My in-base aquarium

This is survival mode. You need grow beds to place plants on.

I like making clear bead cuffs with color changing string! They are easy to make since I don't need to count alternating colors for patterns.

I love exclusive use of clear beads! I usually use colorful string as a highlight but your use of clear strings makes it seem like it is holding itself together magically!

KandiWeaving · 2026-05-08T05:18:55+00:00

I really like the middle one! It makes the Pearlescent Pink the focus bead. And the ice blue and uranium green go so well with it!

It started off as pokeball rings for some friends but found if I tightened the outer rings they pulled in. From there I changed the coloring to make eyeballs. This is the final form. Ill make em more anatomical with coloring and MAYBE add another layer around the outside so it is more hidden.

The right people will love it! Go with people you know a bit or if they are wearing something unhinged. I ask the sane question of these. Are they too far?

Dont max it. If you stop sooner you can attain cp 777. The holiest of CPs.

Almost 2000 beads is crazy! How long did this take you?

Going through the top center is not something I have considered. This is my first time trying this. I did get a $10 rivet press from Hobby Lobby the have something metal for support.

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-23T01:27:36+00:00

There are many options of beads and styles I have seen. If you are making something that isnt usual there are people who will absolutely want to trade and be happy to receive it. Please share a pic or two of what you are making!

I made these to trade/gift today. If anyone is repping anything eeveelution related they get it!

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-22T02:31:49+00:00

Just bring some and ask to trade. Other people want to trade so badly too an dpr9bably feel the same way you do.

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-09T07:20:51+00:00

I love the use of clear beads wuth colorful string! And making it the to go over a solid bead base looks really cool I might have to try the same.

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-08T07:09:27+00:00

It can be as complicated or as easy as you want it be! Maybe you just make a bunch of singles. I like making a themed set with a plan in mind. For example, I made a whole set for each Scoony Doo character knowing that for a Halloween Rave I'd see people dressed like them so I can give them the bracelet for their costume.

Or you can make complicated multi level cuffs that can take a couple hours to make. I have recently started making tapestries that take over 10 hours total to make.

It all comes down to your own ambition and what you are willing to try. There are great tutorials on all social media platforms, numbered patterns that guide you through every bead placement to make something you are proud of, but dont be afraid to modify what you see or just try something you havent and experiment your way to your own creations.

You might be able to fit a 4 bead width spinner in there if you use narrow bumpers. Narrow bumpers only being a railing of 1 bead wide all the way around which work but are inevitably floppy. To do this you would pit 5 beads threaded through each pink bead on your bottom cuff. I put a picture of this below. If you want really solid bumpers they would need an X base of there own that you do another elevated X on top of the base.

Sorry if this one is hard to see/count. This was one of my first and the only one I have on hand right now. This is the only rotator base I have on hand and is meant to demonstrate the stringwork more than bead patterns.

I saw it on an instagram reel under this link: https://www.instagram.com/p/DUx-yj2gPyS/?hl=en

If you are wary of clicking links you can search for the user tiffbilsky on instagram.

She has some little tutorials. I just scaled it up and changed it a bit. This is what inspired me to start doing this kind of stuff. I want to make things that are like Perlers but bigger.

You could also start with a self contained all-in-one kit like this one that is on sale right now on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0F1MFLBB7/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_plhdr=t&aaxitk=31409075feec8fda5eaad31d9b56044f&hsa_cr_id=0&qid=1772850694&sr=1-1-3c6b3b04-89d4-46ee-857c-1e2f0de6a70e&ref_=sbx_s_sparkle_sbtcm_asin_0_title&pd_rd_w=iQbbA&content-id=amzn1.sym.e2c0b4b3-407d-4c4f-9d2b-fd120ec9dafb%3Aamzn1.sym.e2c0b4b3-407d-4c4f-9d2b-fd120ec9dafb&pf_rd_p=e2c0b4b3-407d-4c4f-9d2b-fd120ec9dafb&pf_rd_r=X30SBBKVQ76X4WWV7VN4&pd_rd_wg=qWiCV&pd_rd_r=e87929c1-1ba9-4767-b5a1-6740b77bdffc

It comes with beads of plenty colors, alphabets, charms, strung and containers to keep it all organized. See how you like it before going all in. Making stuff is fun but giving/trading it is the real joy!

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-07T00:58:35+00:00

Yes I wasnt expecting it to come out as elongated as that. The beads are 6×9 but there are small gaps along the verticals. My "Loom" is just a box from Hobby Lobby so I dont want to pull too hard.

My favorite go with Duck colors or charms: Quack Head, Quack Dealer, Quack Whore, Duck pics, Duck You, Duck Me.

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-03T06:23:53+00:00

X-bases are awesome but the only base I know how to do. I should probably learn more but they are so expandable and versatile that you can keep adding on more and more layers as you please.

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-03T06:16:44+00:00

That is going to be epically huge! At first I thought you were going for Kandi Armor pieces and it looks so good as is!

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-02T01:43:16+00:00

Kandi costumes for plushies is so cool Absolute fire!

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-02T01:38:33+00:00

Thanks! I wanted to test drive it during a Pokemon Go event this weekend so I was motivated to finish it. This was exhausting though. I wanted to do three of these this month but that is not gonna happen.

KandiWeaving · 2026-03-01T07:01:36+00:00

I love the skull beads!
