Today I have for you the opening of yet another jewelry supplies order from ArtBeads.com. You all seem to enjoy these videos so I’ll keep making them, but if you’re getting tired of them let me know and I’ll stop. 🙂
This order has several items that I got for very specific projects. The 8/0 and 11/0 seed beads are for the Daisy Duo bracelet which I first found on Linda’s Crafty Inspirations, she has loads of designs on her blog. This one happens to have a PDF tutorial for sale. I managed to figure out how to make this bracelet without the paid tutorial by basing the design on this free tutorial for a similar bracelet, the Superduo Flower Chain Bracelet. But I am certain based on the reviews that the paid tutorial is worth every bit of $7!
I also got some bails to finish a second superduo donut pendant, which if you follow me on Instagram you may have seen me working on. For this one I made the two sides completely different color schemes, which made it a little tricky to choose a bail that went with both sides. (See the video for a look at the second beaded donut.)
The tila beads are to make this wiggle bracelet, I love the movement! I haven’t seen any patterns, but it seems fairly straightforward if you study the photo. If you don’t feel like making your own, click on the link to buy Cindy’s, her prices are quite reasonable. She has lots of other lovely designs in her shop.
The rest of the supplies are either things that I have in mind for specific future projects and videos, or just random things that I really don’t remember why I got them, but you can be certain one day I’ll find a great use for them!
Here are links to several of these products and ones like them:
- 11/0 matte copper seed beads
- 8/0 matte copper AB seed beads
- swivel tube bails
- matte metallic tila beads
- TierraCast Antique Copper-Plated Pewter Radiant Toggle Clasp
Also, in case you missed them, I reference these two videos:

What a so good idea Sandy to make so beautiful videos with superduo beads: I do like them and your bracelets are so great.
Superduo donut pendant is such of jewelry I love because of the design and all the details but take care of your eyes, the beads are so tiny 🙂

Thank you, Marie! I had fun making several things with superduos. I’ll be putting together a video about them all soon.
Those are so beautiful! and I’m sooo envious of your new bead stash!
Oh it is fun to have all these goodies to play with! But it’s also work, as I’m sure you know. 🙂
