I really enjoy this channel. Doing crafts like this was recommended to work through some PTSD. The way you explain things, the tone of your voice etc... is just calming. Also helpful in learning to adapt to only having partial use of my left hand. I'm incorporating a lot of this stuff into other projects, it really helps expand my creativity. Best channel of this type on TH-cam! Thank you!
Thanks for the confirmation Doug. Am currently challenged with the old childhood PTSD as I had a cancer scare that turned out great but can't dial it back YET and was hoping this craft/art will be soothing. Crocheting sure wasn't. Am tickled pink by how sweet and the great teacher Yvonne is.
I too use this as myself prescribed therapy for PTSD. I lost my 19 year old son, David, 15 years ago, and after screaming at God for two years, I found this. It calms me; it helps me focus on something besides the flashes in my brain.
@@lonislovelythings3736 I am so sorry for your Loss .We lost our 8 year old Granddaughter in 2018 and it still Grabs us and shakes us up. I feel so sorry for my daughter also .I know how bad it hurts me ,But as a parent I know it hurts you and my daughter so much more.
So far I have only watched 2 of your videos and have already learned a great deal! I will surely be watching many more. Your laugh will keep me coming back for a long time. Thank you.
I just made these today using peridot as the center bead, copper seed bead as a spacers and three smaller peridot beads on each side. They came out beautifully! Really like the weight and feel of the 16g wire.. had to use 26 g wire to hang the beads as the peridot crystal holes are so small. Did the variation loop as opposed to the spiral. Looking forward to showing them off! Thank you for your clear instructions and awesome design!!!
I agree with Doug Russell. I enjoyed your way of explaining things. It's obvious you're a patient person. The only suggestion I would make is increase your volume. I had to turn my volume to the top. This is the first video of yours I've watched. I plan to watch many more. Thank you!
This was great a pretty earring design, and thank you for showing all of the details and information and for not speeding the video up, I appreciate how you think of us beginners, people don't always want you to speed up the video, thanks Laura in uk
So.....forget the earrings.......I WANT THE HAIR!!!!!!!! Been with you since around the time you started.. Love watching you both and so incredibly inspiring tho me!!! Thank you and God bless.
Hey 🙂 Just wanted to say hi and thank you for your awesome videos....as I'm newbie....love how you explain each step & love these earrings.......cheers Mel from Australia
I've learned so much from you! Thank you! The stone is pronounced Kal said dough knee. The emphasis on the second syllable ...said. (it's the teacher in me)
Love. Love. Love these! I have some Carnelian Briolettes to wrap maybe I could try this style with those🤗💜PS- PLEASE share your music choice I can’t find it anywhere and I love the Guitar and strings playing in your videos! It’s So soothing! I feel so connected with the universe when I watch your videos- I can just imagine the scents you probably have in the background too like subtle hints of some sandalwoods, patchouli or dragons blood-You’re such a beautiful spirit and absolutely fabulous instructor! Thank You- Wishing You Both Many Blessings And Long Good Health💜
I love these earrings, both versions, but I think the larger spirals are my favorite. I love your tutorials and how you think outside the box. I am new to working with wire and I am learning a lot from you, thank you for your time and expertise that you put into each one of these tutorials.
Try a dust buster to clean up. Mine is a Dirt Devil 12 v lithium ion quick flip. I've been using it everyday for over 3 years and the battery still lasts forever and is amazingly strong.
I enjoyed the ear rings done today - I have not used steel wool in many years from when I used to strip and work on refinishing wood furniture. I like what it did to the ear rings. Waiting for next ones.
Yvonne, I wet my steel wool and use a dab of Dawn dish detergent. It keeps the steel wool dust from flying around. I polish over a plastic tray that is easily rinsed off. Then I polish with my rotary tool with a 3/4" Carbon Steel Brush. Then I may tumble the piece for a beautiful shine depending on the stones I use. Great video. Thanks!
Ultra Polish Pads, available on Amazon, do a great job of polishing after steel wool. Great for polishing in between shows or wear also. One pad goes a long way.
My cat was actually laying on my desk, watching your video with me, but the minute I picked up my camera to take her picture, she turned around!! LOL camera shy.
I use your same method of polishing with steel wool however I just do it over the sink with running water. Works great Thanks for the tutorial. Beautiful earrings
Cal-sed-duh-née is the pronunciation and it is a beautiful stone and word. I love the earrings. It looks like quite a sizable outlay of money to get the necessary tools and wires, but such a gorgeous artisan’s hobby. In your case, a profession, because everyone would pay good money for those earrings. I cannot believe how beautifully they came out.
I really appreciate your way of teaching so patient for the new beginners, thanks you for also saying that we can sell what we make that we learn from you !
I know this is older, but I when I use steel wool, (I actually avoid like the plague) I put a piece of paper under my area for a quick clean up. I also move all of my tools away from it because I do a lot of pickling and don't want the steel to contaminate anything. Great design and wonderful tutorial. Thank you for sharing.
I love these… the pair you made with the smaller spirals just needed a row of red beads strategically placed to look like a clown! My daughter might like that! ❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷
Yvonnee- I love these earrings - I wish you would make more of these simple earrings more often. They never go out of style. Such an easy design and would like to see much more. Thanks for all your sharings!! Love that curving jaw also!!
Me too I'm just getting back into making after taking a several year break.... Working back up to advanced stuff is fun... Thx so much I love ur videos
To avoid the mess from the steel wool I suggest that you work inside a bag like a large Ziploc bag. Large enough for both your hands and the piece to fit in comfortably. All the shavings go into the baf; easy peasy throw away!
THANK YOU I made these and i love how they turned out... not as good as yours though as i see a bit of a mistake on mine thank you for this tutorial and i think i will make a matching pendant THANK YOU
I've spent the last two years buying tools, wire and beads using coupons a couple times a month. Almost there.....lol.😊 Not alot of extra funds to play with. The journey has been fun and I've learned a lot along the way. I know for sure that I can do this because I have not given up! This is going to be my first serious wire wrapping project. Wish me luck. Thank you for sharing your art and being kind. You are a great teacher ❣️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love that your heart is with the beginner, ME! Bless your heart. A lot of tutorials leave us in the dust. LOVE your videos and especially your soothing, kind voice.
Hi 👋 Have you ever put hammered copper rings or loops in the lower part of the oval heart? I am going to try this. I love copper so much! Thank you for generously sharing your passion, process and beautiful work! God Bless 😃
I love watching you work. Your voice is so soothing. I would like to make these earrings. Can you tell me what type of stone you used and where you bought them. Yvonne thank you for sharing your beautiful design.
Absolutely LOVE u jewelry! Love wire wrapping and resin protects. I recently retired and just fall in love w this art. Hope is not too late to go into this adventure of jewelry making 😭but w wonderful people like u , great teachers, will start trying the easy looking 🥴proyects I see. Thanks for sharing! I’m so grateful 🙏❤️💐💐💐
Thank you so much for sharing. You are very talented as well as being very generous to us beginners! Keep the tutorials coming. Sandra, Ontario, Canada
You are Awesome!! Love learning from you!! You explain things and go slow enough so this 60 yr old grandma who is just starting this can follow!! Thank you and keep it up!! 😊
For containing the steel wool fragments I have two ideas. One would be to spread newspaper before you work so that you can just roll up and toss the mess. The other would be, weather permitting, to do the steel wool portion outside. Your tutorials are amazing. Your gentle voice and manner are so wonderful and your designs are beautiful. Thanks for sharing your talents!
Oh ,Yvonne, thisis the best tut yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely loved that you went all the way from A to Z, whereas most tuts stop some wehre around S! Love the design, love wthe way you told your story! Thanks so much from snowed in Colorado! Happy Holidays!
I was just thinking about how I missed your tutorials, and then this popped up in my feed, I couldn't be happier! Hopefully, I can try it out real soon since I have some Christmas presents to make :D
girl hellooooooo there - I'm new to ur channel - I'm impressed with ur work and ur kindness - I've never heard anybody saying something so thoughtful about ur videos and allowing everyone to sell the jewelry - i absolutely agree with spreading the word about WHO has provided us with such a wonderful work - ty so much - I'm stick around so happy to have found u girl - much love ❤🙏🏼🌹
Thank you so much for these tutorials. Im a beginner and I appreciate how you go into depth for us beginners. I love how your voice is so soothing also. Thank you ❤️
Easy Cleanup: wrap a strong magnet in a piece of papertowel, collect all the iron dust with it, unwrap the paper towel around the collected metal dust and toss it in the bin. That doesn't work for the pliers, but for the bench. :)
I'd like to learn how you made the crescent moons I got in my kit. They are so pretty and I'd like to try and make some myself, thank you for this video of how to wrap pendents I'm going to try that now.
Hi I've been watching you for a while and I love the things that you make I've been doing it for a while and I love
Cal said knee ;-)
Love your tutorials, appreciate your talent and generosity so much!
You are SO FUN ‼️ "Wrap, Laugh, Love" is what I tell my daughter I'm making a piece: Wrapping wire, laughing and having fun, and Loving the community!
You are so kind and gracious with your gifts & talents. Thank you!
Hi , my advice would be do your wire wool in water , a small bowl x thanks for sharing all your lovely videos x

The way you talk and enjoy the process is adorable. ^_^

Hello Yvonne Williams. Yes when you look at the gemstone name it can be difficult. This is how I remember and say it. Cowl Said Knee. Hope that helps.
You are so sweet!! Thank you for teaching us and then allowing us to see what we make if we want too!! You are very selfless!! Big hugs to you!

I have one too and love it. Think mine is 3 years old and as you said the lithium battery lasts forever.
I would love a pair of those earrings

That's a great idea! I'm also wondering if using spray furniture polish might help as well, like maybe Endust? Just a thought 🙂
My cat was actually laying on my desk, watching your video with me, but the minute I picked up my camera to take her picture, she turned around!! LOL camera shy.
As usual beautiful 🤩🤩🤩💖💖
YVonne, I love your patterns and just listening to you. Thank you
Love that you use Parawire.
love your hair like that
sooooo beautiful! thank you so much! much love
For your steel wool try the 0000 fine steel wool. It is smaller or thinner and not as messy.
Those earrings are gorgeous
Yes yes yes. Tytyty I've been wanting to learn this one !!
Yout hair is so cute!
Кофе, прощай)). Очень красиво!! Спасибо
I use your same method of polishing with steel wool however I just do it over the sink with running water. Works great

Hello Yvonne,
You have become an excellent teacher.
Many tanks for giving us the opportunity to let us sell our jewelry after your teaching.

It's cal-SED-o-nee (which I only know because I had to google it myself several months ago). I'm a huge fan! You are a dear. Tfs!
