Finally a creative soul that doesn't apologize about manicure or missing nailpolish! I watch videos to expand the depth of my creativity, not to watch people's choice of nailpolish or length of fake nails..
Just had autoplay on, your video popped up and I kept watching :D That treble clef is just what I been looking for. I'll watch that video after this one. And you just got a subscriber more..
I'm btw agreeing on the apologizing of your work. You know what you are doing. You should be more confident. Your work is beautiful and you are one of the better to teach others. You go girl!
Well then, I refuse to apologize for apologizing! ;) Seriously though, thank you SO much for the kind words, and the sub! I hope you have a lovely day.
Manicured, long, acrylic nails annoy me in a tutorial. The long nails get in the way of the process and I can’t see it well.
Your hands look like someone who uses them for artistic endeavors.
By the way... LOVE this tutorial.
Jocelyn your work is stunning! I am inspired every time I find your videos. Thank you for sharing.
I have just watched you for the first time. I do wirewrap myself and I appreciate your work very much. Your work and the way you handle your work is art. You are a skilled craftsman!

Do you have any tutorials showing "How to make bails that are larger, such as for a larger crystal OR cabochon??" I just started teaching myself how to wire wrap pendants & even though my pieces are quite good, for the lack of experience (LOL), the bails are what give me grey hairs!
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Many thanks, Kimberly
Enjoyed this a lot. Thank you for sharing. Amazed on how delicate your hands work with the wire.
I love all your tutorials! They are amazing!
Wonderful tutorial! Thank you for sharing your talent.
Thank so much for both tutorials Clef and this one, you are very detailed. I enjoyed them. I have not used the silver filled wire is that a good choice for anything you would use sterling silver? How does it hold up to wear?
Loving your tutorials and learning so much. Thank you so much for taking the time to make and share them!!
Jocelyn your work is absolutely stunning. I can't wait for more tutorials. I wondered if you use a tumbler to shine your pieces?
Hi, we love your video. With your permission, we'd like to post this on our social media pages and credit you / link your account. Please let me know. Thanks.
Did you say "I went shooting this morning?" LOL
+Jocelyn D. Those are my two favorite hobbies :)
what do you shoot?
as a female shooter & jeweler, thank you for saying that so casually. I do that as well; some people freak but most just are ok. The more we can make shooting an activity that normal people do, the less trouble we'll have. great little bail, too.
why the thumbs down? wonderful tutorial...so glad no music ,,,and yes agree with the acursedragon who cares about the nails,,,thank you so much for a wonderful video,,,, so pleased i found you
Thanks so much for sharing your expertise. I find your videos very well done & clear. I'm attempting to create a bail for a chandelier crystals with little success. The crystal is ~3-1/2" long x ~1/2" thick. Have you any videos that might help me? I'm a seed beader & haven't much experience wire wrapping. Sure hope you can help.
I love your channel, keep up the fantastic work! I make similar vids too :)
Walmart has Artistic wire and a few others. I like them to try out my pattern first before using the more expensive wire.
Thank you for sharing. Fantastic video tutorial
Thank you for sharing! I am enjoying your videos very much! I have that same ruler with the numbers wearing off. :)
Hi! Love your tutorial. My 22 gauge wire looks smaller and softer than yours. It is Zebra wire coated copper. Will it work as well? Thanks!
Just subscribed to your channel. I am no longer intimidated by this technique. Thank you so much for sharing.
A fantastic video. I'm now a subscriber to your channel!
Thank you for the tutorial. Now I know :)
This a very helpful and easy to understand video. I was able to this, with your instructions, easily. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thank You I can now make a larger version to attach my handmade pendants to my handmade crochet beaded rope necklaces 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💖👌🏾👍🏽
Just recently found your tutorials. Very helpful and you explain everything so clearly. Now to try it myself. ;)
This has been so helpful!!! Thank you so much. Beautiful work and excellent tutorial!
This I can't wait to try! You do such beautiful work... :)
Love this tutorial as well as the others! Please keep them coming. Your a great instructor!
thank you for your videos, they are very helpful. And thank you for not having super long fake fingernails. I hate watching a tutorial where the fake nails are in the way. I enjoy and appreciate your videos.
Thank you for sharing! Easy to follow. Great explainations!
Jocelyn, I absolutely LOVE your tutorials. You are so helpful. I can tell you really love what you do and you want others to learn as well. Thanks so much!
Can we use Aluminum wire 20G?
Or is it too soft?
my thumb twin! i love it! great tutorial
my Mom has the same thumbs!
Just seeing this video for the first time and came here to say this! Thumb twins
I enjoyed learning about making a bail. thank you.
Can you tell me about the pliers with the blue handles? Are those needle nose?
Thanks! Do they scratch up your wire?
So refreshing to watch, and thanks for sharing this.
Wonderful !! Thanks so much
Great , easy to follow tutorial. TFS
Elaine
Very nice Jocelyn, thanks !!
Thank you for this excellent tutorial!
Thank you very much for the tutorial!
Hi, can I ask where you get your silver wire?
She gets if from riogrande.com
you make every thing look so easy
Another great tutorial! Thank you!
Where do you get your chains?
Thank you. You are an articulate and patient teacher.
Love you classes
Great tutorial! Thank you.
what do you use as a base when you are hammering the loops flat? metal tiles or something like that? it looks easier and cheaper than getting a jewellery anvil.
It's a 4" square steel jeweler's bench block. You can find them on Amazon for pretty cheap!
Hello, where did you purchase your flush cutters at? I have a different looking one that i've used for jewelry making for the past 11 yrs, but they are shorter & not so pointy (if you know what i mean?). Yours are perfect for wire wrapping as they look more precise.
Thanks much, Kimberly
Do you have any websites you can suggest where to learn what "dead soft" means and other terms used in Jewel crafting? Sorry if this is a repeat question but I'm very new to this type of art.
Good night. I am in México city and I have bought a mini anvil but I dont know how to use it, would you help me with a tutorial?
Thank you very much.
Best regards.
Juan Ramón Flores.
How do you wrap wire around a bracelet to hang pendants? Thank you!!!
Just had your thyroid removed and still have the strength and love to share your talent with others. Bless you. Thanks a lot.
@Leslie You seem like a know it all. As I learned from life's experience. No one really likes no it alls. Oops grammatical errors, YOWZA!
Lydia! I just watched your flower tutorial! You are a fantastic teacher! I was wondering where you purchase your wire? I live in Hawaii and its extremely expensive. Could you recommend any places for me? Thanks :)
Just curious, but why do you use round wire rather than half-round wire when binding the two sides together? Is it simply what you had on hand or is there a specific technical reason? Thanks! Love your jewelry and videos by the way!
Thank you, very helpful tut.. you make it look so easy. I just did a briolette on a piece dichro I made and thought I could make these for all my music lover friends.
Yours are so nice though, hope I can do them as nice :)))
Would this bail work on heavier and thicker pendants as glass too? The pendants will normally be 4-6 mm thick.
Hi what are you blue pliers called please as I cant find any like them. Are they chain nose pliers? Thanks. Great video too
Ok how well will this bail hold a titanium wire wrapped around the top of an arrow head. Really needing to redo my arrowhead necklace. I am looking to use a 24in leather cord as the foundation. The wire will go around the indents tightly
on the arrowhead then soddered shut as a ring. Have another piece of the same wire wrap across not over, and sodder the ends to the handmade ring. Still leaving enough room for the bail to go on. The arrowhead Itself is about two inches long, and the top is two centimeters wide (one and a half cm counting where the indents start separately). I am looking into using at least a 20 gauge wire.
Wonderful, I love your work x
Very beautiful bail! It makes nice bail for even a pair of earrings as a single decorative bail I think. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing!
Hi! Thanks for the tutorial! What is that wire called? Where can I buy that big spool?
Thanks a ton for the info!
You are so good!!! I like sa you teach us ! May I know where do you buy your silver wire? Thank you so much! Alexandra
Thanks. This is perfect.
THIS IS THE PERFECT BAIL FOR MY FRONT-DRILLED STONE..CANNOT WAIT TO MAKE IT. BLESSINGS!
Thank you for your tutorials. I have been trying to make a dollar $ sign but fail miserably. DO you have a tutorial on that?
Wow! Very nice. I also like the treble pendant so I will be visiting that link to learn how to make that too. Thanks for sharing.
Nice job! Thanks for the informative tutorial! 😊🌸
You are an excellent communicator and a selfless contributor for novice crafters like many of us!
Perfect simplicity, Thank you!!

THANK YOU FOR THE TUTORIAL, AND JUST WONDERING IF YOU HAVE TO PUT BOTH BAILS ON THE PENDANT OR IF YOU COULD USE JUST ONE OF THE BAIL

First why do two bails for a very lightweight pendant?Secondly why do the wrapping after the bails are done?

Enjoyed this a lot thank you for your videos.
But those thumbs though....Genetic advantage? You decide.
Haha, they seem to be more of a disadvantage when it comes to things like playing the piano, but who knows!
Thank you
