Thanks!! It's just copper wire wrapped around and around and around a mandrel and then oxidized. So much fun! Maybe we will do a segment in the future!
I cannot thank you enough for all your videos. im just starting out making jewelry and i have some anxiety where to start or how to put my ideas together. your videos have relieved so much stress and inspired me. i love your ideas,how you teach,and the transcripts are so helpful. i watch you with breakfast and im so happy. i wish i could pay just to sit through a week of classes. thankyou again
This girl is the only one I have see so far that explained in a easy way, and that her knowledge and voice make it a positive experience. I love this one.
Susan, Susan, Susan, Thank you so much for this video. It has gotten my creative juices flowing again after not caring about doing anything during this lockdown! You’re the best!
Great technique! I especially like the hints of tucking the wire slightly behind the larger beads and of attaching 24 gauge to 20 gauge for small hole beads. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Susan I miss you. I no longer can view jewelry tv 😭. Long story but I have my phone! Thank YOU, for these wire ring tutorials! Been making all kinds of jewelry so been wanting to make the rings you wore on the show. ❤❤❤ again thank you and love you and the other girls too. Happy holidays!
Carmen, don't fret! You can watch JTV's Jewel School online through our website! As long as you have an internet connection and your cell phone, your golden! www.jtv.com/show/jtv-live Download JTV's app in the app store and there is a link through that as well. Thanks for watching!
I have just found your videos...I'd like to see some pendant stones wire wrapped with round wire. That's all I have on hand now. Love your ease of presentation and enthusiasm. Your directions are clear and easy to follow.
Thanks for the showing the technique for the smaller beads. I've made several rings and never thought about wrapping the smaller bead onto the 20g wire. Also I definitely need a vise for my mandrel it looks so much easier than trying to hold it.
I love the idea of using buttons to make rings! Buttons come in all sorts of amazing designs, so you can make unusual and striking rings without spending a lot on beads. (And of course you can glue buttons onto pin backs, or make them into pendants, or almost anything else.)
Thank you Susan for such an informative wire education! I really am impressed! I really have had little info or instruction on various types of wire and have just blindly “sink or swim” through my projects! I am so anxious to put my new knowledge to work! I can’t tell you how much I enjoy your programs. Bless you!
I enjoy every time I get to watch you. I always go away feeling that I could accomplish your instructions. Thank you so.much and thank you for your enthusiasm. You really are an artist!
Hi, THANK YOU for the tip for beads with a smaller hole!!! I have a whole strand of fresh water potato pearls that have small holes. They are flat on the bottom. How perfect!! NOW I can use them!!! Thank you! Jean
Because of you I have been able to make rings for me and I just made some rings for my mom thank you very much they are beautiful and I love them. I am now addicted. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I love the technique of using the 24 or 26 gauge wire, if the hole is too small. I'd like a tutorial on filling a hand made pendant shape with resin. Thanks, Carol
Omg ! It just dawned on me, how easy it is to wrap the smaller wire onto the 20 gauge lol! I’ve had some struggles with that! That’s why I like your videos.
I love this ring!! My favorite is a labradorite too. Those stones are gorgeous!! I also love the wrapped ring in this video any chance for a tutorial?? Thx Deanne
Thanks for the video, I've been trying to make rings for a couple of days now with not very nice results. Your video helped me a lot! I' going to look now to see if you make earrings too.
This was just the tutorial I needed. Thank you. I also really liked the copper wire ring you're wearing and would be lovely if you can make a video how to make that too!
All these tutorials that have suddenly started appearing in my feed are starting to make me want to make jewelry again...I was sure I was done with that hobby & sold almost all my supplies a couple years ago. If I keep watching these videos, I'm afraid I'm gonna end up at Hobby Lobby! Lol 💍💎💍💎💍💎
Hey Susan really good tutorial, love your channel. Would you show us how to do the simply wrapped ring that you are wearing without a stone or anything, that’d be awesome! Thank you so much!
Thank you you made it look easy. I will try it when I get home. I haven’t watched your show for a while now. Was wondering what happened to Sherry is she no longer there?
Wow Susan.. those are so lovely and easy to make.. I have some semi precious stones with teeny tiny holes and your Tuesday ring model is a blessing.. will definately try that technique..
I have the same ring mandrel and it's so heavy I have a hard time holding it while wrapping the wire. I see you use some sort of vise to hold it horizontally. Fabulous solution! Hint on the vise? I love this simple design. Thank you!
@@chazrowe1111 It seems to have some kind of different holder than a standard vice. This one seems to hold the mandrel in a horizontal position more securely.
It's really tough to do because the gem with the hole is the anchor for the wire, but we should ask Susan to see if she has any ideas and can maybe do a tutorial. Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi Susan, You explain that these rings typically shrink by 1 size during assembly. I have 3 questions if I may ask, please: 1) Is the shrinkage on account of the number of times the ends of the wire are wrapped around the shank during the finishing stages with 20G wire? 2) Is it due to the ring mandrel's conical shape which requires the maker to size up by one number and secretly hope the concept of average band diameters above and below the center stone make it a near-accurate fit? 3) Considering the 1 size shrinkage with 20G wire, how much upsize should be considered for 18G and 22G wire? Thank you for the smart and creative videos! Extra credit test question (j/k): How much upsize allowance would be needed if the end of the wire was wrapped around the entire grouping of shank wires?
Brilliant video on the rings never thought at put small hole beads on the thinner wire then attach to 20 gauge what a lovely bracelet are they coral tube beads . would it be possible for you to do a video on how you made the bracelet
So glad you like! Yes, they are coral beads. That's what we call a cha-cha bracelet. You can use this technique to create one of your own! ruclips.net/video/oC3T22SFDnk/видео.html?mcid=XSOjsyt
I have 2 mandrels. One is heavy and looks a lot like yours,but it is very hard to read. The other is a lightweight made of hard plastic or metal and it seems to be more accurate in size. I tend to use it more.
I'm interested in making a mushroom shaped pendant. I love mushrooms, they are so very good for you, not to mention there us a certain charm about them. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
Very cool Susan! I love your videos. Please keep them coming. I learn so much from your videos and of course I watch you on Jewel School on Sundays and Mondays.
Those rings are beautiful and pretty! Will be making some for sure thank you so much for teaching us, verything was explain very well thank you for that also! Great video enjoy the video. Liz x
Susan, this was just the tutorial I needed! Thank you. I have a question though. What temper wire are you using? I was told that if the temper is not given to assume it is dead soft, but in this case I want to make sure. Thank you!
You are awesome! You make that look so simple. I think I'm going to give it a try though. I know you used a vise to hold the mandrel, but how did you get it to stay so straight when you were pushing on the wire?
Thanks!! It's just copper wire wrapped around and around and around a mandrel! And then oxidized. So much fun! Maybe we will do a segment in the future!

Your videos are filmed so well and so easy to follow. Also very relaxing and inspiring. Thanks for the content!
That is a neat trick for the small hole bead...
Wonderful video Susan!
Awesome ideas for extra loose stones

Excellent camera work excellent instruction Thank you

Hey Nancy, great idea! We will keep this in mind for future tutorials. Thanks for watching!
What a great video. Your instructions are really clear. Thanks.
Your necklace is fabulous!!! I'll make one similar.
Awesome video! You give such clear concise instructions. Thank you.
Thank you you made it look easy. I will try it when I get home. I haven’t watched your show for a while now. Was wondering what happened to Sherry is she no longer there?
I could do this all day!
I made 2 so far but my first the wire went a little over the stone looks like bird nest wrap but I love it. I love my other to. TY so much.
Wow Susan.. those are so lovely and easy to make.. I have some semi precious stones with teeny tiny holes and your Tuesday ring model is a blessing.. will definately try that technique..

I would love to know the type of vise as well. I have this mandrel as well and trying to hold it while wrapping is a pain.
@@KrystalHighbaugh89 I agree would love to know too!!
@@virginiagaviati2643 I think it's just a standard bench vice that has clamp fitting to fit anywhere
@@chazrowe1111 It seems to have some kind of different holder than a standard vice. This one seems to hold the mandrel in a horizontal position more securely.
Now I know the rest of the story. You made it so simple...gotta try this. These rings are beautiful. How do wrap rings without holes?tyfs🤗😎🌻
It's really tough to do because the gem with the hole is the anchor for the wire, but we should ask Susan to see if she has any ideas and can maybe do a tutorial. Thanks for the suggestion!
I like this lady. She is good at her videos
Great gave very good ideas and its good to go over again.

Hello there! You can use either but half hard will be more substantial!
@@JewelSchool Thank you, Susan!
Thank you for showing me ow to make a custom ring!
You are awesome! You make that look so simple. I think I'm going to give it a try though. I know you used a vise to hold the mandrel, but how did you get it to stay so straight when you were pushing on the wire?
This was a strong vise! Susan uses one that screws in to the end of her ring mandrel. It's much sturdier!
I have learned soooooooo much from you !!
Ty so much !
Susan; I would like to see the instructions for the Pearl on leather checker necklaces please❗️Thank you, Carole

Can you link your ring mandrel? What’s holding it in place? I need something like that.
seriously i need it
The thing holding it is called a third hand. You can get them at Michaels I think. They have a good mandrel there too!
@@JP-ry8ug I could not find anything called a third hand at Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, or Walmart. Is there another name for it perhaps? Thanks!
@@netteh4438 I'm sorry. That's not the technical name for it. I think it's called a vice. I may be wrong though
