    Thank you, wire wrapping feels so overwhelming, but this tutorial actually made it feel a lot more manageable. I have sea glass from my local beach and this is going to happen now, Thank you again

      Exactly! I really wanted to make some wire-wrapped jewelry but they all looked so professional and perfect - didn't know if I could do it.

    Best tutorial I've seen on how to wire wrap beach glass. It's much easier to follow & stay focused without all the rambling in the background, your on screen memos are a smart way to convey the steps as you go. Would love to see more vids from you. Thank you!

      @GayleBird  10 лет назад +5

      My pleasure! I also get distracted by audio. I guess this is a visual learner's medium!
      I have lots of downloadable PDFs too... just check out my website. :)

    Great tutorial ! I live along the Atlantic coast and in the 45 years I've lived here I never heard of Sea Glass until a few days ago. I'm going out looking for Sea Glass tomorrow. Thanks to your wonderful tutorial i'm going to try my hand at making Sea Glass jewelry. Wish me luck!

    @whippetchick 10 лет назад

    I LOVE this tut!!! So simple and fast, but the results are beautiful!! I found the background noise to be a bit distracting, but it might be because I have a migraine.
    I used this method to wrap a chunk of green malachite, and used the extra wire to curl and attached peridot Swarovski beads. It was a gift for my SIL, and she loves it!!
    Many thanks!!

    Gail, you did an incredible job! You can bend wire faster than anyone I know.Thanks so much. I will watch over many times. I have been twisting wire for 10 years and I do not move that fast! Great video! Thanks! JB

  • @thomasjones5383
    @thomasjones5383 12 лет назад

    I have to say, I've never liked wire wrapped anything, even professionally done it often looks like a 4th grade art project;but I like yours! It looks finished and put together without trying. This is really one of the best examples I've ever seen. Brava!! Great job, and to think it's only a tutorial.
    Change of tune...Tom Jones (no really)!!!
    THANKS for converting me!!!

    @letitdie00 11 лет назад

    Very simple, easy to watch video. Thank you for this tutorial, it's brilliant. Contrary to what a few comments said about the background noise, I actually found it quite soothing and liked the crackle of the movement of the wire (but that's just me!). Very helpful, thank you so much.

  • @cuteypie4964

    Thank you so much for posting this! I'm unemployed and looking for something that I can do to sell and you just saved me $35 for a course. I've bookmarked your demo so that I can pause it and go along step by step. I'm lucky to live on the shoreline where we have some beautiful shells and I'm going to try the technique with those.

  • @giddalti
    @giddalti 11 лет назад

    I haven't started making jewelry yet, but I've noticed that every designer has his or her own style -- their trademark touches. I'm waiting for my stones to arrive. I can't wait to start creating. I have ideas (from watching youtube videos) regarding what I'm going to do with the wire and stones. Yet, until I get my fingers on the materials, I can only imagine where my designs may go. Thank you for sharing!

  • @kaymad143
    @kaymad143 11 лет назад

    WOW, thank you so much for sharing this! I am a beginner, I have so much sea glass from many years of walking the beach. Now I want to make something from them. I was thinking wire wrapping. You made it look easy, I will be watching this video over and over while I try my first piece!!! Thank you again!

    @mindiellis2758 12 лет назад

    GAYLE!! I had taught myself another way,almost similar,using on long piece of wire folded in half,and twisting it at the points,but I think I like your way even better,especially with the extra wire to turn into embellishment [s] Very PROFESSIONALLY MADE VID! You inspired me to get back to work!!! Now,,I am looking for a way to wire-wrap round objects,,like tumbled stones in a less primitive way than I have been experimenting with...I'll get back here again sometime .I really enjoyed this PEACE!
