More needle threaders
Just made this and plan to make more for an upcoming craft fair..I never really got into beading but have some glass beads and thought this would be a fun little project besides the beaded stitch markers for knitting and crocheting..they are not good for fine needles but medium size and for floss and yarn..will watch yard sales for more beads..fun to have somthing to hunt for
Here are more I made today

I love them so much I wonder if you would mind if I used your idea, I belong to a small quilting group and would love to make them each one aspart of their Christmas present. I promise I will let them know where the idea came from.

Thanks, I will take a few different size needles with me and check out various sizes and will post what I find. Another example of how great this board is, we share so many wonderful ideas with others all around the world.

What size wire
I love your beaded needle threaders, but I wonder what size of wire you used? I see the wire is twisted under the top bead. I have many beads stored at my winter home, can't wait to try this. Is the wire too thick for a fine needle? Big thanks to you for sharing the idea. I assume, this last longer than Wal-Mart or JoAnn's needle threaders.
