I love watching. I was introduced to beads by my granny at a young age!
❤️❤️
I LOVE my one step loopers. Just over a week ago I bought the 1.5mm and loved it so much I bought the 3mm the very next day lol Six bracelets and 5 necklaces later assembled same as yours (never used a single eye pin either) and no regrets. I love how you added a pendant to yours and I just might do that with one or two of mine now. I also bought them because of my arthritis and wish I had years ago. Take care and stay safe. ☺♥
Love all your work, your artistic eye is awesome!! There is one more step to the one step looper.. If you'll grab the bead before you pull it off and push it over it closes the loop for you so you don't have to manually do it with a pair of pliers.. I saw somebody do it when I UA-camd how to use my new Looper when I got it..
Good to know! I will have to try that!! Thank you for the tip!
Thank you for sharing that information.
Thanks!💝
push it over how and where would i find the video you are talking about
I started making jewlery 4yrs ago. I have carpal tunnel and arthritis, Neuropathy and sciatica. I love making jewlery.
I know I have RSD/CRPS in both hands, Trigger Thumbs and wrist nerve damage. This would take me a week at least. I really wish I started this at a young age. I’d be great by now and would have been able to sell quite a lot. It’s good for you to learn young because it’s always something you can fall back on if you need a side job or a full job selling. It’s so nice to be able to make nice things for people too. 🩵🙏🏼
Thank you so much for posting this video I’m recovering from chemo and have neuropathy in my hands and fingers so it was so nice to see there’s a tool to use to make the loops. I enjoyed watching your videos so much inspired me to make some jewelry which I haven’t done in years since high school where I learned when I attended a music and arts high school. I. had crutches so in place of gym classes I had art and music classes. I am looking forward to again making jewelry. I subscribed.
I have the one step looper, and I was thrilled when they came out with it! I also have arthritis in my hands, and It was to the point I stopped making link necklaces. I love the beautiful long necklace you made, and Goldie is just a sweetheart!
It is the best tool and I totally forgot I had it! It would have made my Y necklace a lot easier! Thank you so much for watching!!
I just bought the 3mm one step big looper! Thank you for your video! Lovely necklace!
Botswana agate is one of my favorite gemstones. And everything goes well with blue . So I love it and thank you for sharing. 🤗💖
Just a quick tip: when using the loopers if you dont hold the bead or wire on the left side of the looper you will get a better loop. learned this the hard way! lol
Thanks for the tip!!! 🥰💕
And facing the same way Awesome 👏👏👏👏
I have found that the hole on the right side is higher than where you would hold the left side with the bead so when u squeeze the loop is not closed or the wire is a little misshapen. Maybe this is on purpose
Neat! I have and love all 3 sizes of looper but I don't have any of those multi head pliers, I think that those would be a good thing to have so I'll have to look around and see which ones I like best. I find that it's easier to open and close jump rings if you grip it with the side of the pliers and not the tips, less chance of it twisting like it did in this video.
Yes, I will need to purchase myself
Thank you, I have the original looper, but didn’t know it came larger.
They are so handy!!
What a great 👍🏻 color combination with the turquoise crystals! You used the “boring” stones from this month’s BBB and turned them into a beautiful necklace! Congratulations 🎈🍾🎊🎉! Your dog 🐕 is just toooooooo sweet!
Awww thank you, Helga!! 🥰💕
Awesome puppy girl!
🥰🐶🥰
Here 3 years later and enjoying this. Have become home bound and want to learn new skill to have good use of time. Watching this I might get brave about neck,ace!!!! Thank you!!
You have the most adorable puppy dog!!
Love your pup!
Thank you for that, much appreciated excellent demonstration!
Thanks. I was trying to figure out what to make from this box. Just saw a video on how to make headpins using this tool!!! So excited to make this necklace
This is gorgeous!!
I love the color combination. It is so beautiful.
Thank you so much!
Thank you very much for this tutorial, very helpful. Wishing you all the best in your jewellery making adventure 🌷😻
Thank you! 😊
Very pretty,and I love the looper it is so handy. 🤗
I too love my Looper. Using the 40% off at Hobby Lobby makes it more affordable. Love the necklace.
Thank you!!
Brittany, Love your necklace. You can't go wrong with turquoise and Botswana agate. Thanks for sharing your design with us.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
I love this one! I'm inspired to go and make something similar, because I totally have all the pieces to do one ❤
Do it! You’ll love it!
You can use the piece that is cut and put it back into the Looper and make more pins from the scrap piece. Just put it in and line it up at the part that cuts and it will make a loop from the straight end. I did this yesterday and it worked amazing
Hi I recently discover your channel and you have inspire me to create new things even though is one of a king . I love your color combination talent. I definitely I will buy the looper.
I love the necklace , it is very nice and beautiful. It is very lovely color, I love beaded chain necklace. I will make it. I love your dogy. Thank you for your time and sharing it.
Love this necklace. So beautiful. ❤
Thank you! 😊
Great learning experience. Thanks for sharing. 👌💞✌💕
Thank you for sharing how to use a one step looper ❤
Love the Necklace it's very cute!
Thank you!!
You make so many pretty and awesome jewelry .
Thank you so much! 🥰💕🥰
I love the necklace and you. Very fun and informative.
Oh thank you!
I just boughtbthec1 step looper. I been playing with it and i love it. I also have pain in my left hand and this really helps.
I am new to jewelry making and your chanel really has helped me.
Thank you.
Nicely done. Great colors and put together well.
Thank you very much!
Thank You for showing me this wonderful tool. I’m learning so much. Everyday there something new to learn. 👍
You are very welcome! Thank you for watching!
Been making jewelry several years and never had one. So I'm going to invest now that arthritis has begun. 😮😊
Beautiful
Excellent. Thanks so much I needed a review on the one step looper. Awesome. Love your designs. ❤
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for showing how to use the looper! I have been on the bubble about purchasing one and was struggling with some eye pins when I started to watch🤗Great timing Justification for having to stop in at hobby lobby tomorrow after work😷Thank you for sharing !!!!
LOL! You're welcome! I always love helping others shop!!!
Turquoise.Street I just started playing with it and hands down worth every cent minus my 40% coupon 😉 now planning to buy one of each size - I bought the 1.5 mm to start👍👏
Thank you so much for showing me step by step how to use the one step looper, I have one but have been intimidated to use it. I think I will make a piece today!
Glad it was helpful!
Great idea for using miscellaneous beads and a matte finish pendant !♥️⚘
I just started buying rolls of wire and cutting it. Most of the jewelry I make is like yours and I use lots of head pins which is quite expensive. It is so much cheaper and I can control the gauge
It s cheaper to buy rolls of wire. I have been making jewelry for about 7 years. Your wire makes a big difference in whatever kind jewelry that you are trying to make. I learned that the hard way.
Great tutorial. I will use this when I make a necklace with loops. 😍
Can’t wait to see!
I just went on JoAnn's online and with their 50% off coupon purchased the same looper you have for 17.49. Yippee! Thanks, I'll finally have one! lol I also purchased 10 spools of upholstery thread to make bracelets. :o)
That is awesome! Happy beading!!
This necklace is beautiful :)
Love it, thank you!

Hi Britney, I new to your Channel. I’ve never seen a demonstration of a Looper before. Thank you so much! ❤️
You are so welcome! I am so glad you found me!! :)

Qué bonito,felicidades y muchas Bendiciones 🙏 para que sigas compartiendo desde México,Saludos cordiales.
This helped me a lot thx ☺️
Awesome! Great inspiration. I love these beaded chain. I think I'll make one tomorrow with the blue and turquoise melon Beads. 🤗 Was watching the new Perry Mason and one of the characters was wearing a beaded chain. Love the looper.
Emma Devost I always thought Castles Mother is a great inspiration for necklaces. I took quite some photos off the screen 😀
Oh! You'll have to send me a screenshot of that, Emma!! I love seeing inspiration on shows!!!
She has a lot of flair!
Wow that is so beautiful
I am new to your channel and I’m a beginner for during making I have made a few things like earrings and necklaces with the beads I have
Love your necklace I use the one step looper I have arthritis as well I have RA it is nice to have. I just have the medium size I need to get the other ones , but I do not go out either.
It is an amazing tool and I can't believe I forgot about it!
What are those tools you are using that has like a double head or a 2-in-1?
Love the necklace too! Subscribing to your channel 😊
Good.
I have been practicing and practicing with the pliers on trying to get the loop down I couldn't get it I was getting frustrated! Thank you very much for showing this tool!
Cool! I was wondering how those loopers worked. My arthritis wrist/finger pain is compounded by a fall I had on concrete while teaching. My wrist has never been the same. Cortisone injections do not help. Pretty necklace! 💖🌷💍💎
Oh no! I literally feel your pain! Hopefully if you purchase one of these it will help! Thanks for watching!!
Hi, I think your necklace turned out beautiful and now I learned something new because I have not made a beaded necklace like that and I do have a one step blooper I think I am going to use it and make a necklace similar to yours. I have to say though sometimes I can’t remember which way to put the Eye pin and the tool LOL.
Yay!! So glad you learned something new!
Love this necklace! Goldie is such a love muffin. What a sweet girl. 💗
Thank you so much!! 🥰💕
So purdy!
Thank you for showing me how to use my one-step looper that I bought months ago. I couldn't follow the instructions/pictures on the packing some how.
Glad I could help! Happy beading!!
What technique would you use for working with a spool of 20 Ga stainless Steele? I’m a super newb. Do I cut any length from the spool to work with that or is there something I haven’t thought of?
Omg I too have mild arthritis and carpal tunnel on my hands, and they hurt to bead sometimes and my fingers hurt so bad as well thanks for showing me this tool
🩷🩷🩷
I have a looper, but learned how to use it better with your video. ❤
Glad I could help!🩷🩷
And all those wasted ends that I threw away. Argh. Lol
Pretty ❤!

Good informative video.
Glad it was helpful!
Did you make the first bead wrapped. ? The brown looking one wire wrapped? It's nice and pretty.
Love the necklace. Just recently started doing jewlery, where's a good place to get focal beads? Feel like that's what's missing from the small stash that I have.
Thank you! Hobby Lobby/Joanns/Michaels have sales regularly on focals! Those are great places to start!!
You can also google bead sales. There are TONS of sites!!! I also get things at that places mentioned above. Oh and don’t forget Walmart in store craft area and they have stuff online too. Good luck and have fun!!
Hi Brittany! Do you keep all of your loops going in the same direction, or does it matter with this kind of chain?
Thank-you for sharing and God bless... 🙂👣
No, I put them in whatever direction!
BTW...Every finding from Hobby Lobby or Joann will tarnish fast. It's only plated, not filled or solid alloy. I always go to a reputable jewelry supplier to get gold or gold filled findings.
Girl I love it dam ur good I love all it creations
😂🥰
Not gonna lie, my one step looper is my best friend❤️
what is the name of the one you ordered and or bought and brand etc..... thanks. dose it hold up to a lot of use? thanks
@@amc5936 I don't remember the brand name but it was the smallest size michaels had when I went in there last, they're kinda spendy but TOTALLY worth it when it comes to having consistant loops and not killing your hands when you're making lots of loops for stuff.
Thank you, Brittany for the tutorial... really nice necklace... now I just need to purchase a looper... may I ask...of all the sizes...which size is most common?...I can start with that one then collect the other sizes as my budget allows...
I started with the middle size... 2.25mm! I hope that helps! If you like making smaller loops, I would choose the 1.5mm.
@@TurquoiseStreet I have no idea what I'm doing...so I trust your expertise...TY! :)
I will have to get one of those looper tools, as I have arthritis also. I did have surgery on my right hand, so I have to be careful not to overdo. Unfortunately, the closest Michael's and Hobby Lobby is 100 miles away (one way), but I do have a Jo Ann's about 30 miles (one way). I'll have to try there with a coupon. It looks like Goldie has the life of Riley. You're probably too young to know what that means. hahaha My two pups are still missing Gidget, so they aren't playing as usual yet. Usually they wrestle and goof off together a lot. Love the rosary-style necklace. :o)
Thank you! So glad you found the tool! Hopefully your two pups will get back to playing soon!!
@@TurquoiseStreet I hope they will be playing soon, too. :o)
You need to go over your necklace and make sure all of the loops are closed before you sell it. Sometimes I have missed a couple
I LOVE the Botswana Agate beads, the colours are gorgeous with the pink, black, grey and white! What sort of One Step Looper would you recommend for someone like me who only wants to buy one pair of them? I like the 2.5mm Looper. Thanks, from Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia
Definitely the middle size! It is the size I reach for most if I’m using mine!
Woww 😄🥰
Hi l am new to your channel and gave a thumps up and subcriped.I ready liked the necklace you made with a tool called, one step looper. A question, can you buy jump rings which don't tarnish? Thanks.
Welcome to the channel!! Thanks for subscribing 🥰 unfortunately plated metals will tarnish. Antique copper, antique brass, and gunmetal won’t tarnish like silver and gold plated will!
When I started making jewellery I used a looper very much like the one you demonstrated but I felt that I couldn’t really call myself a person who makes bead and wire jewellery if I was relying on a quick fix aid. I then learned how to make various loops without the looper, and with practice I’m getting better at it. The other thing with the looper is that the blade that finally cuts the excess wire quickly becomes blunt resulting in poor results. I’m not ‘anti’ them, they have their place, I just prefer to make loops by hand. Lovely necklace by the way.
For those with mobility issues, it may be the only way they can make jewelry. I definitely don’t think it makes their jewelry “less than” or “not real” if someone needs help. I can’t make a wire wrapped loop without regular pliers and that’s just another tool. Hopefully this will give you a different way of looking at things! Thanks for watching!
@@TurquoiseStreet I agree that loopers can make things easier for people with disabilities affecting their upper limbs. I have bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome and an inflammatory osteoarthritis which affects my spine and upper limbs. I’ve used the various sizes of looper to see if it made forming the loops any easier but for me it didn’t because it took too much grip force to bring the two arms together to form the loop and cut it, so the benefit of reducing the stress on the wrist when forming the loop, was reduced, and like in the video, I’d have to use round nose and chain nose pliers to form them in the desired shape anyway. So ultimately for me they didn’t help. I’m very sorry that you felt that I was being dismissive about using them. I can see that I came across like that, I really am sorry. Your jewellery is very beautiful.
I want to get a 1 step looper, just haven't justified it. I can definitely relate to needing a spending freeze, but before I do, where did you get your little clear trays? After seeing your necklace I think you just helped me justify, love your necklace. I always learn something new watching you, just love it!!!!
The tiny clear trays are from dollar tree!!
