I am very new to jewelry making and I have to say that I am so thankful to have found your videos! I appreciate you so very much. The time you take to thoroughly explain each movement, wire type, finding etc. is so crucial for someone. such as myself, that is just learning. I have watched other videos and stopped within a very few minutes because they were going so fast and assumed I already knew the basic techniques and terminology in making jewelry even though the title included the words "for beginners." You are an exceptional teacher and create the most astonishing pieces of jewelry. Hands down, you are my go to girl! Whether I am looking for inspiration, trying to figure out how to make one of my designs come together or when I just want to be educated you are the one,I know, who will provide the answers I need. I appreciate you so very much and just wanted you to know how much of a difference you make in my life. Thank you for inspiring, teaching and guiding me on my jewelry making journey. You are a rockstar! Sheila Salt Lake City, UT

Your work is just BEAUTIFUL!! I am just a baby brand new to this world (3 days ago) when I lost my job due to disability and I have got to re-invent a new world for myself because my career has suddenly shriveled up and died. Usually I never listen to doctors, lawyers, cops or anyone else who are bummers but this time I know they are right because my own body agrees with them. I just didn't see it coming!! I hate it and I can't quite see my way clear to a life as anything but being a nurse but that was over 3 days ago and now I am something else. I am very artistic and creative anyway but I never considered it as a career, it was always just for fun and I don't know to change my mindset into making my hobbies and fun into rent and groceries. I am scared! Any, I love your so much and I hope I can get even a little bit as good as you are. I just had to say that.

HA! its so cool to know you get your wire from JM too! i got a few 100 meter spools in antique bronze and blue in various gauges from JM. they ship very fast to the USA which is awesome. they have high quality copper coated wire , i think its much better then both beadalon and artistic wire.And you get way more wire for your money on JM spools. Side note: JM does have sterling silver , and bare copper wire but in smaller amounts then the 100 meter spools. Thank you for sharing!!

Christina THANK YOU. You are educating me from the ground up. Something I always have done when learning something new but nearly impossible to find on You Tube videos. And I won't buy a book without perusing it's value first. (CAN YOU SUGGEST ANY HELFUL BOOKS?) I so appreciate your showing me the many usages and capability of each gauge (I'm American) of wire. Your artwork leaves me breathless. At Age 67 I now find myself saying I must live extra long and extra healthy to achieve some of the wire working I want to do in my life time. Things like this really protects ones mind from getting alzheimers which was proven by the recent CT scan of my brain. After seeing the tutorials in your ETSY store I look forward to buying the wire and bead necklace and bracelet tutorial after playing around and getting to know these wires personally.

Thanks for this. I just discovered your channel tonight and I find your style incredibly easy to follow. Thank you so much for sharing your talent. I just want to use a bit of wire work now and again in mixed media projects. I work mostly with paper but do have a stash of beads and bits and bobs of wire. Now I can pull my wire out and figure out exactly what I have and what it's good for. I wonder if you might be interested in doing a short series on adding bits of sparkle with basic tools and minimal supplies. For those of us who don't intend on getting into wire work in a huge way, I'd still like to be able to use what I've got. I loved your "Making Your Own Chain" series for just that reason. Now I don't have to wait until my next shopping expedition, I can make a 4 or 6 inch section of chain on my own and keep crafting! It never dawned on me to make chain! In the past I've made little dangles to add to projects. I have a small stash of jump rings, head pins, loop pins [forget what they're called], I have a tool set that came with 3 basic pliers, needle nose, and I forget what the other two are called. While perusing your vids, I thought I might attempt a short woven wire piece to use as a latch flap for an altered book I'm working on. One other think I've been casually surfin' the internets for is ... I have a few bags of marbles, round ones, flat on one side ones and a few flattened ovals and rounded one inch squares, and a large freezer bag of wires. How can I use wire to wrap my marbles and attach them to say a stretched canvas or pierced through the cover of a hardcover book? Or maybe use as a knob handle on a chipboard box, or feet for a paper mache container. Any ideas?

I finally found this video. I knew you had posted it before. So I visited JM but I notice that there aren't a lot of 100m. I am not sure how many meters your is on the video. I wanted to find that size of a spool. Because I don't like a mini spool. If I were to make sure I wasn't sure if it is enough to make a ton of jewelry. I haven't done much with wire because my main concern is that they turn. (not in a good way with my gemstone) With copper wire, it isn't that big of a deal because it is to be expected. I remember other designers got their from Australia but again it has been years because I am finally back in the game. Ohhh forgot to mention, I am one of that HOH gal. But my hearing had gotten worse now. I have always enjoyed watching your work. I haven't recently, but you always inspire me to be different and don't follow the norm. Be yourself.

Hi, Christina! This video on wire is very informative and I want to take the time to thank you for doing it. I've watched several of your wire wrapping videos and I always learn a lot. The main reason I'm writing, though, is to ask about the permanency of the silver over the copper core in the brand of wire you get from JM. When I make a bracelet, I like to put it on and leave it on. Then after a month or two I invariably find the copper showing through the silver. I'm still working up to buying solid sterling silver wire, so in the meantime I'm trying to convince myself that the silver/copper blend is attractive. So...what is your experience with your wire? I haven't seen or heard anyone else talk about this problem but I can't believe I'm the only one that's noticed it. I guess I'm hoping that you'll tell me that the company that makes your wire has invented a miracle way to keep silver from wearing off. Lol I think I must be dreaming. Thank you again for your wonderful videos, and I hope to hear from you soon. :)

But it's like any jewellery you make or buy, adviced to be handled with care. Ie. not recommended to wear it the shower or other situations that can damage the jewellery. I personally haven't had any problems with the silver wearing off, but it might depend on how you wear the jewellery :-)

I kinda knew you would say Jewellery Maker..I usually make up 'doodles' which I wear (rings..very basic) to see how durable the wire is and all the Jewellery Maker stuff is of high quality. I am allergic to mostly everything but I have had a JM silvdr wire rough celtic knot and a copper rose style one on since before I went home to Scotland at Xmas. I have horses so I really put them to the test...I have kept them on mucking out stables, grooming, washing dishes, windows, showering and I have yet to see any tarnish or show through of the copper (in the silver finish) and the copper ring looks brand new. I like to know that what I sell will stand up to wear and tear but I think Jewellery Maker is phenomenal because Who does all that with jewellery on?? btw I'm addicted to your site xx

The feel of the wire is a little different, but I think that is a matter of getting used to. But the main reason I was looking elsewhere, was that the wire from www.jewellerymaker.com wasn't that readily available anymore, so I wanted a more reliable supplier, and heard a lot of good things about www.wires.co.uk and they also have better prices on their wire to be honest. Jewellerymaker seem to have just recently started getting more wire available again, but then it is really a matter of personal preference. I still have quite a bit of wire left from jewellerymaker, so will obviously continue to use it as I also still like the quality. I hope that helped :-)

I have been using your tutorials to learn how to make my own jewelry and always make sure to credit your channel and tutorial video when I posting any photos. Thank you. I will be using your code if I buy wire as well if they don't charge too much for ship rates. One question, if I we're going to use liver of sulphur to antique the copper then the coated copper will not work right. I need to get bare copper right? Also since the silver wire has copper on the inside to you ever get the copper showing through the silver when your pliers slip and nick it? I have this happen sometimes and i don't end up linking how I can see the copper on the cut ends. So I'm looking for some that are silver color all the way through without it being pure silver (cost). Stainless steel I have found myself using quite a bit but it can be tough to manipulate in some gauges.

Hi Christina! Yet another amazing video. I'm a bit confused. Did you mention anything about the wires you use as being "half-hard" or "dead soft". Are the wires you use considered "craft" wire or is this something I'm not understanding? Here in the US, you can choose between craft wires of every color, or sterling silver, copper or gold- filled wire in a different hardness/softness, if that makes sense. I'm not sure what they mean. Thanks for clarifying. BTW, please don't ever stop sharing your awesome videos...and knowledge with us! :)

hi why is it that the website now does not have silver? please help :D

+Josy Gomez Unfortunately they don't sell the wire by itself that often anymore. They tend to save it for kits. But www.wires.co.uk is a good option as well, that I will be using more myself :-)

this wire site has changed and doesn't offer the larger reels, and no silver. sooo, sad. I have bought my wire from a company called parawire so I'll check back with them and see what they have these days. Thank you!

Hi all, I am a beginner to wire craft. I can’t find where to buy this wire from. After looking around I’m not sure what wire is coated so it won’t tarnish. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be very grateful.

How well do the pieces you've made wear, do you know? I assume you've sold pieces, and I'd be interested to know how they wear, and if the "silver plating" wears off. I note that you planish some pieces a little, does the copper core come through or does that kind of treatment affect the plating? How durable are the pieces, once completed, just generally?
@CSLdesigns9 жыл бұрын
+Kayenne54 From my experience it wears really well. So far I haven't had any pieces tarnish, including ones that are a few years old. It will only tarnish if the clear coating comes off the wire, for instance through being to rough with tools while making it or something like that.
@Kayenne549 жыл бұрын
+CSLdesigns Fine or sterling silver pieces can go through those vibratory tumblers, to assist with hardening off, and keeping the pieces' shape. Would you be able to do that with anything made from the wire, especially say a woven wire bracelet? Or does working with the wire while creating the form, sufficient hardening so the item keeps its contours etc? Sorry if this is long winded :-)
@CSLdesigns9 жыл бұрын
I personally feel that doing the braiding, weaving with the wire is sufficient to strengthen the wire as you're working with it so the final piece becomes nice and strong and durable :-)

I went to the website you linked and is the wire really that cheap? I was looking at the 0.315mm for 10m and it was very reasonable. I had to convert to USD since I live in the states. here that amount would easily be $50+(USD) for one spool of that
@kathleennoel1249 жыл бұрын
So sorry, but I have just one last question .... lol thank you for answering my other before :) Any ways, question is.. on a lot of sites, it gives the gauge of the wire and how much is on the spool but NOT if it's 1 mm or .8 mm ... that would be the wrong wire to get right? Cuz how would you know if it's the right thickness? or thinness? So sorry for all questions, I'm so new to all this. It really confuses me and you'v ebeen so helpful :)
@CSLdesigns9 жыл бұрын
+Kathleen Noel It's no problem. Gauge and mm both tells you the thickness of the wire. It's just that 'gauge' is what is used in places like America and mm is used here in the UK. For instance 20 gauge and 0.8mm is the same thing. You can easily find a wire gauge converter by searching on google that tells you what 'gauge' is equivalent to what mm and refer to that whenever you need to. I hope that helped :-)
