- Hello friends,
Learn how to make these fun and easy flowers for your jewelry projects! These cute flower components are great for earrings, necklaces and bracelets, and can be made at home with the minimum of materials and tools.
This DIY wire jewelry tutorial is perfect for beginners and more advanced beginners too, as I go a slow pace and explain each part of the process. I use soft bare copper here, but you can use any wire of your choice.
You will need:
0.8mm (20g) wire of your choice
0.5mm (24g) wire of your choice
10mm mandrel
Flush cutters
Chain nose pliers
Ruler or tape measure
Ear wires/jump rings
I hope you enjoy making these pretty components, and as always, thank you for watching.

How sweet. I will attempt making these.
I pretend like you are MY PRIVATE tutor. Have I mentioned that I am 81 years and still going. We live in the country on a farm and jewelry making helps fill those lonely moments.
That’s so lovely 🥰 81 is a wonderful age and it sounds as though you keep busy. How wonderful to live on a farm too 😍
Made the earrings today. Love them. Not as perfect as yours but lovely non the less. I will keep practicing.
Thank you for sharing your talent and tips with so many.
Not only are you talented, you’re so much fun!
Oh thank you! ☺️
Another gorgeous component for jewellry
Thank you! 😊
Wow I love these, Thank you so much for showing us!!
You’re very welcome ☺️
You make things that seem so intricate easy to make with your instructions. Cute as can be.
Thank you so much for your kind words 🥰
Wow, you are spoiling us!! Thank you for teaching us all of these tutorials!!!
You’re so welcome 🥰
Such a pretty component! I love how versatile it is. Thanks Sam!!!
It’s such a pretty piece isn’t it, Jeannine? 😍
Perfect for Christmas. I've got some people in mind. ❤ Thank you.
Perfect! 😍
Very beautiful! Just a couple of questions. Can you attach a crystal somehow in the center instead of a spiral? Also, can you gently hammer the flower to make it stronger?
@@suzystripe6492 you can definitely attach a crystal. Pop it on the end of the wire, but make that wire a little longer, and then spiral the wire around the bead and pop it into place at the centre. I’d think you could gently hammer the petals at the edges to make it a little stronger, for sure. I’ve not tried it but I will and see how it goes. It should be fine with a gentle hand ☺️
I absolutely love these flowers!!! Can’t wait to make them. Thanks for thinking of us in Florida & for checking in. Fortunately, no major damage in our area. Other areas experienced much worse.
I’m so pleased you’re doing ok over there. I know some places had such devastating effects, and my heart goes out to them ♥️
I love this! Thank you!
You're so welcome! ☺️
This is just lovely. I’m kicking myself for not bringing a little wire and some tools on my trip. These are first up to make on my return in two weeks!
I hope Glory is doing well and your weather isn’t too bad.
Argh! That’s so annoying isn’t it. I’m away for a weekend soon and I’ll be taking a little something away with me 🤩 Weather here is wet and windy but we’re good and in the warmth. And thank you! Glory’s doing so well… apart from being a bit grumpy at times lol 😂
Oh my , these are lovely. I’m so behind on things I’m never gonna get caught up with everything I wanna make . 🤦🏻♀️ love all of these pieces❤
I know what you mean! I have sooo many ideas for things and not enough time to make them all 😂
Another beautiful one! Thanks Sam!!
My pleasure! 🤗
As usual Samantha, beautiful and inspiring work! Thank you for sharing your talent 🙏🏻
You are so welcome! 🤗
What a beautiful set, thank you for sharing as always!
You’re so welcome 🥰
Gorgeous Samantha. Thankyou for the tutorial.
Thank you! 😊
I love this set and you gave me some more ideas to make some other things. Thanks again
You are so welcome! 🤗
So pretty!!! I just love your tutorials. I hope you and family are doing well and little Glory too.
Thank you so much, Jeanetta 😍 We’re doing ok. Glory is a good boy and although he’s getting a bit older now, he’s living his best life ♥️ Hope you and the family are well
Thank you for your lovely tutorial I really enjoy and appreciate you very much.
Thanks so much 😊
Hey there Samantha , I love this, I do, I really do!
Ah thank you so much ☺️
Love these flowers!
Thanks so much 😊
So cute! Thanks for the shout out to Florida. I was in the middle of the hurricane. Made it out with minimal damage. Was terrifying for a bit. But I'm ok. So thank u!
Oh you’re so welcome 🤗 I’m really happy you’re safe and well and with minimal damage 🥰
Once again you’ve read my mind! I’ve been goofing around with this idea without ANY success. My logical brain knew that it would work but I don’t have the creative ability and/or experience to figure it out. It never occurred to me to use a smaller gauge wire to tie the loops together.
I am so glad it was helpful. I had similar issues until I figured out that it would work with some wire holding things together 😍
Great idea and lovely video! Thanks!
You are so welcome! 🤗
You are so clever and have so much talent!! I'm always so excited to get an alert. Every time you do a new video! Thenks so much for sharing! Im going to attempt it now!😊❤❤❤
Thank you so much! ☺️ Hope you have fun with them
It looked hard to make but it was easy. I will try it. Thanks
You are welcome 😊
Wow, these are stunning!
Thank you! 😊
Merci beaucoup . Les fleurs sont belles et votre explication très pédagogique.
Merci beaucoup pour vos mots très gentils ☺️
Very pretty and versatile. Will give it a go for a pendant, i think..just when you were saying not to pull too hard, I was just visualising myself making it,and I was pulling when I should not!!! I have very strong hands so refined work is a challenge. 😂 we shall see.Thank you for your zen demonstration😊
I have very strong hands too! Which is why I kept telling myself “don’t pull, don’t pull!” 😂
@@samanthalatimer1 I'll be doing the same...🤣
I so look forward to your videos but I dont always get mine looking like yours but love it
Glad you like them! 🥰
Your flowers are gorgeous, I love your bracelet, it’s beautiful. Have a wonderful weekend Sam , thank you x❤
Thank you, as always, Lesley. Hope you had a lovely weekend too xx
Gorgeous Samantha ! 💕
Thank you ☺️
I just went back home to Florida yesterday from Mississippi the hwys were filled with power line workers and equipment coming. Thank you Alabama for sending unnumbered vehicles. I saw the national guard. It was a long drive willed with emotion seeing the help coming as well as the devastation they will be seeing.
That’s wonderful to hear 🥰 and I’m so glad you’re home and safe
Every time I see one of your tutorials, I'm in absolute awe!! I use your tutorials specifically, my volunteer work for a group of seniors who like to learn to make jewellery. Even those with arthritis can do this. So beautiful!!!
I am so happy our State could help. Governor Ivy (maw as she is called) is truly helpful. I pray all is well for you!
Very pretty!
Thank you! 😊
What a great design Samantha, (or 'Sam' to your students here? Lol. That's maybe an American casual way of referring to someone we feel comfortable with 😊)
Can't wait to make these. You're a wonderful instructor! Always look forward to your next design!
Thank you so much ☺️ and it’s Sam to my friends, so Sam is fine with me 🥰
❤❤❤ loved this 🎉
Thank you ☺️
Bellísimo ❤
Thank you ☺️
Beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊
Lovely thanks Samantha. Wish I could keep my workspace as clear as you r videos, are you messy really?
lol this made me laugh 😆 Actually, I’m super tidy most of the time 😆
Thank you!
You're welcome! ☺️
Wow so pretty. Once again a fun piece to work on. What size was your mandrel? How are you and Glory doing? All is good here
10mm mandrel 😍 Glad to hear you’re all good. Gory is doing wonderfully well, thank you! He’s an old man now so he’s a bit grumpy sometimes. I’m doing fine, thank you ☺️
Love love ❤️
Thank you ☺️
I taped 2 different sized small wooden dowels together to make a slightly tear drop shaped coil.
Excellent tip, thank you! ☺️
Hello, I wonder if this component is suitable for silver plated anti-tarnish coated wire, such as Artistic? Or would the pliers & twisting break or damage the coating, thereby causing tarnish, or showing the copper core? Love to know, as I'd like to use the Artistic in silver instead of copper. Many thanks.
Good question. It depends on the plating to be honest. A good quality wire would hopefully stand up to the work but I do t think one of the clear coated wires would. Artistic could work if it was handled sensitively 🥰
Sam, did you see the northern lights last night??
Sadly not, but friends put some photos on Facebook of the lights over my town and they were spectacular 🥰
Thank you so very much for your concern and thoughts. We were very fortunate here in northwest Florida to not have any issues with the latest hurricane. Anyway ! I love this new design and looking forward to making a few. Have been really busy so I’m getting a late start. 🙏🫶🏼
Hope you have a great day 🥰
