Anyone know how to string beads into jewellery?

Question

I would like to know if I need any special tools (ie needles) to make stretchy bracelets and the best way to do this.

Answer 1

bead work is easier if you have a bead board - it has channels in it that you sort the beads on - then you thread them - depends on what you want to use to thread them on whether you need a needle or bodkin. if it is a soft thread you would need something like a needle to thread it through easily.

Answer 3

I buy beads, tools and get online video instructions from Fire Mountain Gems. They offer whole-sale like prices, but for retail customers. Check them out. They also have a gallery of designs you might like for ideas.
