Thank you so much! 😊 It was definitely a test of patience, but I’m so glad you liked the final result. Your comment made my day!

🥰💜🩷❤️

Thanks! ❤️ I’m really happy with how they turned out-took some patience, but it was worth it! 😅

Thank you so much! 🤗🩷 I really hoped I could save the first one and make it work, but after hours of sanding, I could see it wasn’t going well… Deep down, I knew starting over was probably the only way, even though I really didn’t want to. Sometimes, something just tells you there’s no other option, right? A good lesson in patience, that’s for sure! xx

In the UK, we spell it “jewellery” with the extra “l” and “e” - just a British quirk! 😉

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! I really appreciate it. This video was meant to be inspirational while I was working on an order for the hammered teardrop pendant, and my aim wasn’t to create a full tutorial but rather to capture the process, which is why I kept it simple with subtitles. I can see how talking through the process would be helpful, though - I’ll definitely keep that in mind for future videos! I hope you enjoy making your pendant! ❤

Thank you so much! I’m doing a beginner silver jewellery diploma with Jewellers Academy - it’s been an exciting journey! I share more about it in my recent videos, and you can also find details here: www.jewellersacademy.com/. Thanks again for watching!

Thank you 💜💜💜☺️

Thank you so much! Really glad you enjoyed it - means a lot! 😊💜

Thank you! I’m a beginner with soldering, so I’m thrilled to hear that! 🥰

Thank you! It definitely felt like a big win - so glad you enjoyed it! 😊

Thank you so much Cate! It’s actually become my favourite ring too xx 😉

Hi Cindy! Thank you so much for your kind words - I’m really glad you found my channel! I don’t hallmark my jewellery yet, but in the UK, any silver item weighing over 7.78 grams must be hallmarked to confirm its silver content. The hallmarking process involves taking the piece to a registered assay office, where it’s tested and stamped with a mark indicating its purity. There is usually a fee for this service based on the weight and number of pieces. It’s definitely something I’m considering for the future! I appreciate your support and hope you enjoy my videos! 🫶🏻😊

Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you like the ring and the paw print pendant! It’s always great to connect with fellow cat lovers. I understand how you feel about fire; it can be intimidating! In my diploma program, I’ll be learning about cold connections soon. I really enjoy soldering, even with the mistakes I still make - it’s all part of the learning process! Thanks for sharing your experience, and I hope you continue to enjoy your jewellery-making journey! 💖🤗

Thanks for your kind words! I’m happy to hear you liked the pendant. Paw prints have a special charm, don’t they? ❤️

Thank you for the tip! 😊 I think you’re right-the solder probably didn’t fully melt. There’s so much for me to learn and practice, but I’m getting there step by step!

I got them from stampit.co.uk 🙂

You don’t need to buy the bail pliers. You can use any hard, round object with the right circumference to shape the wire for your teardrop pendant. It’s a simple way to get the desired shape. Happy crafting! 😊

@@justynasart thank you for letting me know! I will just find a round object. I wasn't sure if you would read my comment so I asked the viewers. I hope you, Hachi and Kofi have a great day!

Thank you ☺️🙏🏻💜

Yes, it is sterling silver wire. You don’t have to buy a chasing hammer specifically - if you have a flat or ball-peen hammer, those can work for flattening and adding texture. But if you plan to do more metalwork in the future, a chasing hammer could be a good investment. 🔨😊 And yes, that was Hachi, my tricolour cat! 😸 I also have a black cat, Kofi - they both love to ‘help’ with my jewellery projects!

Thank you! 💙 you’re very welcome 😊

Interesting. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻💜😊

It is the Silver Jewellery Diploma at Jewellers Academy (jewellersacademy.com)

​@@justynasart Thanks for that info. I'm very interested in taking the diploma course.

Thank you so much! Patience is definitely something I’m learning through this process - it’s all part of the journey. Glad you enjoyed the video. 🤗

Thank you! 💜💜💜

Thanks! I used nr 2 🙂

Thank you! Yes, I do enjoy sawing, but it definitely takes a lot of patience to get the hang of it. 😅 I’m still learning, and I tend to hold the piece too tightly, which makes my arm hurt. I know I need to relax more when sawing - but with practice, I’ll get there! And thank you for always supporting my videos! It means a lot to me. 🤗💙

Thank you so much! I’m really glad my video could inspire you. I totally understand - I was very nervous at the beginning too and kept trying to postpone starting. Having a timeframe helped push me forward, and I reminded myself that this is just one of the steps towards making the jewellery I want. You’ve got this! 😊💪🏼

If you can find a in person class in your area, I recommend it. Its great for beginners. I took many classes but want to learn new techniques online.

Thank you! I was actually thinking the same thing - they would make a lovely pendant! 🪷🦋I appreciate your support! 🤗

Thank you so much! 🥰 I’m still learning, so your kind words really mean a lot. I also really appreciate you sticking with me to the end 🙏🏻🩵🪚

I’ve tried wire wrapping stones without holes a few times, but it’s not really my thing - I wasn’t happy with the results. However, I highly recommend checking out @OxanaCrafts on TH-cam! She does brilliant tutorials on wire wrapping stones without holes. Hope that helps! 😊

Thank you so much for subscribing! ❤️ I’m really glad you enjoy watching my process - it means a lot! 🤗

Thank you 🩵

Hi, Thank you ☺️ I use Pro-Polishing Pads - they’re great for polishing silver and fired metal clay, giving a high shine. I found them online at a metal clay supplier (metalclay.co.uk).

Thank you, that’s so kind of you to say! 😊 It’s just an old piece of suede that helps keep things steady on the table, but I’m glad it adds to the look. I’m really happy the video could bring you some calm after a busy day!

Thank you! 😊 The bezel rings can be purchased from jewellery suppliers, and I set the amethyst stone. I also hammered the band for that textured look!

Thank you so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed it 😊

Thank you for the advice! I only hammered the front of the ear wires and left the part that goes through the ear unflattened. I use a nylon hammer to harden the wire, so it should stay safe for wear! 😉👍🏼

Yes, I used round wire.

Thank you! I’m glad you love the style! Rockhounding sounds like a great adventure, and I hope you find lots of inspiration for your jewellery! ✨😊

Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it. I like to keep it simple and let the process speak for itself! 💙😊

Thank you so much! I’m really happy you enjoyed the video and truly appreciate your support. 🙏🏻🩵😊

Thank you for sharing! It’s great to hear about your early contributions to this style. It’s amazing how timeless techniques like this have evolved and grown globally. I love how this design has resonated with so many jewelry makers and enthusiasts around the world. 😊🌍

Thanks for your kind words! I’m glad you found it helpful. Oxidizing jewelry can really add depth and character. If you give it a try, I’d love to hear how it turns out! 😊

You’re welcome ☺️🩵

Thanks so much! 😊 I’m really glad you enjoyed it. I like to keep my videos simple and let the jewellery-making process do the talking. Really appreciate your kind words. 🩵
