You are such a gentle inspiration. Your kind voice is so loving.

[@jojobrew4798]

Can I just come and live with you and watch you craft all day??? I’d gladly hold the camera for you... 😂😂😂 I have a lot of craft supplies to buy 😂💞🙏🏼 Love your vid’s, you rock! 👌🏼💞

[@MoniqueAO888]

That's a really sweet ring and it also has vintage vibes.

[@carlalakins]

I came for your light and laughter. I stayed for the wire twisting advice 😃

[@claudettemiskell2763]

That is so beautiful, so are you. And your giggle is contagious! I use a drill for thicker wire, and a dremel for thinner wire like you used. Wire around a nail in the wall, or a cup hook or door knob. Blessings you guys❣️🙏🏼

[@georginabuziak5110]

My late husband made me a hand tool for twisting wire (for my gem trees) clear back when we first started our business.....about 30 years ago now....I STILL have that one tool......I do however need another tool for heavier gauge wire so this might be the answer....HE did wire wrap jewelry (I do it now since his passing) and used what he called a "whirly gig"....lol.........with a vice grip attached to the table.....I might try both ways to see which is best for me and my dang crippled hands/wrists......TY Von!!!! : ) I truly enjoy watching your videos!!!

[@harmoney55]

Melody / Harmony I'm so happy to see that light in your eyes when your teaching. Great tutorial. Can't wait to see more. Thanks

[@davidhill1220]

Your so cute Such a happy pretty teacher Thank you! Patricia

[@Bebbis77]

Pretty ring! Nice idea.

[@IBKIN-ARTS]

hello thnx for the tip ... i do lots of DIY and also love vaping and so i found that a drill would do the job easy as we vapers do lots of wire coils to use em on our vaping machines and way thought to pass by and show some love ... keep glowing and be the best as you are

[@Mosaic_Crone]

Your hair is SO cute this way. Whimsical and fun 💗

[@kathy4451]

Always a pleasure to learn new things from you Yvonne! I've been watching and learning for 4 yrs now . Oh and I'm super stoked about the order I placed from your Etsy shop!.. happy birthday to me😉 Jan 23

[@bethricecurtis6841]

You've got the greatest ideas for DIY tools. Love your videos.

[@linseybachko4470]

I haven't don't much with twisted wire yet, but now I've got ideas bumping around in my head. I prefer to do things by hand, so this is a perfect way for me rather than using a drill - it will give me the control I'm looking for. Now I just have to go through my old CDs and find one willing to make the sacrifice for creativity's sake.

[@bevakathedementedraccoon]

gonna have to test this out, might be easier than the way i've been doing it. i've literally been tying the wire to my door handle, attaching the other end to a pencil, and sit spinning the pencil until it's twisted enough lol. it's oddly relaxing! thanks for sharing yvonne x

[@starsackaney4996]

Oh Miss Yvonne you're really a superb chica to learn from and I think you must be the sweetest diy crafter chica out there in this awesome IN THE FUTURE WORLD of ours......thanks again happy 2020 thus far as we enter February 2020!! Cheers from moi!!! Ive written to you before however I changed my handle from Leona S.to Star Sackaney as it fits my music persona thingy! Cheers babe!! 🍁

[@pennyhalbert1280]

So cool. What a great idea. Would never have thought of twisting wire in that manner.

[@twiningaaron]

Great way of twisting wire. I have never done it that way. I normally chuck it up in a drill, to twist wire.

[@NancyMcCurry]

Beautiful Yvonne, I'm a huge fan of your channel. I have one small suggestion for your future videos like this: First show us the tool in action and what the wire looks like when you're done twisting. As you instructed I had NO idea what you were getting at and it was hard for me to figure out what was going on, but had you shown the thing in action first it would have helped me a lot. Thanks so much for all you're doing for we Wackie crafters!

[@marytexidor1736]

You're awesome!

[@nicwill8525]

Never would have thought of that! Great advice. Thanks!

[@AZskylite]

Always fun.

[@teresaparsley8933]

love your work and learn so much watching you. Thanks

[@CrystalKStearns]

Another way of doing it is using a eye screw from a hook and eye set, a dowel rod and a power screwdriver. I've done it that way before and it came out really well.

[@hummerklein2567]

Thanks for the train 🚂 my favorite i said it the same time love it my husband worked on the trains and passed away last year so trains are very appealing to me Oh yes thanks for sharing this with me your a doll baby . God bless you always

[@hummerklein2567]

Yep just watching it again yep that’s my sweet husband blowing that for to tell me he’s sending you to me threw this video he was a jeweler with me also we belonged to the GemCutters Gild of. Baltimore Thanks again this was real nice to here because I’m so lonely without him we were together for 40 years I’m sorry got carried away with my emotions every where 🤪

[@makerofstuff]

Great hack!

[@debbieboring3422]

What a great idea. Thanks, it comes out looking so nice.

[@kerithforeman6301]

Another Great Idea Is To Put Resin On Top Of The Ring, Then A Colored Diamond Of Your Choice On Top Of The Ring. Loved Your Great Video. Wonderful..

[@cathyhall7457]

SUCH a great video... This is A BEAUTIFUL RING TOO...

[@marty01957]

Very cool, Yvonne! Thank you!

[@debbiegoble9836]

I like your cool looking house

[@lonislovelythings3736]

I use locking needle-nose pliers to hold one end and wrap the other end around the shower rod or something else up high. The pliers have enough weight that they spin nicely. But your way is kewl too. Good job!

[@cherylellison8455]

This is a great tutorial! And I have experimenting with twisting my wire and this will really be helpful. Thank you

[@dmt108]

Thank you

[@rueedward]

I like ur necklace..soo damn pretty🥰🥰

[@antsquirly7654]

Over 40 years ago when I first took up silversmithing, I bought one of those hand crank drills. Took a #8 finishing nail and bent it into a hook. Tightened the nail into the chuck and there was my wire wrapping tool. I still have that thing, although I have replaced the nail a few times. (it sometimes got lost)

[@treybeedee6177]

I love this idea !! Do you have a pattern for the necklace your wearing!?! I love it!!!

[@slogomary]

Nice work! Thank you for showing us the process....

[@darkraven1966]

Thanks Yvonne. I love it!

[@iraidalodevic3454]

Very clever idea ,thank you!!

[@rjr618]

I got my first order of parawire today. 18 g silver and 18 g gold. Looks a bit brighter than my other wire

[@livingcreatively1]

Love your work. Your very talented

[@miketownsend6108]

I make a small hook in cert in hand drill the other end in vice grip or vice works awesome

[@richardnelson64]

Grate stuff u are doing their l like it, ☮️👉♥️✌️♥️

[@shelleydwyer-murphy2281]

Cool, great tutorial, thanks! Happy 2020, Yvonne! 🌻

[@jimathey6153]

VERY good young lady, thank you. I purchased a tool 2 twist cord together 4 ship model rigging which is almost like your HAND MADE TOOL, which I use in my leather craft. Thanks again ✝️⚾🙃

[@secretsofpool]

Wooohooo first video of 2020 hopefully many more to come.

[@carlafee5060]

Love the ring so cute

[@psychedelicpython]

I like how this twisted wire can be done with different types of wire twisted together. The different colors together are nice together (as opposed to all copper or all silver, which can be nice on their own as well).

[@wendyknoxleet]

I adore you. Missed you! Haven’t been showing up in my feed

[@VondaInWonderland]

That's so cool! I will be able to twist long amounts of wire super fast. Happy 2020 ♥

[@lynng3421]

Hi! I am wondering for my wire jewelry, what type of sterling should I use? I am a vendor at local markets, will parawire silver plated be good enough to sell?

[@hummerklein2567]

It’s beautiful

[@shadesofidaho]

Yes it sure is 2020. Hard to believe 20 years have already gone by since the big scare of Y2K. Great idea. I have a huge spool of 26 GA wire and wanted to use it. Will give this a try. Thanks.

[@TheMetatronGirl]

Cool idea! How tight can you get the twist with the CD before it has issues? Would doubling the CD get a stronger twist? I bet you could make a jig out of wood or metal...yep...creative juices flowin all right!

[@michelle_mitch_p]

Amazing as always. Just love you x

[@donnaprzybilla2936]

Nice

[@roberttaylor1816]

Use a cordless drill works great

[@lynn4834]

Very helpful 😂

[@02reihan]

Thanks Yvonne

[@rachaelgurule2326]

Theres a tool that pilots use for twisting wire called a milbar wire twister. They can cost anywhere from $25.00 to $175.00. They are pretty cool and really nice and can twist any length of wire.

[@keLLyGurL2303]

Just wanted say happy new year and that you look really good...love the hair do....and your videos obviously...thx....

[@AsylumET]

Take a 3" long bolt, two washers and a nut. Put one washer on the bolt. Put the bolt through the center hole of the CD. Place the other washer on the bolt. Finger tighten the nut onto the bolt making sure that the CD is centered with the washers. Now insert the bolt into a power drill. Variable speed wire twisting :)

[@mariab.1997]

The equipment distance helps keep balance, I thought, perhaps, you were showing how to twist a single heavier gauge wire. Like a twisted 18g square stock wire. Ha! Totally takes me back to my childhood when I would spin on the swing until the chain could take no more. Then weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! This twisted wire is pretty. Plenty of color and the silver kind of makes it all pop....might be nice braided too. I'm not a fan of the nesty rose, but I do like the twisted wire as a band.

[@jo351]

How did you put the holes in the CD without breaking it? Did you drill it or poke something hot through it? It looked kinda melted.

[@GrooveYouVerse]

Instead of twist-tying the wires to the CD, use maybe clamping fishing line counter weights? So like, 1. feed the wire through the hole 2. on the other end, clamp with a fishing weight using your pliers. 3. Once you're done, you can unclamp (spread open) the fishing counter weight or just cut it. 4. You save your wire 5. Less waste 6. You're happier! 7. ??? 8. PROFIT!!

[@freemomma20]

So clever.great

[@markthornhill519]

So what is that heavy duty anchor over the door ..Really For...lol. Good video thanks

[@backtoearthcreations]

LOL! I have a yoga trapeze that I like to hang upside down in :p

[@markthornhill519]

Yoga.....Right..lol

[@mary-kittybonkers2374]

Excellent tutorial, you’re so resourceful and such a generous teacher. Oh! US train horns are ‘waay’ cooler than UK train horns😂.

[@janetcameron4652]

Thanks .

[@jaxchambers7652]

Cute cute!!

[@racheldelage5690]

Thanks! ❤️

[@maev_8927]

now here folks is the real life version of fairy mary from tinker bell 🧚‍♀️! look at her creations! aren’t they wonderful!!?!

[@davidsteinfeld9123]

That idea is great may be you will like my idea to Somewhat similar only I use a cordless drill A dowal a but and bolt a and a piece of ply wood cut in to a circle find the center of it dril a hole enough to fit the bol tighten it then drill off centered holes attach to drill spin your wire oh and attach looks end to stationary object to hold taught presto

[@jameswitte5167]

Those flush cutters should only be used with copper based wire ... Steel wire gonna put notches in the edges ... Love pocket doors ... Have you tried putting the wire holes near the center of the disk ??? ... You can still put two weight wire holes on the outer edge ...

[@esthergarza3967]

I also use a drill to twist wire

[@maxinee1267]

I have twisted wire by putting an end in the chuck of a drill, stretching it out and turning the drill on.

[@darsmith3448]

This is great! Thank you!!! Take care. Very best to you and yours! Blessings and Re Jouir -Darlene

[@rachaelgurule2326]

Oh they have it at harbor freight for $12.99. A good investment.

[@monzaseds]

Great tip! But this may be just to technical for me! LMAO

[@geansanders1233]

Maybe you could Make a Bracelet with this wire

[@zibakhan9867]

I use a drill

[@beadonitboard]

I was shown a much easier way, just use a clamp and a drill..same result but really even.

[@barbrabakuhnlehner]

That seems like an awful lot of work for a nine dollar twisty tool that you could buy on the web

[@kazuakikusakabe8469]

えっ近藤春菜！

[@albertpartridge6716]

buy a drill and get the exact same effect save messing around

[@candiceruvalcaba9618]

Geniuses! 🤯 I love your channel you continue to inspire me !!! Your hair is super adorable in this video!!! Lots of love! @lilylunas_jewels_

[@joyceeberner]

Sorry.. although I applaud your creatively i'm not a fan of the jig & process. I twist multiple Gage's of wire (both round & square) as well as multiple strands; l simply put one end in a vise & other end in any drill , dremel.. or even vise grip. It's much faster and even; the most important tip is to keep taut & on drill go slow.

[@wdpk837]

very attractive girl and helpful video

[@kristinel6352]

I use a drill
