Very good information, thank you. Sorry, it's 3 years later, but the information is invaluable 😊
Thank you lovely 😊
Tysm for this lovely tutorial!
I hate premade findings because they're either made of a wire that gives me a bad reaction or are awkward for me to wear. I can't wait to start experimenting with making my own findings 😄
Thank you! I have done 3 out of the 4 and I am thrilled with the results. Thank you so much for making it so easy to follow up!
Thank you, I’m so pleased you found this helpful.
Lovely Designs. Love them All
Thank you .
Enjoyed watching You're Tutorial. X
Your teaching style is so friendly and reassuring. Some instructional videos make a newbee feel like,
"oh no! I'll never be able to make that"...but yours are warm and inviting and full of confidence.
Thank you for your honesty.
I love these! A lot of ear wires that I can purchase just look cheap.
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Katie - Is the wire that you use dead soft? Also, what kind of beads did you use here? They're gorgeous!
Enjoying your videos! Thank you for sharing what you have learned.

Hi Katie - I love this video! If I may ask, what type of wires do you typically use to make your own ear wires (plated/filled? half-hard / dead-soft)?
Hi, thank you 😊 I prefer bare or plated copper wire, the wire I use is usually a half hard type.
@@katieparkerjewellery7277 Thank you for your reply and the information🙂! Looking forward to more of your tutorials.
Could you please tell me how many inches of wire do you use, for each project?
Cool idea, but concise measurements would be helpful
It seemed like 3.5 inches for the standard hooks and 4 or more for the lemon shaped wire depedning on your preference.
😱🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖💖💖
What gauge are these ?
Kim Rodrigues these are all 0.8mm wire U.K gauge 😊
Katie Parker Jewellery So I guess that’s 20 gauge. Thanks so much! 😊😊😊
Where can you get those wire forming pliers at? I can't find them. Cool tool!
Never mind I found them! 😊
@@barbarawood1144, where did you get them?
I've looked and can't find them!
@@jillrenshaw6509 I've used them a couple of times and they work great.
Great, but where did you get them?

Wire price kay aaye
I really wanted to watch this, because your instructions are very good, but the focus kept going in and out. I couldn't finish watching it, sadly.
How much money do you make a month if you sell these?
