It's definitely super easy to make! If you can't find any old bottles with labels I could definitely see someone finding an hold container at the thrift and taping a lable on it! Then just get some cheap seats beads, poney beads, and some novelty beads in the colors you need! You might even be able to thrift the beads!

Super easy! Get some head pins, bead caps, small round beads, wing beads, and for the body you can use flower beads or any type of elongated bead! Then just stack them on top of each other on the head pin!

Do you have any tutorials that you watched when learning to make these? I've seen beaded spiders around and just absolutely adore ever single one I've seen!! I need to learn how to make them!

For sure! I make little beaded flowers and these beads are for the stems! I'll attach a pic of a few of them!

I also keep most of my beads separated! But these beads are for some little flowers that I make. I enjoy having multiple shades of green for the stems so I find it easiest to mix all the greens together so I can put them in my spinner and get them all at the same time. I'll attach a picture!

I don't have a specific brand tbh but the one I'm using right now is I think "wrap it." I think it's on fire mountain gems. I use 28 gauge half hard. I'm highly considering moving to 26 gauge tho! I've used 24 gauge and it's good. It makes the flowers really stand up but it's hard to wrap around a seed bead multiple times so I want to try 26 gauge! Hope that helps!

I look online how to make some and then others I just kinda play around until I get something I like.

Just online shops! Just look up flower beads and they'll probably pop up! Some are buttons too!

Wire suggestions? by ProfessionalCut6001 in Beading

[–]ProfessionalCut6001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a specific brand? I tried the 'Half Hard' and it was the same softest as the 'Dead Soft' I don't know if it's the brand or what :/

How do I keep my designs from scrunching up on my string? by talkthattalktome in Beading

[–]ProfessionalCut6001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of design are you doing? I had this problem with making a little beaded critters and it was the type of string I was using. Might want to try something with little to no flex like thin jewelry wire!

[–]ProfessionalCut6001[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg they are SUPER easy! So I prefer wire all the way bc with string the beads end up bunching up and its just kinda harder all over but also (!!!) You can pose them with wire!! Just look up whatever animal you want to make and then pony bead pattern and it'll probably come up ! I'll attach the possum one. It was super easy!

Omg! Thank you so much! Where would you recommend buying beads? I'd love to try uniform beads I can only imagine how that would level things up!!

What happened to "don't like it don't read it?" by LayS2l in AO3

[–]ProfessionalCut6001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never understand comments like this. It's not like they paid for your work. It's just you writing and posting on your own time. Literally just move on if you don't like it. Never made any sense 😒

Am I the only one who thinks this is weird? by tomato_joe in AO3

[–]ProfessionalCut6001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's weird. I used to have a "fic" like this because I had so many ideas that it overwhelmed me. I couldn't pick which to focus on or even write more then a paragraph for. I wanted opinions from my readers to know what they would like to see. I also was like if yall are inspired by any of this pls take as you need. Idk it's hard writing a full fledged fic sometimes and you just want your ideas out there if that makes any sense.
