Wow. It's extraordinarily beautiful. I love the contrast in textures, from the different weaves and different gauges of wire. And all the curves and swirls - very feminine energy!

Hi, my name is Diguila i'm brazillian and my is history is: The first time i see those style of work was on Universo Paralello and they are rare there, i think only 2 guys selling that on the whole party, i put my eyes on that pieces and i can't believe how beautiful they are. so i want to say thank you to share this content because this looks something from another planet.

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Thank you!

[@shacarapearce1180]

I have watched numerous videos on how to make a frame and pendant like this, I’ve never got it cause they’d go fast or only do part on video, thanks so much I finally learned, hopefully you have a video on small accent and prong for faceted stones. Thanks again

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Glad it was helpful!! I do have videos for both those settings. Search my album section on my channel for 'stone setting' and also look in the description as I usually add the links to the videos there if I use a setting in the video.

[@LordEric1]

My biggest take away from this are those coils. I've been trying to figure out how people do those. Ty!

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Pleased you find it useful. By coins, do you mean the stone setting?

[@LordEric1]

@@ImbaliCrafts coils** sorry not sure how my phone auto corrected to that

[@ImbaliCrafts]

@@LordEric1 oh I see! 😁 Autocorrect does that to me regularly, too 🤣

[@stevendarker2478]

That is 1 nice piece, Im new to wire wrapping not sure if I have the skill like you to accomplish such a work of art

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Thank you! You definitely will be get better with each piece. We all start at square one. Take your time learning. Each piece will teach you something new, and in no time you will find that things become much easier. x

[@theseaglasscompany]

I love everything you do. I haven’t worked with copper yet. This is inspiring me to start. Do you do face to face classes?

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Thank you. Yes I do! I used to teach workshops before covid then moved on the to do online classes, either face to face or in a group. If you are local (Scotland) I am teaching a wire work retreat at Garthmore house in Stirling in October. :)

[@vladburki4767]

Excellent! I like it. I couldn't repeat your work. But I want to do this. May be in future...

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Go for it!

[@nicoleburnett4321]

Lol I have octopus wrap stages as well!

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Haha, glad it's not just me!! 😂

[@aj2871]

Very amazing work! What do you call that kind of cabochon? I can't find any thing like those,very beautiful?

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Thank you! It's a rivoli. I have them in my shop :) www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ImbaliCrafts

[@sharonharrison2762]

Hi ! Great tutorial! Is your 16 wire half hard or soft?

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Thank you Sharon, it's dead soft :)

[@ricardomorais9175]

Parabéns 👏👏👏 Que material é esse?... Cobre, latão, alumínio etc...?... muito obrigado.

[@ImbaliCrafts]

This is dead soft, unplated copper wire 😊

[@ImbaliCrafts]

I haven't made a PDF for this one but I will be making a PDF for as similar pendant once I have my camera sorted :). Sent you a message BTW! x

[@SandyBaubleLove]

Why do you use large guage wire for smaller designs? Can 1mm be used? Thanks for the info!

[@ImbaliCrafts]

1 mm (18 ga) is just a bit too weak for my liking for anything larger than a 3-4 cm pendant. This is a medium/large sized pendant, and 1 mm (18 ga) wire would be too flimsy for the frame in my opinion, but that's just me,. You can absolutely use thinner gauges if you want.

[@lannieellis816]

I just love this but am struggling with making a proper swirl!! Help?

[@ImbaliCrafts]

There are several videos where I talk about swirls. Check out the vortex video 😊

[@magdolnahogye7656]

Szia. Imádom az ékszereidet, gyönyörűek. Egy szivességet szeretnék kérni. Ha van rá lehetőség, a fordítás le írása lehetne magyarul is? Köszönöm

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Hi there, I think you can turn on subtitles for different languages, but I am not too sure how it works. If you click on the 'cog' at the bottom of the video some CC options pop up.

[@kaikai52720]

How do you figure out how long of a piece of wire you need? Experimentation?

[@ImbaliCrafts]

You kind of learn after a while how long the wires need to be, but also, I often just do 'off the cuff' stuff with the wire length that I have left so it is not so much to have the right length from the start, as I just use what I have at the time. It's obviously different if I am re-creating a piece or working off a tutorial, but the 'gestimation' part comes after a working with wire for a bit. Hope that makes sense :)

[@austincrowmusic2378]

Finally a wrap on KZbin that doesn’t look like a blind child did it Lmao

[@ImbaliCrafts]

Haha, thank you! Although there are some really awesome artists on here if you know where to find them!
