"I love ordering through auntiesbeads.com! I live in a town where the closest thing to a bead store (hobby lobby) is 30 minutes away and the quality and service aren't up to par. With your website I can get most everything I need in a very short period of time and with anything that isn't available I can sign up for emails to let me know when they become available. Thank you for being my go-to bead supplier!"

Using Bead Cones Instructional Tutorial


Have taken many questions on how to use bead cones. Though there are many uses for bead cones, I will demonstrate techniques on how to incorporate them into a multi-stranded necklace. It’s easy and an attractive way to hide your multiple crimped ends of a necklace or a bracelet!

Attaching Bead Cones
This tutorial was very helpful with the cones and seems a lot easier to use now. However, I have been making crochet bead ropes and have not been able to find a tutorial on attaching the cones and toggle clasp. My thread continues to show in that area. I saw the helix stitch but that is done with wire...correct? Which would be easier to finish out. Can you help me? Thank you for your wonderful tutorials I am just begining to bead and have learned so much from you.
[Editor's Note: The Helix is done with Fireline not wire. Karla says she has not done crochet bead rope. As for the helix it was done with thread.]

Cone Bead Instructional Tutorial
Wow, what a great tutorial for learning how to use these pretty bead cones. I was afraid to try without seeing the technique. I can't wait to make my first multiple strand necklace. Thanks Karla, you made it look easy!
