I see that you have difficulty bending a wire of such thickness. Judging by the final processing of the product, you are using wire without a special coating. Then, as a life hack, I can advise you to anneal the wire (copper) first. I usually anneal it on a regular burner on the stove until it turns red and then cool it in water. This kind of wire bends much easier and is generally softer. Normal hardness can be restored by lightly tapping with a hammer and bending. I don't know if I explained it clearly... :)
Thanks for that! I don't usually anneal wire for weaving because it oxidises it and I don't like the colour once it comes out of the pickle. It is, however, a very useful tip for working with heavy-gauge wires and I do sometimes anneal if I am working with 2 mm and up. I appreciate the tip!
50cm is 20 inches, I’m an age where we were taught metric & imperial. When I’m teaching workshops I ask which they’d like & all my instructions and diagrams have both, I usually use 2 different colours for clarity, usually it’s say red & blue because it’s easy to see and identify 😁 This kind of project I’d teach though, particularly due to the people I teach, they’re usually novices, sometimes they might have done a few workshops with me or made something themselves. It’s difficult to teach something like this as the makers need a close up view, as you have so it’s easier to see and you’re an excellent teacher 💜🤍💚😁
It will definitely be less taxing with the 20g! I didn't realise I had accidentally picked up 1 mm until the wires were already attached lol. I mean it does make it a lot stronger, but it definitely is harder on the hands!
Love the video… Love your skill level, your teaching abilities, the stunning piece of art you created and your gorgeous nail color… Thank you… I thoroughly enjoyed this tutorial as you could guess 😊
Thank you ever so much!! I wish I could use subtitles, but I am not sure how to do it without having to translate everything manually. 😔 Thank you for your kind words!!
That’s the most awesome ear cuff I’ve seen, beautiful, thank you for sharing x
Thank you so much!! 🥰🥰
