I've been making wrapped loops for years, and they've turned out pretty well, but I almost always run out of room. Your tip about moving the pliers just a little beyond the initial bend is golden. Thanks so much!
I am excited about this opportunity to learn subtle things for making jewelry. I've been saving up beads and tools for years and never satisfied with my attempts. Now I can't wait to try your silver solder techniques and so much you have to teach. Thanks.
Susan, you are a Pro! Thanks for the tips on wire wrapping. I have not made wraps, but I have used the looper. I have always admired people who wrap loops, and I will practice and do this. Much appreciated.
I just started making my own jewelry! Like only made two pairs of earrings so far. I am so happy I found this channel, I’m so excited to learn more about making my own jewelry :) THANK YOU.
You always give us hints to change knots and etc. to make them look so finished and successful. You always come up with something that makes what we do more professional. I thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you! I'm new to jewelry making, and I have an old necklace that belonged to my mom that needs to be fixed, and I wanted to use this method. I might even pick up some more beads that match nicely to make something new and me.
Hi new subscriber, just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU. I have made a few elastic bracelets but wanted to try the kind that you have shown today, I have tried books but find it difficult to follow some of the instructions but you explain so well and make it so easy to follow your directions. Looking forward to other video's. I have saved this one so as I can go back again and not miss any of your new ones.
Hi. I love your teaching. So clear and informative. One question though. I need to know how to incorporate my clasp into my necklace or bracelet? Do I start out adding the first half first? What type will I need also. Let me know. Anxious in Georgia. Thank you.
Hello I luv your videos do u have any problems with the wire snagging your hair or clothes from the ends I make jewelry for customers & just wanted to know the best way to tuck the wires so they won't get in the way ...ty so much in advance ❣
This is always a huge problem, yes! Where you can, especially when making loops (like in the line ring tutorial for instance), you can flush cut the edge a little and roll that wire in a little more to help get it flush. As far as wire wrapping, it's trial and error. Try getting some tweezer nose pliers. The tips are a bit smaller and they really let you get into tight places to tuck in that wire so it doesn't snag. Good Luck! The Line Ring: ruclips.net/video/o-GgHGRJys8/видео.html
Thank you show much in sharing this video. Also, I like your necklace that you have on too. Do you have a video for that one??? Please let me know.😊 💙💚💛💜
Check out this video to learn how to create beaded chain -- ruclips.net/video/uPZFgyxNAug/видео.html&lc=UgziQmHaeBz8O6c9yDh4AaABAg -- after making the chain, you just attach to a circle finding and add a tassel with a jump ring.

Have fun!
I enjoy the jewelry 101 tutorials very much. I do, however, have a complaint. When you are not speaking, very loud music is played and as I am using headphones I am nearly deafened by it. Can you do something to fix this?
love your tutorials ! can you please do some video's using semi precious stone chips such as died tigers eye pink quart, jet adventurine amethyst the fake turquoise ( its sold as turquoise but its dyed howlyte I know I missed spelled it . I have tons of stone ships but the only thing ive made is earrings but I'd love to make a really cool ring with them. I have ideas for bracelets with them but would love tips and idea thank you.please ask SUSAN THOMAS or Alicia DO IT .I feel both would do an amazing job showing some ideas and hacks .thank you in advance
Hi! Firstly thank you so much for these videos! Also, do you ship the jewellery making materials on the given link to India as well? I was trying to check that but I couldn't figure it out.
Thanks! Would the 1-step looper i just watched you use and 18g wire work for this the same way? Or would the weight be too much for the 18g open loop? :)
Hey Melissa! Although Susan doesn't mention it here, you can use any clasp you want to finish this bracelet. Here are a few links to lobster and even magnetic jewelry clasps. You would just attach it the end of your bracelet loops with a jump ring. Good luck!

I am not sure Jewel School has the snap hooks you specifically need, but here is a link to a variety of hooks and clasps that we do offer. www.jtv.com/search/?Ntt=clasps&type=products&N=4243964577&Ntk=All?mcid=XSOjsyt Also, a quick internet search for "snap hooks" might get you to a site that has specifically what you're looking for.
Hi, I am new to your channel. On the beaded chain does it also have 3 times around? I have been trying this type of beading for a while and can not seem to get it to look the same. I practice and practice. Anyway I am liking yours. Thank you for teaching this.
I like how you are a prefectionist. I am, too😊 I enjoy your videos. I craft just for fun and give away. I suggest beginners take photos of their creations.
You can try a different flush cutter -- one that makes really clean edges -- and also be sure to pinch them down so they don't touch the skin. This is a great one! www.jtv.com/product/xuron-tapered-head-micro-shear-tm-flush-cutter/PLIER120?mcid=XSOjsyt
Thanks for watching! We are constantly striving to get as many detailed shots for everyone as possible since we never know the skill levels of those watching. We're glad your watching and like our projects!
Hi Jennifer! Susan "marks" the end of her round nose plier with a permanent marker so she can keep the size of the rings the same throughout the project. As long and you coil your wire to that "mark, " every loop will be the same size. Hope this helps!
20g wire will probably be a bit on the malleable side. You need something stiffer to really hold the shape of the links. You can definitely do it -- it just won't be as sturdy!
Hi Tommy! Thanks for the comment! Just be sure to leave yourself enough wire to make the wrap at the top. We will try to be more clear in the future. Happy jewelry crafting!
She's explaining thoroughly. It's good she talks through it a lot because of you want to do it while she is teaching you don't have to look at the screen, you can look at your work.

Finally! I understood how 2 make the loops. The other vidios ive seen didnt show the wire & tool close enough & i kept getting confused. THANK U !
I just started making my own jewelry! Like only made two pairs of earrings so far. I am so happy I found this channel, I’m so excited to learn more about making my own jewelry :) THANK YOU.
I make Prayer Beads (Rosaries & Other Types), I love the finish between the beads, it more finished looking! Thank you for the tip!

Made my first bracelet last night doing the beaded chain using the one step looper. I think it came out pretty good.
Thank you! I'm new to jewelry making, and I have an old necklace that belonged to my mom that needs to be fixed, and I wanted to use this method. I might even pick up some more beads that match nicely to make something new and me.
Great jewel class, and tips! Thanks so much for sharing, Susan, it's very appreciated! Have a lovely evening! Greetings from Minnesota 🌟

Perfectly wrapped.

No we don't, but what a great suggestion!

Thanks! As always, a great tutorial. I like the beading tray in this video. Where can I get one?
Hi! Firstly thank you so much for these videos! Also, do you ship the jewellery making materials on the given link to India as well? I was trying to check that but I couldn't figure it out.
No unfortunately we don't right now. We're sorry!

can you upload a video that shows the best bracelet beads ok👌
Great idea! We will consider this for a future episode!

@@suzanneott5371 thanks, didn't think of taking pictures, I will start doing that.😆
Susan, what wire is best to use that will not tarnish?
Hi Vivian! The best wire is tarnish-resistant craft wire such as Parawire or Artistic wire.
How do you keep the wire from being sharp when you clip it off after wrapping? Mine are always sharp.
You can try a different flush cutter -- one that makes really clean edges -- and also be sure to pinch them down so they don't touch the skin. This is a great one! www.jtv.com/product/xuron-tapered-head-micro-shear-tm-flush-cutter/PLIER120?mcid=XSOjsyt
What do you do with all the extra wire chopped off & wasted ?????
Great question! If you are using sterling wire, save it and recycle it. Plated wire pieces are generally tossed unless they are long enough to reuse!
Could you please share your favorite place to get beads?

What do you mean "work on your mark"?
Hi Jennifer! Susan "marks" the end of her round nose plier with a permanent marker so she can keep the size of the rings the same throughout the project. As long and you coil your wire to that "mark, " every loop will be the same size. Hope this helps!
GYATT
wow, thanks 🙏 I don’t need to take a beading class.
Would using 20g wire be ok for this? I always seem to get stuck with JUST 20g wire!😂
20g wire will probably be a bit on the malleable side. You need something stiffer to really hold the shape of the links. You can definitely do it -- it just won't be as sturdy!
Really trying but it seems hard
👍👏
THX THAT'S REALLY NEAT LARGE HOLE BEADS & CAPS
Does susan have a email address I want to ask her about a bracelet .
I make bracelets but I want to make rings and necklace
It’s really unclear at the start, you said grasp 1.5 inch of wire and when u wrapped the coils round you had more wire than 1.5
Hi Tommy! Thanks for the comment! Just be sure to leave yourself enough wire to make the wrap at the top. We will try to be more clear in the future. Happy jewelry crafting!
Woodglut is nice for that.
It doesn't look easy
The lady is talking so much
She's explaining thoroughly. It's good she talks through it a lot because of you want to do it while she is teaching you don't have to look at the screen, you can look at your work.
Yes she does and I am so glad she explains it so well. Much better than leaving you hanging or leaving out important info.
