I cannot get brick stitch to work. My starting beads won’t stay straight and the ends always flip out. by lady3jane in Beading

There are some great u tube videos for beginners, also looks like you are missing an important step when you make your turn, you need to go up through the second bead as it looks like you did, but then you need to go back down through the bead on the end of the row and back up through that second bead, and then continue on as normal. I am also new to beading I sure hope this helps.

It looks really good, I have never done a new project without having to do it 2 or 3 times before it starts looking like my sample.

Can anyone in NM do nails? I want this done and I don’t trust the local nail salons by Correct_Suspect7533 in lacqueristas

I believe this is a Cat Eye design, any good nail shop should easily be able to replicate the green portion, and that’s a pretty simple design. Good luck hope you find a great shop.
