#48. Resin and Wire Wrapping - You Have To Try This! A Tutorial by Daniel Cooper

Hi all,
I accidently missed the first 90 seconds of video when it came to stitching, it was just a quick "we are back" and intro, I didn't want to remove the vid and start again with all the editing I completed, also, sorry for the bad focus.
This is a video on how I used a smaller resin piece and completely changed its perspective and then wrapped it with copper wires. If you are new to my channel, check out my alcohol ink videos to see how I created the original small pieces video #21 is a good video to start.

Daniel, a couple of things that really help me when I wire wrap a pendant is when you go to wrap the half round wire over the frame wires, put a bit of magic tape either side of where you’re going to put the half round wire. This will hold the wires flat and secure them and makes it easier, so you’re not fiddling trying to hold it flat with one hand whilst winding the wire with the other, as it will free up both hands and keep the wires in place. You can clean the wires after with a bit of surgical spirit or alcohol. The other thing I do is when putting the wire frame on the pendant is again to stick the wires to the pendant until you've shaped and secured them on it, making sure you put the tape under or just above where you are moving the wire. It secures the whole thing and frees up both hands to manipulate the wire. Again a tiny bit of alcohol to remove any stickiness. I've wire wrapped a lot of pendants and these two things are what I always do and made all the difference when I started doing it. You can use both magic tape or masking tape. Not Sellotape though, as that's difficult to remove.

[@patriciajohnson3608]

Nice job Daniel. I don't know if you're still reading your old stuff but if you are that's pretty good job for not knowing how to wire with beautiful.. I've been doing why are we for about 10 years now I'm just starting to do resin. Never been in line and I've never tried selling anything. I love your videos and I'm learning a lot from you. Can I just might start a KZbin channel now. Thank you for all your beautiful videos and all your hard work.

Thanks Patricia 😁 😊

Wow! The resin pieces you made are incredible! I've been experimenting with wire wrapping for a couple of months. You make it look so easy! Thanks! ❤️

[@lynnemantle895]

What a gorgeous piece. I am so glad I stumbled across this.

[@kellyweber627]

What a beautiful piece!! Amazing how it takes the original piece to a different level 😊 Wire wrapping takes practice, but you did a fantastic job!! If you need some extra help with wire wrapping, I can suggest Matt’s Crazy Art (his older videos), CSLdesigns and Cheryl St. Pierre. They helped me 😊

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Kelly, I will look those up 😊😊

Looks really cool. Good job. 💕😊💕

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Joalla 😊

[@lolapegasus]

You've done a good job with the wire wrapping. If you draw the wires through your fingers a few times it'll warn the wire & make it more pliable. Use your needle nose pliers to make right angled turns and any lengths you cut off keep as they can be used on other projects. Keep wrapping 😊

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Carol, I have a cloth I normally use to heat the wires but forgot to use it 😂 nerves got the better of me I think 😂

[@lolapegasus]

@@daniel..cooper I think you do great, I couldn't do it, I'd be a jibbering wreck. I love to share what I know but I couldn't do a class or run a KZbin channel!! Keep up the fab work 👍🏻

[@sarakoenigmommasj.a.m.pack2701]

You're not a pro at this? You pretend to not be ;) You are awesome! Love learning from you!!!

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Sara 😊

[@maxinecambal7544]

Great idea for the resin cab. I'm impressed with your wire wrapping. It's not easy with slippery resin. I started off wire wrapping and have evolved to resin. Just remember to run the wire through your finger to straighten it and warm it. That way the wire is more maleable.😉

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Maxine, great tip 😊🥰

[@roseann1954]

Awesome Daniel. This could be a pretty mobile for your ceiling with 4 or 5 cabochons with different colors.

[@daniel..cooper]

Great idea Roseann 😊😊

[@debbiewinfield7245]

I think you did very well with the wire wrapping, I keep having a dabble but am not brilliant at it. I tend to watch Kelly Jones and imbali crafts for wrapping tutorials. Both are very clear instructions and turn out lovely. Thankyou for sharing your designs, I am learning a lot about resin.x

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Debbie, so.much to learn right! 😂

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

Ohhh, wow! I knew doming with resin seemed to magnify things a little bit, but it never occurred to me to put smaller pieces into larger settings. Those look twice as big as they really are! Thank you for doing this, Daniel! I love copper wire, but I've never used it; just stainless steel and brass wires for making Rosaries. You did such a good job on the wrapping - what a great tutorial! I've been wanting to learn wire wrapping, but gosh...another hobby to do! LOL! Guess I'll take it up, after all. 😅

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks as always 🥰. Yep, but be warned, it's addictive! 😂

That is so pretty!!! I just started wire wrapping a couple months ago and have made a couple pieces with shells and polished stones. It can be frustrating, but I love it!!! My next endeavor is to make a half wooden/half resin ring. 😳 wish me luck!

Good luck, sounds awesome! Be sure to share your work in the Discord group! 🥰

Great video, Daniel! Love the piece that you used, looks like a stormy sea! I was wondering who made the bracelet that you're wearing? I think I remember you mentioning it once but I can't find that video... And your wire wrapping skills are fine, no worries, haha!

[@daniel..cooper]

Thank you, the bracelet was a collaboration with Lucy @ FunkyPoshJewels 😊

[@dawncoleman470]

Amazing jewellery item, I've tried wire wrapping myself and actually sold a piece I'd made. I have to say it's a dark art lol. But practice helps and I have watched a few of oxana's tutorials, everything she makes is perfection. This is also a great tutorial 👍

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks Dawn, I love it, just made another video for Saturday 😊😊

[@funo6581]

That turned out beautiful! That’s a great idea to do a larger pour to magnify your pieces. I haven’t done any wire wrapping, you did a wonderful job. I do know one trick though, for those moments when you need 3 hands.😅 You can wrap an elastic band around the handles of needle nose pliers and that will hold them tight around the wire. I can’t remember where I saw that but, it seemed to work well.

[@daniel..cooper]

Thanks, I was going to get my tape out but got flustered 😂🤣
