I have been working with epoxy resin for a while now, and have become quite good at casting resin with different types of wood, i wanted to take it a step further and found your channel. I just completed my first wire wrapping project yesterday, and it came out superb. Thank you, and i am looking forward to learning more from your tutorials.
I just finished this one. Oh my gosh I love it. On one side I was in a happy mood , alas, on the other I got a little mad about something that was happening in my life and it isn’t as pretty. Now I will tell the person that will be looking at this and say” I name this one Moody because you wear it on the good side when you are happy. Turn to the other side when you are in a bad mood.
You are a 'learning in progress' wire wrapper. You are right to leave in your learning experiences too. Half round is for wrapping square wire. Its GOOD that you let us all see how wobbly the mixture came out. Keep wrapping and posting. We're out here watching!😃
I love watching you as you explain everything so clearly and really love what your doing and it shines out of you your such a sweet soul and I'm so glad I found your channel thanks von for every tutorial and everything you share with us we are truly blessed by your knowledge patience and creativity xx
Yvonne, thank you for your patience and constant encouragement! I don't mind whenever you have to start over: it gives me inspiration and I love that you don't pretend to be perfect. You're human and make mistakes, and figure things out along the way. I've been following your channel for years and you're such a peaceful person. Your videos soothe and teach at the same time. Again, thank you! Keep creating ✨
Thank you! I love watching you work and find your voice so soothing. I do prefer the round wire and I'm inspired to play. Going to get out my wire... 🙂
I absolutely LOVE your videos, Yvonne! On THIS tutorial you said, "and this is how messes are made . . ." I nearly fell over, laughing! 7:42 As an artist myself (so I know this first hand) and having owned an art gallery for over 30 yrs (my husband & I represented over 100 artists from 1980 => 2011+), I know that cleaning-up a "mess" is waaaaaay too linear a process for a brain that has been pressing against the left side of your head for possibly days, to actually accomplish!! We might still have the place if I hadn't developed 3 chronic pain diseases, but I make the most out of each day that I have. When I can coordinate my medications, I sometimes have 2 or 3 hours I can work with wire, stones, gem beads, regular beads small or large, past sentimental bits and bobs or found objects to make jewelry. I'm nowhere near coming close to your talent but I keep going when I can & it's nice to sell a piece of jewelry or a painting in order to support my habit. ( 54:30 - BRILLIANT!!) @8^D But my FAVORITE thing, which also helps me out of the pain, is watching you demonstrate your jewelry making process on youtube! It's the kindness shining through your voice & words, your gentle reassurance that, YES, we CAN do it - to just be slow & patient with ourselves - - - - - - thank you.
Thank you sooo very much i have many different size spheres or crystals and had a hard time trying to wrap them , this is a very special tutorial for me much needed, You are the best Yvonne♥♥♥
Inlove this… thank you for doing it in real time.. I just watched a couple of someone else’s videos and they do a little then go into turbo mode… and I found that it was almost impossible to learn anything! Inlove the weaving and the round wires , it is so pretty! I hope you do more and more videos to help us evolve this and other pieces… I’m just learning, but you are the best teacher… I’ll say it again… I want to be like you when I grow up! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷
I just recently discovered your channel and I am obsessed with watching your wire wrapping tutorials! I'm stepping back into crafting and jewelry making and your channel has been so helpful! Thank you!
Thank you for your videos. Watching them is what made me want to try wire wrapping and I'm loving it. I appreciate that you always try and make things understandable for us beginners!
I had just bought that wire wrapping peg unit i have the dopper and block i wasn't sure why I bought it then I saw this video 😅 wow now I can move into cages for my marble s..thank you
Watching all the way into January 2022, I love your heart to share the "how tos" of wire wrapping, Thank You, again! just a thought, if the half round had been a smaller gauge perhaps it would've worked out. I've only just started using shaped wire so any thoughts I have are not tested for sure. Keep doing what you're doing, Yvonne, you're such an encourager!
I love the way you explain how to do these beautiful pieces. I am a visual learner and this is perfect for me as i am a beginner at this. Thank you so much 💓
Much respect for sticking with it. This gets tedious and boring. Yet we all want our pieces to get finished. I love the heart in it, too. My attention span isn't even long enough to make a project this big. 🤯🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the cage concept! I have some dolomite that I have wanted to use in jewelry, but didn't know how to go about it as it is not cut stone. I want to try the cage! Thank you so much!!
Thank you! My first attempt was pretty sloppy, and I used wire I had (a mix of silver and copper). I did use 1/2 round silver for wrapping. Also, I caged a tumbled stone which was odd shaped so it made it a bit more difficult. All in all, I love the techinique and now I know what to do with all those tumbled stones. And, I got another useful item to add to my many, many tools (Thing-a Ma-Jig.) Your video was really easy to follow, too.
Love all your videos!! Supremely talented!! I have to tell ya, I have been playing with wire wrapping and small things of this nature for years and this video just reminded me of this craft kit when I was a kid in 197?? Lol , it seriously was pretty much the same idea except it was with this type of paper and you could make earrings and necklaces ,! I can’t believe I just thought of that. Also when you began making the design with the square pliers they looked to me like spiders !! Before you curled it. And yes I bet if someone didn’t have that tool for making the shape of the cage round you could use a mortar and pestle !!! I have a marble one
Yvonne loved this design. Your tutorials are always fun. I have to try this cause my sister has a collection of lovely marbles that would be great for a pendent and she can have it near here instead of in a drawer. all the best in the new year!
This is a beautiful design, love it! A great idea for wrapping a heart bead,😊 not sure how it would work with the swirls for the top of the heart but worth a try. Unless you might want to show how it's done, hint, hint, lol.
Oh, Vonnie - I am interested in making RINGS with a cage for a rough stone, with multiple wires and maybe a string of channel set sparklies, eventually. I think I mentioned to you that I bought a ring like that 30 years ago from an artist in Los Angeles. It was gold colored flat wire and a pretty pretty rough rose quartz stone. This method may be able to be adapted to that idea? What do you think?
Hello Yvonne I really liked the way this comes out and I actually have an order for a bubbly heart shaped glass bead to be wrapped...I thought about doing this kind of cage around but the girl doesn't want big gage wire... and since it's a round bubbly heart...I'm not sure about the top part..how to finish up the top part of the cage....any clues!??
Hey Von, this is an amazing idea ! could you please tell me which live video you did this pendant in? I don't have a thing-a-ma-jig and would love to see it don't with pliers
Thanks!
don't ever change Yvonne because i love you just the way you are.

Wow…. I love that little bead inserted into the bale trick

Parawire needs to be a sponsor. 😃👍
I want those sized beads. So pretty.

Ohh, You've done it to me again! Thanks for helping me get past "crafters block"
Got to catch part of the live! Now to catch up as I continue to clean🤗
I had just bought that wire wrapping peg unit i have the dopper and block i wasn't sure why I bought it then I saw this video 😅 wow now I can move into cages for my marble s..thank you

Can't wait to try this! I dusted off my old wig-jig and have some chunky stones that need a purpose. Thanks for a very inspiring tutorial, Von!
I love the way you explain how to do these beautiful pieces. I am a visual learner and this is perfect for me as i am a beginner at this.
Thank you so much 💓
I enjoy watching this video. I I apreciate all you ideas. I use all of them thanks. You are awesome. ❤
A very pretty, yet practical design, Von, love it! xx
WOW!!!! That just gave lots of ideas.
Much respect for sticking with it. This gets tedious and boring. Yet we all want our pieces to get finished. I love the heart in it, too. My attention span isn't even long enough to make a project this big. 🤯🤣🤣🤣🤣

all the best in the new year!
Thank you so much. I love this. Count on girl
hehe, I am so glad!
You are doing great. I love to watch you. I just wish I could see new ones. I see 5y vids
Beautiful work. I need to wrap now! Your voice and energy are soul soothing. Maybe you could record some meditations? 💜
Thank you
Such an inspiration!
I died at finger teeps 😂😂😂
This is a beautiful design, love it! A great idea for wrapping a heart bead,😊 not sure how it would work with the swirls for the top of the heart but worth a try. Unless you might want to show how it's done, hint, hint, lol.

Hey Von, this is an amazing idea ! could you please tell me which live video you did this pendant in? I don't have a thing-a-ma-jig and would love to see it don't with pliers
Cool tutorial! Where did you get the thingamajig? (And is that what it is really called?)
I would love to see your work station
You just spoke what I was thinking...21 gauge half round.
Could you say what size the larger sphere is that you showed as a possible option, but did not use?
What size are your flat nose pliers? I'm trying to find them on your isn't and you forgot to list them.
Hey Von 😊 I know you're using 16 Gauge but is it aluminum or copper core?
Copper core, but I have used aluminum as well, either works!
Do u ever have an issue with the wire making the skin black?
How durable is para wire?
Where ever we are in time and space. How'd you know? 😉👋
I would like to watch wrap a puffed heart. I have 4 rose quartz hearts that I bought 7 or 8 years ago but could never figure out what to do with.
Love your videos but why would you show us how to do this project on something not many people have or know about
Please check camera off screen many of it
One more "Wrapatition"
Stop jumping off camera please.
Hurting my eyes coz I want to see what your talking about and your hands are above off screen
Sorry, I know its frustrating, but I do my best
