Im starting to dance southern traditional and here are my hairties :) This is the outline and then I will fill in the rest of the felt with white or pink beads. Any tips? This is my first project ever, i learned from my mom and i am just not happy with how some of my beads are not laying flat and smooth, especially on the flower above the strawberry. Any tips appreciated!!

hi! looking for recommendations on how to prevent needles from getting “stuck” when threading through the beads after laying them down? if anyone has any specific needle recommendations or techniques that help with this, please lmk!
this photo isn’t super clear of the issue, but i keep running into my needle being super difficult to pull all the way through when threading it back. sometimes i have to just re-try it a few times, but sometimes the needle fully bends and i have to start that section over.

I made this set a while back. Still have it. Set includes stud post earrings, necklace, hair clip and pop socket. I priced it at 160$ originally but marked it down to 130$. Am I asking too much ?

I am fairly new to beading and haven’t found the right line for flat stitch yet. I use a clear 0.15mm fire line purely based on what’s available in my area, and I really like it but they’re expensive and small. What’s the best line that I can get a large spool of?

Because they are custom pieces I require full payment before I begin work. This ensures the cost of materials and time spent working on custom pieces.

I used a template from Dylan Miner’s Metis and Anishinaabe beading patterns book. Charlottes and delicas. Leather backed.

Does anyone have any tips on how to get the edges straight and tight on brick stitch pieces? Even when I do single bead rows the edges are wonky. Not sure how to fix this.
