It shows, how much love you put in your design, the result is stunning👍 Back and front both are beautyful! Thank you for sharing❣
Grtzz, Marion
Aww, thank you so much, Marion!!
Just beautiful. I won't say easy but it looks like something I could do. I have a stone in mind to try. Thank you.
Thanks! I hope you enjoy wrapping up your own pendant! :)
Do you think you would ever do a tutorial with a drilled heart or any drilled stone?..I love your tutorial you are a wonderful teacher ❤
I'm doing a drilled stone tutorial next month for a larger coin bead. :) I definitely need to put drilled hearts on the list! Thanks for the suggestion!
Beautiful design! Thank you for your master class❤
This is a wonderful design for thin stones! I will be excited to try and set the fauceted stone! Never know until you try it. I really like that added bling!
Me, too! I don't think you can every go wrong with more sparkle! ;)
True craftswoman, wow. Blessed thanks
Aww, thank you! That means a lot. :)
Thank you very much! So much cleaner, neater, and easier than the way I did mine! ❤
I'm glad it was helpful!!
Beautiful pendant and great tutorial! 😊
Thanks so much 😊
This is gorgeous! I'm going to give it a try. Thank you. ❤
Thanks so much! Enjoy!
I just finished this and it came out beautiful! Thanks for another wonderful tutorial!
Yay! I'm soo happy to hear that!
love watching your videos what talent
Thank you so much 😀
At the 31:56 minute mark you use pliers to make some space in the front frame weave so you can lash the back and front together. A favorite tool of mine for that task is using a T-pin.
Thanks for the lovely tutorial.
That's a great idea! Thanks so much!
I absolutely love the back! I think the bezel itself ought to be a little larger all around to contain the stone, leaving a back that is flat and flush with the bezel. There are certain key points on the stone that need to be captured, in order to secure the stone.
I agree. The design is better suited for thinner stones, but this is what I had to work with at the time.. lol. It probably would have been better if I’d made the bezel wider as well. :)
Thank you for tutorial. Love it. And i will try it
You're welcome! Enjoy!!
❤ i hope u can drop more tutorial,,,i love your videos
One coming up this week! ;) Thanks!!
very talented
Thanks!!
Master piece
Aww, thank you!
I love it! Thank you!
Sure thing! I'm glad you liked it!
The back is genius!!!!
Thanks!!
Excellent tutorial beautiful design you can do so many different pattern of weaves also so many possibilities if one wanted to try other patterns for different stones thank you fir sharing 😊💙🙏
You're so welcome! I'm glad to hear that you like it!
Thank you Ellie, beautiful work x❤
Thanks so much!!
I love the piece that you created it's beautiful including the faceted cab but i'd be frightened that that ceb would fly out/ drop out
This design is definitely better for thin stones. I think I used a stone that was a tad too thick and probably should have made the bezel a tad wider.
Thanks!
Sure thing!! Thank you! 😊
Thank you for the tutorial. You are a master at the art of weaving. Thanks for showing me how to add a faceted stone to the bail. I have not found a way to simply add a stone before, so thank you for this excellent tutorial. I am working on it right now! I love the way you finished the back!
Hello. You have wonderful products. Please what do you dip the copper in to make it look old? thank you Stan
Liver of Sulfur. Stinky stuff, but it works!
Thanks, Stan! I use a liver of sulfur gel solution to darken my pieces. Here's a video I uploaded last week showing you how to do that at home: th-cam.com/video/bxp6bfabBsc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=4iF3Fm7unAe8CCt1. Hope that helps!
Wauw just amazing!!! I love it❤. What kind of stone did you use? Because the stone is also very pretty!
Aww, thanks so much! I believe it's an ocean jasper. I got it from Casdans.com. :)
I have made this!! Your tutelage is wonderful! BTW how should wire be held as not to have the warmth of your hands distort your work?? I seem to have a death grip... I am trying to use my fingers only my hands... Blah!
Thanks!! Hmm... I think having clamps really helped me with that. Also, just being very conscious of what I'm doing and reminding myself to relax... lol. I hope that makes sense?
I love your videos, and I've learned so much from you! My question is, when you sell a pendant, do you offer a chain or a chord with the pendant? Do you have any advice?
I usually offer a nickel-free, copper finished chain with my pieces. Occasionally I exchange for cords, if requested. (I get them from GemPlus24 on Etsy). I just make sure to factor that cost into the piece. If they want a solid copper chain, I usually charge extra for them. Hope that helps!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you responding so quickly@ellieshandcrafted
@@dawncatinella9781 Sure thing!!
❤❤❤❤
😍😍
Tha audra tutorial can you use a round cab instead of faceted? The small one i mean
I don't see why not. :)
Thanks I already purchased but hasn't used it yet as my little ones aren't faceted 😂
@@megansmith8827 LOL. I've been there done that! It shouldn't be a problem. ;) If you do need any facets, Casdans has them now! (Which is a huge yay for me. ;)) casdans.com/collections/facets?filter.p.m.custom.shape=Round
Do you keep your weaving wire on the spool?
Generally, yes. I have a ribbon dispenser that I use to hold my wire, so I just pull it from there :)
Where did get focal stone?
I got it from casdans.com. She has the best stones!
Could i use 18 and 24 gauge wire?
You could, but 24 gauge can be difficult to weave with. I usually recommend weaving with 26 or 28 gauge wire. But 18 gauge, should work just fine. :)
Ok, So I have a question? How much of the stone should the woven wires cover?
I would say, just enough to hold the stone in place. Maybe an 1/8 of an inch or so? Hope that answers your question. ☺️

Fa estás hermosa 😸
Can I use an oval stone instead
Absolutely!!
Thank you
@@angelabatstone2975 You're welcome. :)
