    It's amazing what a difference it makes to put your finger over the wires to hold them flat while braiding! Excellent tip!👍

    Huge fan! I really enjoyed watching House hunters. Happy you and your family found a nice home. You have inspired me to start making jewelry. Putting in a order for supplies this week. I loved love loved the custom made wire wrap you did that looked like the goddess symbol. The one with the two moons. 🌙

      I don't attach them together, but I do use the braids in various ways, I have a few tutorials where I incorporate the braids into pendants

    Hi, Oxana. I love your tutorials as a newbie to wire wrapping. I look forward to advancing with your help. :) My question is this: I’m about to use this pattern to make a 30-inch length to attach to a lamp spider -the frame for the shade. According to your instructions here I need to cut 12.5 feet. Is this times 3 for the wire needed as per this tutorial? Or do I divide the total length of 12.5 feet into three pieces ? Thank you for however you can help me.

    • @OxanaCrafts
      @OxanaCrafts  6 місяців тому +1

      oh you mean because I said cut your wire about 5 times the perimeter of the stone? I am honestly really bad at estimating lengths and so I overestimate to be safe, I just meant that your lengths becomes much shorter after braiding as they were before the braiding, so people know to cut extra long wires. So your perimeter is 30 inches? So times 5 we'd get 150 inches, that's what we'd want the wires to be after they are prepared for braiding but before they are actually braided. So that means each of the 3 single wires is 300 inches so when you fold them in half you get the 3 double wire pieces that would be 150 each. So that's 75 feet of wire total. But my guidance of times 5 was very much overestimating what is needed because it is always better to have too much wire than not enough, so if you go with 75 feet you will likely have lots of ends left over, but copper wire is inexpensive and my personal opinion is that it is better to have too long of wires just to be safe.

      @@OxanaCrafts ​​⁠ Thank you for the clarification, Oxana. That’s A LOT of wire to handle. As a longtime crocheter I immediately wonder if there’s a way to weave in wire, but I’m sure there is not, or it would be unattractive. Maybe I need to hang it from something like macrame ponder ponder

    You really have a way with wire. Beautiful work. I have a question for you. I have a bunch of beautiful large lampwork beads. The problem I'm having is that the beads are lumpy. They are lopsided and the holes are not too pretty either. The beads are beautiful even with the problems and are definitely worth the effort. I would like to work some beautiful wire around them while covering the ugly holes and still allowing the bead to spin to see all sides. Can you help me?

    How would you turn this into a bracelet/cuff?

    • @OxanaCrafts
      @OxanaCrafts  6 років тому

      It'd have to be thicker wire so it wouldn't be floppy. Just use round nose pliers to curl wire ends so they will not poke, and then bend into cuff shape

      I actually just wrap the cab like usual, and then just use thin wire to attach the braid around the pendant.
