@@nicolettabaker7611 Hey Nicole, I think we are on the same page when it comes to wire. I really like to copper. Yes it’s more expensive but when you put so much work into the project you want it to last for years and keep its shape. It’s so good to hear from you!!!! 😁👋👍

I love your left over tree wire creations!! They are adorable! I tried to post a picture of what I was working on while I watched/listened to this video but that seems to not be possible so I posted it on Twisting Wire wirh Friends.

@@nicolettabaker7611 I think I posted it! Was that the one.

@@clkmickey Yes.

Good morning Donna, I’m so glad that you reached out. The idea of the root system is just to connect the wires, so that your trunk and crown of the tree doesn’t not fall apart on you while creating. This also again is just a basic root system. If you have 8 wires split them into 4’s. Then take your group of 4’s that is one set, they are next to each other. But separate, and not connected. These wires just need to be connected to each other. Once each of your groups of wires are connected. Then just twist the wires all the way to the end. Doing it this way allows you to use the long wires to wrap around a rock. I hope this helps. I will do another video on this in the near future. And try to do a better job showing you. Thank you again Donna for the questions. It really helps be better about explaining how too. Best wishes on your twisting adventure.

@@donnaarras1466 Thank you! Thank for taking the to comment your kind words.

@@rlutker1 Thank you so much!! Do you create wire Trees? I hope you find this channel inspiring and that it might benefit your adventures in twisting.

@@sandybuchart6017 Hi Sandy! Thank you for your question. For the kind of trees I create, 95% of the time I start with 120 stands at 24 inches in length. I hope that helps.

@@neelumahendra4695 🤣🤣🤣thank you! I got my work done!

@@kathrynsmith3460 Awe, thank you! I’m glad you are here. And I certainly hope that you are finding some benefits while spending time on this channel.

@@lucyanneanne5411 O my goodness, thank you! That was a crazy day, I want you all to see what you could do before I had to ship that beautiful piece out to the customer. Thank you again. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

@@lucyanneanne5411 Hey… thank you for all you kind words! I’m so glad you have been following me and that me you’re getting some benefit from these videos. UK, yup you’re neighbor from across the ocean. But close enough you can tune in anytime with comments or questions. You might be interested in a FB page called Twisting Wire with friends. This is a private group but we do video chats quite often. Maybe that works for you. Thank you again for supporting me in your kind words. Carol”)(“

You are right, Nicole! I sure I’ll be laughing harder about my own senior moments. Thank you for your support knowing it’s all about what you make of it. Love my broken branches. 🤣🤣🤣

Hi Nicole, thank you for taking the time out to comment and follow. Hope you are doing well!

Hi! 👋 I’m doing fine, so tell me is this something you would try. Is it easy to follow along? Thank you! How are you doing?

@@clkmickey dear I make wire & beads tree.

That is so beautiful. I'm not ready to tackle something so complex just. But I will get there one day with practice. Congratulations on 200 videos. I have enjoyed them all x

Thank you. 🌹

Good morning Barbara, thank you! WOW, what an awesome question. there is a whole lot in your question, but I will try to answer to the best of my ability. so my first thought would be is your 10 inch pine tree that you wish to create including the roots system if so, my suggestion would be to use at least 20 inches in length of wire. That will allow you to get to your 10 inches in length when including , your total root system to the top of the tree. Your message says that you’re using 56 pieces of wire, what gauge wire are you planning to use? For a 10 inch pine tree my suggestion would be to use at least 100 to 120 strands of wire so that you have some fullness in your Pine tree. If you are thinking about making your branches about an inch from the bottom of the roots. If your pine tree is going to be created with your lower branches, much higher above your root system, then you might be OK with the 56 strands of wire. Barbara, I hope that this might help you a little bit in making those decisions before creating this gorgeous pine tree that you are about to take on.

@@clkmickey Thank you for the response. Much appreciated.

Hi Bunny! Your welcome!! I’m glad that you found this interesting. I hope that you find my videos a benefit. Best wishes on your twisting adventure.

Thank you, Nickie! I had a nice day!

Awe thank you Rita!

Thank you Pamela! You all are my inspiration! Happy twisting!!!

So inspiring! Happy bornday Carol

@@christinapope5323 thank you so much! But it all of you that inspire me.

I’m in Pennsylvania, if you ever come east stop by.

Thank you so much!!

I use a lot of paper don’t I? It takes time but I know the tree will arrive safely. I’m so glad to hear that I might be a benefit to your confidence in creating your wire trees.

Vicki, awe, thank you so much. Hey… you got this!! You can do this too. Best wishes on your twisting journey!!

Hello! From PA, USA. thank you for being here and best wishes on your wire twisting adventure.

Hi Barbara, sorry it has taken me this long to get back to you! Thank you for your kind words. I’m so glad to hear that you got this and that you wanted to create a larger Pine Tree. I’m sure it got easier for you the second time around. Best wishes on your twisting adventure.

Hi 👋 @jkg321100 I’m not sure if this is the person I’m thinking of but her name was Jean from Bethlehem, PA. Hope you’re doing well and maybe still on your twisting adventure.

You were close. The box with the tree inside ready to go was 20.8 lbs. shipped.

It was Bev. Sometimes I wish I could keep my trees around longer to enjoy them more. But that base was perfectly done done by a woodworker and his sister. Fantastic craftsmanship …

Thank you very much! @peggyhuddleston that means so much to me. you taking the time to comment.

thank you so much! @bevfrushour7777 this means so much to me, that you took the time to comment.

thank you so much! @a0jvshugbj6777 this means a lot to me, that you took the time to comment.

Hi Bruce! Thank you for this. I will definitely keep this idea in my head. Thank you for your kind words!! Yes just go for it! You got this! Best wishes on your twisting adventure.

Hi Lynn, thank you, I don’t mind you asking at all. Yes this white 22gauge wire is coated. The temper of this wire is stiffer than I like for a 22 gauge. I have not found a softer temper white wire that I’m happy with yet. I get my wire from paramount wire.

@clkmickey thank you so much for responding. I really appreciate you giving up your time to check for messages and respond to to them.

Hey Cuz, so… Thank you so much for being the family member that reached out. My goal is to share techniques in this medium. It means a lot to have you in this space. I hope you subscribe and hit that bell button for up dates and keep me on track on what’s to come in the future!!

Thank you for let me know!

Hi Bev, thank you for putting me in the background while you create your trees.

It's my pleasure Bev. thank you for your support in inspiring me to continue what I love to do.

thank you for responding, I get that, so you can see what I'm trying to do.

Msquires473, thank you 🙏🏻 very much
