Thank You!  Just making sure I understand. I can always find a visual.  

Stuff needed

Bead Board:  Basically a board that you can hook the jewelry wire too
Beads: various types
Coil Spring: I'm guessing a baby spring that hooks the ends together while beading?
Seed Beads: holds the beads

Is that right?

No, not at all  

All that's really required to make any piece of stringed jewelry is beads and a string.

Components
Bead board (optional but helpful): Board with multiple "U" shaped grooves of different length where you can lay out the individual beads in a pattern, and see what they look like together before stringing. Also helps to keep the order of the beads so you can just start mindlessly stringing once you've laid out your pattern.
Line: anything to string your beads on. could be Jewelry line, jewelry wire, satin cord, hemp, etc.
Beads: various types
Spring (optional but helpful): clamps to the end of the jewelry wire/line so that the beads you just put on don't fall off the other end. Could probably buy one at any craft supply store.
Seed Beads (optional): just filler beads that go in between featured beads. They're very tiny. In my picture, the maiden strand has white seed beads between the blue and pink crystals. But they're not necessary, as the "seed beads" I chose for the crone strand are all just tiny swarovsky crystals. It all depends on what you want to use in your design (enter the artist mentality here - be the creator).
Cones (optional): brings multiple strands together before the clasp (see picture of headdress).
Clasp (optional for the headdress, but needed for necklaces, bracelets, etc): fix to the ends to hold beads in place and allow the piece to be opened and closed (there is no clasp on the headdress).

Hardware
pliers: help to finish the ends by helping to attach the wire to the clasp by wraping it around the proper end. rounded nose pliers can help open up "o" ring type clasps without distorting the shape of the ring. needle nose pliers are good for crimping the ends of crimp-type clasps (I don't know what they're really called) to satin cord (if you're using cord material in place of jewelry line or wire). you really only need pliers for finishing the project, after designing and stringing.

Remember that the clasp will add length to the end of your project, so plan accordingly.


My 2 year old makes awesome necklaces stringing wooden beads on a hemp strand, which we then tie at the ends to hold beads in place, then tie the ends together to make her necklace. This is a good example of basic beading theory. Like any experience, once you understand this you can take it in any direction you want.

Feel free to ask more questions or for further clarification, I'll be happy to answer.

You did an absolutely wonderful job.  Ever thought of selling them.  You obviously have a wonderful talent that I can only dream about.  Believe me when I say that.  You should how many times my cross stitching goes flying before I finish it.  Again it is beautiful work and you should be very proud of it.  I hope you are having a great day.

Bright Blessings

Add a good teacher to her talents.

I fear I've said too much   (smooth rolls the sunglasses, lights a smoke, and quietly walks away  )

Spiraling, I told AliceJ I have to research the business code of ethics for this site, but I DO do craft shows with my business partner and am slowly becoming more involved in the creation of inventory rather than just marketing and sales. There will be a few done for the shows coming up in a couple of weeks, a side project to the pillows I have put out at previous shows. But I wouldn't expect to sell more than just 2 in a weekend...tough crowd for such pagan representation, even my herbal eye pillows get some raised eyebrows (i've decided to market them with a tag that says "relax...it's an eye pillow!", as opposed to "satan's spawn in dried herbal form!", which it might as well be)

The wonderful talent you perceive in me is really just a lesson in patience and dedication. Designing and completing the piece was relatively easy, it was scheduling the time and sticking to my schedule that required special skills    no, seriously... pillow making taught my fire ass that some projects can not be completed immediately and spontaneously, but take time to complete over several days, even weeks! who knew...

Anyways, look at the results of learning life's lessons! Awesome, just awesome...definately better than anything I would have THOUGHT I could create. I'm sure you receive the same type of satisfaction from cross stitching. You must have good eyesight and a basket full of patience.

Everyone...you've overwhelmed me with your praise, ego massages, and thank you cookies. I've never been so accepted and reassured. Thank you for such an awesome feeling.

rock n roll!!  666((

Then you could make an online store.

I just cancelled my first website, because the business set up (for a completely unrelated business, fundraiser based) ran into some red tape.

I do have a dormant ebay site that I still occasionally use to sell my fiance's airbrushed license plates. May have to revive it.

I can feel the vibrations from that just looking at it!!! It is very ALIVE! Great work! I want one! haha

you should make more and sell them!! they would definitely sell!! i know i would love to have one, but i don't know when i would get around to making something that intricate! it's a really beautiful piece!!

It's gorgeous!!
You are very talented!
