    I love the double link - gorgeous shape, ephemeral. Thank you for putting these tutorials up, they're so helpful.

    LOVE how you post a small picture of the item in the corner. So helpful!

    You make this look so easy but it requires a great deal of technique! Great job

    @wendyannh 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I especially like that third link; I don't think I've seen it anywhere before!
    Very nice video; you teach well! I also really appreciate that you don't repeat the same things over and over again, that your videos are a good length for an attention-challenged person, LOL! It makes it easy to go back and review steps if necessary, too. Some other people's videos just go on and on and on, and I get so bored with them.

    I love the metric system, except for thickness of wire, and croquet. Thanks for putting the gauge size up too! I'm really learning a lot from your videos

    • @LilyTree
      @LilyTree  7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thank you, and you're welcome! Gauge conversions still confuse me a bit, but I'm getting the hang of it. I don't know why measurements had to get so complicated!

  • @karenw8929

    I love you! Congratulations on 14k subscribers! I have been learning so much from TH-cam, the internet is such a fabulous place to learn from different people! In my day, there was no such thing, and so this is absolutely fabulous, and thank YOU for being fabulous enough to show us! My latest issue with jewellery making has been the storage. I will have to look at the masters, see how you do it! All these little parts, and each project makes more and more messes, how to contain and keep the room from looking like a disaster area. We appreciate you, and now, I am not going to be buying anymore clasps!

    • @andreataylor3354
      @andreataylor3354 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      woops- this was meant to post to your beautiful clasps tutorial on the knotted S clasp!

    • @LilyTree
      @LilyTree  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you Andrea! 😊 Yes, I remember the days of searching endlessly through books to find the answer to anything! 😄 I'm glad you're enjoying the channel, and the clasps! I'm not sure I can help with the disaster area avoidance though! I'm definitely in the 'messy crafter' group! Neat craft spaces make me nervous! 😄

  • @sandramccormick8326
    @sandramccormick8326 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    So simple and elegant! I love making my own links for chains too and have made a similar chain with the third link. I yet have to try my hand at hammering and will be going shopping for a drill as well to try the first link you showed! The second is my least favourite, but only because I REALLY suck at making wrapped and open loops, they always end up wonky and uneven! Yes, I know, practice makes perfect 😝 I may have to invest in some bail making pliers I think, might have more luck with even loops then 😂

    • @LilyTree
      @LilyTree  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you Sandra! It sounds like I'm going to be responsible for some more shopping! Yes, bail-makers are my 'go-to' for keeping the loops even! But with link 2 being in 0.4mm wire, you do get the opportunity to re-shape the loops if they do go a bit wonky!

  • @AnneAndersonFoxiepaws
    @AnneAndersonFoxiepaws 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I really love the last one and as there's joiners downstairs I'm going to make one tomorrow while they're drilling and whatever. .I'll just blame them anyway lol!

    Great tutorial! Love all three of these chains. I have one question, is the copper wire you use deadsoft or half hard?

    • @LilyTree
      @LilyTree  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The wire I have is dead soft. I find that this is easier to shape and manipulate, and for the hammered links the hammering then work-hardens it enough to hold its shape.

    • @LilyTree
      @LilyTree  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! Yes I most often do. The gauge of wire depends on the piece I'm using them for, I most often use 1mm/18 gauge but have used anything between 0.8mm (20 gauge) and 1.5mm (15 gauge).
