They are so adorable,you have magic in your hands, so creative. Thank you so much for this video.

[@StitchesbySharonH]

I love this ring! So pretty! I also love the bracelet you’re wearing, which I’m pretty sure I’ve seen in other videos too. Would you please make a tutorial on how to make it? Thank you for sharing! 💜

[@cathypalus4006]

You're wonderful instructor You explain things so clearly Thank you😊

[@themagda11223344]

always cut off the ends of the wires so that the tip is on the outside and not inside the ring, because even if you crush it so that it does not scratch, it will loosen slightly after some time and start scratching

[@sherribrown7625]

Beautiful with all the stuff going on I love watching you and pushing myself to try new things. Thank you.

[@morokiya55]

How to measure the bazel to fit the stone if we don't have this plier? Thank you. Grear tutorial. Love all your tutorials. Lots of valuable info.

[@normabyrd274]

Another beautiful ring to add to my collection. I really enjoy your tutorials. Very clear and simple to follow. I have a file on my computer where I keep links for tutorials I use, categorized by Rings, Earrings, Bracelets, Pendants, Wire Wrapped Cabochons, Briolettes, and Beads. When I'm ready for my next project I choose stones, then look for whatever item I want to use them in. (Yes, OCD!)

[@loismeyerson2327]

Love the multistrand pearl bracelet you're wearing! Is there a tutorial for it? I made the other leather and pearl wrap bracelet yesterday, your instructions were on point as usual and it came out exactly as I planned! Looking for a few more similar ideas as I love this type of jewelry the most! ❤❤❤🎉 I do love making g rings also, I have a beautiful loosely wrapped (at the base) large real pearl ring that made years ago that I adore!

Wow. Nice tutorial and beautiful ring. Thanks Susan!

[@dtbuck1475]

Cute ring! I love the pearl bracelet you are wearing in the video. Is there a tutorial video for it?

[@carolmoore1461]

I love this style. I've been stuck on making wire wrapped rings the same old way but haven't made a bezel ring before. I'm anxious to make one. Also, kind of off the subject, what is the purpose of a half drilled stone?

[@JewelSchool]

Can't wait to see what you come up with! A half-drilled stone can be used for a lot of things. Lots of people use them to create stud earrings so you don't see any metal on the front of the stone. Good luck!

[@genxmomma5714]

Thank you so much for posting this method! Nice clear instruction😊

[@nadeemahsan1002]

[@wynm9785]

I’m just getting my tools and supplies for jewelry making. I’ve watched several of your videos and subscribed. So far, your tutorials are the best. You show every step and explain why you do things a certain way. I love that! It’s challenging to find the center drilled stones for rings and earrings though. Any ideas where I can purchase them?

[@JewelSchool]

Wyn, thanks so much for your wonderful comments! Most of the bead supply from JTV will have holed drilled in them.

Hi! So does anyone know how to do a flawless wrapping with the 26 gauge wire when trying to attach the crystal stone? I am trying to get mine to stay tight, and it seems to loosen as I wear. It also does poke out... having a bit of trouble there.

[@cathyrezba3132]

Very pretty!!❤

So how do you make the bezel after you turn down one of the wire?

[@merelvangool3939]

is it also possible to use 24 gauge wire with the 6mm beads?

[@tishsmiddy71]

I love it 🥰 But I could use a round bead ?

[@JewelSchool]

Yes, as long as your bead has holes in it that you can feed wire through to secure it. It won't sit in the setting the same as a flat bead, but it will work!

[@rajeshpatadia9518]

Nice work

[@murcielago241]

[@Irishjay-gu5pb]

Awesome tutorial, thank you so much!!! Just curious, is there a good place to buy these initial supplies??? Like the ring mandrel and the bead mat??? I'm just starting so I'm sure I'll buy a little at a time, but I'd appreciate any suggestions!!! Thanks again for a wonderful tutorial!

[@JewelSchool]

Hey there, yes! Here is a wonderful bead mat: www.jtv.com/product/sticky-bead-mat-appx-5-5x3-25-/JMBKIT595?mcid=XSOjsyt JTV is currently out of stock of our ring mandrels, but while we are restocking, you could use a large highlighter or some other household object to create your ring shapes!

[@blancahenriquez2139]

Beautiful ring. How much do you suggest to sell this Ringg for?

[@lisalu910]

If you're using a "stone" that doesn't have a hole in it like a bead, then what do you do? Do you glue it in the ring?

[@JewelSchool]

It would be very difficult to glue a bead into this design as the wire is wrapped around it.

[@Neelv4v]

Absolute stunning. Gonna make this ❤️

[@eyeonart6865]

I think this would be fun if I could buy the 14kt rolled gold 20 gauge wire for jewerly making as it would last longer.

[@acidrain8711]

I got into this wire stuff, to try to make some extra money I'm on Social Security and my money is really tight. I watch you all the time and every day you have a different must have expensive tool. But at least most time you will say you can use this instead. But the last few videos you have not done that, and that makes it extremely difficult to try to learn this stuff.

[@pepperedsunlight]

where do you get the tool with the MM markings

[@heididespradel7619]

Very nice, thanks!

[@netteh4438]

What kind of vice do you recommend? I’ve found, since I’m a beginner, that it’s much easier to have my ring mandrel held.

[@JewelSchool]

Hi Annette! Since you're making jewelry and a beginner, you don't need anything heavy duty. Just go with a light duty clamp on vise. You can pick a relatively inexpensive one up at your local hardware store. Good Luck!

[@sheila3845]

So is the wire you are using sterling silver ?

[@JewelSchool]

It is a silver plated wire, which has a base metal, usually made of copper.

[@uluvnic]

What would you do if the size is too off? Undo it or just completely start over?

[@eponymousIme]

I'd like to know that too. I suppose, if the ring is too large, you could wire wrap all the way around the perimeter of the band. That should make it snugger.

[@JewelSchool]

@@eponymousIme You could definitely wrap some additional wire around the ring part, or ... make another one for yourself and give the first one as a BFF ring to a friend!

[@sugarcitygyal9841]

Good job

[@tommtommkin]

I have a question. How do you make the bezel for a stone that's square or diamond shaped? I have sleeping beauty turquoise puffed diamond shaped beads, the holes are at the corners, that I would love to use there a way to do it with those stones?

[@JewelSchool]

Hi Bob! We have a video tutorial on how to make rings using various types of beads as you describe. Check it out and we hope this work for you! Basic Rings for everyday kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2PcY2mqf9tkm6s

[@edgarscale]

wondered why your video was blurry, lol...... forgot i was wearing bi-focals. great video!

[@fellowtheaterkid]

Is 24 gauge wire ok?

[@JewelSchool]

Sure! You may have to have the help of some chain nose pliers to help with the wrapping. Just be sure to check to make sure it will fit through your bead!

[@fellowtheaterkid]

[@Simplynikki98]

I have some stones that don't have holes drilled in them. Do you have any videos on turning stones undrilled into rings? For this video, could someone put a dot of glue like E6000 or even industrial superglue and glue the stone?

[@JewelSchool]

Hey Nikki! Yes, you can definitely use strong glue to place a cabochon in a setting. You can also create a wire-wrapped ring with a cabochon. We don't have a video covering wire-wrapped rings at the moment but we will keep it in mind for the future!

Can you tell the shape of the stone you are using? Type of stone? Is it cabochon or bead?

[@JewelSchool]

Hi Diane! These are coin shaped, drilled, faceted 6mm beads. The one Susan is using is a labradorite bead. You can use any color you want. Faceted or non-faceted. Here is a link to some 5mm labradorite beads that should work (1mm won't make a huge difference in the design): www.jtv.com/product/labradorite-faceted-appx-5mm-coin-bead-strand-set-of-2-appx-15-16-/JLW12199?mcid=XSOjsyt

I make these and I find it so difficult to use pliers! They ruin the coating and reveal the brass copper wire. Does this happen to you or are my wires cheap?

I scratch the metal too no matter which kind I use. I have seen people put tape around each nose of the pliers. Looks like it works. =)

[@denisebriggs2886]

I would use an Opal being it's my birthstone and I love them. When you say a coin shaped bead, do you mean a flatter domed shape bead instead of a round bead?
