I love how I feel as though I’m standing right in front of you as you’re teaching. I also really enjoy how you name each item as you work with it. I’d love to see a tutorial of a wave type earrings.
I loved your instructions, darker background would be nicer to see your steps and examples! I look forward in watching some of your other jewelry making videos!
I have just recently got into jewellery-making and I love making earrings. This video is really helpful with your different techniques and you make it look really easy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it is much appreciated ❤
Happy I have found your channel- I am learning so much and feel my jewelry making will look professional thanks to your tutorials. Will the one step looper that I saw in another video not work when making the drop earrings? Or would that be an update to this video? Thanks again.
I've been making jewelry for over 20 years and I've never done the loops this way and still don't understand how to do it. When u bend it forward then bend it back the opposite way u just bent it, I don't get why u do it to begin with? So I've been trying to grasp this concept but can't find any close up videos that really shows why u have to do that.
Dearest Jewel School The wonderful instructions are not seen clearly 😒.. your instructions are wonderful.. but can't 👁️👁️ the full technique sounds so awesome.
Is there anyway to do a video on the loop against a dark background I get lost when you say “push it back against me” I can’t seem to get the loop right.
Nice! I always admire the jewels you're wearing and I think one of your bracelets is made with cultured pearls, right? What size are they, if you don't mind? Not all, aș there are several types, just some of them ...thanks!.
my earring dont dangle straight. I have a pendant shaped charm on them and it flips sideways. Its half backwards i need the pendant to hand face out because it's one sided.
Hi just subscribed I am so glad I found you your such a great teacher ty . I live in New Orleans and Madri Gras is really big here I want to know how to make fancy style tassel with some beads incorporated help Thanks Patricia 💚💜💛
Hi! Love your videos - super informative and easy to follow. I am starting out making jewelry and was wondering if you had any good suggestions for websites that sell high quality, yet affordable beads and stones?Please let me know - thanks!

As one of the largest retailers of jewelry and gemstones we offer a vast variety of beads for all your jewelry making needs. Check out this link and be sure to let us know what you made! Good luck! www.jtv.com/jewelry-making/_/N-375228644#?mcid=XSOjsyt
I watch a TON of wire jewelry tutorials and wanted to say kudos to you for this one! You successfully included all sorts of useful basic tips for making this type of earring in this short tutorial in a clear, thorough, and energetic style that's easy to follow! Thanks!! :-)
Hi, What wire size are you using? I’ve just started making jewellery and bought the one step looper you mentioned in another video. But to make the earrings how thick should the wire be and what’s the best type?
I, as well, would like to know if you can redo the tutorial but zoomed in alot closer so we may see what youre doing. Your instructions are great but im a visual learner so if you could please zoom in better on another video. Thank you for your time in advance.
My head pin wire is not bendable like your head pin wire. Bead landing 2in nickel free. I can not bend this round and round with my hand like you are doing. Any suggestions.
You may be using a thicker gauge headpin? Susan uses 24ga wire to make her headpins and most ready made head pins will be too and will easily bend and wrap.
You block the head of your tools when with your hand when you identify them. A close up of the tools would have been helpful for us newbies to learn each tools name. You are too far away from the camera for me to get a good look on what/how you are twisting the wire. A little slower and closer up recording would have been better for me.
Super helpful. Making jewerly for my girls and maybe looking at selling them. The way you've wrapped these reinforces them for the inevitable abuse my middle schoolers will undoubtedly cause. Thanks for the great, quick tutorial!
Did you say wink? Or did I miss hear? I can’t find anything like that in the last pair you made or do we call them something else in the uk. Sorry I’m new to this so still learning and loving you channel I’m learning loads thank you
Really great and helpful video, thanks! Could you tell me where you bought your tools please/ what brands you would recommend for jewlery tools? Thanks 😊
I'm a beginner DIY jewelry maker and I still can't get the loop down. My beads keep falling off and breaking (thanks to this crappy kit) so I probably won't be using super tiny beads anymore to make earrings!! :/ Not sure how long it'll take me to accomplish this first part but I hope it's not too long!

I want to start making jewelry but i was unsure if it was something I could actually do. your video is so helpful! I was wondering if you could make a specific playlist for beginner stuff. like the real basics like this?
Loved it. First time I watch your channel. I like your style! You are a good instructor. Very clear!, but camera needs to be more to a close up. It is a bit difficult to see, otherwise is excellent.
Hi Emily! We get all our chain from Jewel School and there are tons of chain options here: www.jtv.com/category/product-type/unfinished-chain/_/N-1339568114
@@JewelSchool Thank You! I'm also trying to find the diamond shaped one at the end of the video on your website, and no luck thus far, is it still in stock or am I just not looking in the right spot?
Do you have a recommendation for a sturdy head pin to use for a "ball drop" earring (head pin with a bead at the bottom with most of pin exposed)? Thanks!
Hello there! Depending on how long you want your earring to be, there are different length head pins.The common gauges for head pins range from 18ga to 26ga, but remember you need to choose the gauge that will go through the bead hole. A good example would be a freshwater pearl. It will have a small drill hole so you will likely need a 24ga to 26ga head pin. You can find them up to 4 inches in length, which is pretty long. Since your "ball" will probably be decorative, you will want flat end head pin as not to distract from your design. They do make decorative head pins if that's the way you want to go. Also, if you want something very long, you can make your own in any of the aforementioned gauges, which again, will depending on the hole size of your bead. Also it is important to remember that you will need to attach an ear wire if using anything thicker than 20ga wire. Otherwise it won't fit through an ear hole. An ear wire will also add length. One more pro tip. You can make the size of your bead hole a bit larger by using a bead reamer. 😉 Here is a link to a 3-inch head pin: www.jtv.com/product/vintaj-head-pins-in-sterling-silver-over-brass-appx-3-in-length-appx-45-pieces/VTW015B?mcid=XSOjsyt Here is a link on how to make your own head pins: ruclips.net/video/Ca2erlg2uUk/видео.html Head pins for beginners and beyond, Part 1: ruclips.net/video/awTUIGXkf5M/видео.html Head pins for beginners and beyond, Part 2: ruclips.net/video/HtvjLCsSAxQ/видео.html Here is the link to the bead reamer: www.jtv.com/product/bead-reamer-and-wire-rounder-attachments-kit-incl-bead-reamer-and-assortment-of-burs/JSKIT0559?mcid=XSOjsyt

It was hard to follow the technique of attaching the metal and the beads against a white pad. Could you consider a black or a dark-colored pad so that we can see the dimension of the wire, as well as the variations of beads and chains?

Riri Lion omg right

I'm here because I love jewelry making but also because I'm bored! 🤣
I don't really care it's not that bad In quarantine
I like how u teach but using a contrast color (either background or beads) would be very helpful... I could not see what u wr showing
Camera needs to stay zoomed in as it's difficult to see what you're doing. Great teaching video info. Thank you
Yup
Also the chart on the work area should have been dark
I agree
I watch your shows on TV. I have learned a lot. This video is very hard to see. Need to be closer and not non a white counter. Thanks.
Invaluable instructions! Thank you! Please let us see up close what is going on. I struggled to see and it took my focus off what you were saying.
You can “Zoom” in on the video while it’s playing so you can see perfectly.

Is there a "Rule of Thumb" for earring length? Like what is too long? Is 3 inches long enough?
