How To Make Chain Links From Wire

[@roxannecoyne2744]

Yay! I made that first design last for my son last year and he wears it every single day. And I was looking everywhere for the older tutorial. Thanks for bringing this back. This is such a great design for men AND women. I'm making another one today for a graduation gift for you young man. Thank you so much, Samantha!

[@samanthalatimer1]

Oh that’s lovely! I’m so glad you are making men’s versions… I wish I had men in my life that actually wore jewellery… lol 😂 I redid the video as the original needed to be done better, so I hope this one actually is 🤗

[@roxannecoyne2744]

@@samanthalatimer1 Actually, yes. This one is clear and concise, although I thought the last one was just fine, too. Yes, some men just won't wear jewelry. My son surprised me by enthusiastically wearing whatever I've made for him. Today I used 18g wire in copper. It's beautiful, but I think it's going to be for me and not for the young man. I'm making one in 16G bronze which I think is more rugged and appropriate for a guy. This is a fun and versatile link! i'll be incorporating it into many other pieces.

That’s so very kind of you, thank you ☺️

Thank You! I just started learning about connectors and chain links from a Wonderful tutor in the states. So this is a Neat technique. I'm looking forward to trying. I never knew about creating chain links and such.

[@samanthalatimer1]

I hope you’re enjoying making your jewelry 🥰 It’s a wonderful passion

[@suzystripe6492]

Thanks once again! You are the best teacher since your instructions are so clear and detailed! Love this chunky link! ❤️

Love it!!! The romantic walk😂😂 My husband says I don’t talk to him as much anymore. After 30 years I really don’t have much to say😂 I have said it all

[@samanthalatimer1]

Exactly! What is there to say that you haven’t already said in 30 years lol 😂

Beautiful chain and sunset .. I live in The Bronx NY USA the beach near me closes at 5pm can't see a sunset would be nice .. have a wonderful day

[@samanthalatimer1]

Oh that’s sad! I’m so lucky to be able to access our beach 24/7. Hope you have a wonderful day too ☺️

Love this link as well. Beautiful area you must find lots of seaglass

[@samanthalatimer1]

I don’t actually go looking for sea glass, but I bet there’s a lot along my shoreline. Maybe I will go have a look for some 😍

[@kimdahlquist5480]

I love these links! I think my husband would even like a bracelet made with them out of chunkier wire. Thank you for demonstrating how to do it. And thanks for some "beach time" at the end... beautiful sunset! 😊🫶

[@samanthalatimer1]

Ah you’re so welcome! ☺️ The sunsets are beautiful where I live… I’m so lucky. I think a chunkier one would look amazing on a gentleman so I hope your husband loves it 🥰

[@marjoriecook7556]

“Funky, chunky, and kind of fun”…sounds like you are describing me and not the bracelet! 😂🤣😂 So cute - thank you.

[@samanthalatimer1]

Oh I love that! I’m also in the “funky, chunky, and kind of fun” club! Yay! 🙌

[@sarajanehaven]

Thank you for the these fun links and for the beach therapy at the end. I love walking the beach and that looks like a beautiful, long one.

[@samanthalatimer1]

It’s really beautiful and so clean. I love living where I do ☺️

[@doggmopp]

These links will be great for unisex bracelets. They will be very popular at the college where I sell my jewelry.

[@samanthalatimer1]

Absolutely perfect 😍

I've always loved watching Bob Ross. He always made painting look so easy. Beautiful sunset too. I'm loving the chain links. I wonder what a pair of earrings would look like. I'm going to give it a try, after I make a bracelet and necklace. Glory is such a little love.

[@samanthalatimer1]

Bob is so relaxing isn’t he ☺️ Hope you enjoy making these, Jeanetta

[@robinshade1]

Thank you Samantha!!! I have been making these types of connectors for years, but you showed me a much better more clean way to make them then I have been doing. Thanks again. You are very talented ❣ You have lovely views around you .... blessings

[@samanthalatimer1]

Oh that’s lovely! I always like to learn new ways of doing things 🥰 so I’m glad this was useful for you 🥰

@samanthalatimer1 I always am happy to find a better way! Thank you 😊 I greatly enjoy your channel 🙂💐

Funny how turquoise and green colours very often are used with copper. I tried other colours, but they never seem to cooperate with the colour of the copper. I love your link videos, Thank you and lots of hugs from Denmark 🥰🥰🥰🇩🇰. Lene

It’s so true! I’ve also tried so many different colours and I always return to blues and greens 🥰

[@lauresa10]

Thank you again for sharing your talent, Suggestion: Mayhaps a medium blue or medium green mat or pad would offer a bit of contrast to the pieces. Your light-colored board/table, skin, & the light reflecting back into the camera make it harder to see the actual piece. Still, I know you do great work & have a fun sense of humor.

[@samanthalatimer1]

Thank you for your observations. I’ll try a darker less reflective surface next time I film 😂

Hello, thanks for all the wonderful information. I wad wondering if you have a video that shows how to finish off one of the lovely bracelets that you make?

[@samanthalatimer1]

Hello 👋 and thank you! I do have one video which shows two clasp ideas (for my Egyptian link bracelet), so that might help. 🥰

[@karaspeckman8889]

How do you add on the blue seed beads?

[@samanthalatimer1]

You simply make wire wrap loop sections, adding the little seed beads on. This might help How To Make Perfect Wire Wrap Loops - Wire Wrap Links kzbin.info/www/bejne/hV6qenRrgd1lja8
