Tilly, I am so happy I found you - your beaded tassels are the most beautiful I have seen, and you make them so neatly with such flair & care. Thank you so very much x
Me too! I wanted beads with a wide hole to string on strips of fabric. BINGO! Cant thank her enough! Red Robin in NC USA (I stole your "red" as one red head to another.)
This is the best straw bead & end loop wire wrap tutorial I've seen. Ty for sharing.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment Georgia! 🌹
Hello from Georgia, US.!! Im so glad I came across your video! I cant wait to make these! They are beautiful!!! I'll be watching for more ideas and to see how you set up your craft room! Im in the process of setting up mine as well! I call it my " spair time " room!! 😊 Love your Bohemian charms!! Just lovely, I'll definitely give them a try!!
Great for Christmas tree decorations
That's a great idea thanks, I think I'll be making some especially for for my tree! :-D
@@TillyDouglas yes it would be wonderful to see Christmas ones and maybe a couple of smaller ones linked on to a longer one xxxx I am sure you would have some fabulous ideas 😍
I can see I'm going to have to make some more videos for these! It sounds like fun!! 😃
@@TillyDouglas I live in Herefordshire ♥️
Just started making paper beads yesterday. Looking for tips and tricks and found your channel. This was a very inspirational video with a whole new kind of beads! I'll definitely give this a try! Thank you so much for sharing 🤗🕊️
Hi Lena, I'm so pleased you enjoyed the video, I hope you have lots of fun with your bead making! 🌹
BEST beading video on here! You dont do a long intro and your voice is so easy to listen to. I like how you jumped right into how to do this. Using straws is a game changer as I need a large bead hole for stringing on yarn, fabric etc. Thank you for telling us about Callie Black's tutorials too. Hope I spelled her name correctly. My ancestors are British so I love having a new "cousin across the pond". Please show how we can actually put a long bead like yours to use. Thank you so much. Robin in NC USA (Subscribed and clicked Like)
Thank You!! My mind is spinning from so much beauty and inspiration
One could make a Boho bead curtain with these beads.
So glad I found your channel. Those are beautiful. I know what you mean. My bedroom looks like a craft room. I'm always crafting something. It's so relaxing and fun.👍😊
One of the best videos I have watched for a long time
Ohh thank you so much Joyce! 🌹
9:56 You could maybe stick one end of the wire into some left over polystyrene packing (that you find protecting items). Even making some thing that could take both the ends so the item was horizontal instead of vertical, if you were concerned about dripping. I used to use polystyrene blocks that I would otherwise throw away, and with the smaller "beads" fix them with a toothpick down the centre, so they could dry without rolling around accidentally. (Those were paper rolled beads, which I then varnished).
Hi! I know this is an older video but I'm just now seeing it and i have to tell you your beads are gorgeous! Simply stunning! I never thought of making them this way. I was always stuck in the paper bead rut, lol. Love these and i must try them! Cant wait to make some of these and watch some of your other videos. I'll be using paper straws so i wonder if regular hot glue will work? I must tell you, i LOVE your accent. I coukd listen to you talk for hours! Anyway, thank you for sharing your talent. See you in the comments! 😊❤
Hi, 👋 thank you so much for your lovely comment! 🥰 I'm so pleased you like my beads and that this video has inspired you... hot glue works great with paper straws, so I hope you have lots of fun making them. 😃❤️
I totally agree with you especially about the lovely accent. My ancestors are British so I feel like family here. Using straws makes for a pony bead size hole which is what Ive been searching for. Theres nothing stopping us now! Robin in NC USA
They look like magic wands. So beautiful and whimsical!
Thank you very much!! 🌹
Hi Tilly, you have to be the best person I've watched doing tutorials!! You take your time to explain everything. I have subscribed and can't wait to watch some of your other tutorials!! Hi from Canada!!! 🤗
Stunning! I love it. I hope I get as good as you at making these. Thank You.
Thank you so much , these are really beautiful! I can’t wait to try making them 🙂
I made some beads today & plan on taking them apart after seeing your video re the glue....I never thought to glue the inside of the bead. Thank you for sharing. Your beads are lovely. Margy
Hi Margy, thank you so much! These are very addictive to make, so I hope you have lots of fun with them! 🥰
Those beads are fabulous. Love all the detail you gave. I think I can tackle it now. Thanks for the inspiration!
Hi Donna, I'm so pleased you like them! I'd love to see them when you make them... Feel free to pst them to my facebook page!
What a wonderful way to make beautiful boho beads! Thank you!😊
Thank you very much Jackie! I just love making them! 😃
Beautifully done! I have a stash of pretty paper straws, never quite knowing what in the world to make with them. This is such a great idea. Thanks for another very inspirational video.
Thanks Crystal! I'm back to making them now after my weekend away, so I'm feeling all creative again :-D
RIP Cali Black. Your beads are so cool. Thanks for sharing your techniques. I'm going boho nuts lately. Hugs, Diana.
Absolutely RIP Cali Black! I’m so pleased you like them Diana! I just love boho stuff... even better when we can make it ourselves hey. 👍😀❤️
Thanks for sharing . I want to try to make some, but I'm not sure what or where to use them. After they are made, do you make them into a bracelet, necklace, or something else?
I would like to know everything you do with them
thanks for tip on pans great help
Tilley,

A great beginning for so many ideas.... love the nail polish
Hi Jennifer, yes there are so many things you can make with them. I'm looking forward to being able to get back in my craft room to make more. 😃
BEAUTIFUL Tilly
THANK YOU ❤😊
Thank you so much Savana! I'm so pleased you like them 😃
Well.... I've just started junk journaling so I want to make a couple of big dangly things to hang off the spine. I can honestly say, yours are the nicest I have seen.
And English hurrah 😀 🇬🇧
So .... Next time I'm in town im off to the works. Brilliant. Thank you.
New subbie Blackpool xx
Thank you so much Erica!! I’ve used some of mine on JJ spines and they look fab! I love making them so I’ll be making more very soon!! 👍👏😍 xx
Beautiful 😍❤️ thank you for sharing
My pleasure 😊
i enjoyed watching make your beads and you have a great sense of humor :D
Thank you very much Pauline, I'm so pleased you enjoyed it! 😃 🌹
Awesome!!!
New subbie...
Just stumbled across your video...Best Boho Yet...
Hey there new subbie 👋 😃 I'm so pleased you like them as much as I do! 😃🥰
Very nice beads and a good tutorial but the self focusing camera almost drives me insane. I hope your other videos don't have this feature because you are nice to listen to and clear in your information.
Yes, I'm sorry about the auto focus, I didn't realise when I was recording it that it was happening, but when I played it back it was awful ... It was driving me mad too so i know how you feel. I won't be making that mistake again :-)
Fabulous!!thank you,!
Very nice as xmas gifts, good work thank you.
Thank you Carolle! 🌹
LOVE watching you do these beads! Gives me so many ideas!
Hi Anne, thank you very much I'm so pleased you enjoyed it! That's how I work with my seed beads when I'm working with bigger quantities, it really is a time saver. 🌹
@@TillyDouglas You are amazing at this! I love the effects and you are so thrilled! I so look forward to doing some when I get the supplies!
I do get a bit over enthusiastic when I'm in crafting mode, I just enjoy it so much! 😂😂
@@TillyDouglas Oh it's great! That is what makes it so much fun to watch! :D :D
What are these dangles used for?
Very creative.
Thank you Anne.
Awesome 🥰
Thank you for sharing ❤️💋 lovely.
You are so welcome! 🌹 ❤️
They are pretty but what do you do with them?
Really enjoyed your video, so lovely to watch and you have given me so many ideas for my own beads, I am not as good as you but working on it. Thank you for sharing take care and kind regards Nikola xxx
Hello Nikola, thank you so much for your lovely comments! I hope you have lots of fun making your own. 🌹 💕❤️ xx
You could make a bead curtain! Sell it. Would be worth a lot because one aspect is a lot of time put into making these besides being beautiful!
That's a great idea Donna, it would certainly look beautiful! 🌹
use on shdalears lighting and han over the door screens
Good idea using the burlap mat. Just found you. Great job.
Thank you very much Doris! 🌹
Very pretty, thank you
Thank you so much Leona! 😊
I love it you do a amazing job
Thank you so much Marina! 😃
When you painted the straw in burgundy, it reminded me of bugs bunny and a stick of dynamite 😂🤣😂
HAHAHA I’ll have to go back and have a look on the video for that!! 🤣😂
@@TillyDouglas )
Does the glue also work with the plastic straws?? No melting ??
Just found your channel, lovey my dear! Love your creations and listening to your accent (well to me any way! lol!!) beautiful :)
Thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰 I’m so pleased you enjoy my videos! ❤️
These are very pretty but how do you use the beads for jewelry?
Thank you, I really love making these! I sometimes attach a chain to either end of the longer beads to make a necklace... Or I use wire to wrap it around for a bracelet... I've used them to make bag/purse charms/danglies... I use them to decorate my dressing table and craft room. I make loads of them and have them just sitting in bowls because they just look so pretty :-D
🎉
Tilly that is just wonderful! thank you so much for the share! im a new subby.
Hi Elaine, I'm so pleased you like them... I'm a little bit addicted to making them at the moment :-D ... Thanks for subscribing :-) xx
do you have pictures of craft room
Yes the camera is making a cranking clicking ticking sound like a clock or timer.
Great video. Hope to see more soon.
Hi Teresa, I'm so pleased you like it! I haven't done any videos for a while because we're having some building work done on the house and I haven't got a work studio at the moment, but as soon as it's finished I'll be making some more videos... I have loads of new videos I want to make :-D
Beautiful!! I just subscribed. Love these
Hi Donna, thank you so much, I'm really pleased you like them! 😃
What kind of camera is that, it keeps clicking when it’s not in focus rather bothersome with the blurry and the clicking noise
Good tutorial. Maybe turn off auto focus though.
Camera phone clicking adjusting during video
What do you do with your finished needs. Very nice video.
Thank you very much! I use them for decorating the spines of my junk journals mostly. I also use them to add t some of my decorative crochet items.
Camera keeps trying to focus and noisy for seconds...🥺
Is thete a way she can set it as fixed focus?
it is because of the difference in the thickness of the wire to the straw when they are closer to the camera.
Really enjoyed the tutorial. Lots of great tips. I’m so obsessed with boho beads. Do you buy your bead caps in bulk? Can you recommend online stores for them?
Thank you so much Lisa! I used to buy beads in bulk, but I haven't for a very long time... I tend to use what I have now and I also repurpose older broken jewelry.
Hi, your work is beautiful but I have never seen Fab Boho, so I would like to know what they are and what they are for, from Italy :)
Hi Paola, thank you so much! Fab is just a shortened word for fabulous... I use these for decoration anywhere that I want a bit of bling. 😃
@@TillyDouglas Thank you for your answer, so it is just a decoration that can be put anywhere, even on clothing and accessories.
I saw your paper beads here ua-cam.com/video/v4FyzDmTD8Q/v-deo.html and they are wonderful, I really like the decoupage ones with the pink and beige paper.
I like to use everything: paper, resin, wire and polymer clay, but I don't have a great technique, I make it up as I go along and I'm still happy with what I do.
You've given me some ideas; I've been keeping the paper of an envelope from a purchase for a long time (years) that has a variegated beige background with beautiful roses in a slightly dark antique pink colour that take you to an atmosphere of the 1800s and romance: here, it's time to use it to make beautiful beads :)).
I would like to buy a paper cutter, on Amazon I don't know which one to get, could you give me some advice so that I can also cut A3 sheets in obliguo? Or in any case a cutter that allows you to make obliguous cuts even with sheets larger than an A4
Thanks Tilly and sorry about my bad English (I am Italian) translated with DeepL translator
HOLA BUENAS TARDES MUY HERMOSO, PERDON ALGUNA IDEA COMO LO PUEDO USAR EN QUE LO USARÍA, DE ANTEMANO MUYYY BELLLLLOOOSSS VALE.
GRACIAS GRACIAS GRACIAS 🙏🏼🙏🏾🙏🏿💋❤️💋❤️💋❤️
Do all low temp glue guns work the same? Stick It is only UK. I'm in the US.
Hi Teresa, I assume they would work the same... To be honest, I really can't tell much of a difference between the hot and cool glue guns.
I have never made any jewelry or beads. I do enjoy your videos. Although you are having a real.problem with your recording machine which is driving me crazy. You really should get repaired.
I know, sorry about that, it was in the early days of making my videos and I had it on autofocus, it drives me mad when I watch it too so I know how you feel!
Whats the pointy brown end clasp thing? Where can I find them?
They are bead caps, you should be able to find them on Amazon or Ebay.
. regarding hot glue I am the biggest fool with it as I burn myself everytime even though I am careful
love the beads, but the auto focus drove me bonkers
ich hätte das video gerne zu ende geschaut. aber das ständige fokussieren der kamer macht mich verrückt 😢
Where do you get paper straws?
Hi Donna, I'm in the UK, and I bought mine from The Works... They are sold on Amazon, or look in your local supermarkets. There are a lot of places that sell them now because they are trying to get away from plastic straws.
Tolles Video aber sehr schlechte Qualität.
What gauge wire is that please? X
Hi Andrea, as far as I remember, this was a 24 gauge wire 🌹
It was 16 gauge, 24 is very thin and soft. I found that 20 was too soft and hard to work with. The higher the number, the thinner it is.
Tilly vous avez terminé la vidéo sans nous montrer comment faire le fermoir du boucle
Your camera blurs in and out once in a while
I know, sorry about that, it was in the early days when I first started making videos and the autofocus was on... I know it's very annoying!
What in the world is going on with the camera?
I know, sorry about that, it was in the early days when I first started making videos and the autofocus was on... I know it's very annoying!
When are you going to make a bra let.
