    Thank you so much for the most "detailed" tutorial for knotting pearls I have watched! I love that you use several pearls with knots at each end, to increase durability. Some tutorials I've watched only go back through one pearl and that doesn't seem that it would make the necklace as strong. You are a born instructor. Hugs, M.D.

      Great tutorial. I usually find that key steps in any how-to videos are “obscured by fingers” but this is really well set up and zooms in on tricky bits. Thanks!

    I've been knotting pearls off and on for several years, usually only once or twice a year. Because I can be forgetful (I'm 76) I always check for a video to remind me of the beginning and ending using french wire. I have to say that this is the best video I've found (and I've watched a bunch!). It's just what I need to kick-start my memory when knotting pearls. Thank you so much.

    I inherited a string of pearls from my sister who passed away in 2016, but haven't been able to wear them because they were broken. Thanks to your wonderful tutorial - I have just completed knotting them successfully and can finally wear them.

    My grandma was a jeweler and when I was 13 she taught me how to do this. I’m now 29 and when she passed away earlier this year I ended up with one of her broken pearl necklaces, and the idea was that I could fix it to remember her but I realized I needed a refresher. This tutorial is perfect, I’m in the process of re-stringing the necklace right now and soon I’ll be able to wear it!

  • @dnllmaurer1
    @dnllmaurer1 2 роки тому +3

    The absolute best tutorial covering the professional method of stringing & knotting pearls or beads. Every detail is clearly explained as the demo shows each step in the process. No extra chit chat & no missing oversights, just straight to the point. All the essential information is provided, complete from start to finish. It also includes a brief overview of the parts to better understand how the pieces fit together. A comparison of various fresh water pearl types, a description of thread size in relation to diameter of the drilled center, selecting a clasp style, purpose of French wire & special adhesive to secure the end knots. I enjoyed every bit of this well planned presentation & I'll return to purchase supplies. Thank you for sharing your expert knowledge & passion for creating beautiful jewelry!

    The best tutorial video I have found for Pearl knotting with a single strand of silk. Very clear instructions and helps that it is so close up so you can see the detail of what you are doing. This technique with the tweezers gives consistent knots right close up to the pearls. I've just tried it to make a bracelet with great results! Easy to do once you get the hang of it. Great instructions for finishing the ends neatly and securely too. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and explaining everything so carefully!

    This was a fabulous tutorial. I have sat and watched a number of videos on pearl knotting and this is the only one that actually got through to me of how to do it! I went from start to finish without a mistake and the pearls look very professionally done. Thank you, thank you. :)

  • @ireneclark1217
    @ireneclark1217 Рік тому

    Thank you so much. My pearls broke some years ago and I had them re strung at the jewellers. I wasn't over impressed as one of the pearls hadn't been knotted correctly and moved about 3 or 4 mm over time. They have recently broken again at the French wire. I decided that this time I would 're strung them following your video. I used a dressmaking pin to get the knot close to the pearl as my tweezers were not like yours. I'm really pleased with the result. It may not be perfect, but a much better job than the jewellers did. Like all things in life, it takes practice. Thank you so much.

    I've just completed my first try at re-stringing my pearls and found your demonstration extremely easy to follow. I am very pleased with the results. I have saved myself a lot of money and I have a better string of pearls because I only discovered recently that they had NOT been knotted by the jewellers (supposedly a professional!) for re-stringing as they were originally. So as you can imagine, I am so glad that they didn't break! Now, thanks to your excellent video I won't have to worry now. Thanks a million!

    I’ve only knotted one strand of pearls . It was in a class. We used lobster claw clasps a clam shell connection w/glue and a jump ring. Everything was fine but there was a successful explanation on how to tighten the knots. We used a pin to slide the knot up to the pearl. Your use of the needle tweezers makes it much easier to understand.

      @bcook7383 Рік тому

      Yes, pay close attention to the part where she explains about the tweezers sliding towards the pearl--I didn't pay attention at first and experienced some frustration with knots that didn't quite sit flush. Rewatched it and voilà! She explains it exactly, and I was able to finish the necklace with no other problems and end up with a very professional-looking string of pearls. Thank you!

    A friend from church came to me with a beautiful freshwater pearl necklace she got many years ago- the thread had broken and she knew I did custom beaded jewelry and repair. I'd never done a nice pearl necklace so was a little daunted. But your tutorial had exactly the information I needed! From what kind of thread (silk) and size to the exact logistics and mechanics of how to tie the knits in between.
