Katie, can you please convert the wire sizes to AWG? I don't know which gauge to use. Love your work and want to recreate it. Thanks!
Hi Katie haven't seen you for a while, hope you are well. I've been wanting to do this bracelet for ages but just couldn't get it right. Now I can, thank you for sharing x

Nice work
Lovely video. Could you tell me if this is soft copper or hard copper
Lovely, Thank You.
Awesome Mam. Can you pls tell me which guage wire you have used for making this bracelet. Will be extremely useful and helpful. Thankyou. God bless. Tkcare.
Hi, the wire used is 1.5 mm I believe this is 15 in US terms. Thanks for watching 😁
@@katieparkerjewellery7277 I just wanted to know whether you have used 18 guage wire or 16 guage wire. Pls let me know.
Hi, in the U.K. we work in millimetres, I’ve looked at conversations charts for you and the closest would be 15. But 16 would work with this design too.
@@katieparkerjewellery7277 18 gauge or 16 gauge one of them ... I wish I knew too . But never heard of 1.5 but I’ll keep a look out .
Great video, thanks for sharing
thank you so much to your toturial i try to make it for my income
Супер .
I love the raw copper used in this project, I have never worked with it, so does it tarnish?
Hi, thank you 😊 yes it does tarnish but you can use a wax sealant to help prevent it happening, such as Renaissance Wax.
What I love about this bracelet is the gap between the two wires is narrow. I don't like the bracelets that have giant gap, it looks like cheap manufactured junk jewelry. thank you
What would be the thickest wire you could use before it becomes to hard to work with just pliers?
And when looking up silver wire to purchase it always says “dead soft” “hard” “soft”
Which is best for a person who never takes her jewellery off? I work with horses and dogs so my rings and some times my bangles are all always bent and dinged 😂😂😂
Hi, the thickest wire I work with is 2.5mm I mange this with my usually pliers and my heavier flush cutters my fine ones would break. Half hard is the wire I would go for and once work hardened it should be ok for normal use. I wouldn’t wear for working with horses though, most metals would bend and scratch when doing heavy work.
@@katieparkerjewellery7277 thanks so much, what is work hardened? Do you have a video explaining it?
@@kasie680 work hardening is the hammering of the metal. It’s in the video, the more work hardening you do on a piece the harder it will get but don’t hammer the metal flat because it would then become more brittle. Use a raw hide hammer if possible.
@@katieparkerjewellery7277 thanks so much! 😉
You talk too much. Please just teach without talking.
😂😂😂 "teach without talking" what a fucking riot, that's hilarious. Great video!
