Thanks! I love this! Just wanted to share a trick I use to make really sharp corners. When I identify where I want the corner to be, I thread the wire into an eyelash curler and compress it. I find it makes for a more sturdy frame.
Eyelash curler??? Awesome! I have to try this! I have to probably get an eyelash curler first but this is so fun, thanks for sharing your sharp corner trick!
As a lifetime crafter and artist, the hardware store is my favorite place to shop! Wierd Al did a a song about The Hardware Store that I sing in my head when I go there. LOL
oh wow, that tip about making epoxy shapes for dowels is brilliant!!! I've always wanted an excuse to play with epoxy and I finally have one. Thanks so much! Great video!! 🥰
You've given me a great deal of information using my favorite hardware stores as jewelry shopping places. I was using them during my Tailoring classes, but never lost my love for them; now, doing jewelry, I'm running back to them. Thank you for being such a wonderful inspiration!
When I started making jewelry a little over 5 years ago, I looked at EVERYTHING as a means to wrap and/or form my wire including a Bic lighter I had lying around! 😄 I used anything and everything I could get my hands on from pens, lipstick tubes, sharpies, TicTac containers, pill bottles, shampoo bottles, dowels, plumbing pipes/fittings, the inside part of an ink pen (for tiny jump rings), etc... you name it and I've probably used it as a mandrel or as a wire forming tool! 😄 You have some excellent tips for beginners and all I can say is that one is only limited by a lack of imagination. Btw, I think your little blue beaded Bic lighter earrings are soooo adorable. I just love them to pieces! ❤️❤️❤️ Also, anyone who happens to solder could use a thicker gauge copper or silver wire to make large oval jump rings with the Bic lighter and use the jump rings to make an alternate/oval version of a paperclip chain. Jackie Kennedy made the paperclip chain popular in the 60s and they seem to have made a strong comeback. Although I am not a beginner jewelry maker, I really enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing! 👍😊
Oh I have really enjoyed this video tutorial!! Great ideas and inspiration for me to try some new things. Really appreciate your help and advice thank you so much.🐶❤️❤️💕💕🥰🥰🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍
You will look at the hardware store anew! ;) Visit the section where all the cabinet handles and nails are too. Great shapes in metal for very inexpensive, but the plumbing parts are wonderful too! I visit PVC often as well as the area that sells door trims and moldings (wooden dowels) :D
I can’t thank you enough for sharing your tips and tricks on shaping wire! Pill bottles (especially the large 1s are great for shaping cuffs and bangles) of all sizes are great dowels too!! I really appreciated this tut a lot and I picked up some new ideas (like the bic lighter)!! Thanks so much again!!

Hello, thank goodness there is someone else with a brain like mine. Everyone I see a TH-cam demo I always think of alternative way of achieving the same result. I have already a small collection of objects that I have saved because they have good shapes for craft. This ranges from small bottles from perfume, tiny jars that have contained jams other toiletries containers i.e. deodorant or fancy shaped pillboxes. If you decide o look for a particular shape, always start in the home it's amazing what you can find. The other idea I had if you can't find the right size or shape, make your own from air-dry clay, then you might start a new collection you can always turn to. Happy crafting, thank you for your video, Eve from England x
This is a fantastic idea, Eve! Yes, clay and make your own shapes! Wonderful! I have a few I made out of Polymer clay too, so I appreciate that you remind me of these too. I appreciate your thoughtful comment and I love the pill bottle and jars too, yes! Maybe even old lipsticks! Happy creating!
Thanks for the ideas! Question : how do you seal your work? What products and what method do you use? Do you have a video about it? I love you way of teaching because it is calm and you insensitive freedom in creating upon your work. Thanks! God bless!
@@PerfectlyTwistedJewelry , I'm here to apologize for my Corrector that exchange de word Sensitive for Insensitive. I love your way of teaching! I don't sale my work. I don't a professional in this area. I found Wire Wrapping during the Health Crises and I feel in love with it. I first started with those awful wire sold in some "stores" that I'll not mention. Slowly I found sites to buy de dead soft Copper and proper tools, places to buy Cabochons, beads and all there is about Wire Wrapping. The learning curve came slowly and I love it. For me it is a great way to be creative and I open to keep the learning process open. I'm at the point not to be embarrassed to give my creations as gifts. My question about "how to seal" my work was from my heart because it has been a "step" that nobody speaks about it. I hope you accept my sincere apology! God bless!

Hi. I’m just getting into making jewelry and I really want to make geometric dangle earrings. One smaller rectangle inside a bigger rectangle & inside another!!!! But I can’t find a single tutorial for this. Can you help??? I love this video by the way!! Thank you!
When I saw the level, I thought "we have to use level (in the traditional manner) to shape beads?" LOL. I have a level, and shaping a wire around it, I can do!!! I used tp love running around the house to find things to shape wire with. Now, you've reminded me how fun it is!! Great tute!!!
Many Thxs for all you do! Great ideas on forms to use! Please can you give me the name of the sealant for the copper wire, this is all new to me. In Gratitude!👍🏽💐
What kind of sealant do you use on your copper wire jewelry? How many coats do you use? I have yet to find one that stands up to NC humidity. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing.

Awesome! You sound like you are having so much fun! I do not get the little beads there... the link is below, I get them from Etsy... the link is for the beads themselves, you pick a size, then add them to your cart, then pick another size, etc... I normally use 1 or 1.5mm, 2 or 2.5mm, 3 or 3.5, 4mm... I have 5mm beads but dont use them that often. The shop is a good one to keep bookmarked for supplies too, they also sell smaller spools of wire, some tools, jewelry findings, jumprings, etc.... so check out the shop before you get the beads to make sure you see them all! ;) I am soooo excited for you! www.etsy.com/listing/721271275/copper-smooth-round-beads-ready-to?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=3mm+copper+round+beads&ref=sr_gallery-1-4&frs=1&bes=1&sts=1&organic_search_click=1

Hi there, thank you for another lovely video. I heard you say about putting your earrings in a "sealant" Can I please ask what sort of product you use? Thanks so much ❤❤

@@PerfectlyTwistedJewelry Oh that's really kind of you. Thank you. I have heard it recommended before so I have just ordered a "small flask". Biggest love and thanks to you. You are an angel 😇💜🙏
Thanks so much, Nancy, I'm glad you think so! I look forward to seeing you this weekend at livestream! I am working on posting your reminder links right now too... so look for them soon. Many hugs!
My son gifted me A Riogrande spree,want to get 3lbs of sq n hr cause Izzy users them quite often in her tutorials, wanted to be prepared for the livestream this weekend
Yeah! I just sent you some of the links to the copper wires you asked about. Now you will have both squares and round wires correct? You can blend them too! Yeah for your son!
Hi Melanie! My tutorials use a lot of 18g square for frames, 20g squares for add on decorative wires (sometimes smaller frames)... 22g half round for bale wraps and ties, I also weave with 28g and 26g round. All of my tutorials should work with either square or round wires, so if you have round wires onhand, you can also use them and sub where you see square frame wires. Having said that... here are the links to Riogrande.com where I buy wire... they sell in large quantity but it really is the better to best price in volume... there are shops on Etsy that sell in smaller spools too. The half round wire I always use is 22g half round. Here is the link... select the gauge, they sell spools by 1 pound. www.riogrande.com/product/copper-half-round-wire-1-lb.-spool-dead-soft/132506GP/?code=132541 For square, I'd get 20g and/or 18g... maybe both? :D www.riogrande.com/product/copper-square-wire-dead-soft/132410GP/?code=132418 You select the gauge, then add the spool, then select the next square gauge then add the spool to the cart, etc for each gauge you want to buy. They are all 1 pound spools. Rio sells all the metal, so if you want silver, gold, etc, you can also shop with them. The more you buy, the better the prices get. Have fun! Let me know if you have any more questions.
Thank you, Aleita! The Round wooden dowls are .5 inch in diameter, .75 and 1 inch... I have PVC pipes (can be found in plumbing in the hardware store) that are larger... 1.25 inch, 1.5, and 2 inch... the square and rectangle dowels are pieces of wood from my garage I think but you probably can find square and rectangle dowels at the hardware store too, they range from 1 inch wide x 1, ...1 wide x 1.5... the smallest one I have might be .5 wide x .75 inch long... tic tac mint containers work great, vitamin bottles that are hard enough to take the wire pressure... I use bic lighters to shape long slope earring hooks... chapsticks, and lipsticks, mascara bottle, they all work great... I hope that helps and gives you some ideas! I will do a follow up short video for Members today and/or tomorrow with some additional information. Great question, thank you again! I look forward to seeing you this weekend for a fun Livestream!
@@PerfectlyTwistedJewelry Hi Susan, Aleita Jewelry here, thank you so much for letting me know the measurements of the jewelry forms that you use. My hubby is an Engineer and of course he got on his CAD design app and designed some variations based on your measurements plus several more. He will be taking them to a hardware/lumber store later today to have made including oval dowels. I would like to send you the diagrams to share with other students as they might find them very helpful. what is your email to send to?

Thanks, Julie, I use ProtectaClear from everbritecoatings.com
They have a jewelry page you can read up on the product.
Plz recommend me which gauges of sq n half round to get plz
OMG I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THE EXACT SAME THING ... SQUARE & HALF ROUND 😃👌💯
My son gifted me A Riogrande spree,want to get 3lbs of sq n hr cause Izzy users them quite often in her tutorials, wanted to be prepared for the livestream this weekend
Yeah! I just sent you some of the links to the copper wires you asked about. Now you will have both squares and round wires correct? You can blend them too! Yeah for your son!
Hi Melanie! My tutorials use a lot of 18g square for frames, 20g squares for add on decorative wires (sometimes smaller frames)... 22g half round for bale wraps and ties, I also weave with 28g and 26g round.
All of my tutorials should work with either square or round wires, so if you have round wires onhand, you can also use them and sub where you see square frame wires.
Having said that... here are the links to Riogrande.com where I buy wire... they sell in large quantity but it really is the better to best price in volume... there are shops on Etsy that sell in smaller spools too.
The half round wire I always use is 22g half round.
Here is the link... select the gauge, they sell spools by 1 pound.

For square, I'd get 20g and/or 18g... maybe both? :D

You select the gauge, then add the spool, then select the next square gauge then add the spool to the cart, etc for each gauge you want to buy. They are all 1 pound spools.
Rio sells all the metal, so if you want silver, gold, etc, you can also shop with them. The more you buy, the better the prices get. Have fun!
Let me know if you have any more questions.
@@PerfectlyTwistedJewelry sry didn't want to be bother,but tkz
I use my husband PVC too ❤
I love the PVC! :D
Those accidents looked like something you could use
Hi would you mind providing the dimensions of the wooden pieces?
Thank you, Aleita! The Round wooden dowls are .5 inch in diameter, .75 and 1 inch... I have PVC pipes (can be found in plumbing in the hardware store) that are larger... 1.25 inch, 1.5, and 2 inch... the square and rectangle dowels are pieces of wood from my garage I think but you probably can find square and rectangle dowels at the hardware store too, they range from 1 inch wide x 1, ...1 wide x 1.5... the smallest one I have might be .5 wide x .75 inch long... tic tac mint containers work great, vitamin bottles that are hard enough to take the wire pressure... I use bic lighters to shape long slope earring hooks... chapsticks, and lipsticks, mascara bottle, they all work great... I hope that helps and gives you some ideas! I will do a follow up short video for Members today and/or tomorrow with some additional information. Great question, thank you again! I look forward to seeing you this weekend for a fun Livestream!
@@PerfectlyTwistedJewelry Hi Susan, Aleita Jewelry here, thank you so much for letting me know the measurements of the jewelry forms that you use. My hubby is an Engineer and of course he got on his CAD design app and designed some variations based on your measurements plus several more. He will be taking them to a hardware/lumber store later today to have made including oval dowels. I would like to send you the diagrams to share with other students as they might find them very helpful. what is your email to send to?
Thank you, Aleita! I got them and I will share the image with the Membership, I appreciate you very much!
Very nice tutorial I’m extremely new using wire but find this extremely helpful to begin my journey ❤
Thank you so much, Vera, I have some great videos for beginners as well as beginner article videos. I hope you enjoy!
Excellent ideas! Thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you, Cannsanders!
