    The spiders are so cute, thanks for the tip on filling the holes of bigger hole beads.

    These are the cutest things ever. I have been looking for a good tut on these and I found it here. I loved the tip about "stuffing" the large bead holes with more beads. That was pure genius. Thanks so much Aleshia, for your brilliance and creative ideas.

    Best spider tutorial out there. I have been making these for a while and thanks to you mine will be even better. The best tip is to not start with the seed beads. You are a fantastic teacher. Thanks again, Lysa

    In 1982 I designed and sold the first Christmas Spiders and sold 7 of them at a consignment shop here in York County, Pennsylvania. At first, when my spiders started appearing the next year produced by a local church I was really mad. I was young, and didn't realize the Christmas Spider was bigger than I would ever be. I"m glad to see it has grown, just wish I could get some credit. The first ones were made with wire, two large pearls, a smaller one for the head, and I painted a mouth and eyes with black and red and had beads on the ends of the feet. There were clear elongated beads on the legs. There was also a clear string out the back to hang it. There was also a small rolled up story that came with the spider. Thanks to everyone who have helped to make the Christmas Spider what it is today.

  • @lifelessons4
    @lifelessons4 Před 7 lety +1

    Hey I made these today and I didn't have any 20 gauge for the legs so i used memory wire and used some 26 gauge wire and 'sewed' them together so they wouldn't move. Worked pretty good! This is a great video you really know your stuff!

  • @SugarBabyRox
    @SugarBabyRox Před 11 lety +5

    I have made 6 of these so far for friends and coworkers. Everyone loves them, and I keep referring them to your youtube page. I've said it before, but you have the best tutorials. They are easy to follow and your ideas are fantastic. Thank you so much for these! I get excited whenever you add a new tutorial. :) you've been keeping me busy making pretty things since I discovered you!

  • @chagoot1024
    @chagoot1024 Před rokem

    I wish I had checked out this video earlier!! You never know how helpful the info in one video might be for an entirely different project. I have struggled for years trying to perfect the spiral headpin, with it properly centered. I kept watching one from a company, but the lady went too fast, and her fingers were in the way, so I never got it properly started. Now, I can finally see how to begin those headpins, for many different projects. Thanks again, Aleshia!!

  • @SparkleByMonica
    @SparkleByMonica Před 2 lety +1

    Your video here taught me how to make my first beaded spiders back in 2013 when I first started making jewelry. I also purchased those Wubber pliers back then because of this video. Just wanted to thank you again. Have a spooktacular Halloween. Sparkle on!

  • @beadifulnights
    @beadifulnights  Před 11 lety +32

    Yes, they are my own designs I can't and would never do a video on someone elses design. I could get in big trouble with the copyright law. However, I have been having people copy my videos and act as if the design belonged to them. I make my designs by just playing around with my beads and trying different shapes and sizes.

    Thank you SO much! I was at a fair yesterday, there was a booth selling these. I just couldn't bring myself to spend 35- 80$ for one!! And the 80$ one I loved. I looked closely and knew I could make my own!

  • @darkstar7422

    I Love it! I'm new to beading and your video inspired me. I made the first of many to come! My head and body beads were very loose so I double the length of my body wire and bent it in half and used it double up through the head and body. I found this stiffened the beads and the leg wires nicely. I spiraled the wires at the back and left the two ends pointed up to resemble a stinger of sorts. I twisted the bent end of the doubled wire at the head to form a loop. Thank you for your wonderful tutorial!

  • @mweatherby2968
    @mweatherby2968 Před 9 lety +1

    There are a lot of beading video's out there....YOURS is by far the very best I have seen! You speak clearly, give "tips" as to how to make your Arachnids better. I did "subscribe" to your video's because this one is so well done. Thank you for sharing your talent with us all.....Happy Holidays!!!! Oh, Arachnids in a Christmas tree are considered good luck.

    Aleshia, What a great informative video! It would be perfect if you could list the materials so it makes a shopping list. While watching how creative you are, I didn't make any notes. Being able to take a snapshot of materials would help enormously. Thank you for all of the effort you put into your videos. Keep up the great work!

    Love the way you make your spiders . I have been making spiders for a few years now . Love the swirl you do .. I I double the wire that goes through the beads so i have a loop at the front & put small beads to make eyes . I Put my larger ones in box type frames .. Will try doing the swirl as it looks so good . Thanks for posting such a good video . Reading the comment you made about copying .. I watched a few tutorials on how to make spiders & then did it my own way as i don't like to steal designs .x
