to the details for purchasing beads like these or similar to these. The name of the beads, the type of cords etc. Appreciate it
The glass beads are beautiful, but I wonder if acrylic beads would be safer for a phone. Do they hit up against the screen and scratch it and aren't they a bit heavy?
Thank you for stopping by and watching my video I appreciate it. Are you talking about how is use the pokey tool to make the knot closer the bead? If so, then I use that technic with a couple other things I make.
I love this! I recently upgraded my iPhone to a 14+ and am going to make some of these! I have a bead stash that I’ve been collecting for years and am trying to reorganize. Finding all kinds of goodies in the process! Do you have a tutorial for the watch charms? I’d like to make some of those, too! Thanks for the tutorial!❤️❤️❤️❤️
So that’s how you hang the “case holder phone thingy”!!! 😂 Genius!!! Also the tip using the pokey tool to get the knot close to the bead…Genius!!! I love learning new things that make your life easier!!! TFS!!! 😀
I also like to watch the process from start to finish but also, you are just peaceful and kind and calm. Funny sometimes too! I will put you on, even if I'm never going to make a paper project or vintage glass project etc. I just enjoy your "company" in my ear while I'm working. I have other channels too, like for cooking or just being a mom stuff, that I like to listen to too, even though my kids are grown and I'm never going to cook like them. hahaha. Anyhow, I just wanted you to know that your tutorials or unboxing videos are more than what you think they are to some people.
OHMYGOSH your comment made my heart so full !!!!!! :-) I am sending big hugs your way, that so made my day you have no idea. Amazing how kind words can just really take away the ugly in a day LOL!!! Again, i thank you and appreciate you taking the time to write me this amazingly sweet msg. Crafty hugs, Anna 🙂
Oh my goodness I need to make one I still need to do the one for my watch as well ...these are so lovely and who doesn't like to pretty up things lol 😆 tyfs 🦋💜
Hello Rita, thank you so much for your sweet comment. I sell my phone straps for $12-$20 dollars depending on the beads I use. They don’t take any time to make so I don’t worry about charging for time making it. I just want to double what I pay for in materials. I just opened an Etsy store and that is one of the things I will be selling. I hope that helps! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for your comment and as for the fishing wire it wont wrk because of all the knots you would tie and you would need to burn the ends, Hmmmm maybe you could use crimp beads instead of the knots? if you are ok with seeing them or you can put crimp covers on those? I prefer the cording because it is super flexible. If you try it please let me know if it works out. Crafty hugs, Anna
So sorry to barely be seeing your question. You could use fishing wire but those get kinks in them that you cant fix so it is much better to use the multi strand string. Nothing lasts forever but that is much more durable and keeps its shape better. Again i apologize for the major delay. Crafty Hugs, Anna
Hi Anna. I watched this video when it was first posted and I'm just now making one of these. I was just wondering how you came up with the measurements. Is there a particular reason for this length? Just curious 🤔
Hello Lynette, I had originally got inspired by one that I bought from T.J.maxx so I bought it and used the same measurements as that one. It totally doesn’t have to be that length but in order to fit your hand in and hold the phone it has to be longer. If you chose to do it shorter then it will be more of a decoration for your cell phone.
@Serenity Creations oh thank you for that Anna. I'm making one for my sister and I wanted to tell her what it was for beside just a decoration. Hope you great day and happy valentines day!
Thank you so much for showing us! Your way is so much easier than others that I have seen! I love these beaded cell phone straps! Great Tutorial! I love seeing your beading Tutorials! Crafty Hugs!💖💖💖
Sorry the major delay in response i have missed a few questions on this video but I get most of my beads from Hobby Lobby along with the string. My tools you can find those anywhere Hobby Lobby included. Michaels sometimes has great deals on beads but i think Hobby Lobby is much better. Crafty Hugs, Anna
I am barely seeing this question so i apologize for responding 100 years later ughhhh LOL!!! I made that pokey tool and i did show a tutorial on my channel and I know many girls have done it as well. The Mickey Head i got on Amazon a very long time ago and the pokey tool piece Hobby Lobby sells those in a 2 pack. I am thinking by now you found many tutorials to help with making one. Again, I apologize for the delay in response. Crafty Hugs, Anna
Oh my goodness I seriously Love both the cellphone straps and the watch charms!
Wow Amiga! Just GORGEOUS!! I will have to try to make one for my phone so stinking adorable!! Tfs hugs 💕💕💕
I love these! Thank you for explaining all the steps, I can't wait to make some 🤗🌸

@@afallas72 you are so welcome. I truly meant the words I said. Have a wonderful and blessed day 🥰
I love the beads you use. Can you pit something in your description as to the details for purchasing beads like these or similar to these. The name of the beads, the type of cords etc. Appreciate it
Love this video, so simple! 🙂
The glass beads are beautiful, but I wonder if acrylic beads would be safer for a phone. Do they hit up against the screen and scratch it and aren't they a bit heavy?
Super cute ❤❤❤
Love this video. I gonna make one with letter beads. So cute!
I like your knot a lot better. Pretty! Do you use that knotting system with bracelets too?
Thank you for stopping by and watching my video I appreciate it. Are you talking about how is use the pokey tool to make the knot closer the bead? If so, then I use that technic with a couple other things I make.
WOW! So pretty!!

Do you have a tutorial for the watch charms? I’d like to make some of those, too!
Thanks for the tutorial!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love your video. Very well done. Thank you.
You do such a fantastic job ❤
These are so beautiful. I thought the one that Alexis used on Schitt's Creek (where I first saw one) was a single strand? Is this possible?
So that’s how you hang the “case holder phone thingy”!!! 😂 Genius!!! Also the tip using the pokey tool to get the knot close to the bead…Genius!!! I love learning new things that make your life easier!!! TFS!!! 😀
Ahhhh thank you so much girly!!!! I appreciate you! LOL! Crafty hugs, Anna

Thanks for the name of cord you was using! I ordered it and it’s perfect for seed beads!
Those are beautiful!! I’m going to have to make them for my friends now. 🙂
Hey Anna. Super duper cute. Thanks for sharing. Ana
Heyyyyyyyyyyy Chica!!!! How are you doing? thank you so much for cruzing by my channel and showing some love. Crafty hugs, Anna
I love the S-lon thread and this such a great and cute idea. You can make bracelets and necklace with the S-lon cord thread.
so pretty !
Thank you for this tutorial. I love this and will make some soon.
Wait As I continue to watch your video, I realize that you made charms for your watch. Love that.
I love these!!❤
So, I love the straps, 😍 but the scissors 🙆🏻♀️ love them!!
Hello my friend. I love your video. How much should we charge for a phone strap? I know it all depends on the stones. Any ideas?
Hello Rita, thank you so much for your sweet comment. I sell my phone straps for $12-$20 dollars depending on the beads I use.

Hi Anna! I have so much fishing wire, do you think I could get away with using that? I'm soooo happy to see that you have a bead project up!! xo
Thank you so much for your comment and as for the fishing wire it wont wrk because of all the knots you would tie and you would need to burn the ends, Hmmmm maybe you could use crimp beads instead of the knots? if you are ok with seeing them or you can put crimp covers on those?

😘
Finally found a video I can relate to ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much, I truly appreciate hearing that. Crafty hugs, Anna
What string do you use?
what kind of needle is that that you’re using when you’re pulling the knot close to the bead
So pretty.
You can get glass beads so so much cheaper over in America. Shame the UK isn't a cheap place to live. But I guess you get what you pay for 😊
Ms. Anna
where did you get the pokey tool from?
Hay would fishing wire be a good thing to use ? I love ur the colours xx
So sorry to barely be seeing your question. You could use fishing wire but those get kinks in them that you cant fix so it is much better to use the multi strand string. Nothing lasts forever but that is much more durable and keeps its shape better. Again i apologize for the major delay. Crafty Hugs, Anna

@Serenity Creations oh thank you for that Anna. I'm making one for my sister and I wanted to tell her what it was for beside just a decoration. Hope you great day and happy valentines day!
you can also heat an awl and poke two holes on the side closer to the bottom or get a case that has the holes already
This was a great video thank you so much beads ate very beautiful love your choice of colors ❤
THEOLA
what is the pokey tool
Thank you so much for showing us! Your way is so much easier than others that I have seen! I love these beaded cell phone straps! Great Tutorial! I love seeing your beading Tutorials! Crafty Hugs!💖💖💖
Hihi where do you source for supplies of your beads?
Sorry the major delay in response i have missed a few questions on this video but I get most of my beads from Hobby Lobby along with the string. My tools you can find those anywhere Hobby Lobby included. Michaels sometimes has great deals on beads but i think Hobby Lobby is much better. Crafty Hugs, Anna
Hi Anna..where can I buy your cell phone straps..
You can call FrankGarciaStudio in upland,ca and there is pink and white.
I went to Hobby Lobby this morning and the cord was $11.99 with 40 % off. I couldn't find any that were $4.99 😪
HMMMM maybe mine was a typo? WOOT WOOT LOL!!!! well not to bad with a 40% off it will last forever that is for sure. Crafty hugs, Anna
Does hobby lobby have Swarovski beads??
They used to but now it is Preciosa crystals so I will get them when they are on sale because you don’t get that many.
@afallas72 is
Preciosa crystal's and Swarovski the same thing?
I couldn’t find that cord at Hobby lobby
I couldn’t either I had to find it on Amazon
What did you use for the pokey tool, and can you make a video, for that.
I am barely seeing this question so i apologize for responding 100 years later ughhhh LOL!!! I made that pokey tool and i did show a tutorial on my channel and I know many girls have done it as well.
