Remember it's hand made. Hand made doesn't mean perfect as in machine, manufactured, but has that touch of authenticity🤗, yes!!!
I love that you showed us your whole process. The ones who edit out make it difficult for others to learn the trucks and tips to shorten our errors. I love that you used round wire. Everyone uses flat, and it’s harder to find and more expensive. Thanks for. Your teach!
Even better I really like when people are really honest so thanks don't mind watching you struggle I do it all the time.
I'm glad you didn't edit it. It teaches us how to fix our mistakes and let's us know not to get all stressed out! You did great. Thank you
Perfect tutorial-i made for my adult daughter and added a Pisces sign-she loves
Thank you
Just made two pendants and love the way they came out!!! A word of advice to wire-workers using tarnish-resistant (and thus, coated) wire -- Hammering the tips can cause the coating to flake off. As far as I know, there's no remedy for this. I found that careful pinching of the crescent tips, followed by the "twist" you suggested, creates a sufficiently pleasing point without the need to hammer. Of course, if you're using bare metal wire, the hammering works great. Love this design, as I do all your others. Thanks so much.
They have sealants that you can brush/spray on or you can use clear nail polish.
Could you not put a teatowel over it or something as u hammer ?
@@sandyorloff8760 They are usually to seal the bare copper. It won't hide the flaking
@@sheiskayla9229that might pattern the wire.
I hammer my wire and all I do is break it, 😭.
Thank you for keeping all of the fidgety parts in your video. ❤ It's helpful to know those parts, and it's nice to know that even the best of the best must at times fidget!
I'm glad you kept the whole process in there, people can see that there is a long road to making hand crafted items look so beautiful!
You have the true heart of a teacher! You shared your struggles so that we would persevere when we encountered the same issues. Just discovered your tutorial today; what a blessing!!
Yes! to Debbie's comment - showing us how to adjust to get out of a tight spot is so valuable, we feel less like dorks. 😁 Thank you! 🙂 I love your work & this pendant is delightful! 💗
I love this so much.. wonderful helpful tutorial..I need the extra bits showing me the struggle.. thankyou ❤😊
Awesome. Thank you for explaining about wire size while bending the wire for the bail. That makes perfect sense.
I've gorgeous a rose bead made with rose quartz and some chips to make this. I will use stainless steel wire on it.
Thank you so much for sharing this. Love them so much. ❤ Awesome job. 😊
I really enjoyed your tutorial. It's pretty nice to see the fact that even the best wire wrappers can have a difficult time just like a beginner. You're so very kind and have a very pleasant voice thank you for sharing this.
Just one of the most beautiful moons i have see n easier. Its just beautiful. Im now a full subscriber. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You're right! Some days the wire just won't go where you want it to go!😂 It takes a lot of patience😅. Thank you for sharing this beautiful project!❤
In addition to being surprisingly interesting,…cute as a button. Found that I may be making gifts for people that I hadn’t expected.
clear easy to follow instructions "Thank You"
Thank you so much for this tutorial 💗, I'm beginner and struggling with some projects, you explain process so good 👍
I Love that you DID NOT edited out how many times you had to hammer and mess with the wire. It shows that you actually have to work at it and it isn't something that just goes into place. Thank you for that
Love thouse
Very glad you decided to make this video, they're gorgeous. There's no need to wiz through a project like you said messing with the wire is part of wire work.
Hello from Japan (^ - ^)! I recently found your channel and love your work and tutorials best among all other wire weaving ones.
So beautiful with a native spirit. I could never find such a attractive work in my country. Just keep creating spiritual jewelry.
I plan to make all jewelry in your tutorials!
thank you for watching!!
The struggle is real 🤣 but worth it. Thanks for sharing ✌️❤️
Thank you for not editing your video. I am quite good at learning new crafts buy am really struggling with wire. I've been trying for a week and I've made some ok things but nothing I would wear or gift to anyone. I was starting to think it just isn't for me. It looks so easy for others. You've made me want to keep at it.
I love this! I’m a beginner and I think I can do it! Can’t wait to see!
Gorgeous wire work. Great tutorial, thanks. For making lots of these, what about a flat piece of square plywood with small nails in place where you want to bend? To make such a template, you could first draw your pattern, tape it to the plywood square, add the strategically-placed nails, then remove the pattern. I'm only imagining this in my mind, so i might be overlooking something
My 2nd attempt not to much of a train wreck I will continue this project until I get it, thanks 🙏
Girl I have made stuff that I fiddle with for hours til I get it the way I want it so yeah its always like this.
Oh girl I know. Normally off camera I don't mind, but on camera it can be flustering.
@@TheSirenandThePirate well yeah because SOME people might not want to watch that but in a way I do because then I see even a professional can make mistakes and also I learn how they fix them.
Very good tutorial, loved the design. ❤
I really like that you didn't edit it out. More real.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I loved that you showed the struggle!
Love these! Nice to know others deal with misbehaving wire too😀
I finally watched close to see what you mean about hairpin. Big difference for me. BTW I really like making these. Thank you for your video ✌🏽️
As an artist you are 100% correct. (About the way things go one day to the next). So much so that I Fear even making a video at this time. I can use some words that aren't so nice and sometimes I just crush my entire project and start over. Lol do don't worry you are the person that would be selling more for the time and effort you put into your pieces. Thank you for sharing it all. Good luck to you! Awesome tutorial; amazing piece. Very esthetic and trending.
8:52 I’m glad you keep stuff in. You are right. The thought process of stringing beads correctly and wire wrapping is more time consuming artistically
Ty , love the simplicity
I tried using the tip of my round nose pliers to make the points. Gave a much sharper edge.
Beautifull & inspiring. 30:07 Lidia
Luvin' this piece your making. Will give it a try...hopefully, seems very "fiddley"...❤
Just found you. I am going to make this as soon after I subscribe and thumbs up your channel. ❤
Love this design ! Just started with wire wrapping, really enjoy it.
I am just starting to wrap wire. Your tutorial is very nicely done . You make it seam kinda easy. I’m having a harder time starting then I thought I would
Start off with some of my beginner tutorials and check out my "why your weave looks wack" videos for troubleshooting. Good luck!
I'm so glad you kept that part..lol...cause I was getting ready to throw mine away & probably not try again...🤭! Whether it turns out wearable..that's yet to be determined...
Keep going...I still have trouble with this design. Sometimes it's great...sometimes shit 🤪
I’m so happy I found this video. I make real time videos myself as I feel a lot of nuance is lost in editing. This is a beautiful piece and a wonderful video. Thank you for sharing your time and talent. ❤
It's great that you show just how it is done. This is such a pretty pendent, Thank you!
So beautiful! I guess nothing that lovely comes without a lot of time and effort. Thank you for sharing your ideas with us! Love the final product!😊💜💙
I always use bare copper wire so it will take the patina well .
Thank you so much, such a beautiful art work
When I have more experience I will make this design.
I had found you a little over a year ago I believe and you were moving and had bought a cute little store and then I lost you but by serendipity I found you again ! I love your designs and style. I hope you are doing well. Stay safe.
Absolutely gorgeous 😍
Definitely going to try this!
Fab..U..Lous! ❤💎❤
Those pendants are absolutely gorgeous! I’m going to start looking for my stash of wires! Thanks for a great tutorial! 👍
Hello, I Loved how you explain, I am not new in making jewelry. Thank You So Much 🌻
Thank you for showing us how you work with wire! I love these moons.
Very, very nice!!!
They are all beautiful. The struggle is real❤️
I love this ❤thank you for sharing it.
Thank you. this is beautiful! Can’t wait to try it!
Would make super cute earrings as well! Thank you for the tutorial ☺️
I admire your words of encouragement! I’ll keep practicing and practicing
Just found you... love this moon! Thanks for making this tutorial!
WHAT A GREAT LEVEL OF CREATIVE GENIOUS!!
Aww shucks ☺️ thanks! Thank you for watching!!
Love it! The beauty of handcrafted is it’s not always perfect❤️
Thank you for keeping the whole process when shaping and hammering. There is so much I can learn from your video. For me, having the hand movements in the video shows how to fix the little issues I may have when recreating a piece. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world your design is awesome!
You are so welcome!
Oh man. Finally bought 16 gauge and was finishing my bale when one of my pointed ends I hammered broke
❤ If this is a pendent, there is no reason to have a perfectly matched set. What ever is perfect to you. Thank you for sharing.
"Doesn't have to be perfect..." and you made it PERFECT :) ❤
Thank you for this!!! Would love to know if you could show how to make this to hang sideways rather than upside down? Love love love this!!!
I'll see what I can do but basically I would follow the same principles and just move the bail to the side. Thanks for watching :)
Thank your for this great tutorial. I love how u left all the fussy/difficult stuff in 💜
You’re brilliant I couldn’t figure out how you were going to do that
Thank you! 🧡
on the hammering, you can also use a cloth on the hammerhead or a nylon head hammer, as well as on the anvil to keep it looking smoother
That is beautiful. I have been studying some astrology and some meditation practices and understanding how it’s all connected. Thank you for sharing that
That's a beautiful pendant; they're all beautiful! Thank you so much~ 🌹💫
Genial genial genial
I wish could find those beads they're beautiful
Very nice design. Enjoyed the video. Can't wait to make one! Thank you!
I agree that it's easy to get out of practice. I appreciate watching the process. I don't have a decent chasing hammer, but I think I'll get one soon. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. You are a good teacher. Patient.
I’ve wanted to make a crescent moon pendant for some time and I love your design! Thank you so much for sharing!
Lots of good tips and tricks!
Very pretty
Love this!
Thank you. You can do a lot with the frame like you said. I did struggle but the first time it looks so good I'll try again.
Haces un trabajo excelente 👏🏼👏🏼entiendo muy poco el inglés ,poro como lo haces ,es entendible ,muchas gracias.
just made my first one and it came out pretty good for first time(even I didn't have the same kind of stones). And I only spend less than two hours.. my friends when they saw me wearing it, they loved it so much that they asked me to make them too! Thanks for your tutorial
That is very pretty. Love that. ❤ ❤ ❤ Love the silver one.
