Просмотров 11021 час назад
If you would like to create my Twisted Wire Bangle, just cut 4 to 6 arm length wires (the more wires you use, the thicker the bangle). You will need a hand drill, table vice, tape, jewellery pliers and cylindrical mandrel and Whammer hammer!

CREATING WIRE BEADS
Просмотров 20114 дней назад
Did you know that you can create your own original beads out of wire alone? In this tutorial, I show you several designs: COILED BEADS, POM POM BEADS (using a Coiling Gizmo tool), RIBBON, BARREL, SCRIBBLE, CAGED and WIGGLE BEADS ... amongst others! You can use 0.8mm (20-gauge) or thinner gauges of all types and colours and design very original pieces of jewellery with these techniques. COILED B...
TEA LIGHT CANDLE HOLDER
Просмотров 13021 день назад
I have been making varied designs for Tea Light Candle Holders for a number of years, but this 'flower' version is my most popular design, especially at my Christmas sales. I used 1mm aluminium wire for the framework and decorated it with 0.4mm gauge twisted vine with crystal beads.

BOW BROOCH
Просмотров 6021 день назад
I had a personal request for this Bow Brooch design. It can also be created as a necklace, a keyring, or even put on the front of a handmade greeting card. I used 0.8mm for the structural frame and 0.4mm to weave the seed beads on.

SPIDERS (3 variations)
Просмотров 13728 дней назад
A lovely follower called Fama, requested a spider tutorial and because I have designed three different versions over the years, I thought I would include all three in this tutorial. I start with with the simplest and quickest to make: the BLOB spider, then the 2-BEAD (or not to bead, that is the question?) and finally the BRAMBLEBUM! These are definitely not scary spiders, so enjoy making them!
XMAS TREE CENTREPIECE
Просмотров 13428 дней назад
I had a special request from Jane Thomas for a beaded Xmas tree! So here is my wire version. You can decorate it with beads, crystals, dangles, tinsel, glued on sequins or flat back crystals! Anything goes when it comes to Christmas! I suggest using 1mm gauge wire of any type for the structural frame and 0.4mm for wiring on any decorative pieces.
BIRD BROOCH
Просмотров 556Месяц назад
Here's a fun Birdie Brooch, which can be put on the front of a greeting card to make a gift and card 'all in one'. My cat Leo, loved getting involved too! I used 0.8mm (20-gauge) for the framework, 0.4mm gauge for weaving (and colouring in) with seed beads, plus a ready made brooch finding for the back. I do hope this inspires you to create your own versions.
SEA GLASS RING
Просмотров 328Месяц назад
Requested by Cheryl, this ring is a 'work in progress'. The sea glass pieces used as centrepieces have to be small and flat to work with this technique and depending on each sea glass piece, I found it to be a bit of a 'hit and miss' success! I used 0.8mm (20-gauge) for the ring frame and 0.5mm for the binding (0.4mm and 0.6mm will also work). But do have a go, as it might work better for you! ...
SEA GLASS JEWELLERY
Просмотров 124Месяц назад
If you've picked up some sea glass and want to know how to turn into a piece of wearable jewellery without having to drill it, here's plenty of inspiration using wire. For wire wrapping small pieces, I use 0.5mm/0.6mm wires and for the bigger chunks, I use 0.8mm gauge. These techniques also work on for broken pottery, flat pebbles and semi-precious stones.
Tassel Earrings
Просмотров 75Месяц назад
This simple little project was inspired by a friend's new outfit. She couldn't find the right colour beads to match, but I was able to find the right colour scheme in my bag of textile pom-poms, which I had bought for another project. I purchased my pom-poms from: www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BRV8NR2G?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I also used 1mm aluminium wire to make the cage, but for a m...
Zulu-style Beaded Pendant
Просмотров 131Месяц назад
With my early childhood spent in Africa, I have always loved the stunning tribal beadwork designs from that continent! So, I have used that inspiration to create this circular beaded pendant, which can be varied in many ways to suit your personal taste or bead selection. I have used 1mm aluminium wire for the main framework and 0.4mm gauge for weaving. However, any wire will do for the frame, a...
Beautiful. Ill try this tomorrow. Have a blessed day!❤
Thank you 🙏 Enjoy making it 😍
Beautiful design just love it thank you.
Thanks so much 🙏😍
Is this aluminum wire or sterling? It's a beautiful piece
That's aluminum wire, I bought some it's very weak.
I used aluminium, but you can Sterling Silver if you want to.😍
what alternative I can do instead of spiral in the middle of the holder please....the spiral doesnt stick with my e6000 gluue...please help
If the spiral doesn’t stick but still lies as a flat base for candle to stick on, that’s still OK 👍
I meant to say ‘for the candle to SIT on’ not stick on 😄
Absolutely brilliant and beautiful beads, such a lovely video to follow. Thank you so much for sharing ❤
Thanks so much for your lovely feedback 🙏😍
Your creativity is amazing! Thank you for sharing!!

What cm candle diameter did you use please
The ones I used were 37mm wide by 12mm high. But just make the holder to fit whatever size you have.
@@LindaJonesWireJewellery thank you 🙂
Can I use artistic wire instead of aluminium wire please
Yes, of course 👍
Also, is E-6000 the glue you recommend?
@@JaneThomas58 Yes. I find that to be the best for this sort of project 🤗
You are a spiraling queen! These are beautiful and clever. Ty!
These are all so beautiful, you are so talented and you guessed exactly what I'm doing, I'm making key chains and I couldn't think what to do. Thank you for these great ideas.
I'm so glad that you're creatively inspired 🙏💝

It doesn't matter what size bugle beads you use. I just happened to have some 6mm ones and some of 10mm. There are never any fixed rules 😂 As long as the legs look decorative.
@@LindaJonesWireJewellery thank you 🙂
Thankyou so much for sharing this video Linda .I'm going to try make for October

I also have a Dancing Skeleton Tutorial: ruclips.net/video/tT87hrGPhlo/видео.htmlsi=veiwtB76X-n6yXga and if you check out my old blog posts, you'll get some more ideas: www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/7995304298445331597/7502246407498700184 That's all I can do for the moment 🙏
@@LindaJonesWireJewellery thank you Linda ☺️I love your tutorial
@@fatimabttt Thank you 🙏☺
❤This is amazing!!! thank you so much for this, Linda. Means so much! Love your designs. Now I need that Whammer. Is it distributed in the United States? I’m in northern Wisconsin.
Glad you like the tutorial 🙏 There are 2 versions of the Whammer, one just for wire (black handle) with 3 heads and another (blue) which is the Deluxe version with 5 heads (for metal stamps and texturing metal sheet). You can purchase these from amazon.com or direct from the BeadSmith in the U.S. www.beadsmith.com/HAM500 www.beadsmith.com/HAM501 You will also need a flat steel bench block to hammer on: www.beadsmith.com/BB24 You'll find everything in the States 😍
Thank you. I will get the deluxe because i need a new wire texturizing tool.
👏 👏 👏
Thanks 👍
What is name of silver thing that holds the threads
Hi Linda ❤ what size mandrel did you use for scarf please...is it 25 mm?
It's really depends on the thickness of your scarf. But yes, I wrapped it around a 24mm mandrel. And don't forget, that whatever diameter you wrap it around, it will end up a tiny bit bigger, as the wire coil springs open slightly. 🥰
@@LindaJonesWireJewellery thanks
Omg! Love all the awesome content! Your dragonfly design is one of the most popular sun catchers i make and sell. Thank you. I have a request for a Christmas tree with beads. I think you have a video on that.
Thanks, Jane 🙏 I will try and find time to make a video tutorial for the beaded Xmas tree. I have done a few versions over the years. Thank you for your request and I'll be back once it's ready for you. 🥰
@@LindaJonesWireJewellery thank you!
I love this little bird, so cute and colorful. Thanks for sharing your fun unique art.❤
It’s a fun little wire doodle 🐦🫶
Your rings are absolutely lovely!❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your very lovely feedback! 🙏❤
Thank you Linda, my favorite wrap type is organic. I love this and I'm going to try it. I will store this video in my favorites, you made my day😊
That's great, Cheryl! Just for you! And I'm glad you like it and will give it a try 😂❤
Nice where did you get the sea glass
I've collected it over the years from beaches. And more recently, I went with a friend to Minster on Sea, Isle of Sheppey, and picked up a few more bits. If you're not able to get to a beach, you can buy tumbled glass pieces, or sea glass online from Etsy. 🥰
@@LindaJonesWireJewellery thank you
I love this design. Thank you.
Thanks for your lovely feedback 🙏🤗
Everything you do is perfection!!
Everything you do is perfection!!
@@JaneThomas58 I can't agree with you that! 😂 You should see all my failures 🤣 However, I very much appreciate your kind words 🙏❤️
Very beautiful Linda, I always look forward to your videos. Will you please show how you did your ring? Thank you
Ok 👍 I will do that for you, Cheryl. 🤩
