Fabulous video with no annoying music. The instructions are clear and well presented. Can't wait to try and make one of these brooches. Have subscribed too.

[@onlinejewelryacademy8157]

I can't stand videos that force you to listen to annoying music too. Thanks for the great comments. I hope you have fun making fibulas. And, thanks for watching! : )

[@royalkairo8819]

A tip : you can watch series on flixzone. Been using them for watching loads of movies lately.

Thank you ! I made/crocheted wraps for the ladies on my Christmas list and wanted a nice pin to secure it. Your tutorial was excellent !

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

Thanks! I’m glad you liked the video. Thanks for your support! 😀

[@graingerjulieanne64]

The best instruction I have found for my first attempt at making a total piece. I am not in favour of using separate components as in the past the backs usually become lose and break off. Thank for giving me the confidence to make some new brooch projects.

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

Thank you for the high praise. It really means a lot to me to know that I have helped to give you the confidence to try to create a beautiful wearable piece of jewelry. That's the whole point of being here on KZbin. Thanks for your support! : )

[@mizpike1683]

Thank you! Great tutorial! Could you please have the camera trained on what you’re doing.. closer perhaps? I only have my phone and couldn’t see what you were doing. When it went in for a close up a few times it really helped. I just paused it and figured it out myself. Blessings, G’ma 🙏🌀✨🤗

Judi Morningstar 1 second ago · Shared publicly You make it look so easy. Thanks for the great tutorial it's just what I was looking for. I wanted to make a brooch for a friend who made me a shawl for Christmas last year. This will be perfect (if all goes well☺) 

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

Hi Judi, I'm glad that you enjoyed the video. I'm sure that you will do an excellent job making a brooch for your friend. Plan on making a few of them. That way you can decide which one you think she'll like the best. Have fun being creative. Thanks for your support! : )

[@nancyruth2008]

what grit sandpaper do you recommend for making a sanding block to finish the point on the brooch? thank you.

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

You should use a fine grit sandpaper. I would recommend a 600 grit. Good luck with your forging project. Be sure to check out the other forged jewelry videos on the OJA playlist. You can find the complete playlist here on KZbin or on our website at: www.onlinejewelryacademy.com Thanks for your support! : )

[@JaneThomas58]

What projects do you teach in your Udemy course?

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

Hi Jane, In the beginning course entitled "Colorful Silver Jewelry" I teach students how to make a fashionable necklace from silver sheet and wire that is accented with colorful epoxy resin. In the "Making Beautiful Articulated Jewelry" course, I demonstrate how to make a hinged bracelet accented with roll printed designs. If you follow the Udemy links in the descriptions of any of our videos, you can watch part of each course free of charge. I hope you'll consider taking the courses. Thanks for your support! : )

[@LrtenaL]

What gauge wire do you use?

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

LrtenaL I used 14 gauge wire in video. But, feel free to experiment. Thanks for watching! : )

[@pattjlfabiana]

put measures in courtesy, I'm Italian and I do not understand everything that says in a word.

[@OnlineJewelryAcademy]

Sto rispondendo al tuo commento usando Google translate. La fibula dimostrata nel video può essere fatta a qualsiasi dimensione. Il filo utilizzato era un filo da 14 gauge. Il calibro più spessore del filo potrebbe danneggiare la maggior parte dei vestiti. Ma la brocca potrebbe essere usata per fissare una sciarpa o essere attaccata a un cappotto. La lunghezza della spilla è determinata dalla lunghezza dello stelo del perno. Sono sicuro che puoi trovare istruzioni su come forgiare un articolo simile in italiano. Buona fortuna con i tuoi sforzi creativi.
