You are probably the only person I know that uses the word "Thrice"! I had a horse named Trigon (3 white socks) and a cat Troika (3 people working in an administrative manner)!! Craft on!!
hehe, right on!!! I don't know where I picked it up, but it is a fun word to say
@@backtoearthcreations 😁
Beautiful Von😍 I first began my wire journey 81/2 years ago. You have been a great teacher to me and many others. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. 😊 p.s. Beautiful dragonfly ❤
Thank you so much, Kathy!! What's some wisdom you'd impart to new wire wrappers?
@backtoearthcreations I'd say " enjoy the journey, be patient with yourself and it's wearable art and as long as it's never sharp or hurts,there is no wrong way😜
That pendant is so beautiful. You constantly amaze me with your ever evolving talent. Over the years I have learnt so much from you and I'm forever grateful for your you tube tutorials. Keep on doing what you do.xxxxx
Thank you so much for your kindness and for sticking with us!
That is SO pretty
I can’t wait to see what else you do with it!
It’s 2 am cause that’s when I can watch your videos
This was a real marathon! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh goodness, Val! This one is definitely a feat of endurance!
You are not only patient but extremely talented as well. At some point, I will have to sit and try it along with you. I’m not wire knowledgeable, so I will have to check some of your basic videos before attempting this one… but it is fabulous! Thank you!
You never fail to amaze me at how much we love the same projects!! You reached into my heart on this one!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Half way point……bet you are glad the bead hole isn’t too small 😂
Lovin this!!
I am -so- glad the bead hole wasn't too small lol!
This is amazing, really inspiring ❤
Wow! Thank you!
I noticed how tight you grip your wire ( your finger turned white at the beginning around 32 mark) im always worried im gripping wrong. The dragon fly is amazing, and your motivation speach for us to keep going was truly amazing. Hugs
I have a bad habit of death gripping my work, but sometimes it comes in handy!
Very cute
Blue one is pretty. Looks like fall.
Oh I love that!!
Love it!
I am so glad!
what kind of tablet are you using for the designs , or is it just an app available for other devices
❤❤❤❤❤
❤️☺️❤️
Beautiful 💝🔥💝
Thank you!!🤗
What program or app did you use to draw out the different layers of the dragon fly? That looks interesting.
This is beautiful and amazing.
I use Procreate for apple
Ok thank you so much, maybe Android and Microsoft will have the same thing.@@backtoearthcreations
Do you still have this kit available
Not currently, but we do have beads for sale on our website!
Today’s video is sponsored by the number 5!!!!
Lol!
What program are you using to draw?
I bought the wrong kind of wire from Michaels by mistake……it was half hard and not co-operating! I made a mess trying to make a 4 strand weave, started sniping with the plan of burning it in the yard!
It suddenly occurred to me that it looked like a funky bug!
It even bounced up when pushed down!! My brother who was visiting ❤❤❤Ed it!
It rode home with him on the dash board of his car!
So even the worst thing had a silver lining!!
I'm so glad it worked out!!
