DIY Wire-Wrapped Hook Clasp & Loop

A quick, 5-minute, unbreakable clasp and loop. Why buy findings when you can make your own?
NOTE: There is no audio, except for near the end when my cat jumped onto the back of my chair and started to claw at it... but hey, it wouldn't be the internet without a cat trying to ruin something, right?

I LOVE how this is a silent tutorial. Simple, no fluffy and wordy, long explanations while waving the finished product in front of the camera to where you have to ffwd through to the action. Thanks for the thorough tutorial. So simple and easy to follow! I'm going to look up more of her videos!

[@karendorminey8493]

Gayle, I can't tell you how much this video has helped me. I have plate and screws in my wrists and it can be very hard to make certain things. People go so fast on these videos and you take your time for us. Thank you from the heart.

[@GayleBird]

You are SO welcome!! I have chronic pain myself so I understand.

[@katherinemjs1788]

Thanks for this--I'm a jewelry maker, but never made my own closures. I'm making a last-minute necklace for my mother in law, and she prefers hooks rather than the fancy Bali closures I have. So--watched your video and was able to make a hook and eye closure in just a minute!

[@mariachaneva4869]

Thank you for posting. I liked that there is no music or any other distraction

[@pathazanov6341]

My hooks and eyes don't look good. I needed help and found your tutorial. You clearly show how to make them. Exactly the style I was trying to make. Thank you so much.

Hi, I just want to thank you for a great video; it is easy to see how to do the clasp and hook and I enjoy the silence! :)

[@Protesto2012]

Some soothing spa music would be nice too. :) I used German 18 gauge wire and it came out beautiful!

Thank you so much! My son had a charm he wanted on a longer cord. I had rawhide for the cord, but couldn't find a good clasp. This worked perfectly!

[@GayleBird]

Excellent!!

Very nice - I try to make it too.

[@psychedelicpython]

Nice! I may have to invest in a pair of Wubbers.

[@lb5453]

Very nice visual. what kind of wire and gauge?

[@virtuosavip]

Muito bom seu trabalho

[@OTRTruckersWife]

I would have liked it if you talked about what you were doing. I liked the visual but it was hard to tell what you were doing when the camera would go out of focus. I did like the video however! :)

[@ashadominicafernandes461]

Nice. Can you please tell me the length of the wire and which guage you have used .Will be extremely useful .

[@Lessz959]

Where can I find a small enough wire for a rope necklace?

[@AngelEyesProducts]

How did you make the bracelet?

[@ChristineCreativ]

Hallo du liebe Kreative,

Nette Grüße ChristineCreativ

[@cleocat562]

Some audio would have been nice. At least what's the gauge of The wire?

[@hawaiikawaii8175]

Hello! What's that thing at 0:14 on the right side. Is it a hook? What type if hook?

[@GayleBird]

I don't see anything at 0:14!

[@gabrielledeustuahochmuth6574]
