Absolutely the best Teacher EVAAAAA! THANKS SOO MUCH!!😊
Just watched your video from start to finish… I don’t think people realize just how vital a video such as yours is to a beginner. You’re setting a foundation from the ground up; good habits, a strong basis; with each and every step explained and with rationals given. This is the same model I used when teaching basic horsemanship. We should never inadvertently set students up for failure… explain, in detail, each step. Needless to say, I’m impressed with your philosophy. Kudos, my friend.
Thank you so much!!!🥰
I appreciate that comment! It's exactly what I'm looking for to learn (properly?!) and your comment encourages me! Thank you and the content creator!
Thank you so much for the detailed information. I’ve never worked with wire but I’m finding it fascinating.
This is DEFINITELY one of the best beginner tutorials I have seen! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and talent with us!!!!
You are so welcome!
I cannot tell you how much I needed this! I have been battling for a month now with craft shop bought supplies, and it turns out I didn’t have the right kind of pliers, or dead soft wire. This has helped me do much. Thank you!
So glad to help! Best of luck with your wire wrapping!
I really appreciate that you took everything slow because I am a beginner. The beginner pendant looks amazing. I cannot wait to see your other tutorials. Thank you ☺️ ❤
Thanks Oxana, my wife loves the wire wrapped creations I have been able to come up with as a result of watching this and many other of your wonderful tutorials. Also, I must say, at my age of 70 it is inspiring to see and learn from such a kindhearted creative individual such as you are, and sharing your talents so naturally and effectively. ❤❤ My wife's loving it all!!
Thank you so much! So glad my videos have helped you create some wire wrapped jewelry for your wife!
Thank you so much for explaining everything in such detail. I have acquired many stones and haven't been able to successfully wire wrap. I am going to watch and re-watch your video. I believe now that I will be able to succeed. Thank you again and God Bless
Thank you for doing this tutorial slow and talking through each and every step. I decided to learn wire wrapping to teach my granddaughter last week. I have no clue about anything but after watching this I think I did the best thing to get started the correct way. You demystified many techniques and I feel I can approach this well equipped. Many viewers are seasoned crafters so I appreciate you realizing some of us are true beginners. I look forward to more of your teaching videos!
You are very welcome! If you have never wire wrapped before I recommend starting with beads as they are easier than cabochons, it is how I myself started 9 years ago. Here is a great "first" project, and I find kids find this one easy enough to do as well: ua-cam.com/video/WVnse04nvio/v-deo.html
I have been watching a lot of your videos today all super easy to follow. Today I bought beads so I will do as you say!!! Thank you
Excellent tutorial. I'm so grateful for your patience and closeups and for explaining what could happen with the wire and how to fix it!!! Thank you so much
So glad it was helpful!
I am so grateful for your time and talent that you share. Thank you so much for your help and support.
Fabulous video. Better than if we’d paid for a whole day tuition without the travelling, hassle and costs. Thank you so much.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
All in All One of the best beginner wrap videos Hands down I appreciate the time you took explaining, this was very helpful to a ex metal worker who has some dyslexia issues that I overcame in sheet metal now that I am forced to find anything that helps me This was one of the videos I will keep at the top of my list. Thank you sincerely. Troy Satterfield
Thank you for very carefully, showing us close-ups of each thing you do, and explaining it so well. Thank you thank you thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you for providing this amazing tutorial. I want to learn this craft but have been hesitant. Since you’ve provided the tutorial on this beautiful piece to walk through every step I’m going face my anxiety and give this a try ❤
Holy Moly! I may actually be able to do this! Thank you so much for your time! This seems to be easy to follow instructions. I greatly appreciate you!
You absolutely can do it ❤🎉 I teach wire wrapping classes in my local area and I love when one of my students is amazed that they did it🎉❤ I feel like I'm learning all over again I'm that moment too ❤
I tend to gravitate towards the more simple designs for myself (since I don’t have the desire for selling and have mostly made all gift’s I give for all occasions, for decades now), and put a great emphasis on knowing the basics first and foremost. Thank you for sharing this and adding the link in your gorgeous brooch tutorial! You’re so good to us and I only hope you know how much you’re appreciated by myself and I’m sure many, many others. I do have a small quantity of square wire and will be following along with this one really soon. 💜🌻
Thank you so much! So glad you found it helpful! I will be making a video using square and round (instead of half-round) very soon.
One of the best step by step videos I’ve seen! Great job, thank you!
You're very welcome!
Excellent tutorial! Loved every minute. Beautiful!
Good instructions just as I'm starting to add more wire wrapping to my next phase of creativity.❤
Thank you so much for taking the time for each step. Absolutely beautiful 💎
You are so welcome!
Thankyou for going into such detail for people starting up
It's always good to review the basics. A beautiful pendant. Thanks for doing it! Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😊 😷⚒
Thank you so much!
I want to thank you. I was hoping to show you my result, but can't get the pic to post. You helped me so much. Thank you again
You are very welcome! You can send me pic on Instagram or Facebook, unfortunately there is no way to post picture here on UA-cam
After beading for years, I am getting into wiring. Love your video, and square wire looks so classy!! Thank you!!
Thank you!
Fantastic video Oxana! You explained everything perfectly. The piece you made is gorgeous, elegant and fun all at the same time! I love your videos. I’m so happy I found you. Thank you for sharing your time and expertise and creativity with us. Take care. 💝🥰🤗
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed the video!
I really enjoy your tutorials , they are very clear and easy to follow, and you do such beautiful work, thank you!
Thank you so much!
EXCELLENT explanation for beginners!! Great job!!

The best teaching and instruction I have seen on the internet!! You have a gift to teach and such creative designs!
Thanks so much 😊
Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us! You're an awesome instructor!💜
You are so welcome!
Never tried working with this type wire but what a fabulous tutorial, I need to try this!
Thank you! So Glad you liked it!
Wire & tool class. 😮I have so many wires that I've been working with and I appreciate your calm detailed voice of instruction.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very very much for this great tutorial! ❤❤❤
I'm new at this and you have answered so many questions. Thank you for your video 😊
You are very welcome!
Absolutely amazing tutorial, I feel confident to follow as a new beginner 🎉
Thank you!
thank you for your thorough explanation!
Excellent tutorial. Thanks.
Very nice wire wrap. Very well explained tutorial also. ❤ this piece. Simple yet elegant. 🥰
Thanks so much 😊
What a great tutorial! Thanks so much for doing this!😀
You are so welcome!
I can’t believe I did it! It’s not as nice as yours but it’s pretty dope!! I love that you addressed the tool marks at the end. My bail is not as nice because my wire was not long enough, definitely going to do it again, thank you so much!
Thank you for this tutorial. I appreciate and need your attention to detail in order to fully understand the process.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent tutorial. Thx
Just what I needed,thank you👍
You’re welcome 😊
Awesome tips…thank you so much!
Thank you. I am working with sea glass. This was very helpful
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful
Even though I’m beyond the beginning stage, thanks to your videos, I watched this whole thing to make sure three weren’t any little tips I’d missed or forgotten. Very well made video. Something I’d love to see from you, is a video on how to work with free form cabachons. Since every one is different, it’d have to be more of a tips and tricks sort of video, with the basics on how to deal with odd angles and curved edges. The frames you use are great for round, oval or teardrops, but I have a hard time adapting them to odd shaped cabs. Thanks for your excellent channel!
So glad you liked it. With odd shaped stones it is all about bending that frame around the stone. Here's a video I did with an odd shape stone: ua-cam.com/video/KMOs0D8Y9OI/v-deo.html
Thank you so much as there are very few videos for beginners. Would appreciate if you could also teacyh us some very simple weaves for beginners too.
Great work. I love it.
Thank you!
Not trying wire wrapping for the first time but incredibly useful video and have certainly saved it to my reference collection.
Somehow an even better video than your quicker wire wrap tutorials.
So glad you liked it! It is a bit harder to get this type of wire (square and half round) here in Australia, but I do love it best for cabochons.
great video, thank you
I can't wait to try this. I'm telling you I STRUGGLE with getting that stone in.. it's so FRUSTRATING!!!! Hoping I can pull it off this time. THANK YOU!!
I hope this video will help, best of luck!
Really pretty, thank you.
You are very welcome!
I've made quite a few pendants already, maybe 12. I've only used 1 cabochon and I can definitely confirm that it's way easier to use a cabochon than to use an irregularly shaped polished stone. Still I've bought some stones I really love the shapes of, I just have to figure out how to work them into a design.
That's wonderful to hear that you are enjoying it and have wrapped so many stones already!
This was super helpful
I'm so glad!
Ficou magnífico 🤗👏👏💯💯💯💯
Beautiful!
Thank you!
عملك مميز وجميل ومدهش 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Video molto interessante, è possibile usare del filo rotondo al posto di quello quadrato? Grazie
Thank you so much!!
You're welcome!
Super. Thanks!
Thank you
I am doing it for the very first time.
Thank you soooo much! ❤❤❤
You're welcome 😊
It would help if you let us know if we're bending to the front or back. Mine turned out backwards lol.
Do you find square wire easier to wrap with?
I like to thank you very much. I'm a first Tim her and your help was greatly appreciate it.
Wish I could take a picture appreciate by completing this action. You are creating a channel. And agree to youtube terms and services how do I send that
Вааау! Спасибо огромное!!!🤩
You are welcome!
Where do you get your stones from /tear drop? Thank you for your videos I will be following your wire wrapping
If you search for cabochons on Etsy you will find lots of good ones
This is what is referred to as a border, or perimeter, wrap. In fact, this is where the term ‘wire wrapping’ comes from. This is different than creating a frame and then capturing & embellishing the stone.
Oxana, do you have a general rule for deciding how much wire is needed to start a project?
I don't, I just kind of eyeball it and try to overestimate so I don't risk the wires being too short
Good video want to make something like that to sell but that would take me forever just to make one
It definitely took me many hours and many trial and error attempts to make a pendant when I first started, I think this is why I've kept most of my first pendants for myself because they were just too precious to sell with so much time and effort put into them. Nowadays, after much practice, I can make a pendant in about an hour.
I want to start with square dead soft and half dead soft I’m new and just learn I’m a very crafty person what would be the 2 best gauge To start with 20 and 24 gauge?
Yes 20 square and 24 half-round. Both dead soft
Thanks for your videos, l have two antiques shop in BANGLADESH. This videoes is realy help for me thanks a lot and where you are from?
You are very welcome, I am in Australia
❤
I have been collecting cabochons for years in hopes of starting. I am scared of the correct wire part. Thr stone I have chosen to use for my first person is about 2inches and not 1. How would this affect the wire sizes I should use?
Since that is a pretty large stone I'd use 19 gauge instead of 20, but for the thin wire you can still use same size.
@@OxanaCrafts :) thank you
I am having trouble keeping my half round bale wraps together once I shape my bail.
As soon as I bend my bale over my bale making pliers, the wraps get spaces so that each individual wire wrap is no longer laying right up against/tightly next to its neighboring wrap.
If anyone has insight as to what I am doing incorrectly or how to correct this issue, i will appreciate it any help u can give me!
Thnx, in advance, for your time and help 😊
You could try separating the two bail wires right where the wrap ends, so it is harder for it to slide down and separate, but a little separation is normal and happens to me too
@@OxanaCrafts oh, yes! What a great idea! Thnx so much!!
Is it copper wire your using?
yes, raw dead soft copper wire
@@OxanaCrafts what wire in silver don’t tarnish from Rio grande
What size/grand is the sandpaper?
It says P1200
Thank you. Your tutorials are wonderful
Love her tutorials, but this one took over 11 minutes to get started
realized she focal pointing beginners, please excuse previous comment.
Information, you do not measure from the end of that tape measure, there is a definitive line for starting, I am only pointing this out because you said it was just under an inch or 28 mm, an inch is less than 28 mm, if it were the case that you measured for a bend or something else you would be out of alignment , that would then follow on the error exaggerating the problem.
I am not being picky, you are far more knowledgeable on this subject than myself, me being a total novice who has yet to bend wire without leaving a mark, but as a retired cabinetmaker and carpenter I learned many decades ago that if you measure twice and cut once you rarely make an error.
I would invest in a 6 inch steel rule, you may find that will serve more purposes than just measuring, as a straight edge etc, used in the right way it will be of great benefit.
Kind regards.
Thank you, I have a steel ruler but it is not long enough to measure some of the wires. I think because the measuring tape I am using is just a very basic cheap one, it could also not be very accurate. But I always cut my wires to be longer than necessary, so even if any measurements are a bit off you'd still have plenty of wire for the project. And the stone doesn't need to be exact size at all, I worry that by measuring the stone and saying its dimensions I will make people think the stone needs to be exactly that size when in reality it can be quite a bit smaller or larger, but on the other hand if I don't measure it on camera I think I will get lots of questions asking me what size the stone is.
@@OxanaCrafts
I do understand what you mean and I did guess that the wire was not cut dead size, a vernier guage with digital display would be of great benefit I think, you will find many uses for it and I find it easier just moving the thumb pushing the Jaws together for an instant number display in mm, plus the internal Jaws on the back will be ideal for setting out in some situations, I was not being critical, just merely pointing out my confusion over the 28mm being just under an inch.
Πολυ εισαγωγη....βαρεθηκα
Talk a little and do the work lilltle quickly 🤕🤒😑
This video is different from my normal videos, it is meant for someone who is new to wire wrapping, so I explain every little thing in great detail.
❤
Super. Thanks!
My pleasure!
