You are simply amazing! I love making woven wire pieces but they can take days to complete sometimes. I spend so much of my time over-securing end wires for fear of something coming loose and the backs of many pieces end up being a giant jumbled mess of wires wrapped around each other. watching how you work has most likely cut my time and stress on a piece in half, lol.
Love this and it was so easy to see how you achieve those tight swirls when you do either a counterclockwise or clockwise tiny curl back on itself. Love the music also. Thanks.
Thank you, Nicole for another beautiful tutorial! Watching you via video helps me tremendously. I wanted to mention, if you might ever consider video tutorials for an added charge along with your paid tutorials, I would personally be willing to pay extra for the added video, as watching you really would help me with some of the more difficult tutorials!
Gorgeous ... can you please give some advice - how do you not mangle the base wires (especially the thinner ones) in your left hand as you are starting weave in the middle? Also, I am having a hard time keeping any of the thinner base wires nice and smooth as yours .. When does the DEATH GRIP finally die its own natural death? Thanks YOU ROCK!
Love your work, very impressed. I have a question concerning the wire. I wanted to know if there is wire better than others, name brand, not sure if. should get a certain brand of wire
I am new to wire weaving and absolutely love your designs! The dragon's eye is my favorite! Do you have a tutorial for that design? Also, I noticed you use jump rings often in your designs. Do you make your own jump rings or purchase them?
Thank you very much for taking time to make these tutorials. Truly inspirational! I am a complete beginner and am just starting my first piece now. I would like to wire weave semi precious stones onto a thicker gauge wire (16 ) and have that larger gauge hammered into a long (9-12") swirly design. I have beautiful chandelier crystals to hang from them to create sun catchers. Wondering if your base wires can be different gauges? Or would I weave stones into a nice design and then attach them to the larger gauge. Hammer first or last do you think? Lots of questions....thank you in advance if you have time to comment.Lana
Really you could handle this either way, by weaving with smaller wires and attaching to a larger piece, or weaving with larger wires. Though ultimately it will depend on the size of the stones. And if you plan on hammering, I almost always personally hammer first and attach those hammered elements to my work (or my work to the hammered elements, whichever comes last lol). This way you don't risk accidentally hammering something you didn't want hammered (which has sadly happened to me more times than I care to admit lol). Sounds like a beautiful project with the crystals!
Go Art Yourself Thank you for the reply. Going to achieve my first weaving today. I'm thinking that if my structure is 14 gauge hammered wire then I have to go to thicker for weaving 18 and 24 will be my first try. Will watch more of your videos first!
How do you get a tight weave on the smaller base wires? I tend to pull the weaving wire tightly which often bends my base wires out of place (unless I'm working with 18 gauge ), sometimes leaving a kink.
Really it's just practice. I have a quick video on tension when weaving somewhere on my channel that might help. But it's just a matter of getting used to it. I started with 18 gauge as base wires, moved down to 20, then moved to 22. I think I'm drawing the line there, though. I can't imagine using 24! lol
I've been asking myself this too. I guess it's dead soft wire, from the way how it's behaving in the video. I did the tutorial with hard wire, you need much more strength cause it's reluctant to change its shape :)
Not that I know of. Basically, you can do the same work with stainless steel as you can with copper, so any tutorial using any metal, really, will likely work with stainless steel as well... it's just a matter of getting used to how stiff the metal is and how it moves.
Thank you so much! You are truly wonderful at your craft and so generous to share your knowledge and talent with everyone!
With the music, this was mesmerizing to watch. Thanks so much for posting.
first time wire wrapper here- Guess i no longer need to search anymore channels after viewing yours. you are amazing
An amazing demonstration. Your finger tips must be like iron by now. I love your mastery of wire weaving.
Beautiful creation! Thank you for sharing this about 5 years ago, that I could see them now at 2020 :)
Great tutorial.The back ground music is so soothing.

+Beth Nicholas That's definitely something I might consider in the future!

You are SPECTACULAR!!! Thank you for this amazing tutorial!! Do you have a shop where I can buy supplies?
Love your work, very impressed. I have a question concerning the wire. I wanted to know if there is wire better than others, name brand, not sure if. should get a certain brand of wire

This is truly beautiful. What is that gorgeous bead that you used in this tutorial?
Thank you! It was a strand of agate beads from the local craft store :D

Hi, I would like to know you measure the wire so you can cut it right for setting a stone..??
have you ever tried silver instead of copper..??
grazie bellissimo tutorial meraviglioso progetto
nice!!!beautuful...
Hello first I want to thak you for the tutorial, I would like to know what kind of softness are you using. hard, soft, dead soft, etc...
Thanks
+Myshela From Tanelorn I am using dead soft wire.
I've been asking myself this too. I guess it's dead soft wire, from the way how it's behaving in the video. I did the tutorial with hard wire, you need much more strength cause it's reluctant to change its shape :)
I would be happy to pay for tutorials also!
謝謝你的分享。很美!
Muy bonito
Beautiful ❤️🇩🇰
best mode lol on the wire wrapping
super
you are unbelievable:)
where do you get your wire from?
How do you come up with these ideas?
Why "Calligraphy"? For the life of me I can't figure out the name....love the pendant though! And thank you for the tutorial.
Does stainless steel wire work well for weaving?
Personally, i find it a bear to work with (very springy), but I know several people who use it with weaving and have beautiful results!
Go Art Yourself Any chance they have tutorials on weaving with stainless steel?
Not that I know of. Basically, you can do the same work with stainless steel as you can with copper, so any tutorial using any metal, really, will likely work with stainless steel as well... it's just a matter of getting used to how stiff the metal is and how it moves.
What hardness do you use in the wire?
+Lorraine Brooks almost always dead soft.
ME GUSTA ES EXPECTAKULAR
meraviglioso!!!! ^_^
Where did you get your black tools?
+nana pena They are a Swanstrom set that I got at Rio Grande online
thank yu
do vlog pls
браво супер
+александр баирашевскии Oh, yea, everybody understood!..
It’s staggering how fast you can work. It took me two hours last night to do a two wire, straight length of about four inches of a 5/3 weave. 🤦🏻♀️
