Wire Wrap Bead Tutorial - Chaos Beads

[@gypsybarrett4402]

Just have to say rain on a tin roof is one of my favorite sounds ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@samanthalatimer1]

It’s lovely isn’t it. Very soothing to some people 🥰

[@juliegascoigne5804]

Just to say you are appreciated...thank-you lovely lady

[@samanthalatimer1]

That’s so very kind of you to say ☺️ Thank you! And I appreciate you for watching 😍

[@zenenvinluan2940]

Love these chaotic bead links. I mostly create with sterling silver but like the copper looks with these. A project for this weekend during our heatwave in California. Thank you for easy to learn wrapping.

[@samanthalatimer1]

You’re very welcome! Stay safe 😍

[@roelewis7683]

Sam, thank you so much. I adore your channel. Love how down to earth you are, easy to follow and a hoot! The noise is barely noticeable. Much love from Florida, USA.

[@samanthalatimer1]

Oh thank you! ☺️ much love back 😍

[@graceashamu4437]

I love your videos, it is the main place I go to pick up new ideas

[@samanthalatimer1]

That’s lovely to hear, thank you ☺️

[@deborahmahn6007]

Hi Samantha, I enjoy you and your videos no matter what you are making. They are a challenge to something new in jewelry making. And time out with a good friend

[@samanthalatimer1]

That’s so lovely, Deborah, thank you ☺️

[@cer145]

The sound of rain is very relaxing. Great for calming the chaos😅. I can't wait to try these chaos beads! So cute and fun! Thankful for you!❤

[@samanthalatimer1]

Hope you enjoy making them 😍

[@rowanmcnay]

Can’t wait to do some of these tomorrow. Must be something in the air but chaotic beads for a chaotic week! In terms of the mandala, I love chainmail! It’s so fun but does need precision. I’m just waiting for some bits that are the right size and I’ll make mine (I messed up my middle 😂). Please keep showing us what you love - I love to try new things and get out of my comfort zone. I believe in staying curious because you never know what you find - sometimes a new love and sometimes something you don’t. It’s all experience and knowledge. ❤

[@samanthalatimer1]

Such a wonderful way of looking at life, Rowan ❤️ I’ll just keep doing what I love and if people don’t want to watch, then that’s totally fine by me… Hope you’re well 😍

Hi Sam!! Love your videos & I've made lots & lots of your jewelry. No worries about the pitter patter of rain. I live south of Houston, Texas, USA, & we just got pounded by hurricane Beryl. A little rain noise is not a problem! Lol. Love this video too. Please never stop making them. And God bless your husband for all those sneezes!😊

You make me believe that I can do it too. I so enjoy you and get excited when you post a new video... And I love the mandala. It is complicated, but that is ok. When I finish my current project, I will have to watch that video 50 times... To make it, So that should help your numbers😅. All my best.

Or rings ?anything you show us us fascinating anyway but it must be hard to please us all,so don't try 😂😂😂do what excites you. W being in the sun and watching the nature around you is one of the simplest ways you can be in the moment and grounded. So I am glad you did that.❤

[@user-if8ew8nd7k]

❤❤❤ hello Sam, from Australia

[@samanthalatimer1]

Hello 👋

[@doloresherrera4529]

I love this and I will give it a try. I’ve never worked with copper. Do I have to paint some sort of tarnish protector on this?

[@samanthalatimer1]

You can use a protective wax, such as renaissance wax to help protect your copper pieces 😍

[@Beadlion]

Hello from California. I just found and subscribed to your channel. Really enjoyed this video and look forward to trying it myself. I'm very new to wire wrapping so I have a question. How do you keep the copper wire from turning green on your skin? It's very hot here now (41C) and I'm concerned about the metal turning from perspiration. Looking forward to more videos.

[@samanthalatimer1]

If you want to preserve the colour of raw copper, I’d suggest treating it with a protective layer of something like Renaissance wax. You basically rub it onto your piece and buff off. You’d do this maybe 2 or 3 times, which creates a protective layer. Hope that helps… and thank you for watching 🥰

[@robinshade1]

It's the mandala... not my thing! I use the centimeters now. Works easier for me.

[@samanthalatimer1]

I guess we each love different things but it’s good to know what everyone likes and dislikes. Centimetres are a little easier I think… for me at least ☺️

[@graceashamu4437]

Where do you buy your wires?
