Copper Sheet Earrings! Eps 361

[@tomslove52]

Love the earrings and especially love how you give your supplies their own personalities 😉

[@jariech87]

Wow ! Beautiful pieces. Thank you.

[@bextermonkey246]

Loved it! Giggled till it hurt!

[@Judithptak]

Me too!..lololol

[@MJSTAMAND]

I use $1 store scissors to cut sheet metal. A pair can last a few years. Save $$ for more beads!

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Good to know! Thanks!

[@moonhunter9993]

yeah, my daughter's children's scissors can cut through thin metal and wire well.

[@MJSTAMAND]

You're truly making a facing pair if one twists clockwise and the other twists counterclickwise. Yours looks great as is, though, because the main design elements reflect light so nicely. Love the rich copper look. Lots of terrific copper jewelry was made in the 50s. Also many metal combinations In an art breakaway from traditional jewelry and the leap into modern art.

[@pamtennis7724]

Awesome designs! Do u seal the copper?

[@gabrielleschmidt1435]

Copper is my favorite color and these are Great!😻

[@lisasalgado6713]

I did this with aluminium they came out very pretty colors with alcohol inks cool

[@leighannwindsor7092]

Love this idea!!! I’m looking for new way to make earrings.!!! What supply’s do you use

[@bpsmith211]

Where do you purchase your copper? And what guage are you using?

[@clarewillison9379]

Nice to see you adhering to the hippopotamus oath of jewellery makers: do not kill people with your creations 👏🏼😂👏🏼

[@wendettalangston6257]

Thank for making learning fun! Great Stuff!

[@patriciaweiss91]

So inspiring, Matt! Thank you so much ( -:

[@ingridsaab5413]

Hi Matt, that was a wonderful tutorial. BTW, where did you get that nice copper?

[@bextermonkey246]

Amazon

[@ingridsaab5413]

What gauge and size of sheets? Thanks

[@MattsCrazyArt]

24 gauge - 2 inches by 4 inches maybe

[@OldHag73]

Using sandpaper for metal might be the best option??? About the same Price as regular sandpaper and those are mainly used with water so also helps it to not get too hot

[@reneicejohnson3058]

Those came out nice Matt. Where can you get the sheet metal from?

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Amazon. Look for 20 gauge copper sheets

[@Colombian1959]

I love them!

[@juanitapearson5282]

Love it! Could you maybe draw a pattern on the backing then cut it out?

[@gailresources8120]

And just like that you have beautiful work!

[@Judithptak]

Love them!

[@kimlyons8550]

The film is to keep the metal from scratching. What gauge are you using? FyI, they make the shears in curve also.

[@ritamontalvo6195]

Sweetie, you can use a jeweler's saw...so easy. Great ideas.❤

[@mariiasea]

looks lush!

[@DiNoWireArt]

That is cool. I am Sheet Metal worker by trade. I mainly use Galvanized Steel and Stainless Steel. I have done a little with copper sheets when I was in trade school.

[@MattsCrazyArt]

So you learned the Europunch early on

[@lizking5827]

Beautiful !,!

[@mebaneholly]

Ok those are awesome!

[@smithk6977]

Love them all 👍👏

[@crimsonvixen9218]

I found scalloped edge scissors work well for thin sheet :D had a lot of fun playing around with this :D

[@lisaredford6462]

Matt do you do anything to the edges so they are not sharp??

[@bextermonkey246]

use a file

[@charoborquezflores1903]

Que bonitos, yo los hago con latas de cerveza, porque no tengo laminas, ahora cuando los haga van a cantar figaro🎵😆

[@jcrefasi1]

I have a weakness for copper. Really love it when it is paired with turquoise

[@rosam2253]

[@ritamontalvo6195]

What gauge is that copper sheet?

[@donnabrownbowles3525]

Most excellent!!!❤❤❤

[@ImaWildMango]

Now I'm making a list for this. My husband is not going to be happy. I have some places to hide things. Metal and beads....oh, the possibilities.

[@deborahkelly7102]

Did I miss this? What gauge or mil is it please ^_^

[@bextermonkey246]

24 gauge from Amazon

[@deborahfreshour5098]

You are funny! I’m playing with my 36 ga sheet. Very thin. I was wrapping my tiny strip around my metal stamp. You were struggling with your pliers. I lover copper

[@doracarrington9219]

How did you seal the copper at the end?

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Clear acrylic spray

[@danielledejordy8359]

[@sryan8973]

What is the gauge of the copper sheets?

[@MattsCrazyArt]

I have no idea

[@bextermonkey246]

24 gauge available on Amazon

[@fernbrisot325]

A tip for smoothing the edges of a EUROPUNCH hole is to "punch" through from the other side. This usually flattens any rough edges to save extra filing.

[@lisasalgado6713]

Your awesome

[@susanabdelsalam6303]

I think you could fold it around a pen to make the spiral.

[@TheAutisticFamilyof3]

[@MattsCrazyArt]

It helps make burritos more spicy
