thanks, very few people explain the fundamentals, I needed this
Since I used to be a teacher myself, I love your method of demonstration!😊😍
Thank you !❤🙏🏾
Simple, effective, sober, elegant….. perfect ! Thank you so much, this is the kind of design I was looking for.
I truly love how you explain in detail and in easy wording how to do a new trick.
Thanks so much. I love the way you take pains over your demonstrations. This is the design I like best because it doesn't detract from the cabochon itself and the bail makes a lovely contrasting design to the otherwise plain front. I think I should be able to do this without too much trouble.
This is the best wire wrap cab I've seen. It's simple looking and beautiful. Patience will be my requirement. Thank you.
I really appreciate how neat your work is compared to other
artists who often do their wraps rather messy. I plan to use this particular
wrap for a sweet elderly lady from my church & need the wrap to look really
clean, elegant & crisp. Thanks again for another great vid.
Thank you very much. It really means a lot to me :-)
I only just found this video but I am hooked. Your instructions along with your video visuals are so explicit and absolute that it becomes an easy task to follow your work, rather than blunder along wondering how the heck to get the same look as yours. You are a really good teacher. I love your pieces too. I subscribed because I really appreciate your skills and as a beginner, I find them easy and non-threatening to start my own pieces. Thank you. You are wonderful. 💖🙏🌻
ERES UN ARTISTA REFINADO Y VER TU TRABAJO SE TRANSFORMA EN UN SENTIMIENTO QUE APRECIO,VIVO EN ARGENTINA,GRACIAS Y HASTA TU PROXIMO VIDEO.

THANK YOU!
Fabulous instructional video! Step-by-step made easy. I can’t wait to try it. This can be used for virtually any shape of cabochon.
I love the way you make the backs as interesting as the front. Thank you, great tutorial.
+Sharon French Thank you. I find that important, specially on pendants, as they will usually flip around while wearing them, and then that's not a problem :-)
BEAUTIFUL!!! :) Absolutely Gorgeous!! Love ALL your videos! You are an Amazing Artist! And a Brilliant teacher. I always learn so much.. someday I hope to be able to wrap. I'm 65 and have never had the chance to get the tools I need.. I'm raising my 8 yr old granddaughter who has cancer. She loves watching your videos with me. :) Making jewelry has always been a dream of mine, sigh.. my hands are starting to go and I've had a few strokes.. so idk if I'll ever get the chance to do this, but if I Ever do, it'll be something that You've taught me, so Thank You So Very Much! We think you're absolutely WONDERFUL!! Keep doing YOU honey! You are Original and Oh So Very Talented! Thank you for giving yourself to us.. you've definitely earned your wings! ;)
Have a Wonder Full Journey and In Joy every second of it! Many Blessings to you and yours, G'ma & Niyah :) Hugs!
Absolutely Stunning work..Very pristine!! I just found your channel a few weeks ago and am totally transfixed...Thanks for taking your valuable time to teach jewelry making..Your step by step procedure is easy for the novice to learn..Again Thank you!!
You are an extremely talented artist and teacher! I can't wait to try this for myself! Thank you for taking the time to create these videos!
+Terrie Mooneyham Thank you so much for your lovely words. I really appreciate it :-)
You are a GREAT instructor! Thank you!
May I make a suggestion. When you are beginning to make the prongs, do not start from the side. Start by measuring the wire to get it's center and align that against the center point on your plan. Then begin making the prongs beginning with one on either side of the center point. (Work from the center, out.) The result will be equal lengths of wire on either side for use in making the bale. Also, wait until the prongs are set in the first wire and then cut the second wire to fit the length of the first.
You are a great teacher! Thank you so much for making this video. I am definitely going to try this on my loose stones.
Gracias preciosa eres muy talentosa y buena para explicar
Brilliant explanation of prong placement. I love this video
+Lorraine Sanderson Thank you very much. I'm glad you like it :-)
You are so talented. Your work looks really nice. Thank you so much for teaching and sharing.
To Ripley Ramboette. Thank you very much. I have a ring tutorial coming up shortly actually. I do have a website, but currently don't sell tutorials only, but it is something I am working on getting together :-)
Please offer a donation to CSL Designs for this fabulous video so we can keep high quality video flowing our way!

+Daniela Ruffinelli Thank you very much :-)
JUST PERFECT....THANKS FOR TEACHING US....
Wow that was amazing. Beautifully made. Thank you for sharing I have learnt a lot of good tips and looking forward to having a try. Well done😀
Love your work...Really a pleasure to watch and I've learned sooooo much!
Marvelous, thank you so much. I did enjoy and found it extremely useful, I will try it for sure.
i love u ur the best teacher on youtube so neat and sweet!# thank u for teaching us love
Really nice, elegant piece. Hard to tell its wire. Think ill try this with a faceted stone, thank you.
Woa absolutely gorgeous! Have a coworker that wants me wrap a carved labradorite, and she doesn’t want it “very fancy” lol so it doesn’t distract from the lotus carving… I bet this will be perfect for it!! Love that you demo placement of prongs without math… SOO appreciated cause i bloody suck at math! Also grateful you show step by step fairly slow, and talk it out as well.. this is a fairly old video but it’s gunna be SO helpful and I really adore the final look! Thank you!!
Thank you! Made my first piece and am proud of how it came out! You are an incredible teacher and very talented.
You start cutting 2 peices of wire but then have a third one to wrap the 2 how long is the third one and what gauge please
I have 18 Labradorite Cabochons, a few only suitable as practice pieces, but more than 12 are Jewelry Quality... i have been looking for a suitable method for turning them into Pendants... i do believe this method would work quite well in that regard.
TY for the video tutorial.
+Leonard Tubbs That sounds lovely. Labradorite is beautiful. I'm really glad it was helpful for you then :-)
Leonard Tubbs
Another lovely design, clearly explained. Could you show us how to do a prong set ring too, please?
+Geraldine Darlington Thank you. Yes, it is something I am planning on doing in the future :-)
I bet you sure were a cute little girl with your pencils and erasers and crayons! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for a wonderful awesome work, but i have one question : Is this natural silver or silver plated copper?
you make it look easy,did my first prong type stone from your tutorial,thanks,i did the setting too big for the stone so I ended up putting a different size stone in it,a lot off adjusting but I got it done ,next time it will be easier,
+Mike Lavoie Thank you very much. Yes, definitely the more times you do it, it will become easier every time ;-)
Thank you so much CSL designs for doing this tutorial! I have been looking for something like this for a very long time, and you make it look so easy! I do have a question for you...I know that filming and talking while you work makes it take a lot longer to finish a piece, but I was wondering how long, start to finish it actually takes you to make one of these? Thank you again!
+Laura Miceli You're very welcome and thank you. I'm glad it was helpful for you then. Hmmm I don't know exactly as I don't really time myself, but maybe around 45 min to an hour once getting used to doing it :-)
Estou aprendendo muito com suas dicas.
Очень нравится! Для не знающих английского - немного затянуто, но это лучше, чем смотреть на мелькание рук и ничего не понимать. Всё очень аккуратно, основательно и профессионально:)))
Галина Старцева
This is a fantastic tutorial! Thank you!!
+Lisa MacDonald Thank you very much :-)
Fabulous! Thank you so much for sharing your skills. May I ask what kind of chain nose pliers you use and what the blades are made of?
Wow that's beautiful !!!!!
You are fantastic!! Your videos are so well done and even I can follow along. Thanks :)
This is awesome thank you for sharing i love your channel!
amazing work , I love it .
FANTASTIC!!!. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and your kindness in giving us such valuable information. Your method of teaching is so easy to follow. I have several pieces that have been waiting because I wanted to set them with prongs but was not sure how to go about it. Your information is so timely, again, thank you. 🙏🏼💗🍀
I LOVE it! Very helpful! 🤗👏
Very beautiful
Hi, May I ask what temper of wires are you using in your videos please? Are they dead soft, soft, half hard, or full hard?
Thanks in advance
I'd really love to see this principle applied to a ring design as I think it lends itself to a more minimalist look. Do you have something like this?
Thank you, wonderful awesome work :)
Muchas gracias hermosos tutoriales
oh! Also, I've got quite a few stones with holes.. how would you make something beautiful with these? I thought perhaps, IF I ever get the tools and wire that is, that I would maybe be able to cover the hole or use it as part of a design? What would you do? Its hard to find anyone that wire wraps with anything other than Cabs. Ideas? Thank you! Hugs! :)
Love your work btw
I am having a hard time finding the pliers you used at the end of this (prong set) video to bend the prongs I've used them once of twice and love them. Can you tell me the brand and perhaps where to get them? I would love to purchase a pair!!
y7ou make it look easy , lol, I really love that
Great job and happy to see your cabochon really flashes its beauty - not hidden by a bunch of wires. Thanks for sharing !
Beautiful
That's beautiful :) can I ask how would you do a setting with prongs say for a gemstone you would set in a ring like say a 8mm round calibrated faceted gemstone and make a ring with that?
your videos are fabulous. they go at just the right pace for me. and so well explained. thankyou thankyou thankyou 😙
Love your video. Now I think I'll try prongs. Can you tell me what brand chain nose(needle nose) pliers you use. I love yours.
Thank you so much for your careful explanation. I have deep respect for the intuitive skill of wire wrappers! It is harder than it looks to get such a lovely finish.
Very good thank you
Yay!!!!! I can make prongs now! You're great!!!! What looks so complicated, you made easy. Not simple, you must work at it. But I'm thrilled to be doing them at all! Thanks!!!
Love it!!
This is fantastic I've never seen this technique before, I love it, it's an exciting design, very interesting and it looks lovely excellent detailed explanation wonderful tutorial, amazing, I'm going to try this. Thank you I love your videos. Real quality teaching. Laura in liverpool uk
Another beautiful design, perfectly executed and expertly taught. Do you ever do casting and soldering?
un trabajo impecable
Can the prong set be used with the other decorative wire weaves, as well or does the prong set only work with the straight weave?
Genius! I would love to see more ring tutorials. Do you have a website where you sell tutorials?
PERFECTION! You are sooo talented, Christina!
Question. I made this using your wonder instructions. Thank you again. Anyway, my prongs have a little wiggle in them from side to side. is there a way to make that more secure?
Beautiful .. Thank you for sharing .. You are a Fabulous Teacher
What do I do if the stone is not secure?
I love watching your tutorials they are so helpful. Also love your accent. My fiancee is South African and I love her accent as well. Keep up the fantastic work. Thank you for keeping it simple for some of us old folks.
Omg CSL design, you did a gorgeous prong set wire! I have a question can I be about to do the same kind of prong wire but in this stone I have is Tourmaline gemstone? Or dose it's has to be strong gemstone? Thank you my friend ,for sharing this to us.💫🙋🏻🌹💫
+Rosie V Thank you very much. I can't see why it wouldn't work fine with that stone, maybe just make sure to be a little more careful just like when you would wear it anyway :-)
I want to do this for this beautiful agate stone I have. I've been looking for a clean , simplistic way to wire wrap the agate stone. Thank you
You are an amazing wire worker, your work is so neat and professional looking. Thank you for sharing your tutorials, better than any workshop I have attended.
Wonderful work... Congratulations of the Brazil!
Nice really thanks
Hello! I bought a Larimar Cabachon from Dominican Republic and want to wire wrap it using either 10K gold or gold filled wire. I'm not sure whether to order dead soft, half hard of full hard though... any suggestions? also, about how many feet of 26 gauge wire did you use for this piece?? thank you!!!
Amazing 😎👍💯
Fantastic video, these are lovely pieces.
Just wondering how to keep them clean, and not get tarnished ?
Thank you for demonstrating your technique; I think it will work for the free-form cabs I cut & polished years ago.
Bellissimo, sei proprio brava.
Mi piacciono tutti i tuoi lavori!!
I would have taken the two wire ends coming down from the back of the bail and made them the long curls. The two ends that come from the prong base would be the short curls. Then I would weave the four together. The wires would be stabilized and the back of the pendant would be smooth and flat.
Hi. My English is not good, but I wanted to comment that your channel is excellent. Thanks for teaching your art. My name is Pedro
