4ny k4nd1 t1ps?

i started off by getting a box of beadz at michaelz along with creatology's stretchy cord (also @ michaelz)! then i'd recommend trying to make an even peyote stitch cuff! this video rlly helped me and a lot of her content is suuuuper helpful!

you can make sooo much from a peyote stitch 

In my opinion, the best tutorialists you can find on you tube are Ginger Cand-e, cybr.grl, VickyMuffins, and Mood Kandi. Beads are easy to find in stores which you already knew. Many people make grid designs online, you can use those for a idea. There are also tutorials and ideas on tiktok aswell. 

Get cloth string instead of the clear ones, they'll last longer! 

don’t use clear string!!!!! >< it doesn’t last super long and it’s very slippery, knots come apart super easily !!!! 

Use Pinterest also plastic needles really help with cuffs

Use FABRIC STRING!

It's way better! It's super stretchy,  and it won't dry rot. 

Ok so as a Kandi kid, here are some tips

USE FABRIC COVERED STRETCH CORD. It helps with dry rot and is just more comfortable

For beads? Amazon is great, buy a pack with 2000 or more pre separated beads and a pack of pre separated letter beads

Tuts? You can find a lot of great ones on YT, I don't have the channel names sadly

Other tips. make sure you make everything tight when making kandi unless its a single or latter stitch, it can prevent gaps and stuff. Always tie knots at least 3 times, kandi can break and its not fun cleaning up beads. 

If you have any other questions I'm hereeeeee!
