[@susanbujno406]

Thank you for the tutorial. You are a master at the art of weaving. Thanks for showing me how to add a faceted stone to the bail. I have not found a way to simply add a stone before, so thank you for this excellent tutorial. I am working on it right now! I love the way you finished the back!

[@SandyBaubleLove]

I have made this!! Your tutelage is wonderful! BTW how should wire be held as not to have the warmth of your hands distort your work?? I seem to have a death grip... I am trying to use my fingers only my hands... Blah!

[@janetkreeuseler5259]

[@krusno-horskypruvodce9449]

Hello. You have wonderful products. Please what do you dip the copper in to make it look old? thank you Stan

[@lishal1625]

Liver of Sulfur. Stinky stuff, but it works!

[@ellieshandcrafted]

Thanks, Stan! I use a liver of sulfur gel solution to darken my pieces. Here's a video I uploaded last week showing you how to do that at home: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKnTZ5Wclsd1qcUsi=4iF3Fm7unAe8CCt1. Hope that helps!

[@lishal1625]

Do you keep your weaving wire on the spool?

[@ellieshandcrafted]

Generally, yes. I have a ribbon dispenser that I use to hold my wire, so I just pull it from there :)
