You are such a great teacher! I’ve now made a few pieces of jewelry using your videos and I’m grateful for your help. Thank you.

[@DJMeCa]

I learn so much watching your videos! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise!

[@Ty-ri7dy]

Thanks for this. You've given me some new ways to use my mandrels and come up with some interesting shapes!

[@allisonkane338]

Great tutorial and an awesome teacher......keep these great videos coming, Susan!!! You rock!!

[@rapsodynblu]

Thank you so much, this video was great. It packed a lot of information that I needed. Again...Thank You!

[@Brandyp2010]

I like your style of teaching. You show users exactly how to do it... I've noticed some people just rush through without explaining the technique. ..
Thank you 👏

[@WomanUnfiltered]

I've been making jewelry for years, but have shied away from making shapes with wire because they never quite come out as I want. Your video makes this so much more understandable than many I've seen. Now it's time to break out the wire and start practicing. Thanks!

[@lisaforbes7325]

What kind of jewelry were you making before?

[@WomanUnfiltered]

@lisaforbes7325 I'm all natural jewelry. I've been making bracelets from 12ga wire, earrings and necklaces of all sorts and dabbling wire weaving. Any hoops I've done were bought as hoops for me to add crystals or stones to via wire wrap or as dangles from the hoops.

[@erikadobosz4873]

I love your videos, you make it look very easy! I have most of the tools, but not the wubber! That’s something I’ll have to buy!!!

[@lorettamitch-lynn9389]

I am back reviewing how to make shapes with wire. Thank you Susan because I have followed you from the start at JTV and I know I have improved because I understand better and have improved my skills.

[@cbaxtianful]

You are amazing I just bought some wire and this tutorial encourages me to try some shapes with it.

[@klcwarchitect]

If you want to make the loops exactly the same size on the mandrel, just mark the location with a black Sharpie. You can remove the Sharpie mark later with Goof Off.

[@Rael64]

tape works well too

[@Lo_N_cLo]

U can also use rubbing alcohol to easily wipe away away dried-on permanent marker from any smooth/slick surface. Always do a spot test on the surface in a hidden inconspicuous area first, to ensure the alcohol is safe to use on that surface first! Never use rubbing alcohol on your wooden or finished furniture please. Rubbing alcohol also works very well when ur trying to remove alcohol based -or- sharpie permanent marker & even some types of dye stains from ur cotton clothes as well! Start by placing the cloth on a clean white towel or rag, with the ink mark/dye mark, stain side down onto the towel/rag and use another white rag/towel saturated in rubbing alcohol to dab the inside of the cloth stain with (ideally u should use some rags that you don’t care about ruining for this, b/c when ur finished it will be probably be stained). Using the rag saturated with rubbing alcohol, dab the the ink/dye mark on ur cloth repeatedly by pressing down on the stain until the stained cloth is fully saturated, and the ink/dye begins to seep back out of the cloth in the same direction that it entered the cloth and out onto the bottom towel that u had placed underneath ur cloth in the beginning. As the ink/dye transfers out from ur cloth and into the towel and the dabbing rag, you will need to regularly readjust the cloth and towel underneath, so that u are always dabbing with and pressing onto a clean section of the towel with a clean section of ur dabbing rag (so u don’t transfer the stain back onto ur cloth). When the ink has all been transferred out of ur cloth, rinse ur cloth well with cold water to remove excess rubbing alcohol & then immediately run it through a cold cycle wash in the machine with ur normal detergent and then hang to dry somewhere inside ur home, away from any heat source and direct sunlight. (don’t ever subject any stained cloth to a hot wash cycle or a heated dry, until u have treated the stain, rinsed the stain well, washed the stain, let the cloth have plenty of time to cool dry on its own or in front of a cool fan, and then still not until after u have carefully rechecked the cloth after it’s dry, just to be absolutely certain that u got all of the stain removed from ur cloth first, before EVER allowing any heat to get near it!) A hot wash or heated dry will potentially ruin ur cloth for good if any of the ink/dye still remains on the cloth when it is subjected to the source of heat. Heat will almost always “set in” a stain for good!
