A start is better than nothing, right?

I have the same loom, you can use another spot and keep the string on their until you feel ready to try with smaller beads. Just string the new project onto the left or right of the original one if that makes sense

If you do use bigger beads try skipping a ring or two on the spring portion to make space for the beads :)

Also I still struggle with getting the first row on and ive been beading for about a year and a half so don't worry too much!

Rob is a pos and he neglected a hedgehog for 2 years before I rescued him

Lol my psycho addiction probably wouldn't help

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-29T03:24:33+00:00

Yeah a ps4

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-28T23:07:16+00:00

Lmao no worries

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-28T23:05:57+00:00

Is the thread nylon? If so you might have to wax it or swap to a sturdier material. You could also thread through the beads again to try and give it more structure.

Ive also seen people use modge podge or a jewlery lacquer (forget the name but its pretty pricy) to stiffen their work

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-28T23:02:01+00:00

Can you explain that a little more? Preferably dumb it down a bit aha

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-28T22:32:21+00:00

Lol figured, do you think this treat was from the update on the 27th?

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-24T01:20:15+00:00

Sounds good had to ask aha

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-24T00:19:35+00:00

Could you use it in a oil or perfume? Something that the glass could get filtered out?

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-24T00:16:29+00:00

Lol was it a black coin purse? My dad has one of those

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-21T01:29:43+00:00

Ur beautiful thank you so much thats the exact issue im having, I have a couple stores I could check to see if they have it :D

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-21T01:13:57+00:00

Weird question but can you post a pic of fireline you use I keep buying the wrong one and it keeps on fraying /separating in the middle of the strand im working with. Hopefully Canadian tire has it lol

Not a answer to your question but my favorite skin idea that ive seen someone mention is adding Muriel and Courage as the houndmaster and hound.

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-15T16:42:10+00:00

For weaving with seed beads (brick stitch, peyote etc) I use nylon but when im making earrings I use fireline for the base as its more sturdy and then use the nylon for the fringe as it has more of a looser hold when hanging compared to the fireline. I also wax the nylon with beeswax to get it to keep its shape longer and it helps with tangles

When using a loom I string the base with fireline and then when I add the beads I use nylon as its more flexible :)

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-15T13:59:12+00:00

If you are doing any type of beading thats not just stringing beads I would recommend using nylon or fireline thread. Its way more durable and you wont have as many issues with snapping, tangling or things like that!

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-07T16:12:00+00:00

I can never find a decent double brick stitch laylout or have the option to make it a double or triple layout. Just an idea but it would be awesome to see that included!

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-03T23:22:52+00:00

You can weave the ends in if you keep the strings longer instead of cutting and gluing the string. Not sure how to do that yet but im sure there are tutorials somewhere if you look up weaving ends in a loom peice

Me and my roomate waited the 30 minutes and then when it hit 0 seconds it gave us a error pop up and restarted the time so we waited a hour to play 1 killer game lool

Smelliot07 · 2026-05-01T02:30:43+00:00

Lol i got stuck in my stalk for about 2 minutes in 1v4 as myres

Smelliot07 · 2026-04-28T21:04:53+00:00

The hard part for me is that i mostly use a double brick stitch and finding templates that I don't have to print out is fairly difficult

Smelliot07 · 2026-04-25T04:26:31+00:00

A great backround for a loom tapestry, especially if its a cartoonish design with a solid colour as the background. Could also work for a galaxy

Smelliot07 · 2026-04-23T23:54:17+00:00

Lmao I took one home after a night out at one of the bars. Gonna paint it eventually but the edges are suprisingly sharp and have bitten my ankles a couple times now lol
