supply needs!
0:00:07.000,0:00:10.600 Hi this is Julie with Beadaholique.com
and today I want to show you how to make a
0:00:10.600,0:00:12.869 beaded Kumihimo bracelet.
0:00:12.869,0:00:16.869 This here is what we're going to be
making in this video and it is a eight warp
0:00:16.869,0:00:20.269 bracelet and I've added beads to each of the
eight warps.
0:00:20.269,0:00:24.790 The supplies you're going to need for this
project is a ruler to measure out
0:00:24.790,0:00:26.019 your cord,
0:00:26.019,0:00:29.809 you need a glue-on clasp. There's a
little well in there where we're going to stick
0:00:29.809,0:00:30.960 our braid.
0:00:30.960,0:00:34.760 We're going to use some E6000 to glue
that braid in place.
0:00:34.760,0:00:36.610 You need a pair of scissors and
0:00:36.610,0:00:38.340 some bobbins.
0:00:38.340,0:00:41.310 I'll show you how to use these in
just a moment.
0:00:41.310,0:00:43.539 I've got some super lon cord.
0:00:43.539,0:00:49.019 I've got teal and purple and I've got
matching beads here. These are toho seed beads
0:00:49.019,0:00:51.020 in size 8/0.
0:00:51.020,0:00:54.380 I'm going to limit my color palette to two.
It'll make it a little bit easier to see what's
0:00:54.380,0:00:59.260 going on and it'll
make this wonderful spiral pattern.
0:00:59.260,0:01:02.240 And then I need my braiding disk.
0:01:02.240,0:01:06.300 You'll get an instruction sheet in with
the disc when you purchase it. It's not going to
0:01:06.300,0:01:08.130 show you how to do beaded Kumihimo
0:01:08.130,0:01:11.090 but it will show you how to do a bunch
of different braids which you can
0:01:11.090,0:01:14.470 adapt to kumihimo very easily.
0:01:14.470,0:01:18.260 Then last but not least I have
created a little handy dandy weight
0:01:18.260,0:01:19.500 for myself.
0:01:19.500,0:01:21.130 You need to weight down
0:01:21.130,0:01:24.630 your Kumihimo so that your braid is
coming through the bottom here
0:01:24.630,0:01:27.220 which you'll see in a moment. It needs to
be weighted.
0:01:27.220,0:01:28.710 So I had just taken
0:01:28.710,0:01:30.420 this binder clip
0:01:30.420,0:01:35.280 I tied some rat tail around it and then
this weight is actually from my dapping set
0:01:35.280,0:01:37.670 but you can use whatever you have around at
home
0:01:37.670,0:01:39.979 that gives you any really good
0:01:39.979,0:01:41.880 anchor.
0:01:41.880,0:01:45.780 So to begin what you do first is measure
out
0:01:45.780,0:01:47.770 some of you super lon cord.
0:01:47.770,0:01:51.380 For the bracelet I want to make about a seven
haif to eight-inch bracelet.
0:01:51.380,0:01:58.380 So I'm going to measure thirty inches of super
lon
0:01:59.200,0:02:02.000 and this is actually going to give him more
than enough.
0:02:02.000,0:02:04.420 I'm going to cut that
0:02:04.420,0:02:06.360 and I'm need four
0:02:06.360,0:02:11.219 of this color and then four purple because
we're going to have eight warps. So four for each
color.
0:02:11.219,0:02:18.219 So go ahead and measure yourself out all
eight.
0:02:20.689,0:02:24.489 Once you got all eight measured out. I've
got four purple
0:02:24.489,0:02:25.670 and four teal
0:02:25.670,0:02:27.649 thirty inches long each.
0:02:27.649,0:02:29.510 I'm going to tie them together.
0:02:29.510,0:02:32.499 Now we do have another video from
Beadaholique.com
0:02:32.499,0:02:38.079 showing you how to do the basic eight
warp Kumihimo without beads.
0:02:38.079,0:02:42.640 I would suggest going ahead taking a peek
at that video. Maybe trying the standard
0:02:43.879,0:02:47.419 without beads before you attempt it with
beads because the beads are just another
0:02:47.419,0:02:50.579 step and sometimes I find when you're
learning a new process
0:02:50.579,0:02:53.589 it's a little bit easier to go back to
the basic.
0:02:53.589,0:02:57.389 Learn that first and then add on a new
component.
0:02:57.389,0:03:01.379 So I've got all my tails lined up. What I
want to do now is I want to tie a
0:03:01.379,0:03:03.789 simple
0:03:03.789,0:03:07.209 overhand knot
0:03:07.209,0:03:10.790 pretty close to the end
0:03:10.790,0:03:13.719 Just like that so that all my
strands
0:03:13.719,0:03:15.019 stay together
0:03:15.019,0:03:16.329 tug that.
0:03:16.329,0:03:20.879 Just to keep everything
straight I'm going to go ahead and slide
0:03:20.879,0:03:23.979 the tail through the middle and I'm
going to clamp it
0:03:23.979,0:03:25.339 with my weight.
0:03:25.339,0:03:28.389 You don't have to do this step right now
I find this is a little bit easier just
0:03:28.389,0:03:30.869 because it keeps my
0:03:30.869,0:03:33.650 strands anchored someplace on the table.
0:03:33.650,0:03:38.449 So now I'm gonna go ahead and
preload my beads onto
0:03:38.449,0:03:40.399 my Super-Lon cord.
0:03:40.399,0:03:43.349 So to do that I'm going to take the end
of my cord. You can use a big eye
0:03:43.349,0:03:46.839 needle if you like. I've found I don't
really need one.
0:03:46.839,0:03:50.799 Then you want to put fifty color
coordinating beads onto one of your
0:03:50.799,0:03:57.799 strands and put fifty purple beads
onto one of my purple strands.
0:04:02.229,0:04:06.469 Now after you've got all fifty beads
loaded onto your strands
0:04:06.469,0:04:09.799 go ahead and scoot them down towards the
middle
0:04:09.799,0:04:12.029 and take one of your bobbins
0:04:12.029,0:04:14.149 just pop it open
0:04:14.149,0:04:16.379 take the end
0:04:16.379,0:04:18.129 hold it with your thumb
0:04:18.129,0:04:21.619 wind it couple times around the bobbins
0:04:21.619,0:04:25.679 then scoot some of your beads
0:04:25.679,0:04:26.439 down
0:04:26.439,0:04:30.360 wind then around the bobbin. Wind a
little bit more
0:04:30.360,0:04:33.060 scoot a few more beads
0:04:33.060,0:04:35.559 wind a little bit more
0:04:35.559,0:04:37.939 and then pop your bobbin shut.
0:04:37.939,0:04:41.320 I've done this where
0:04:41.320,0:04:42.229 I have
0:04:42.229,0:04:44.259 maybe fifteen beads or so
0:04:44.259,0:04:45.650 and about
0:04:45.650,0:04:46.840 six seven inches
0:04:46.840,0:04:48.240 hanging below
0:04:48.240,0:04:50.010 this surface plane of my
0:04:50.010,0:04:52.749 Kumihimo and that's what you want to
start.
0:04:52.749,0:04:56.940 Go ahead and do that for each of your
strands with fifty beads
0:04:56.940,0:05:00.199 per strand and make sure that they're color
coordinated and then once that's done
0:05:00.199,0:05:01.759 we're going to position our
0:05:01.759,0:05:02.960 Super-Lon cord
0:05:02.960,0:05:05.460 and start our braiding.
0:05:05.460,0:05:09.150 Once you added all your beads onto your
Super-Lon cord
0:05:09.150,0:05:10.939 and you've got those all in the bobbins
0:05:10.939,0:05:15.569 we've got some beads along with
the cord wond into the bobbins
0:05:15.569,0:05:17.360 you want to organize
0:05:17.360,0:05:21.840 your Kumihimo disk. Lay your strands out on
it. So I want to show you basically what we have
0:05:21.840,0:05:24.460 here just so you can see. I got the
weight
0:05:24.460,0:05:25.719 and I've got the little clamp
0:05:25.719,0:05:29.830 you make whatever type of weight will work
for you. This is just kind of a makeshift one.
0:05:29.830,0:05:33.649 You see I've got
approximately the same length of string coming
0:05:33.649,0:05:35.869 out each of the bobbins and I've got
0:05:35.869,0:05:37.020 some beads.
0:05:37.020,0:05:40.649 You're going to able to add beads as you go.
So don't worry about it if you have
0:05:40.649,0:05:44.079 twelve beads or twenty beads or anything
sticking out the bobbin at this point
0:05:44.079,0:05:48.739 You can add them as you
go from that well, that reserve that you
0:05:48.739,0:05:50.699 have within the bobbin.
0:05:50.699,0:05:52.919 So now we need to do is
0:05:52.919,0:05:55.499 flip this over
0:05:55.499,0:05:58.489 so that the Kumihimo disk is facing
you
0:05:58.489,0:06:02.759 and you want the sixteen at the bottom and
thirty two at the top.
0:06:02.759,0:06:07.860 I'm going to let the weight drop down
behind.
0:06:07.860,0:06:09.610 I'm going to hold
0:06:09.610,0:06:10.410 the little
0:06:10.410,0:06:11.810 knot essentially
0:06:11.810,0:06:15.770 in my hand. It's best just below the
circle.
0:06:15.770,0:06:18.529 Now I need to straighten these guys
out
0:06:18.529,0:06:20.580 and organize them so
0:06:20.580,0:06:22.669 it can get a little tricky
0:06:22.669,0:06:26.240 I'd like to usually just pick a color
0:06:26.240,0:06:30.229 such as this purple one
0:06:30.229,0:06:32.830 seed bead purple right here
0:06:32.830,0:06:36.090 Pull on it until it comes out of
the strands
0:06:36.090,0:06:39.160 and I'm in a place that's one to one
side
0:06:39.160,0:06:40.490 of the top dot.
0:06:40.490,0:06:45.729 So one side slot between the thirty-one
and the thirty two
0:06:45.729,0:06:49.709 and grab another purple
0:06:49.709,0:06:50.849 and put it
0:06:50.849,0:06:56.029 up top on the other side of the dot
between the thirty two and the thirty one.
0:06:56.029,0:06:57.650 I'm going to take the green
0:06:57.650,0:06:59.339 or turquoise
0:06:59.339,0:07:03.509 I'm going to put it to one side of the twenty
four
0:07:03.509,0:07:06.089 I'm going to take another turquoise
0:07:06.089,0:07:10.159 and I'm looking at my dot.
Try to pick ones
0:07:10.159,0:07:16.360 which are near the right edge so when you
tied your knot your strands will
0:07:16.360,0:07:19.669 be coming out. Some will be
closer to here. Some will be closer to here
0:07:19.669,0:07:22.210 Try to take ones that
0:07:22.210,0:07:29.210 are somewhat close to the edge I'm
working on
0:07:30.419,0:07:33.960 I found a green one
0:07:33.960,0:07:36.300 and I put that to the other side
0:07:36.300,0:07:43.300 of the twenty-four dots that's between
twenty-three and twenty four
0:07:44.509,0:07:45.969 and I'm going to put
0:07:45.969,0:07:48.679 two more purples down below.
0:07:48.679,0:07:51.550 So one to one side of the sixteen dots
0:07:51.550,0:07:53.550 and one to the other side.
0:07:53.550,0:07:57.979 And for my remaining two teals I'm going to
go ahead
0:07:57.979,0:08:00.679 untangle them
0:08:00.679,0:08:04.929 Put one to the one side of the dot
between the seven and eight and one to the
0:08:04.929,0:08:08.339 other side between the eight and the nine.
0:08:08.339,0:08:12.419 I can tell my little weight has
slipped out so I'm going to connect
0:08:12.419,0:08:18.129 quickly re-tie that
0:08:18.129,0:08:19.969 So that should hold.
0:08:19.969,0:08:21.429 So this is what we have now.
0:08:21.429,0:08:25.749 So we've got the bobbins hanging below
with all the beads down at the bottom.
0:08:25.749,0:08:27.189 We've got our knot
0:08:27.189,0:08:30.719 just in that little well, it's not quite
up top it's sunken down just a little
0:08:30.719,0:08:32.220 bit
0:08:32.220,0:08:33.380 got our weight
0:08:33.380,0:08:35.910 We're ready to start braiding
0:08:35.910,0:08:38.010 So what you want to do
0:08:38.010,0:08:41.320 have the disk again facing you with the
sixteen at the bottom, the thirty two
0:08:41.320,0:08:42.610 at the top.
0:08:42.610,0:08:44.260 Take the
0:08:44.260,0:08:47.270 left strand from the bottom
0:08:47.270,0:08:48.720 and move it up
0:08:48.720,0:08:52.070 to the left of the top two strands.
0:08:52.070,0:08:55.200 Take the right strand and
0:08:55.200,0:08:58.610 move it to the bottom right.
0:08:58.610,0:09:02.710 We're gonna turn it. Not adding any
beads right now. So this is the standard
0:09:02.710,0:09:05.560 eight warp kumihimo braid.
0:09:05.560,0:09:09.190 Take the bottom left thread
0:09:09.190,0:09:12.650 and take it to the top left
0:09:12.650,0:09:15.300 Take the top right thread
0:09:15.300,0:09:18.230 and take it to the bottom right
0:09:18.230,0:09:20.570 and I'm going to twist
0:09:20.570,0:09:22.010 a quarter turn
0:09:22.010,0:09:23.670 counter-clockwise.
0:09:23.670,0:09:26.450 So I'm gonna take the bottom
0:09:26.450,0:09:27.610 left purple thread
0:09:27.610,0:09:30.220 and take it up the top left
0:09:30.220,0:09:32.730 and then take the top right
0:09:32.730,0:09:34.910 and take it to the bottom right
0:09:34.910,0:09:37.510 quarter turn counter clockwise
0:09:37.510,0:09:41.490 and you want to have this off the
ground so that the gravity is going to
0:09:41.490,0:09:44.780 work in your favor and this way is gonna
pull your braid down
0:09:44.780,0:09:48.670 and all your threads are gonna be nice
and tight
0:09:48.670,0:09:50.450 bottom left
0:09:50.450,0:09:52.790 to top left
0:09:52.790,0:09:54.690 top right
0:09:54.690,0:09:59.290 to bottom right. Turn.
0:09:59.290,0:10:00.970 bottom left
0:10:00.970,0:10:03.350 to top left
0:10:03.350,0:10:04.720 top right
0:10:04.720,0:10:06.730 to bottom right
0:10:06.730,0:10:11.680 and turn. Your just going to do that basic
braid for
0:10:11.680,0:10:13.040 about
0:10:13.040,0:10:17.000 fifteen passes or so anywhere between
twelve and twenty. I just going to
0:10:17.000,0:10:17.920 create
0:10:17.920,0:10:22.450 a little bit of a standard braid
before I add my bead and that's
0:10:22.450,0:10:29.110 going to help me when I add my clasp.
0:10:29.110,0:10:30.220 Up. Down.
0:10:30.220,0:10:33.300 Turn.
0:10:33.300,0:10:35.020 Up. Down.
0:10:35.020,0:10:37.120 Turn.
0:10:37.120,0:10:39.410 And then if you ever want to stop
0:10:39.410,0:10:42.470 Go ahead and take the bottom left one up
0:10:42.470,0:10:44.190 put it top left.
0:10:44.190,0:10:47.930 You can put down your Kumihimo
and walk away and when you come back
0:10:47.930,0:10:50.290 you notice you got one strand at the
bottom
0:10:50.290,0:10:54.710 three at the top. So now you know when
you go back you need to bring the right
0:10:54.710,0:10:56.260 one
0:10:56.260,0:10:58.090 down to the bottom right.
0:10:58.090,0:11:01.630 So make sure you do that when you leave.
You always make sure you
0:11:01.630,0:11:03.040 leave it so you have
0:11:03.040,0:11:04.510 a three and one
0:11:04.510,0:11:09.430 so you can easily comeback and not lose
your space.
0:11:09.430,0:11:11.630 I'm going to do this a few more times.
0:11:11.630,0:11:13.500 So if you can see this
0:11:13.500,0:11:15.640 it's probably going to be a little bit hard
0:11:15.640,0:11:17.660 but I've got a bit of a braid
0:11:17.660,0:11:19.930 started there and it's about
0:11:19.930,0:11:24.320 quarter of an inch maybe a little bit
more has just about a quarter of an inch
0:11:24.320,0:11:28.750 So now to add my first bead
I'm going to
0:11:28.750,0:11:30.100 take one bead
0:11:30.100,0:11:33.020 scoot it up away from the rest
0:11:33.020,0:11:36.180 grab the Super-Lon cord here
0:11:36.180,0:11:39.400 so that preventing any other beads from
following
0:11:39.400,0:11:44.000 scoot that bead all the way down to the
bottom and I want to wrap it
0:11:44.000,0:11:47.350 just so that it's under the first warp
0:11:47.350,0:11:49.430 that I need to pass over
0:11:49.430,0:11:50.890 with this thread.
0:11:50.890,0:11:55.160 So I'm doing the same technique where I go
bottom left, top left. Nothing changed in my
0:11:55.160,0:11:56.940 weaving pattern
0:11:56.940,0:11:59.010 but what changed was that I added a bead.
0:11:59.010,0:12:03.610 Do the same thing over here
scoot one bead down
0:12:03.610,0:12:05.750 hold the others
0:12:05.750,0:12:10.070 track it underneath the first warp I
need to go over
0:12:10.070,0:12:12.580 and pull my thread down
0:12:12.580,0:12:14.610 do a quarter turn
0:12:14.610,0:12:16.680 Do the exact same thing
0:12:16.680,0:12:23.680 Scoot one bead up
0:12:24.360,0:12:25.529 let it
0:12:25.529,0:12:29.430 fall down into that well, let gravity
work slip it under the
0:12:29.430,0:12:33.210 first warp in the past over
0:12:33.210,0:12:37.060 and continue putting your bottom left to
the top left.
0:12:37.060,0:12:39.319 Now we need to do the other side
0:12:39.319,0:12:44.270 top right needs to go to bottom right.
Scoot one bead down.
0:12:44.270,0:12:46.520 Catch it under the
0:12:46.520,0:12:50.410 first warp of the purple that you need
to pass over with the teal
0:12:50.410,0:12:52.670 super-lon
0:12:52.670,0:12:53.620 anchor
0:12:53.620,0:12:55.060 and secure
0:12:55.060,0:12:57.010 that thread down bottom right
0:12:57.010,0:13:01.130 turn
0:13:01.130,0:13:05.430 single bead
0:13:05.430,0:13:07.910 bottom left, top left
0:13:07.910,0:13:10.600 top right
0:13:10.600,0:13:11.690 bottom right
0:13:11.690,0:13:17.540 scoot that bead down let it
trap under the first
0:13:17.540,0:13:22.230 of the teal threads your going to passover
0:13:22.230,0:13:24.500 and keep repeating this process
0:13:24.500,0:13:31.500 over and over and that's all there is to it.
0:13:34.260,0:13:36.390 I'm going to take a pause for a minute
0:13:36.390,0:13:38.660 Now I want to show you, you know you're doing
it right
0:13:38.660,0:13:42.320 when all your stands are again back to
their original positions so you know you
0:13:42.320,0:13:45.500 nave not missed a step or anything
0:13:45.500,0:13:49.100 I need to turn this counterclockwise
I need to
0:13:49.100,0:13:53.660 scoot one bead down and make sure that I
stopped with my three ends up at the top
0:13:53.660,0:13:56.240 before I take a pause.
0:13:56.240,0:14:00.130 So I'll show you how our braid is looking.
0:14:00.130,0:14:03.480 You can see right in there we are getting
a nice spiral effect. It's coming along quite
0:14:03.480,0:14:07.150 quickly and here is the original that we
did without beads
0:14:07.150,0:14:11.230 just a little bit of space so that we will
be able to place on a glue-on clasp
0:14:11.230,0:14:12.200 Now I want to show you
0:14:12.200,0:14:13.430 how to
0:14:13.430,0:14:15.810 add some more beads to your strand
0:14:15.810,0:14:19.810 So I've got two more here and I know I need
some more. I'm going to pop open my
0:14:19.810,0:14:22.480 bobbin
0:14:22.480,0:14:25.540 scoot some beads
0:14:25.540,0:14:27.770 wind my bobbin a little bit more
0:14:27.770,0:14:29.330 and pop it close
0:14:29.330,0:14:32.579 and that's all you need to do and that's why
you don't have to worry about it in the beginning
0:14:32.579,0:14:36.370 that all your bobbins have exactly the
same amount of beads coming out of them
0:14:36.370,0:14:40.210 and if you want to lengthen it, pull down
on the bobbin
0:14:40.210,0:14:41.649 rotate it a little bit
0:14:41.649,0:14:48.649 That's going to give you some more room.
0:14:50.240,0:14:53.400 So you just continue in the same
fashion we've been doing
0:14:53.400,0:14:55.349 until your bracelet reaches
0:14:55.349,0:14:59.819 you desired length. I'd recommend about
six-and-a-half inches of beadwork
0:14:59.819,0:15:03.159 because you're clasp is gonna add about
another inch. So if you have a seven-and-a-half
0:15:03.159,0:15:09.750 inch wrist you want to bead about six
a half inches at the actual beadwork.
0:15:09.750,0:15:13.290 As you can see I've now beaded
about six-and-a-half inches
0:15:13.290,0:15:15.110 of my Kumihimo beaded braid
0:15:15.110,0:15:17.910 and now I'm going to do what I did in the
beginning where I did a
0:15:17.910,0:15:20.850 little bit of braiding without any beads
0:15:20.850,0:15:22.409 You see my last couple of weaves had
0:15:22.409,0:15:26.179 the beads on them but
now I'm just not going to do that and
0:15:26.179,0:15:27.920 it's going to go ahead
0:15:27.920,0:15:32.190 continue as normal in the same pattern.
So
0:15:32.190,0:15:34.120 left up
0:15:34.120,0:15:36.800 right down
0:15:36.800,0:15:40.300 not adding any beads. I still have my
weight on the bottom of this. Going to help with
0:15:40.300,0:15:41.970 my tension
0:15:41.970,0:15:47.050 I'm going to do this for just a little while
0:15:47.050,0:15:51.390 just so that when I attach my clasp it's
not right up against the beads I have a
0:15:51.390,0:15:55.380 little bit of room to work with.
0:15:55.380,0:15:59.260 That looks good to me so at this point
I'm going to go underneath
0:15:59.260,0:16:03.640 and grab my braid. This is the non-beaded
part
0:16:03.640,0:16:07.570 now hold it
0:16:07.570,0:16:10.390 pop off
0:16:10.390,0:16:13.880 my strands
0:16:13.880,0:16:17.970 go ahead and remove
my weight
0:16:17.970,0:16:19.970 still holding onto it
0:16:19.970,0:16:22.370 pull it through the disk
0:16:22.370,0:16:26.930 We have a couple of different
ways you can secure this
0:16:26.930,0:16:28.510 One is use some scotch tape
0:16:28.510,0:16:32.210 and that's what we showed you how to it
in our first non-beaded Kumihimo
0:16:32.210,0:16:33.330 video.
0:16:33.330,0:16:38.640 You can do that. I'm doing that for this
one right here.
0:16:38.640,0:16:42.480 I'm going to show you another method which
also works well.
0:16:42.480,0:16:47.340 Take a little tape
0:16:47.340,0:16:53.600 put it directly over my braid
0:16:53.600,0:16:57.340 I'm just gonna pinch
0:16:57.340,0:17:01.450 So that's secure. Now this is one method.
This is how we're going to attach this particular
0:17:01.450,0:17:05.640 bracelet because we don't have a lot of
extra room in our clasp. This is gonna
0:17:05.640,0:17:09.520 fit pretty much right inside there and I
don't have any extra space
0:17:09.520,0:17:13.339 But let's say I had a deep bigger well
like this is a three millimeter, let's say
0:17:13.339,0:17:15.929 we had a six millimeter clasp
0:17:15.929,0:17:19.990 or an end cap and I wanted to bulk up my
braid so it would fit that better
0:17:19.990,0:17:25.740 what I could do this time I can just
go ahead and cut this
0:17:25.740,0:17:31.950 What I could do is take a little
bit of extra string
0:17:31.950,0:17:36.750 and I can just hold my threads that I
could wind them
0:17:36.750,0:17:39.830 wind them like this. Tie it off
0:17:39.830,0:17:42.360 and then go ahead glue it in here as
normal.
0:17:42.360,0:17:46.809 The avantage is if you need to fill
in the extra space, fill in that gap
0:17:46.809,0:17:48.510 if we had such a gap,
0:17:48.510,0:17:52.750 you can just keep winding and winding
making it thicker and thicker
0:17:52.750,0:17:55.860 so that it actually sits in there
better but we're not going to do this
0:17:55.860,0:17:57.100 for this one
0:17:57.100,0:17:59.299 do the tape method
0:17:59.299,0:18:02.260 I'm going to now go ahead
0:18:02.260,0:18:09.260 trim my tape
0:18:09.429,0:18:14.070 and I'm going cut about, look at my
clasp, I have probably a good fouth
0:18:14.070,0:18:15.830 of an inch in there
0:18:15.830,0:18:22.320 I'm going to cut about a forth of an inch.
0:18:22.320,0:18:26.950 I'm going to take some
E6000 glue
0:18:26.950,0:18:29.520 and I'm using to tail end of a magic pick
0:18:29.520,0:18:33.169 and you can use whatever you like, a
scrap piece of wire or a tooth pick works
0:18:33.169,0:18:36.080 really well I happen to have this on my
desk
0:18:36.080,0:18:39.040 I use it and it cleans off really nice
0:18:39.040,0:18:42.020 the back end of the magic pick not the pick
end
0:18:42.020,0:18:45.720 I got some E6000 on there
0:18:45.720,0:18:50.700 I'm going to put it over the tip
0:18:50.700,0:18:54.140 around the side a little bit, it's
gonna spread out when I put the clasp on
0:18:54.140,0:18:56.570 anyways
0:18:56.570,0:18:57.810 I'm going to fit
0:18:57.810,0:19:03.450 the glue-on clasp right on top
0:19:03.450,0:19:07.880 shimmy it down
0:19:07.880,0:19:10.799 and then I can either wipe away
that glue right now
0:19:10.799,0:19:13.350 let it dry
0:19:13.350,0:19:16.190 So there's one half of our clasp
attached.
0:19:16.190,0:19:19.720 Now to do the other side do the exact
same thing. First
0:19:19.720,0:19:23.160 remove this knot
0:19:23.160,0:19:26.870 you can either cut off the knot if you
have enough room or
0:19:26.870,0:19:29.880 it feels like the knots gonna get in
your way, you just untie your knot
0:19:35.510,0:19:39.400 I'm holding onto my weaving especially the
area that doesn't have the beads. It's
0:19:39.400,0:19:40.680 really easy to grab
0:19:40.680,0:19:42.510 just so it doesn't unravel on me.
0:19:42.510,0:19:48.650 You take some tape again
0:19:48.650,0:19:51.700 same process
0:19:51.700,0:19:58.380 wrap the tape around it
0:19:58.380,0:20:01.840 cut these guys off because their in my way
0:20:01.840,0:20:05.100 trim it
0:20:05.100,0:20:06.270 squish it
0:20:06.270,0:20:10.750 and then cut it
0:20:10.750,0:20:13.240 about a fourth of an inch
0:20:13.240,0:20:19.800 then take your E6000
0:20:21.559,0:20:28.559 put some on the tip
0:20:29.080,0:20:33.299 take your clasp
0:20:33.299,0:20:36.930 put it on top
0:20:36.930,0:20:39.340 and push down
0:20:39.340,0:20:42.800 and there we go and we have completed
0:20:42.800,0:20:48.029 our bracelet
0:20:48.029,0:20:51.130 So now I actually have two matching
ones. So
0:20:51.130,0:20:51.760 two gifts for friends.
