I love the music in this , that's so awesome

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Thank you! Yes, I agree - I know there are tons of applications out there. I hate having to go to the craft store before starting (or in the middle of) a project so many times I just figure out a way to make what I need!

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Great, I'm glad to hear it! I'm a huge fan of making my own components. Not only is it more cost effective, but it's good for giving your pieces a more unique look. It also doesn't hurt that you don't have to plan ahead too much as far as ordering supplies :) By the way, I don't remember if I mentioned that this will also work great with smaller wire - 16g, 18g, or maybe even 20gauge. Thanks for stopping by. Have fun!!

[@susiepeterson-lalonde4197]

Exactly what I've been looking for since I started making polymer clay items a little over a month ago. I priced bales and findings for jewelry making and they are ridiculous. For something so small they ask an arm and a leg. Needless to say, I could not afford to buy bales after getting all of my polymer clays and tools to get started. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting this video up in such an easy to follow format. I will be using this technique very often, I've got a container full of handmade cabochons and items that I've already prepared for some handmade jewelry. :) I'm one happy crafter today! Happy New Year and I hope your year is full of Health, Happiness and tons of crafty goodness!

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

SUSIE Peterson-LaLonde Very cool! I agree that some of the findings are extremely overpriced. That's exactly what got me into making my own! Glad you found this helpful and hope you have tons of fun making bails for your polymer clay pieces!!

[@susiepeterson-lalonde4197]

Yes, I have so much as stopped shopping for them all together. The ones I've learned from you are enough for my needs right now. The jewelry has been turning out great and mostly thanks to you for teaching this technique.

[@robinwhitmarsh128]

Great video!!! Taking it nice and slow to show us the total process. Thank you.

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Love it! That sounds like so much fun! These cabochons are a great project to play around with for sure!

[@carolmccollum9341]

Thank you for this easy to follow video!! I kept waiting for the Scrabble tile that was in the title for this video...

[@YossDillo]

Thanks for putting this up! It's actually perfect, as I've found out I am allergic to "cheap" or more conventional metal and need to re-do most of my personal jewelry.

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Great - glad to help! These are so much fun to make :)

[@garnet0140]

Thank you. I was going to irder some. This is better. I already have wire at home. This was right on time.

[@xxbigkisses]

having the double loop on it would def be more secure for any cording going through there. I liked this video. u went very slow and steady so the process could be studied. thanks.

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Thank you! That's a good point about the double loop - especially if you want to use thinner wire than 14 gauge. I like it both ways - I just go with whatever I feel like at the time! Glad you found this helpful :)

[@rosamariabayonacelis573]

CONGRATULATIONS, THE BAIL YOU MAKE IS REALLY NICE, IT'LL HELP ME A LOT, THANK TO YOU, 'CAUSE I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR BAILS IN DIFFERENT STORES BUT THEY DON'T HAVE ANY. THANKS A LOT. THE BEST WISHES FOR YOU AND GREETINGS FROM MEXICO CITY. 👏👏👍👍😃😃

[@louisedery1049]

OMG this is exactly what I was looking for. I already do the glass cabochons and everyone loves them :-) Thank you, I am looking for all your videos and I subscribed ♥

[@jakigodfrey404]

Thanks Jessica. Love this one, it's nice and easy, perfect for a beginner like me. I had some heart shape glass marbles that I didn't know what to do with, they turned out really cute.

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

jaki godfrey That's great - I'm so glad you're enjoying my videos! That does sound really cute :)

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Hi there, I haven't tried any other glue besides the E6000 for this particular project. It is a good adhesive for non-porous materials and therefore works on metals, glass, and non-porous stones (like quartz, etc.)

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Hi, thanks! The cabochon is about 18x22mm oval and the wire is about 1.5mm thick. I would say a wire hanger would be about the right size but the metal may be difficult to work if it is very stiff. Let us know if it works!

[@ayayacontesquivel9905]

Bellísimos pendientes y sus colgantes......Me encantaron

[@AlexisYenaiv]

oh this is awesome is much more simpler than the ones I been making thank you

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Alexis Yenaiv Hernandez Thank you! I'm so glad you found this useful. Have fun :)

[@AlexisYenaiv]

thanks, I went to get the wire, and they were so easy I made the entire spool at work, took me much less time than the other method I was doing im a happy camper lol

[@create557]

This is going to save me money!!!! TFS Diana

[@Thunderwoman71]

Thank you for this tutorial!

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Amber Yates My pleasure! Thanks so much for visiting :)

[@1houndgal]

I love this idea!

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

+Paris Wolf Glad to hear it! Thanks so much for stopping in to say hello :)

[@queenhustle2916]

Just found this March 2020 I love this video.

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Hey, thanks so much! I'm glad you stopped by to say hello :)

[@jimsardina8323]

Thank you for sharing. Great Tutorial!

[@ThePADeb]

This is a simple, pretty & quick piece that is sure to come in handy for many applications!!! Tfs & off to see the Nail Polish Pendant!!! :-)

[@LeosMom4life]

Brilliant !

[@clovergirl22]

I tried the nail polish cabochons and I added eyeballs that I cut out of a magazine. The clear nail polish acts as a glue. I also cut out the logo from a Sunmade raisin box and made it into a cabochon.

[@shirleyzolman9212]

Very nice thank you

[@anuyaadeshtapkir447]

it is epic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ashadominicafernandes3138]

I loved the video Mam . I just wanted to know that I have 18 guage wire, 20 guage wire and 22 guage wire . Pls can you tell me which guage wire I can use from these . Thankyou. Will be of great help. God bless. Tkcare.

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Hi Asha! Sorry for the late reply. Thanks so much for dropping by! 18 gauge should work great, and in some cases maybe 20g (for really small pieces). Keep in mind that half hard wire is preferable (not dead soft) and especially for the smaller size wires. You want the bail to keep its shape and stay strong so half hard wire is best. If you have questions about wire hardness you can check out this article: jewelrytutorialhq.com/all-about-jewelry-wire-wire-hardness-explained/

[@janesjewelry5918]

Loved this tutorial - Just made a little bail while playing Words with Friends :)

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

JanesJewelry Wonderful!!! I'm a multitasker too :) What are you going to use your bail on?

[@janesjewelry5918]

JewelryTutorialHQ Just started "playing" with fused glass.

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

JanesJewelry Wonderful!!!! My sister makes fused glass pieces! It's something I've always wanted to learn. If she didn't live in another state I'd make her teach me! These bails will be perfect for your fused glass pendants :)

[@patbuford9592]

love it!

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Thanks so much, Pat! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

[@2bakidagain]

great idea. I make my own also...they are just so expensive! The problem I have is that they tend to flip over to the back side of the pendent. I have to make wide bails to prevent this. ...Do these flip over? .......jane

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

jane campfield Thanks so much! I haven't had a problem with them flipping myself. Are they twisted somehow, do you think?

[@allaboutmycats454]

Thank you

[@yayagarcia5443]

What kind of glue??

[@laneb70]

I have been making these but have a question. My final loop you make keeps coming our oval instead of round like yours. Any ideas on what Ive been doing wrong. They are usable but I would love to be able to make a rounder loop. Thanks!

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Hi +vicki bohrer Usually with a spiral the final shape is determined by the shape you start with that's in the very middle. If you can get a nice round loop to start with and try to follow that around as closely as possibly, that should help. In my case, the loop in the center isn't perfect but my spiral isn't very tight so there's room for correction. You should be able to tell after a couple of rounds if you're starting to get more oval than round and hopefully you can rework it to get the shape you prefer.

[@laneb70]

Thank you....I will try that. Thanks for your help!

[@barbbear35]

Can I get rid of the typed out version that appears on my screen? I can't see what you are doing! Thank you-b

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

+barbbear35 Hi there. Yes! You sure can. Sorry for the delayed response so you might have already figured this out by now. If not - you have closed captions turned on. If you click on the icon that says 'CC' in the bottom righthand corner of any video, you can disable closed captions :)

[@aquafina6544]

what glue did you use please

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

I use E-6000 adhesive (amzn.to/1aQpPJU) and I show the process in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/roOQqaF7fbaVo9E Thanks for stopping by!

[@CATE.M.TAYLOR]

what was the wire u used

[@JewelryTutorialHQ]

Catherine Taylor I used 14 gauge brass wire, dead soft. You could also use a smaller gauge, like 16, but in that case I'd recommend using half hard wire.
