I thought it was my kiddo, but now I'm not so sure.. lol. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Hi Elizabeth 👋 I've just subscribe to your channel 👍😄 Thanks for sharing 👍😃👋
Hi there and welcome!! 🥰
Your work is beautiful and your explanation is wonderful. I am newer into making rings. Would you possibly provide guidance on suggested wire and weave lengths for common American ring sizes? That part is still challenging for me to gauge.
So happy to hear it! I don't really have a set length for weaves. Normally, I'll take a scrap piece of wire and wrap it around the ring mandrel at the desired size, then I cut the excess wire and use that length for the weave. I normally don't use a set number because it really depends on the style of ring you're making and the size of the cabochon. For example, let's say your cabochon is 8mm. You'll take the length of wire you measured from the mandrel and then subtract about 6-8mm for the weave. You can also check your work before cutting off your weaving wire and wrap the weave around the mandrel at the desired size and then set you cabochon on top of the band. If there's room between each end of the weave for the cabochon, you're golden. If there's too much room, you may need to weave a little more. Hope that helps?
Love ❤❤❤
Thank you! ♥
Hi Ellie's I Want to Thank You So Much for Sharing,Ellie do You have A Weaving Tutorial on This Woven Pattern?
Hi there! I don't yet, but I hope to have some weaving specific video uploaded soon!
Ola mui ermoso tu trabajo mencanta ojala que yo pudiera aserlo
Hola ermosisemo mencanto
¡Gracias! ¡Con práctica, puedes hacer cualquier cosa! Deseándote lo mejor.
‼️Hi Ellie‼️ You forgot to mention the size of Cab you are using? It looks to me like a “6mm” but with camera enlargement appears like an “8mm”
Your work is so incredibly GORGEOUS. Your weaving is IMPECCABLE!! I only recently found your channel. I too LOVE weaving soooo much‼️🫶🏻🙏🏻💕🇨🇦
Hi there, Lynn! Sorry about that! I used 6mm for this ring, but you can use an 8mm too if that's all you have. ☺️ Thanks so much! I'm happy to share in the love of wire weaving! 😉
She did say size of the cab when stating wire gauges.
Good job! I like it. Can I use 26 gauge wire?
You certainly could! I just prefer using 28 gauge for most of my pieces.
@@ellieshandcrafted Ok, thanks
My ring absolutely does not look like yours but I tried lol.
My huge issue is that I'm a necklace/earring/bead bracelet maker so I don't really have any cabochons to work with so I'll just have to remember to use Way more wire so I can cover more of my round stones.
Mine is wearable but not oxidized yet and if I don't do that, I get a pretty green ring around my finger lol
Thanks a lot! I really like these rings but it may just be a little harder than I'm quite ready for 😁
That's where it all begins! It takes a little time to get the hang of weaving and especially setting stones, but once you do, you can do just about anything! I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed the tutorial! And you're more than welcome to join the FB group and ask questions there as well. 🥰 facebook.com/groups/1435517036944286
lovely work....what[s the name of the plier with the orange tip for holding the wires. Thanks
Thanks! It's a spring clamp that I got from the hardware store, but you can find them on Amazon as well. :)
Hi, I’m going to give this a try. Are you using Round or Square wire for this?
I use round for these rings, but you could certainly interchange the two. 😊
@@ellieshandcrafted thanks! Ill try it out with round first and then see about the square. Beautiful design. Thanks!
@@dancynfairy You're welcome!
Thanks for the ring tutorial. Cabochon rings are my challenge. Just a note: if you keep tools in the camera view your camera can’t focus on the ring or project. It’s focused on whatever is behind your hands.
I'm so happy to here you enjoyed the tutorial! Thanks so much for the tip!! I'll do my best to keep them out of the way in the future. :)
My wires keep being difficult to wrap maybe I’m using too thick?
I suppose it depends on what wires you are using. I typically use a thinner gauge for weaving like 28 or 30 gauge. What gauges are you using?
Could you use a bead instead of a small cab?
You could, but you want to make sure that you compensate for the size of the ring, since the bead will protrude underneath. Hope that helps! ☺️
I am a complete newbe, and I tried that. Not a good result, It's too bulky, and hard to keep in place. Did you make it work?
Can I use a bead instead?
You probably could, but you'll want to make sure you account the added depth of the bead as it will probably affect the ring size. Let me know if you have any more questions. :)
I think you forgot to mention at what point or inches from the beginning to start weaving on the three base wires.
Thanks for catching that! Yes, so I like to make sure that there is at least 2 - 2.5 inches prior to the weave. Hope that helps!
@@ellieshandcrafted yay this is what I was hoping to find in the comments
@@HavicAngel So happy you did! Sometimes I do forget to state certain things in the video, so I'm happy that I have you all to keep me accountable in the comments! ;)
How do you figure out the measurements for the ring size, what formula do you use. You touched on it during the video but never said how to figure it out. Any help would be great?y appreciated❤
Hi there! I use a scrap piece of wire or a thread and measure around the ring mandrel on the ring size I want. That will tell me how many inches for the band. Then just add 6“ to that measurement. 😊 Hope that helps!
@ellieshandcrafted Thank You so much🥰
@@elizabethrogers6897 You're welcome!
@@elizabethrogers6897 You're welcome!
What's the name of this weave??
I'm not entirely sure what it's called, but it's similar to a modified soumak weave, but instead of using 2 wires, you use 3. Hope that helps!
