3 pieces of 20 gauge square wire, 11 inches long(you may need longer if your stone is larger than mine)
22 gauge half-round wire(no need to measure and pre cut, just keep it on the spool and use as needed)
One cabochon(mine is sunstone, teardrop shape, 1 inch tall)
One tiny cabochon(mine is about 3-4mm)
All my wire is dead-soft bare copper

I made this with 20ga square sterling silver with a 3/4" black star diopside and a 4mm fluorite bead. The bead allowed me to secure it with 26ga wire prior to wrapping it with the 20ga. I did end up with 1.5-3" leftover on each strand of the 20ga wire. It's always so hard to know and it would be worse not to have enough. Oxana, this is yet another beautiful design! Thank you so much for sharing your gifts.
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed this design!
WOW.....this looks like something even I could manage to make. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
As usual, another clever design!! Proves there is no stone too small to wrap! Thanks Oxana!!!
I just wanted to let you know that i am just starting out with wire wrapping myself and your videos have been elemental in guiding me along. Seriously I love watching your videos and learning about different techniques! Hope this finds you well. Sending good vibes your way ✌
Another impressive example of a talented artist. It is amazing how you do each project in mid-air. Thanks again for your time and efforts to share with everyone your remarkable inventiveness.
You do the best tutorials and do the most beautiful wraps.
Gorgeous! I actually have some tiny sandstone cabs and this is a perfect idea to add to a cab! Thanks for the tutorial! ❤️❤️
Thank you for your tutorials! I have learned so much from watching them.
Love this, Thank you for teaching this.
You are very welcome!
You are amazing !!!!! So talented ,thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!!!
Tried this you are right not easy holding on to that little one but I got it ........Turned out great ....Thanks for you wonderful tutorial!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Mothers Day too!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful! I have perfect little cabs just for this! Thanks for the tutorial!!
YOU ARE GREAT 💖 thank you so much for this amazing tutorial 🌸 I've just done mine and I'm proud of myself 😂😋 thanks again 💞💞
That’s gorgeous! I’m still figuring out how to do an easy one without messing up my wire too much! 🤣
What a stunning stone that is.
I just love your videos. I've been just learning and you're videos are so helpful. Thanks for your generousity ☺
Wow! Wow! Wow! I love this! Great tutorial! Cheers!
lovely as with everything you do..........Thank you.....hugssssss
Great Great video!!!! Love it! And I'm so glad you named the stones you're using!! Could you do that for every video?! I'd love to hear the names of different stones you're using! 😊😊
I love ❤️ wire work and I am amazed at the designs that crafters like you come up with. I am especially interested in the wire weaving. I see so much beauty in it that it takes my breath away. I know that we all learn from one another. We're sort of the same community no matter where we live. I love ❤️ that about us. My question is in your design. Do you plan your design by making a drawing first, or do you design by the seat of your pants. Design as you go? I like for myself to do both. Have a picture of what I want to create and do the fundamental part, and with the rest I'll change the picture as I see something that looks more beautiful. Do you design like that? Sorry 😐 this is so long, but I could hardly get my point across if i condensed it . Thank you so much your new wirenworking buddy.
Thank you :)
I design as I go, I like to just start wrapping and see where it takes me.
This is great! You make it look so easy!
This is beautiful and elegant. I have several cabs with holes in top and would love to do this but I don't know how to put bail in hole without losing the look. Do you have any tutorials with holes in top of cabs? I really need a good one fo a look like this. Thanks so much for posting.
Thank you so much for posting this. I have been wanting to try my hand at the buried cab for months but I really needed someone to show me how. Thank you so much!! Would you put up a lot more tutorials like this where the tiny cab(s) are buried in different places and with different weaves around the main cab? I know I would love to find out how to do these. Also, I have been looking for a wire wrappers magazine so I can learn more, more, more. Do you know of any magazine subscriptions I could get?
I will try to think of other ways to add the little cabs, sorry I don;t know about magazines, but I know there are some books out there.
I have used what books I could find but none have been nearly as useful and pretty as your tutorials. And I have seen some old issues of a Wire Wrappers magazine that look fantastic but are no longer being published. I would love to get them mailed to me. Thank you so much for all you do. I love your videos. I wonder where you get your beautiful moonstone cabs?
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Thank you for your tutorial!!!so useful for me!!!
I love your stuff. I'm new.
Just beautiful!!
Beautiful job! Bravo.
LOVE IT OXANA. THANK YOU
This is gorgeous!!!
Awesome tutorial! Thank you!
You must have the most flexible thumbs I've ever seen
Much love to everyone
LIVE LOVE LOVED IT!!! 🥰💕💖💯😍
I've made it, somehow mine turned out different but I really love this doble stone pendant. Oxana, is it possible to twist round wire?
Thank you so much 🙏🏻🌠
Unfortunately the round wire doesn't twist, it is the straight edges on the square wire that show the pattern when twisted. The thing that could be done with round wire is using 2 thin pieces and twisting them together, you'd get a twisted/braided kind of look
Just found your channel and WOW, I love your video's! *subscribed* I've already learned a lot, hoping to learn much more from ya! Absolutely *GORGEOUS* wire work! Thanks for sharing this great video and keep posting, you're great!! Hugz, Tree
Absolutely gorgeous . . I love watching your shows . . You are so amazing. I have a question . . I had a stroke 8 years ago and just started making wire wrapped necklaces again, and I have someone that has rocks and asked how much he would charge me to wire wrap his rocks for him. I have no idea...can you give me a clue? 😎 😎 😎
Ir depends on the cost of your materials(wire) and how long it will take you. Just figure out your wire cost, as well as how much you want to charge per hour for your labor.
Excellent thank you
Sei bravissima! Assolutamente stupendo❤
Love watching your videos!! May I pick your brain on how to get more rigid lines when wiring my cabochons? I'm trying to form a square or rectangle like "accent" (for lack of a better word) incorporated into the frame (base wires) of my wrapped cabochon, and then use weaving wire to anchor the wires together. (I tried to paste a pic to show you, but it didn't post.). Thank you in advance!
I have a video on where I do a similar frame style but on a rectangle cab, maybe that would help to see, I use pliers to bend sharp angles into the wires
Awesome 👍😍 does it have to be square and half square wires?
It is much more difficult to do with round wire
Oxana, I wonder if you could do a tutorial on wrapping an incredibly tiny stone like that alone. Would you do that?
Emmy Llewellyn I will have to think on that, it is such a tiny stone, I am not sure how to go about wrapping it alone. Maybe same technique, but without the larger sunstone underneath.
Such a beautiful pendant! May I ask where you buy your stones?
can you show how to wire wrap an ammonite into a pendant? thank you...
Amazing! Can a round bead be used. If not where can the dome shaped beads be purchased?
kellie mccann it is not a bead, it is a cabochon, no holes in it. You can find on etsy
Amazing project! I am wondering though, can the little stone pop out at the top if the wires wrapping around it get hit or bent? How secure is the stone?
It is quite secure because they would have to get bent forward, usually when you bang it on something the force would be going backwards. I think as long as the stone is really tiny like this it stays very secure, but once you start going bigger that is another story.
Does anyone know if you can do this with all round wire? Cause that is all I have
You can but it will be more difficult as the round wire doesn't grip the stone as much, and for the thin wire I'd use 28 gauge round in that case and instead of wrapping it around I'd do a weaving pattern so that it doesn't unravel.
Omg! I wasn’t expecting you to reply! Thank you so much! Could you do a video of round wire weaving techniques if you haven’t already? I need some vids for just round wire lol! Thank you again your a goddess!🖤
Hello! your works are splendid!
can you tell me the brand and on which website do you find this type of thread?
thank you!
I buy the wire from a website called Rio Grande
I really like your instructions and your style of wrapping. However, the sound quality makes me think twice before I watch your tutorials. I suspect the tile wall is the reason for the slight echo. If so, some heavy textiles might help. They don't even have to be in the picture frame, as long as they cover some walls close to the microphone.
Thanks, I will see what I can do. I am actually filming in a bathroom since I have no other space to film, so that's why there"s the echo. I tend to have very little free time to dedicate to filming, so whenever I get a spare minute I take advantage of it, not sure if it will be logistically possible for me to set up textiles, etc, especially when my kids would tear them all down shortly after, lol, but I will brainstorm on what I could do. There might be a way to turn on subtitles, so you can watch without sound, I think youtube might have the ability to translate what I say into subtitles, but I am not sure.
Can I use a tiny bead instead of a cabochon?
yes you can
OxanaCrafts thank you. I have just the one. I love your videos. They encouraged me to try wire wrapping and I love it. Just to watch you at work is a pleasure.
HI, where do you buy the square and half round wire ?
Rio Grande
What about silver wire? Any recommendations? Copper causes skin reactions on my chest 😩
You can use strerling silver, I do sometimes, I buy it online from Rio Grande
OxanaCrafts thank you!!! If I am wrapping 8-10 stones I have collected (they’re all 1inch Stones) how much wire should I order approximately? 🙂
