This is a great tutorial and helped me make a new bracelet and anklet with leather that I have been wanting to make!!!!

Golden hands! Thank you!
I love your sense of humor...great tutorials, thank you!
So, thank you for this!!!
I love this dude's hair. And his tutorial!
Same here. He's handsome
OMG...absolutely love your video.Making some cancer awareness bracelets and this will be perfect.
Great video 😂 I have watched SO MANY closure tutorials but this is by far the best one I’ve seen. Thank you for sharing your expertise! 😀
I'm just beginning to learn and I think this was a great lesson. Thank you! 👍☺
That's pretty cool, sometimes I get a little stuck. This option is better, and a stronger grip. 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 💯🎯❤️
“You’re going to need a wire cutter....a sharp one if you have one!”. Cyrus(sp?) must have looked in the small drawer where I keep my wire cutters....lol! Thank you for this very helpful tutorial! (The technique reminds me of the barrel knots I make with leather cord and other kinds of cords.)
Wonderful instructions. Truly amazing and beautiful workmanship. Thanks for a great video.
Thanks for sharing! I'm new to crafting with jewelry and couldn't decide what to use for my polymer clay pieces. Now I will purchase a spool of cords and use this technique! Thanks again!
Excellent! This is exactly what I was looking for. I use different colored wires and findings that match the leather cords. I didn't have any fold over crimps and don't want to buy any that don't match. Thanks so much!
P.S. I love the hilarious intro!
Thank you for the tutorial and also making me laugh and smile at the beginning of it, keep up the silliness, it's great!!!
Thanks for the tip! I've been wanting to make my own necklace cords with strong clasps that last longer than the pre-manufactured ones I've bought online.
That was what I needed to solve my problem of attaching my tiny baskets to leather. thanks
Thank you so much for this video! I usually use wire in my jewelry but have decided to try using cording and mixed mediums, but ending and joining puzzled me. I have been searching for a way to attach any type of cording to a metal eyepin to finish off a necklace. This is just the ticket. Thanks so much!
THANK YOU! I've been trying to figure out a way to connect my wire wrapped chakra beads to a suede cord and this worked perfectly!
Thanks for this tutorial, I’ve been making jewelry for a few years but have never worked with leather chord because the clasps seemed intimidating. I just bought a bunch and am excited to try your technique, you make it look simple and neat! Your video was very informative and to the point, and made me giggle. Thanks for sharing your expertise and good luck w your channel!
Very useful tip.
Thank you very much.
God bless you
Thank you. I am delighted, I've seen others skim over the cord ending. This is valuable.
Ha! What a charming, funny, and instructive video! Thanks!
This just so happened to come on when I was struggling with a similar issue, not this one, but to connecting and it actually gave me an idea of connecting a necklace with wire that was too short to a clasp and I ran out of soft wire on that certain color, so I had to improvise and I did, can't explain it lol
Did it pretty perfectly on my first attempt, pleased with that, shame I can't add a picture 😁
Nice!
Great, Thanks 😊
I love leather pieces
I am so happy I found this video. It is fairly easy and looks great. The video was so helpful. Thank you so much.
You have a great style for teaching, and this is a great technique that I will use over and over. Thanks!
Awesome! I've been working with leather cord and really needed to know this technique. Thanks! :)

Thank you so much! This is exctly what I was picturing myself doing, and now that I've watched your video, I have a better idea of how to do it. And yes, I will need some practice first.
I’m a beginner and I would like to learn how to do jewelry leather necklace. Thanks for sharing. You have a beautiful voice you can be a TV anchor or announcer ❤️🙏

Excell :ant tutorial. I have looked at quite a few and yours is not only easy to follow, but the very best way to make end cords for leather. I subscribed will also follow on Facebook and Pinterest. :)
Excellent and good job
Thank you sooo much! This is the best tute I have seen abt this tech.. 👍👍👍
Loved the tutorial, very helpful. I only have one wee suggestion......perhaps use a fine file (or cup bur) to give the ends of the cut off wires a more finished ending, so it won't scratch the wearer....sometimes wire can be sharp....even though it's very close to the wrapping section..... ;)

I was wondering about that myself - it could catch on fine woolen sweaters... can the ends be tucked somehow inside?
Worked great the first time!! Thanks!!

Wow, a great way of doing things. I really liked your tutorial. Thanks a lot! :-)
I wonder if I can use magnetic clasp for making wrap around Apple Watch bracelet band? I want to make one but I'd rather do this than use the button or slip knot method
trying this method! thank you so much for sharing! I subbed and clicked the bell :D
Perfect!

Hi I've just found your channel and just getting into jewellery making- what a great tutorial- can i ask what size beads would i use to put on a 3mm round cord for a bracelet? Thank you
Most important thing is obviously the hole size but i imagine it would be a minimum of 6mm, maybe even 8mm or larger.
Thank's for the video. We can use any guage wire for wrapping the cord . Right.
You can use any gauge as long as you can knot it. The larger you go, the harder it will be.
Great video,were did you get your long nose pliers.
They are chain nose pliers made by a company called Xuron. I think a few people carry them, and i even see them on amazon now.
Awesome video very informative #subbed
this is hilarious. thank you :)
if i only have a soldering iron, could i finish the ends that way - as opposed to the super glue?
The super glue is more for holding the leather in place. It isn't really for finishing the wire. Soldering would probably weaken the leather and I don't recommend it. If you do a neat knot and have sharp tools, you won't need to do much tidying up at the end.
I was looking for this thicker leather that is displayed in this video on the shop website and I did not see it. Is it available? The only ones I saw were the thin rope spools, not the thicker, flatter version.
Sorry for the late reply. The 2mm turquoise color leather in this video is available online at Gempacked.com. The larger braided one in the thumbnail is 3mm and available in store only.
Enjoy your video on clasps, however it confuses me. I'm sure it's very easy, but I need to know--did you bend the wire in half initially? Also I don't understand how it makes a knot.
I kind of bent it in half before i made the coil. I think you can see it pretty clearly at around the 2:35 mark of the video.
After you make the coil going from top to bottom, you feed the wire back from bottom to top which makes the knot. You can see where to feed the wire around the 3:10 mark.
Hello, thank you for your tutorials :) Are you from the same founder as Bella findings? I love that store and now discovered you through them on Facebook. Also are anywhere in LA so I can come and buy in person?
P.S. I love you being silly on some of your videos, it makes it cute and funny.
@108568721469564421315 Hello Oksana, Thanks for the feedback! Yeah we are the same founder as Bella Findings. This video was shot in the 607 S Hill Street store and you can come any time Monday-Friday.
Hello, thanks for the info. I have been there. You guys were on hill and 5-6th street and another location on the 7th street. You are talking about the store on the 5th &6th street, right? I love both of your stores :)
Thanks alot! Yeah, gempacked.com is the website for the 6th/Hill Store. bellafindings.com is the website for the 7th Street store. We have different and separate inventories
I like using jump rings bc if the clasp goes south, and clasps do go south, it's simple to replace them. No jump ring, big problem.
Definitely. Good idea
Comedy genius
This is awesome tutorial! Love it! Do you have a LIKE page on FB?

you are hilarious!
why not just use a crimp tube instead of rigging and gluing all that wire?
This is just another technique to have in your tool box. If you have crimps for your specific cord size and design, then yeah. That would be much easier.
where are you from ?
Los Angeles, California.
Espanol
LOL *thats right....ANY type of clasp*
Nice tutorial but it's never as easy as it sounds or looks!
(After my fifth try..........)
Keeping it neat and tightening the knot is the hardest part. Maybe try doing two or three coils at first, then work your way up.
You're hilarious
