Ивонн!! вы замечательняая!! вы Мастер! и ваши рабты супер!!!!!
You have the easiest to follow tutorials I've ever seen on RUclips. Plus, your dragon eyes are phenomenal!
I got it!! Finally I got it!!! oh my mercy. Thank you thank you thank you. I am so excited.
Ok. I'm gathering my guts. I bought nail polish to try doing an eye. You are inspiring! Thank you to your bubbly self!
hehe, you can do it!!! and I would love to see what you make!!
AmethystWoman maybe try galaxy stones. I think they are easier as they can look like anything and gives you chances to experiment with different elements
heh so true very bubbly. refreshing :)
Worst you can do is have to take the nail polish remover and clean off the cab totally and try again (holds up hand) Would love to know how yours turned out. I'm here now to see how she does the bezels... I've knit enough byzantine chain already to stretch to the moon and back a few time...
I love your energy in this video! 😊 so positive!
I've been trying to do that closure for a long time and I finally got it watching your tutorial, thank you.
I've only watched two of your instructional videos so far but they are some of the most well explained techniques I've seen on RUclips. Great job and thank you. One more thing, epoxy is a sensitizer when wet and you can develop an allergy to it over years so never touch wet epoxy.
Thank you for that advice! I am a mess with chemicals and do NOT have good lab protocol down (oops)
I am really glad you like my videos, thank you for watching! :)
Yvonne Williams You are so talented. FYI I highly recommend: Venom nitrile gloves. They are very strong and since they are black, you can see when clear or light colored epoxies transfer to the gloves. Easy to put on & take off and they have no powder in them. I have not noticed any funky smell from them either, especially compared to the odor of epoxy. All the best.

Oh my Goddess, how do I adore you, my lady! Where have you been all my artistic life!!!🤗
Thank you for sharing your light and talents!
lol, hey, Regina! I'm glad we've bumped into each other; better late than never! :p
I have no idea how or why one of your videos showed up in my recommended, but I am so glad it did. I'm a single mom and have no time to craft, but I find these fascinating. I watch them while I am doing other things, and one day when I am less busy I will get back into crafting and maybe try some.
Right on! I am glad you found me, Andrea :)
not only do I love your video's I just love your giggle makes me smile. you are very talented thank you for sharing your gift and your giggle
lol, Thank you Neecie! :-)
Thank you again for sharing this lesson.
Discovered you by mistake, but watched anyway. I have to say you are very learned in your craft of chainmail. I enjoyed watching. I have friends that will love everything you do, so I'll pass your info along.
wow, thanks! :-D
girl you are a very bubbly person, only there for i want to make what you are making. you teach so well in the you're vids it's nice to learn from you!!!
I have searched and searched on how to connect this particular weave. Never could get it till now. Thank you so much!!! Your tutorials make it easy to follow along and I have learned so much from you. Keep 'em coming, Von!
Wow! Using the larger chainmail rings made this much easier to understand. Thanks.
Love how you teach the half persian 3- in-1 ! Probably the best instructions I have seen for this weave. Will share on my blog so others can come learn!
Great tutorial , very well Explained,Thank you. As always its a joy learning from you,Von. Thank you for sharing your technique.
First of al, I just love your personality :) Your work is amazing, helpful, and you"re a great teacher! Thanks so very much!
I watched a few tutorials on how to do this and by far, yours was the easiest to follow!!!! Thank you😃
You are a delight. Thank you making such clear and wonderful tutorials.
Lol, thank you Linda! I am so glad you are enjoying my videos :)
Hi Yvonne, I have had trouble getting the correct order of rings. I was trying with all one color. But I have watched this video so many times and decided to try and follow along with 2 colors. Wow finally got the order of the rings to sort of following. I know I put in one ring about 4 from the end in the top or bottom (?) and it goes weird at that point when I put it down on the bench. But I was happy to use all the ring sets to the end. I will practice some more to get the hang of it. Thank you for your wonderful instructions and videos. Lots of love and hugs from 'The Great Southern Land' down under... Australia.
You are so fun to watch. You are a great artist and you present the steps very concisely.
hehe, thank you, Eding!
Fantastic tutorial! Loved all of the angles and detailed instructions... wonderful job! Thank you!
green5sing Heya! thanks for watching :)
BEAUTIFUL! Once again, YOU have AMAZED me with your passion, talent, creativity, as well as your personalized & thorough teaching.. I truly do APPRECIATE YOU & all the time & effort you have put into making/producing these videos to teach me/everyone so much! Although a good education is priceless, I would like to contribute to your program & ongoing creativity. I wish I could do a lot more, however I'm in the process of trying to get my disability & right now it's only by the Grace of God I have been able to continue feed my 3 teenagers. When I'm able, I promise to do MORE to help. THANK YOU! For EVERYTHING! Take Care, 💛! AmyLee
Hi Yvonne. You inspire me so much. Thank you so much for your tutorials. I completed my first chain mail bezel today. And that is saying something! Took three days of hard work and frustration but finally the breakthrough today. If I could now figure out how to send a photo I would show you my beautiful dragon eye with chain bezel.
Thank you for having the easiest to follow tutorial on this!! I think I can finally get this weave down now 😃!!
I learn so much from you Von, thanks!❤
argh!! thanks so much for this tutorial... I've been doing chainmaille for years and can figure out most weaves but I always give up on this one. I FINALLY got it, thanks to you!! *hugs* :D :D
Spider Queen I'm so glad this was helpful to you!
I am amazed how detailed you are, thank you for teaching me. I am so great full to have found you. I have done so many things I have seen on you tube and I must say., you are the first that honestly tells me/us the Truth
This video is as relevant today in 2022, as ever! My new motto: never let go!
I found your videos less than a month ago and you have inspired me to want to start learning how to chainmaille for myself and my husband. Your stuff is beautiful and I have a few pieces that I picked up from the Bristol Ren Faire in Wisconsin. Thank you for the tutorials :)
I'm so glad to be helpful to yall! Bristol Ren Faire is one of my favorites!! Absolute perfect woodland setting!
Your are such a good teacher ! And we see very clearly. But it is really hard to make. Specially the end.
I'll have to practice a lot.
Good form for two-tube epoxy packs is to cut the plastic holding the plungers together. You want an equal amount of epoxy and hardener and thus style of container gives a much more inconsistent measuring experience. Love the videos!
this is one more great thing you make, i love it and gives me an idea to i do really like your videos you make thanks again for showing light as you are a bright soul
hehe, thank you for your kindness Nigel!
Wow! This is amazing! Your a fabulous teacher. Tfs
thanks Paula, and thank you for watching!!
Soon-ish will be my fiancees birthday.
I got some aluminum wire
I got a few of those fluorescent stones
...
I think, I just found a great present!
Thank you very much :D
You just earned yourself one more subscriber ;)
This is so amazing, thank you so much for the tutorial! I am trying so hard to get the ending figured out but its being a brat...I WILL get it though. I thought I would never get the diamond knot figured out and now its really easy. I have been looking around and your video is still the best I can find to see the ending so I think its just practice I need. I have learned so much from you already. You do beautiful work.
WOW ~THIS IS SO 😎!! Will be giving this ago!!
Thank you for this tutorial.I can’t wait to try this. You are so talented.
I asked my mom to get the materials thanks for the awesome ideas 💡.
that Dragon chain necklace is amazing
hehe, thanks! I am glad you like it :)
You drop everything (like I do) because the floor is the natural home of beads and supplies.
Thanks for the great tutorial!
Hextal is a great super clear expoxy it does take 24 hours to dry but you have hours to get the consistency right for your project.. you also need a gram scale to mix it.. but it’s my go to for glass..
Very good, understandable tutorials. Great speed weaving.
Wow, thank you!
Hey! Great video!! One small note, the link for the jump rings on Amazon is actually a link to some lobster clasps! Don't know if anyone had taken the time to tell you yet!
I love your work and you are cute and keep smiling and giggling.
lol, thank you Phyllis! I am glad you like what I am doing here (and I am just a giggler, I guess!) :p
Awesome instructional video - clearer than others I've seen. For epoxy, I use Bob Smith Industries (BSI) epoxy from Amazon. It seems to be clearer than most - I was looking for water clear, or something used on crystal or fine china. It comes in 5 minute, 15 minute, or 30 minute, all of which I have in case I'm doing one or 20! I don't get the applicator tubes, because I'm not good at pressing the two tubes well, but mixing is the same if you just have two blobs the same size. I don't use E6000 at all anymore. The curing time (if you read the package) is 24 hours, and it smells horrendous. If I have to wait, I'd rather get more hold than that.
Yvonne, I've been watching your videos and an amazed! You are a great artist and teacher. I'm 70 and I've never seen someone so young and talented and be a great teacher also. Where did you learn all this art work. May I ask how old you are? Thanks for your vids. Mary
wow, Mary, Thank you!! I have learned most everything that I know while on the road as a traveling artist from my own experimentation and the inspiration and input of the other artists I have had a the joy of meeting along the way! I will be 29 this year :)
HP 3-1 took me ages to get together the first few times. I wish I had seen your tutorial back when I was still figuring it out. I still do it ORAAT, though, so now it's time to try a different way. :)
Hey, Sara! I'm not familiar with ORAAT, what is that? It took me at least a week of trying every day to finally get the hang of joining it, and it shaved good years off my life lol
Yvonne Williams Haha! The struggle is real with chainmaille weaves... and ORAAT = one ring at a time. It actually took a picture tutorial written out with using the wire for the initial few rings for me to finally get the half persians. I'm gonna start working on this one and 3/4 persian and see which I like better for wrapping. :)
excellent video many thanks and hi from the UK :)
Y love your workshop,you are great!!!y am one of yours fans
Very nice video!
Thank you for sharing! I might try this!
Thank you, Michelle! Good luck to you, and happy crafting!!
I also want a workshop like you have.
I haven't used your specific epoxy, but with two-part resin you can use a small torch or just breath onto it to get the bubbles to disappear. I think it's the CO2 in your exhale that does the trick. You might want to try the breath method with your next epoxy job and see if the bubbles go away.
ooo, very neat idea, I will try that! Thanks :)
Very informative, and so easy to understand what you're doing. You're a good instructor! I subscribed, and I'll tell my crafty friends to check you out. Cheers!
hey, Pamela! thanks!! I try my best: I have a difficult time learning sometimes, so I try my best to explain it the way I could have used to hear it when I was first learning :)
This is great unless the rings you have are small enough that you get a tight weave and the chain won't reverse. I finally laid it on a finger knuckle and carefully knit across. The last link was excruciating. I knit enough to get it around a 30x40 cab and showed it to my spouse who was awed. Now I just have to pop the cab out, paint it, and glue it back in.
Good grief! Even with all your fantastic tutorial assistance, I can not for the life of me close this wretched, yet still so very beautiful weave.............ugh hahahahaha. 3 weeks and countless ruined rings later all I have is several strands of P3/1. Guess I could always use them as wall hangings lmao.
Great one, will have a go. Thank you very much.
You're welcome, Ankna! thanks for watching and happy crafting! :)
Nice work and I understood it. great video
yay!
yippee yay thanks Yvonne 😄😄
hehe, I do hope you enjoyed this one :)
Next project on my workbench 😉
And it ain't working😉 gonna take plenty of practice 😉😉
extremely helpful!
Wonderful! :)
excellent!!!!!
Thanks! :-D
I have tutorials on paper for various weaves, but it's great to see it "live." Thanks ...But... what I can't remember is how to size them, and I don't think you mentioned that.
so beautiful. I liked it.
Thank you, I am glad!
Do you have a tutorial on fractile wrapping through a chainmail bezel? I'd love to learn that one - if I can keep uo. Julia
Loved this video! I hope I can do it. Thanks.
wow that was cool. Good tutorial and can't wait to see more :)
Thank you, I loved this video
Dear Yvonne i wish you written down the inches you use so i can be able to translate it to centimeters or millimeters so i will be able to make it as well, nice work
Hello, Juliana! I wish I had as well, that would have been very helpful!
I'm new to the Yvonne faml. Love your channel.
god your good,,,unbelievable !!!
Great video, very educational! At the end, you explain that the epoxy you used can yellow over time and recommend using something else for clear cabochons. What do you use instead to mount clear or transparent pieces?
Hey, Michael! I honestly don't set a lot of clear pieces because I haven't found anything that wont yellow over the years; I usually turn to wire wrapping to secure those stones that would be affected by the yellowing.
Ty.
Love your tutorials. I followed this all the way to the end and now Im totally lost on the joining. I dont have different color ring so picking out the rights ones is difficult
Hi Yvonne, I'm really loving your videos! I'm looking for a way to encase uneven, odd shaped stones (no holes).I don't like the wire wrapping technique for what I have in mind (and what a weird mind it is LOL) so I'm looking for something to do with chainmail that doesn't look too dominating....I want the stone to still be the main visual and not any wire/chainmail. I hope that made sense! Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Im watching this late to win that lil house, wish i could have won that , its so cute ❤😍👍🏽
hehe, there is always next time Margie! :) I may try recreating it, I liked it so much :p
Beautiful Work!!! Great sharing and I love the " Y'all " :) I will have to give this a try. Where are some of the shows and events you attend? I would be very interested in checking those out.
FYI- you should know that your Sauron eye is a top google image- when you type in "Dragon eye"! Congrats- that's GREAT! congrats, again, on all your success
lol, woah! That is mind blowing!! words are ~so~ hard though!!
Hy Yvonne, it's me again. Hope to get an answer from you. I'd really love to learn more from you to assure my living here in Germany. Love from Uki in Germany 😘
would you be able to do a video on the necklace with the dragon? if possible 😊 love your videos!
Sure! :-D
I totally can not get the last part hooked together to make the continuing loop. Can you do another video of that slowed down?
Sure! I will do that for you!!
Holaaa Ivonne!!! Una consulta podrías hacer un mandala o atrapasueños con la técnica ésta que Ud enseña???
WOW!
hehe :-D
How do you know how large your circle needs to be? I am having the worst time trying to figure size? Do I need to finish it off to tell? What size are the eyes you wrapped (green and black eye)?
Hi Yvonne! I'm way late to this party, but you mentioned lining your metals (like copper that can discolor skin); my question is, how do you line the copper?
can u put a back plate behind the stone and set the stone with burnishers? or is a crazy idea?
Subscribed
Do you think it would be possible to wrap a D20 in a bezel like that and if so, would you still need to epoxy the back?
Can you use this same technique for the round Dragon eyes or is this just basically for the oval shape ones?
Hello, im just getting into chainmaille and came across your video. I know its an old one but i was hoping to find out where you get those eyes?
Yvonne, I crochet dragon scale treasure bags and am very excited about the idea of incorporating hand painted dragon eyes into them somehow! I will be buying my bright rings from you but I'm wondering where I can find the colored rings?
Hey, Kelly! I highly recommend www.theringlord.com for colored aluminum rings!
terima kasi
Terima kasi juga!!
My name is Rich I’m 72 years old. I have been trying to build this chain for two days with no luck. Do you have any diagrams that show step-by-step on how to build this chain? I’d appreciate your help. I know there’s something I’m doing wrong but what?
On that epoxy, does it suggest that you wear a mask while using it???
How do you make a Bracelet out of a camera shown
make me miss doing beading your amazing
Wow, thank you Allen!
your most welcome
Good instruction! Keeping the work in the camera field at all times would be more helpful.
Hey, Miss Yvonne, I love this tut! I have a question: Your pliers don't look dipped; do you have a coating on your rings, or are you being really gentle handed?
Hello, Brian! I used to work with dipped pliers but now I guess I have a feel for it and am gentle handed :p I recommend tool magic for if you are working with softer metals or something that is enameled or anodized. Also, none of my pliers have teeth; they are all smooth jawed, which really makes a difference!
Ah, thanks! I'm still working in the dipped pliers stage, but hopefully practice will give me your grace and dexterity. Thanks again! XD
Well done! Thank you :-)
thank you, John! :)
