I just tried this wrap, actually, I used it to navigate my own finishing touches, and I was pleasantly surprised with the results. As I was following your instructions, I realized how easy you make everything look, that’s when I realized how skilled you are and though you make wire wrapping look effortless, it’s clear that you have a lot of experience under your belt. I am a huge fan of your tutorials and an even bigger fan of your work. Thank you for sharing! 😉👍🏾

Thank you Oxana, you are by far my favourite KZbin tutor and I’ve learned so much from you! I’ve done two of these now, both using my own resin cabochons and I have four more lined up to do in the same style, although I’ll probably get adventurous and try some different finishing methods. 😊

Whar a terrific video. My kids (late 20's) want me to move on to other types of art work I do. The oldest wants some paintings for her new house, her next younger brother just had a beautiful littel girl and he has been asking for little quilts and rompers and dresses etc. etc.like I used to make his sister and the youngest son wants me to get off my tush and finish a quilt I started for him several years ago but we've moved 2x, one downsizing of the large family home, putting a ton of things in storage, then moved again to a town house. I have so much fabric (beads, bead findings, gem stones I have several cabs I havent found a way to put in a lovely home of a bezel.) Before I take a break from my beautiful stones and wires etc, I have just found this perfect TUTORIAL by you to place my labordorite cab that I have been saving for a couple of years!!!! You're great. Thank you. I can put my beloved collection of jewelry making supplies away for a little while knowing I have found a way of doing what I've wanted to for quite awhile. That's makes me feel a little better.Thank you so very much. Evangeline

Thank you so much for teaching me this! You are a wonderful teacher and don't waste time which is fantastic in itself. I will recommend you to my friends. God Bless

@@OxanaCrafts lol It actually took me longer because it bent and turned so easily when I wanted it to stay straight. Also nicks much easier so I have to be extra careful. I do love it though. I just have to get used to it. Making the top loops was a breeze comparatively and I will keep shopping at Rio Grande as you suggested. Can I ask what rounded pliers you use? Mine seem to bend when I make the small loops. We have the same long nose pliers. I've had them since I worked in manufacturing years ago and they work better than the others I purchased for jewelry making. Again, thank you SO MUCH for all your wonderful tutorials!!

I laugh at myself sometimes, because I'll attempt your tutorials with less-than-exact materials. I know I'll learn from the process regardless, but for this one I used 20-gauge brass wire, 24-gauge brass wire, and some 22-gauge bronze for ornamentation around the base of the bail, ultimately making a briolette. These are the only relevant materials I had. I have to say, though, that it still came out great! Your tutorials always yield great results.
