  • Easy crystal wire wrap in under 15 minutes! A wrap I came up with just playing around and it turned out so nice I wanted to share. Forgive me for the edit and the constant error of saying "barrel" when I should be saying "bail". I even spelt that wrong! Oops! It'll be the laughing joke😆
    Anyway, Hope you enjoy!
    Tools I used are:
    * Xuron- Tweezer nose pliers 450
    * Xuron- Micro shear flush cutters
    * Beadsmith- Bail making pliers
    * Cousin- Nylon jaw craft and jewelry pliers
    * 20 gauge bare copper wire
    Music: Balloon
    Musician: @iksonofficial

    I appreciate this tutorial and I'm grateful to get this useful information.... personally as a complete rookie I found the mistake part quite difficult to follow along after that... if I was making the tutorial I would've started over and completely did away with the mistake section as it is immediately hard to follow after that... for me at least... and thats from one creator to another.....besides that it was great!! thank you

    @northernrocks543 4 роки тому +2

    Very nice I like this. Allot of the wire wrapping has so much wire around the stone you can hardly see the stone. This way you can see all of the stone and it looks really easy.

  • @raparusher

    Looks awesome! Do you think this will work with a double pointer opalite? And also, is this wrap strong enough to hold the gem without it slipping out? I have an opalite double pointer that doesn't have a hole on it but I want to make it into a pendant for a necklace :P

    • @MarlainaAtkins
      @MarlainaAtkins  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks! That sounds super beautiful. I would say you could do this wrap IF one end is slightly bigger than the other. Unfortunately, very straight crystals tend to slip out of this design. BUT... I have another tutorial that will work phenomenally for a straight crystal... Check out my wire wrapping playlist for it😊

    Hi! beginner here, I was wondering what softness you chose for this wire? Is it Dead Soft or Half Hard & would you recommend half hard for wrapping crystals like this? P.s. thank you for such a helpful video!

    • @MarlainaAtkins
      @MarlainaAtkins  3 роки тому +3

      Hi Nova! I use dead soft wire. I suppose you could use half hard but it will be a lot harder to work with. I would recommend using the dead soft tho. Hope that helps. Best wishes✨

      Thanks G! They all would work nicely. Whatever I have available is what I use. Right now I'm using round leather. I like the look of round leather and fibre with the copper wire. A small chain would look nice if you could match the copper tone tho🐾
