- Hi Guys, in this video I want to show you how to make a wire weaving pendant with a prong set accent stone. (Remember that you can watch in HD (bottom right of video) for better quality)
It somehow reminds me of spring and the abundance of a meadow full of wild flowers so this one is named after the Greek goddess of gardens: 'Antheia.

I don't know how you don't have more subscribers. You are *hands down* the best wire jewelry artist on yt. I am beyond thankful that you post your tutorials on here for free. Not only are your designs original and beautiful, but your instructions are clear and concise. Honestly, your tutorials are better than most of the tutorials other yt artists do that charge $ for them. I, and I'm sure many others, very much appreciate and respect you so so much for that. Thank you
I totally agree.
Aw thank you so much for saying such a thing. I am truly humbled by your kind words...
I have had this account for years, but only started uploading wire tutorials in February this year. Gaining followers in this niche is a really slow process and it will be a lot of consistent effort from my side to make it work. It's still all a learning curve and I am constantly adjusting, but I know it will be a (very) long while before I get anywhere lol. Thank you for your support, it's really appreciated! ❤️
Ditto! This is by far my favorite place to learn...this piece is STUNNING 😍!
@Ghost I totally agree with you.
Because there are no measurements.
Beautifully done, love the detail work. Thank you for sharing your instructions and beautiful result. Blessings to you!
Thank you so much!

this is a fantastic tutorial on creating prong settings with wire. best i've seen. thank you i needed to see this because i have a white linen night coming up and i want to create a piece with large faceted jewels for my hair and i was worried that i wouldn't do a good job with it. but your instruction has given the confidence.
Glad it was helpful! I hope your white linen event was fun and you made a beautiful piece of jewellery to wear for it!
I did it! I actually did it! of course its kinda rough, but I made this piece! There is hope for my wire wrapping future yet. Thank you so much for making these videos.
That's awesome!! Of course there is hope for you! You should see my first pieces haha. Glad you enjoyed it!
OMG! This is so incredible and beautiful! 🥰
Thank you so much!!
Oh my! I'd have to charge a million for this!! Wowza!
Pleased you like it :)
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! 😍🤩😍
Thank you!!
This is a gorgeous design. Your tutorial is very easy to follow. You explain everything clearly and we can always see your work, never covered by your hands like in other tutorials. I will try definitely this. I would have preferred to watch how to secure the gemstone in the prong setting to the frame. Thank you for sharing with us.
You're very welcome! I try to show as much as I can. I will remember to show how to attach the prong setting the next time If you look at the tutorial below, you can see how I attach the prong setting to the frame. It's pretty much the same for most designs.
th-cam.com/video/nsgJEfIy8ig/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=ImbaliCrafts
@@ImbaliCrafts This video doesn't show prong setting. I do see you have another tutorial on prong setting similar to this one however it doesn't attach to a pendant. I would like to see how the gemstone is securely attached by you. Then I want to try it. Thanks for your help!
Love all of your video tutorials. You get right down to it without a lot of extra chatter (which I greatly appreciate) and offer helpful tips along the way. Thanks for sharing your designs! (I recently made your tree of life and it looks great in my window!). I’m a dedicated follower ...
Thank you so much for the feedback! It's my preferred way to learn as well, that is why I keep my videos as short and to the point as possible. I know some like more interaction but I think this works better in lives than recorded tutorials.
Absolutely stunning! Out of all of the tutorials I have watched, this is hands down the most helpful. I didn't even think of wire weaving using square wire (which is my favorite to use) Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and beautiful work ❤️
You are very welcome! I am pleased you find it useful!
Thank you so very much for sharing your talent with us! Your work is beautiful, I would love to be able to wire wrap as well as you! I'm a beginner but I hope to be able to do pieces like yours some day.
Thank you ever so much. 💓 We all start at the beginning! You will definitely be able to hone the skills you have with a bit of practice. xx
Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful ❣🌿🌺🌿
Thank you so much!
absolutely gorgeous! awesome artist! thank you for sharing your creativity!
Thank you so much
Your work is stunning! I love the movement of the wire!
Thank you so much!
I ordered this tutorial and it should be here soon. Can't wait to do this. You are so easy to follow and love your presentation. Look forward to learning more from you.
Hope you enjoy it! It's always nice to hear when someone enjoys my tutorials! Thank you so much for your kind words! 💗
@@ImbaliCrafts You are so very welcome.

You are very welcome! :)
I love your work!
I really appreciate your kind words. Thank you!
So very beautiful!! Thank you for sharing!
You are very welcome! 😊
This piece is exquisite
Thank you!!
How did I only just find this channel. I have a work in progress that I made a prong setting for. And as soon I finished setting the Peridot in it I lost interest in the piece. And stuck it in a drawer. This has inspired me to finish it.
Edit: Smash the Subscribe ✔ hit the bell ✔ thank you again for sharing you techniques. I love the notes up top. I love the detailed list to begin. I mean seriously which one of the 50 tools I have, might I need for this project ✔. You've got a new fan. Can't wait to see what I've missed in past videos. Beautiful pendant. Great Video.
Thank you so much for the nice review! It's really nice to know I could inspire someone to get creative! Thanks for letting me know, made me smile this morning!! :)
Thank You
You're welcome
Gorgeous
Thank you!
Your designs are AMAZING!!! I am so inspired by them and I can't wait to get started. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and creativity! Where do you get such beautiful stones?
Thank you so much! I buy a lot of stones from instagram sellers and ebay. There are many trustworthy sellers on either platform :)
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks!
Thank you so much!! 💗💗
Friendly tip for yah, buy some plasti-dip and dip the tips of your tools to avoid scuffing and marking your wires 😊
Thanks for that! I When I first started out I had a pair of pliers that were coated. Unfortunately I was a bit heavy handed and the coating just didn't last past a few uses lol. Now I just try to be careful and if I nick a wire I polish it out. I have seen a few people use it and it is very useful, thanks for the tip.
Absolutely stunning piece and excellently presented tutorial. Gained a new subscriber here! It has given me the confidence to give it a crack. Do you find half hard square wire better to use as the frame or is dead soft firm enough to use? Looking forward to give this a try, thank you for your amazing guidance! :D
Thank you ever so much!! I am really pleased you are enjoying my content! I tend to use dead soft for all of my projects although, arguably, half hard is better for frame work, but I for me, dead soft has worked just fine if I go with the correct gauge. :) Hope this helps!
Thank you for sharing 🥰🤟🏻💋
You are very welcome!
So pretty ❤️🇩🇰
Thank you! :)
🇿🇦❤️So happy to have found this channel. With the name Imbali, it was a giveaway 😊. Where can I source nice cabs in SA? Would love to try this...
Hellooooo SA!! I am actually from Swaziland or Eswatini as its called now. I have been living in the UK since 2013 but my home is in Swazi. I only just started getting into making stuff when I left but I remember having real difficulties to find materials. I used to go through to Nelspruit to get supplies. There was a little Chinese bead shop that was paradise for me. I am sure you face the same troubles especially as import takes so long!! Unfortunately I don't know where to find stuff over there, but if you buy in bulk from India, it would be worth the wait.
@@ImbaliCrafts thank you! Yes, I read your bio 💓. I will look into India and China suppliers. My closest town is PE, 250km away 🤣. All the best and thank you for taking the time to reply 🌸
@@angieshabraka7194 Yeah that is a bit far lol. India and China is the best and cheapest option for you I think. Just be careful of people selling fakes as I have learnt when I ordered stones from India when I still lived there. Hope you get stuff! 💓
🤩 wow!!!!!!!
😀😀
waw....
❤️
Do you sent kits or/and wires to Denmark?❤🙏 you make you great tutorials
Yes I do! Pleased you like them! 😊
Hi newbie here👍✅🔔🥰
Thanks for visiting! :)
Hi! What brand of wire are you using? Your 26 gauge wire seems so soft and fluid. It seems to weave better than some 28 gauge wire that I’m currently using.
I'm fairly new at wire wrapping and tend to mar the wire. You seem to manhandle the wire. Do you mar the wire and how do you fix it? Thank you
I am just careful not to applie too much pressure with my pliers. You can manhandle wire quite a bit as long as you don't marr it with the pliers the thicker guages are quite forgiving. Not so much the finer gauges though, they tend to get brittle and break quickly.
Hi!! Beautiful skills!! Is your half round dead soft?
Thank you! Yes, all my wire is dead soft. :)
💐BEAUTIFUL💐
Thank you so much!
SUBSCRIBED 😊
Awesomeness! Thank you!
Where do you get your stones, their shapes are so unique
I get a lot of stones from Instagram and ebay :)
@@ImbaliCrafts I’ll go check it out thanks
What shop do get them from on Instagram? I see a lot of sellers on there but I don't know which ones to trust.
@@candiceriley6233 if the question is for me, I’ve only ever bought them from a local store so I don’t know exactly who or what shop to buy from online but hopefully someone can help
@@Julian-ye8pu @Candice Riley If you pay through paypal, you are protected in case of items not delivered etc... I actually never had any issues as most sellers from India I have dealt with are honourable. Just find a seller you like and check if they do paypal. If they do, you should be fine to buy from them as paypal has seller protection. :) Hope this helps.
Wow
I love this but I won't be able to wire wrap for a while as I have a very deep cut in the pad of my index finger.
Oh no! How did you manage that?? I hope you heal quick. It's an unfortunate spot to have a cut because you use that part particular finger for literally everything!
Box cutter slipped and went right into my index finger. Sure hurt.
@@dianejohnson1238 I can't like that status 😖 ouch... I hope you heal quick!!
How do you get your 4 starting wires so straight & kept together?
I just run my fingers along the wire which warms it up a little and helps make it less stiff. You don't really need any fancy tools to do it your fingers do a great job. x
hii what kind of metal do u use?
I use dead soft, bare copper wire, sterling or fine silver depending on the project. This was made with copper.
Where do you buy your stones?
I have suppliers all from all over. I get most from India and a few from China. I buy wholesale as I sell in my shop. You can take a look here if you want. www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ImbaliCrafts or here www.etsy.com/uk/market/imbali_crafts
Hi Nadia hope it’s ok to ask but where do you get your wire from please
Of course! I buy my round wire from wires.co.uk and I sell half round & square on my website if you are in the UK. If you are in the US, Rio grande, monsterslayer or parawire sell wires. Hope this helps :)
Where are the measurements? I don’t see in transcript or under Materials?? Wth?
I usually provide measurements of the stones (at the beginning of the tutorial) as everyone's weaving will yield different results. What does 'Wth' mean? 🤔
Thank you
You're welcome! :)
Thankyou!
You're welcome!
