Enjoyed by first visit to Potomac beads and Hagerstown even though my car wouldn't start and had to get a tow company to come and jump it everyone was so kind to me coming back after 1 January 2017 for a second visit can't wait.
Really well done tutorial. Looks really simple, since I already know Peyote. Gonna make a set today for a beaded bead necklace I'm making. Been doing tubular Peyote for some beaded beads. Zipping up a piece of flat sure seems easier. BTW, love the bead mix used on the pre-made sample. When I struggle to get my needle through, I use my jewelry pliers and grab the hole end of the needle to pull through. seems to keep the needle from bending so much or breaking through the needle eye.
Hi I have to ask can I do a toggle with just seed beads, why I asked I've made a bracelet with seed beads but don't have delicas to match. Need your help please as I've never made a toggle & loop before
I follow video tutorials pretty well. This one moved to fast and was confusing. It would have been more helpful if the 11.0 delicas were a different color, just for teaching purposes. I knew that there had to be one more row of delicas on one side, but the video didn't make it clear until the sewing up stage. Would it be possible to film this again?
So I was also saying thank I don't believe some of these are watched 😂 I re watch and go to just what parts I am having a question with thank u very nice I have a lot of fun showing you bead smarts off to my friends and family.
This is so pretty and i would love to use it but the ring keeps coming out wavy no matter how loose i try to make it. :( Absolutely LOVE your videos and i have learned so much, i really wanted this to work.
Potomac Bead Company I've used square beads and peyote stitch, I did the toggle clasp just as you did, same type of beads etc, I am just not seeing how to attach it to make it look good...I love the toggle and clasp I made but I am just not seeing how to attach to make it look seamless or good....what am I missing?
Basically when you are at the end of your project, you just take thread covered by some seed beads, and go through the loop on the toggle, then back to your project. Go through again to be sure it is secure, and you are done.
Potomac Bead Company Thank you so much, I did that and unfortunately when I made the bracelet I was just going to use a button type closure, this toggle made it way to large...I had to remove it....uhhggg, I will make another bracelet to fit it...it is just such a beautiful closure. Thanks for all your help and your tutorials.
ARGH! Stupid Peyote Stitch!!! UGH! Thank you for the very informative tutorial. I finally got my toggle clasp done after taking it apart and starting over several times. This stitch is the only one that drives me crazy! LOL`
Sorry but for a beginner, this video was difficult to follow due to the colors being so closely matched. I think if you would have used two different colors it would have been much easier to follow...
Not a fan of this... I guess I need to see it on a finished project. All I can visualize is a HUGE toggle/loop on the end of a bead project that would not look too great... but I could be wrong.
Thank you Allie. I created a toggle. YUPPEEE
Thanks, Allie. I like the crystal on the toggle connection idea very much!
Thank you so much!
No problem, thanks for watching!
Thank you!! I'm on my 3rd toggle for another bracelet. I have tons of ideas for these toggles. So awesome!!
Great video! Thank you so much! My necklace looks awesome now!
Thank you as well!!
truly happy as I have stopped doing peyote cause I could not get it sit properly this demo has shown me my mistake thank you really enjoy the demos
Glad it helped you, Roselin.
Thank you so much for this video. I am new to beading and found your instructions easy and clear to follow. Greetings from Brisbane, Australia. :-)

That is a very good tip for our other beaders out there Michelle. We would love to see your projects too!

Will be having a go at these ,great video Ali xx
Great work ! Thank very much
Could you use just 11.0 sead beads its all I have for now? Love your video!
Julie Brown instead of delicas? Yes. It may look a bit different, but you can certainly do that.
Thanks doing this tonight.
If I use 11.0 seed beads how many do I need to make the circle and the long thing?
Great tutorial, thanks :-)
Thank you for answering me.

We apologize for this, Lana. We appreciate your keen observation and your suggestion is well-received.

Благодарю
You're always welcome. Thanks for watching :)

+The Scribe are you using delicas or some other seed beads? You probably want the stitch to be very tight rather than loose
+Potomac Bead Company I'm trying it with some other 11/0 beads i had that matched my project.
+The Scribe ok she used 11/0 delicas so that might be the difference.

I tried the delicas and it is beautiful. :) Thanks for such great tutorials!
Thank you so much so sweet
it need to be with size 15/0 seed beads? cant be with 11/0 seed beads?
You can always make changes and try them, but usually for best results, we have given the best size to use.
How do you attach this to the bracelet?
You would crimp to the loop, or if a beadweaving bracelet, just thread into the toggle.

Ok no problem, yes the application does vary, as toggles will tend to be larger, and often work best if used as more of a statement piece.
thank you :) love that

They can actually be made pretty small, and when we do it, we usually make them to match the project.
👍👍👍🌹🌹
look pic nice
