- Hi guys, in this video I will show you how to create a wire wrapped pendant. This technique involves no weaving and is entirely comprised of wrapped wire. Suitable for all skill levels. Hope you enjoy! Leave a comment and let me know if you have any questions! ⬇️
This was one of my earlier tutorials where I did not add US wire gauges so here is link to a conversion chart:

You guys know that there's a mixed audience watching your tutorials and learning you would think you would add in gauges as well as millimeters. I really want to give this one a try but I do not feel like going and looking up all those wires. Beautiful work though ! ❤
We do try our best. Despite that, sometimes we get it wrong. If you watch any of my later tutorials, you will find that I have added both, mm and ga.
Just Google converting mm to gauge and print it out.
Stunning work best I’ve seen on web. ❤️
@@Ginny369 Thank you so much!
Looking up wire guages seems to be a small price to pay for a beautiful gift like this..
I really do like this one. This is the second tutorial of yours that I've watched and I will definitely be watching more. I love how those swirls look
Swirls look so amazing, and the best part is that they are so easy to make! So pleased you enjoyed it! :)
Your wireworking tutorials are top-notch, I'm totally blown away. More people need to know about you!
Thank you so much!! Really pleased you like them 😊😊
Beautiful gemstones and wire work .😊💖

I am sure it will turn out awesome!
"It's a bit of a fiddly business at this time" lol love it. Gorgeous work! Thanks, from U.S. ❤
Haha, I have been told before that it isn't something people say in the US. 😆
Thank you for your tutorials amazing work

Thank you so much 😀
I am so in love with this style! Thank you SO much for sharing! This may take me awhile & a lot of wire🤭..but I will figure it out before I leave this earth! 😆😉
You will definitely get the hang of it! A bit of practice and Bob's your uncle (as they say haha)
I love your work! Thank you so much. I bought one of your kits.It arrived safe and sound from Scotland to Oregon! The stone and jewel are beautiful!! I did a practice wrap today. I’ll try it again tomorrow with your wire and stones! You are amazing! 💝
That's awesome! So pleased you got it all. The postal system is a bit crazy at the moment! Hope you enjoy making this ! Thank you for your kind words! x
Absolutely gorgeous pendant, I'm looking forward to using this technique you brilliantly talk for us thank you so much💖💖💖

Thank you for your tutorial. It's so beautiful.
Thank you!
Thank you for this great tutorial, I feel inspired to start working again!
Aw that's fab! I hope you get your mojo back!
This one came out lovely as well.. at least for a first try 😄. THANK YOU 🙏
Awesome! :)
Very cool! I use a similar technique in the sense of folding base wires in half around the bail, really works for me! Love watching you work, very neat, inspirational!
Thank you so much 😊.
This is what I love about wire wrapping. There are a million ways to do the same thing and so often I think 'oh that's really clever, I would have never thought of doing it like that'.
Thank you so much for this tutorial I did it !!! It took me 3 hours but I did it!!! I had issues with the small stone setting LOL I dropped that little stone so many times on the floor. Great tutorial.
That still happens to me ALL THE TIME lol. I have to spend a few minutes on my knees before I can vacuum lol
Imbali this is a beautiful design and you make it look so simple! Think I'll try something similar with some stones I tumbled and in a more organic shape.
Thank you for sharing 🤗
Thank you!! :)
You’re work is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much! Pleased you like it! :)
Beautiful! Thank you!
Glad you like it!
Love your work, thank you for sharing ✌️❤️
Thanks for watching! ❤️
I'm just wondering do you have any tutorials for rectangular or Square cabochons with rather sharp edges?
Thanks again for your wonderful tutorials. I sure learned a lot🤗🤗🤗
Not yet! I keep wanting to do one! My to-do list keeps getting longer haha!
They are so beautiful😍💕
Thank you! :)
Stunning, thank you!
You're welcome 😊
Wire wrap
yes it is. :)
Very pretty and I must say you have hands of steel..so strong...I can not straighten my wires with my hands ughh lol
I think I got used to after a while. You will, too! Once the metal warms up, it softens everything up so it isn't quite as hard as it looks. x
Beautiful ❤️🇩🇰
Thanks!
Beatiful 😍 🌟🌹¡!
Thank you! 😊
Wonderful tout I’m new to this and a bit lost when the gauge of wire is not mentioned…..
There is a link to a converter in the description for this one. My later tutorials all have the conversions added in.
Imbali.....I LOVE your tutorials!!! I would like to know what stone you are using? It catches the light beautifully😍
Thank you! These are aura quartz. I have just got some in stock this week and will be listing them shortly :)
@@ImbaliCrafts Will you be listing the aura quartz cabs for sale or do I have to buy the whole kit? I love them but want to use them for a different project.
@@elizabethrogers6897 I will list them separately as well as kits.
@@ImbaliCrafts GAH....I shall be waiting!🥰
Would 18 gauge work for the frame instead of 16 gauge? Beautiful tutorial!!
It could but the frame would be not very strong and bend out of shape, but yes, you could. Especially if the stone is smaller.
I love the pleasant sound of your voice.. where are you from?
Thank you so much! Pleased to know you like the sound of my voice I always think I sound like a cheese grater haha. I am from all over really. I was born in Germany, moved to France, back to Germany, Eswatini (Southern Africa) and the last few years we have lived in Scotland. (Hence my strange accent!) And you?
You DO NOT sound like a cheese grater! LOL... Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen..... 6 years auf Deutsch.. in three years of high school.. i couldn't get enough of it!... I have been reduced to only a few words lately, alas it has been 50 years since Frau Mercer's classes! Lol..
@@ariadams2955 haha I get you! It's the same for me with my French! 🤣 And thank you!
Is the square wire dead soft?
I always work with soft wire as I find hard and medium too springy.
where do you buy the stones ?
I bought these on instagram. They don't come about often unfortunately. Search for aura quartz, that should turn up some results. Also try ebay.
@@ImbaliCrafts thank you
Beginner's in whose world??
It's meant to be for people that have done some wrapping and want to learn how to set a stone in a pendant as it covers the most basic framing technique and doesn't have any complicated patterns to follow. Although I suppose you're right, the small stone setting isn't really a beginners technique. It was more like an afterthought to add that in. . I'm sorry if this upset you.
This is beautiful, and I will give it a try. Thank you for such a great tutorial.
You’re welcome 😊
