“Behold the turtle. He makes progress only when he sticks his neck out.” – James Bryant Conant
Here's a #turtle themed jewelry making tutorial using beads I received from @globleland3302 . I show you how to make a memory wire necklace and wrapped loop dangle earrings using the cute pink turtle beads from #globleland. I go over how to use a bead design board, what type of cutter is best for the hardness of memory wire, how to fix a larger memory wire loop, and offer some info on cold forging steel wire. This video is packed with beading goodness.
