    I thoroughly enjoy your teaching style. I've watched countless wire wrapping videos. Though they were beautifully done, it didn't all make sense to me. You say ”Give it hug” or ” make it an H” and that is universally understood. You also have a great sense of humor, and with the way you move so fluidly as you work it feels a bit like you're the ”bob ross” of wire wrapping.. In that there only ”happy accidents” lol Thank you so much for sharing! I'm really glad I found your channel today 😊

      @@rachaeladeline lol no, don't do that. I'm sorry if I offended you. I was just trying to help. I know what I am saying. I went through it too. It takes more than just being 'a Christian' to break the generational curse. That is want depression and all these things are, generational curses and they can be broken. They sometimes skip a generation or two but if they are not broken then future generation can and will suffer the same. All this is scriptural, not false.
      I see why I really need to start my RUclips channel so that I can teach what so many ppl are totally lost on. Anyway, listen to Yahweh Speaks on RUclips, you can learn a lot.

    I homeschooled our 7 kids for 19 years and had accumulated umpteen projects I'd started but was never able to finish because I had no time. Crochet, needlepoint, embroidery, tiling, jewelry making, sewing, and about 10 other hobbies I loved doing. Once they graduated, went to college, the military, or began their own families, I got back to the hobbies I had looked forward to finishing for so long.
    I also discovered RUclips and all the things I've been able to learn even more about, and Matt's 'channel' is one of my greatest discoveries. This last winter, I had multiple corrective surgeries on my feet so I spent loads of hours sitting and expanding my jewelry supplies and knowledge.
    When others have been feeling sorry for me not able to get around for months, I've been having a blast learning and doing things with stones, wire, chains, beads, molds, resin, and lots of other mediums that I've applied to my jewelry making. I've even incorporated my canary's feathers in pendants I've made for grandchildren!
    So Matt, thanks so much for being such a large part of teaching me so much more than I ever knew before about stones and how to use them. I'm loving all of it and becoming fairly proficient watching your videos. I also love giving gifts of things I've made and get wonderful compliments with my personal gifts. I just may sell some jewelry to earn a few dollars extra, too. Its very rewarding with all of it! So, Thanks!

    I love how you quickly and painlessly decide how you’re going to wrap a stone. I use to think I had to meticulously plan out my designs. Now I see I’ve been overthinking things. I just have to go with the flow and see the beauty of it as I go. I’m luckily I live in northern Canada. It’s a geologists wet dream up here with so many gorgeous stones around. I don’t have to go to a store to find them, just collect them on my walks with my dogs. Thank you for inspiring me.

    Dude I just binge watched a bunch of your videos and had to subscribe. You are such a breath of fresh air. Down to earth, real and unpolished (in a good way). I get the feeling you don't do tons of video editing which makes them feel so genuine, like you're hanging out with a friend on your day off. I love so much of what I learned watching them. Mostly:
    1. You don't need to invest a whole lot of $ to give this stuff a try.
    2. Don't overthink it too much when you're working on a stone.
    3. Do something a 100 times before you judge yourself.
    I've always been intimidated by wire wrapping but now I'm really stoked to play around with some stones I've had laying around. Thanks man!
