Aren't these cute? They are the bottom dangly part for some things I'm making to swap. The fabric part at the top won't show -- it's just to hold the fibres securely. But I can't show the finished art! That would ruin the surprise. But I really like these, and boy-o-boy, was it ever hard to thread the fibre through a needle. Is there an easier way to put beads on a fibre?

Your dilemma? Sorry I haven't got a solution.

You can use a big eye needle to thread your fibres. It's basically a beading needle that has one giant hole that collapses around the fibre...I'll have to check for you to see who the manufacturer is, if you like.
oh My gosh, how I wish I was going to artfest! Love these dangles...
what creativity you have!

Hi Martha,
You can get the 'big eye' needles at bead f/x in scarborough either by going in person or have it delivered. I have yet to use mine but it would seem to fit the bill. They come in 2 lengths.
