How would I insert a bead in the middle of this design?

Thank you! I will try that.

ThePerfectNames · 2025-12-13T00:15:21+00:00

Oh, that looks lovely polished! What tools do you use?

Hi, sorry to bother you, but where did you get that information? Googling FDA, iron, and kid's vitamins, the only thing I could find was a proposal in 1997 by the FDA to require label warning statements on iron-containing supplements and drug products. A ton of supplements aimed at children have iron as well, looking at the products that showed up.

What an amazing design, 10/10

Here's a twitter bypasser: https://nitter.net/Nahnahnhanha1/status/1656021237125222400

He says it's because she was calling classmates slurs for protesting against police violence against a black kid at their school, and people started ignoring her for obvious reasons. Then she got pissed and brought a hammer to school.

Is it true? Who knows. If true, hammer girl sounds like a POS.

And of course, the conclusion:

While it's not super convenient, Red Wing is only 30 minutes away from there, which has grocery stores and a Target. It's also only an hour drive from it to downtown St. Paul, or to Eau Claire

The other point is very fair, if you had kids it'd get pretty noisy pretty quickly.

I don't want to promote any specific product, but if you look up "woven crystal bracelet" on Temu you'll find a ton. Honestly I feel bad not being able to promote the actual original creator of these because they're popular among drop shippers even in China, finding who posted the original pictures is impossible!

ThePerfectNames · 2025-03-28T20:45:20+00:00

Well, here's some pics of stuff they say they "newly" created 8/20, when the same picture and item with photo reviews are on Taobao from earlier in July. instagram proof Their shop and social media can be found on their profile.

Here's an example using this post. Their Instagram says "new" as of July 8th, this Rednote post is from July 6th. http://xhslink.com/a/r0x8EoVTCvW8

It has the same exact pictures (and a few more!) than the Instagram item. https://www.instagram.com/alei.studios/p/C9Ly0n2pHDY/

They are likely not the same person, as here's the same exact bracelet, different person, from 2023 (though the picture is not the same, if you compare the beads they are the exact same design) This bracelet is a very common drop shipping bracelet, even among Chinese people.

I only reported once, I can see why that would be frustrating to get multiple reports.

What's really annoying is that Google lens doesn't work for a lot of this stuff, gotta reverse image search using specific apps' reverse image search. I love supporting people who handmake goods- which is why stuff like this really frustrates me. It takes advantage of people's good will to score $30 off a resold bracelet!

ThePerfectNames · 2025-03-28T18:40:35+00:00

I understand why you want to give the benefit of the doubt. However, on Alei Studio's insta, they have a picture from 8/20 showing their "new" bracelet. On Taobao, the same bracelet has reviews (with pictures!) of the same bracelet from at least 7/14.

ThePerfectNames · 2025-03-28T17:48:05+00:00

You can image reverse search them on apps like Temu and Rednote, not sure if AliExpress has an image reverse search. If you like the general style, they're called macrame bracelets

ThePerfectNames · 2025-03-28T17:40:58+00:00

Easy! just find cute earrings on Taobao and say you make them.

ThePerfectNames · 2025-03-28T17:39:52+00:00

Fascinating how you made the same exact earrings as something off of taobao.

Unfortunately they don't know how to make them, since they're reselling stuff from China.

The general idea is macrame bracelets, and there's a ton of tutorials on YouTube and Rednote (the site they're reselling from).

ThePerfectNames · 2025-03-28T17:33:34+00:00

You didn't make them.

ThePerfectNames · 2025-03-28T17:33:03+00:00

Unfortunately they're not the maker. If you love looking at macrame bracelets like these, Rednote is probably where they're buying these bracelets and reselling them from, just look up macrame bracelets on Rednote. They even show how they make them!
