We live in the greatest era. We can just look on the internet for what ever pops in our minds.
I remember having to get on my bike and ride to the library to look stuff up.
Thank you for sharing.
This was great ... the explanation was great
i totally agree. i have used many youtube videos, especially during the quarrantine.
Oxana, your Tree of Life makes the most sense to my mind of all the others I've seen. Thank you so much! Now I'm getting busy😊
I can so hear the love of what you do in your voice as you teach! You are truly the best!!! Your designs are beautiful.
I agree
❤😂🎉
Best tree of life tutorial hands down. I've always loved these and was always afraid to attempt it because it looked complicated. You made it very easy. Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
Yesterday I made a comment about how my wires were snapping . I was sure that it was due to the wire and obviously, I will repeat,obviously not the fault of this wonderful woman doing this wonderful video that I can wonderfully follow without once getting confused.
This time I use silver-plated wire like it suggested Google and it worked.
To put a positive spin on my disastrous outcome. At least I did one practice run and today the wire did not snap and I was able to get the whole tree done in less than 10 minutes.
If you don't mind me suggesting this and to anyone out there I'm not trying to be the B word. Please just let your followers know to use a strong wire I can't tell you how frustrated I was when it started snapping it just really sucked.
So glad it all worked out for you! This is a super tiny tree and as such I had to use super tiny wire. I would definitely recommend starting with a bigger tree (bigger stone) and a thicker wire like 24 gauge, that will definitely be easiest to start with. Here's my tutorial on a bigger tree with 24 gauge branches: th-cam.com/video/1M9Gaq2nIHc/w-d-xo.html
So I'm trying to figure out 🤔 if you are a neurosurgeon or a grade school teacher by day and we all know that you are a master jeweler by night! Your craftsmanship is absolutely unbelievable.
Haha, well I used to work with mutual funds, but now am a stay at home mom :)
Thanks for this. I made one of your other pendant wires for an agate that my kids found on the beach- as an anniversary gift for my wife. She loved it and I enjoyed making it WAY more than I thought I would. So I'm trying this one now. Thanks again!
VERY CLEVER, AMAZING, AND EASY TO DO TI. THANK YOU OXANA FOR SHERING.LOVE THIS ART , MAKING BEUTIFUL THINGS WITH MY HANDS WITH YOUR GUIDANCE.
Thank you for your patient tutoring. You are very creative and encouraging for us senior crafters!
Thank you! So glad you liked it!
Your techniques are wonderful, and so easy to follow! I had been having a hard time learning to wire wrap my cabochons, but your tutorials are so easy to follow because you explain everything, every step of the way! Thank you from a great grandma who is learning to make jewelry rather late in life! LOL
you are such a great teacher!! Very easy to listen to and extremely thorough!
I am so glad your back! You were missed! Thank you!
Thank you for a comprehensive and thorough tutorial!
The best teacher on wire wrapping.
Thank you so much!
I have watched several tree of life pendant tutorial videos today and this is my favorite. Easy to understand and fun. Thank you for sharing.
Love your clear tutorials and the fact that you don't go off-camera. It makes it so easy to follow. Not to be rude, but your stone is not labradorite. It's rainbow moonstone and it's a beautiful cab!
Yes it is rainbow moonstone, maybe I said Labradorite by mistake
I always love your tutorials! You make such beautiful pieces and I truly appreciate how you explain clearly each step in your process of creating them. Thanks so much for taking your time and sharing your talent with us all.
This is the prettiest thing I've seen all year. Love moonstones.
You have the most beautiful designs and are so generous to share your knowledge. Thank you.
This is the best video out there for Rapping step step thank you
Thank you so much for sharing this tutorial and all the time you spend teaching! Using this tutorial I was able to make a meaningful necklace for my mother in law for Mother’s Day! My husband made the cab from a rock that was in her father’s yard and I did the tree of life wrap with eight branches representing my mother in law’s 8 kids!
I absolutely love how you do your tutorials. Thank you for being so detailed and giving suggestions for options etc. ❤️❤️❤️
You are so welcome!
I had made my first copper wire “tree of life” for a birthday gift to my daughter and now this pendant for Christmas..this is a perfect gift that I like to give. It’s not about how much, but the love you put into it❣️
I LOVE this. So beautiful. What a clever idea! You are very talented. Thank you for sharing.
Instructions are very clear and slow enough to follow easily. Thank you!
my absolute favorite. easy and yet beautiful. good clear instruction.
I always wondered how these were made. This is gorgeous. Thank you for the tutorial, I think I may give this a go because I have some gorgeous cabs that would work well for this.
WE LOVED THIS VIDEO!!! My wife and I just started wire wrapping and i have to say this is one of the best videos we have come across during this new adventure!!! THANK YOU!!!
Oxana, you're amazing! Love your work.
This is an excellentlly, detailed tutorial! Thank you! Now I gotta re-do the little tree I just made!!
Absolutely beautiful! You make it look so easy! I’ve made a few Tree of Life pendants, and my technique is coming along, but nowhere near yours. Must keep practicing! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for sharing this video. I am about to start using wire wraps. I’ve never done it before because I was afraid that i wouldn’t be able to do it. After watching this video and the way that you explain and show everything step by step and slowly, I think I can do it now. I bead but kind of bored with just beading now. I think it’s time to get out of my confort zone. Lol. So thank you once again.
Very clear instructions, clarifing various details along the way, and great photography, too. This is the clearest tutorial I've ever watched! Thank you.:)
I can follow better how you do this than other tutorials. This is so beautiful.
You are an amazing tutor and created an amazing piece. Thanks for sharing your talent!
I've always thought these were so beautiful. Now that I have watched your video, it makes sense to me how they are made and I am going to attempt one. Thank you for sharing and making your video so easy to follow.
Thank you so much I love this ! I've seen other folks tell you what a great teacher you are and I couldn't agree more I'm excited to try this now I'll let you know how I do 😀

Thank you!
I wish I could post a pic of my tree of life. It is beautiful.I learned so much from this tutorial. I'm so proud of myself. Thank you.
That is wonderful it worked out so well for you! :)
Beautiful work. Love the video, it was very helpful, easy, and fun! Thank you! 🖤
Thank you Oxana, for showing and inspiring, this will be my project for tomorrow :))
Thank you for such a great tutorial I am inspired by this.
Great tutorial. Have made this one twice now with great success. Thank you for taking the time to post this.
Thank you! So glad you liked it!
Your descriptions and teaching are quite good :)
this is so beautiful! you are so talented! WOW
Love all of your tutorials and have just completed a "Tree of Life" using this technique. This is the first one that I have been truly satisfied with. Looks glorious using a Lapis cab.(approx. 3x2cm oval). I have been using ebay as a source for cabs. In general those sourced from India are consistently of a better quality and value.
Thank youuuuu! I've been trying to make these all day with tutorials I bought on etsy and could not figure it out and made this one with you and it came out perfect!
So glad it worked for you!
Magnificent. You are an excellent instructor . Thank you
Thank you so much!
i made my first, and probably only, tree of life today and followed this video step by step. thanks!
You are very welcome!
Time consuming but oh, the results! Just fabulous and you were excellent in explaining every detail. Lovely, just lovely! Great tutorial. I enjoyed every minute of it and I might just give it a try myself. Wish me good luck! 🍀
Oxana, I do many types of crafts as well as draw and paint and years ago I was into sticky back, thin copper sheets. I purchased a heart shaped box and covered the box with the copper, inside and out. On the lid I used a punch that had different dies, one was a maple 🍁 form. Punched out some leaves and adhered them to the top ( they were very small, fidgety ). I wanted to get that oxidized blue-green color on the box so I used an old but clean Cool Whip container with a smaller old but clean plastic butter container ( I used a ice pick to put holes in the bottom of the butter container ). I put this upside down in the center of the larger container ( weight this container with something or it may float ) and poured some ammonia about one third of the way up the upside down butter container ( with the holes in the bottom but facing up as you look down onto it ), then I set my box ( removing my weight, a rock ) on top of the upside down plastic butter container. Then I put the lid for the Cool Whip container on and let the fumes from the ammonia do it's work for a little over 24 hours. DON't inhale the ammonia! When it gets to the desired affect, remove your item, let it air dry and then you can seal it if you like with a clear acrylic or not. It will continue to " age " if you don't seal it and the effect is beautiful! Thanks for your response. ❤️
Beautiful necklace! Thanks for sharing!😻
BEAUTIFULL, you are so talented.X
Magnifique...! Merci beaucoup pour le tuto....! 😍
I've learned so much from you! This is one of my favorite projects.
Thank you! So glad you liked it!
I have wanted to do a tree for a while! Thanks for this tutorial! 👏💕
You’re welcome 😊
I feel kind of silly in thinking about the way I made my ToL, totally differently. This is so much easier than what I did! Thank you for the tips!
Great tutorial!! very clear! I was lucky and had a hole in my stone so I fed one of the wires to the bottom and connected it to hold the stone stabe ; )
This was a very helpful and informative tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us, this is absolutely beautiful!
That rainbow moonstone is gorgeous.
Thank you!
Precioso, originalisimo y perfecto.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Such a great tutorial 😍
super thorough and good video quality thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Simply amazing
i like wonky branches. i felt happy having someone to show me how i can do me...in a wire wrapping lesson
Aramayic dragon's Kinda reminds me of Bob Ross's "happy trees" and all the other tiny details he added to his paintings....in fact, her teaching technique is very similar, which is awesome. Lol
It looks great
Great job a nice gift for someone
I love your pendant.
Wonderful tutorial! Thank you.
You are very welcome!
Bellissimi e tanta precisione!
You are so talented
Oxana, girl you are a bird in this world! But you sure can fly.
