Wire wrapped cabochon netting technique

[@lightnindawn7710]

This is fascinating & absolutely mesmerizing to watch! I'm afraid if I tried to do this myself I would make a terrible mess of it. I'm much better at bead weaving with a needle & thread than I am working with wire. Maybe one of these days I'll get brave enough to try it. You make it look like the easiest thing in the world to do & I struggle with making a wrapped loop! All your work is absolutely stunning & I truly admire your outrageous talent! Your lovely voice has put me in a wonderfully relaxed state & that alone is worth it's weight in gold. I could watch you create all day!

[@MelissaConley1951]

I just wanted to compliment you on your instructions. They are always clear and consice. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.

[@wendyknoxleet]

Great idea. I will practice this today. You are not just an artistic genius, you are a wonderful teacher. Respect and appreciation

[@mibelloaleman]

This is the most beautiful, and NEATEST wire wrapping of a cabochon I have ever seen! You explained every detail to what would normally be a complicated project. But your bail is THE most beautiful of any other jeweler/ crafter bar none! It is exquisite! That is what caught my eye - the bail. GORGEOUS! Thank you for sharing.

[@CSLdesigns]

mibello aleman Wow thank you so much for your lovely comment. That really means a lot to me :-)

[@mibelloaleman]

You're very welcome! I know what it feels like to make jewelry and have someone really appreciate the work that goes into each piece. It's a lot of work and a labor of love. So, you so deserve all the praise! Ciao!

[@beth_nicholas9234]

I enjoy all your tutorials, they are very easy to understand and actually better than many paid classes I have attended. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with others. I truly appreciate each and every video that you make and they all help me immensely!

[@CSLdesigns]

Beth_Nicholas Thank you so much. That really means a lot to me. You are very kind to say so :-)

[@debeetrant7342]

I love your braid designs. Tried it with a couple of Cabochons and they look wonderful. I am going to try the more delicate wire weave next. Thank you for showing us how to do create these lovely pieces.

[@CSLdesigns]

Debee Trant Thank you so much. That really means a lot to me. I'm glad it is helpful for you :-)

[@sisteryaya24]

Thank you for sharing this tutorial! You are a really good teacher! Such clear directions and really good wire work. Bless

[@purrucajb1]

I really love the way you do your cabochon you show it so so simple I like the way you teach it so simple now that's a very good carring teacher that I really love thank you I enjoyed your video have a bless evening

[@CSLdesigns]

Jenny purrucajb Thank you so much. That really means a lot to me :-)

[@purrucajb1]

Your very welcome

[@susanbanker3472]

This is beautiful, and you make the directions easy to follow visually, too. Thank you so much. I can't wait to get one started!

[@moira991]

What a great teacher you are! The entire process was divided into manageable and understandable steps and explained well. Excellent camera work, too. The viewer can see every step.

[@CSLdesigns]

moira991 Thank you very much. That really means a lot to me :-)

[@Penny23737]

You make it so easy to do. I loved. I learned so much from you. I don’t have the right size wires to work on right now.

[@top8toyou]

you are amazing! Love everything you do. I have learned so much from you. it's wonderful that you share your designs. I have never done any wire wrapping before. I did a cabachon using your 5 strand weaving and made some roses to put on part of it. I wore it out shopping and received compliments in the first store! The second store a lady asked for my card and email address. I didn't tell her it was the first thing I made. So you have no idea how much I appreciate you. Have a very blessed Christmas.

[@Terry2fish]

I admire the ease with which you create these beautiful pieces. You make it look so easy. Your instruction is easy to follow. I aspire to achieve your level of skill. I am going to attempt this wire wrapped cabochon today using some copper wire as practice.

[@Terry2fish]

It went beautifully until I got to the third row. I was using copper wire that I got free from an electrician who had a lot of scrap wire. When I was pulling the wire snuggley into position about half way around on the third row the loop on the first row broke. Any suggestions on how I might repair this without starting over would be greatly appreciated. I think it was a weak point in the wire and it had kinked there when I was making the first row. I felt like it went much easier than expected and had I not been using previously used wire it might not have happened. Good lesson! Happy New Year!

[@lynnmckinney7810]

I just wanted to thank you so much for the netted cabochon, and also i have followed many of your projects. I like the way you explain every step in the process, that makes it very helpful! thanks again!!

[@CSLdesigns]

+lynn mckinney You're very welcome and thank you. I'm really glad it was helpful :-)

[@ZinkaSeptiaSaputri]

I've never seen detail tutorial before I got this video. Its so amazing. You really recorded how to wrappped cabochon step by step, this video not only showing photo. Thanks for your sharing. I can try to make a wire wrapped cabochon by myself. :)

[@CSLdesigns]

Zinka Septia Saputri That's great. I'm really glad it was helpful for you :-)

[@lauriesuzanne8848]

You’re an immensely talented artist AND wonderful tutor - rare to find both in one soul. Thank you for sharing in your artistry!

[@milenapimentel4820]

Just beautiful! I like very much to work on wire wrapping and your instructions are easy to understand. You certainly are a great teacher. Thank you for sharing your art!

[@shirley6996]

Beautiful! love this netted piece! you are a natural born instructor teaching on a level not only for advanced but for a beginner also in the same video, Thanks for sharing.

[@CSLdesigns]

Shirley Zolman Thank you so much. That really means a lot to me as that exactly my goal with what I do. I really appreciate it :-)

[@winksartistt3817]

Thank you for this excellent tutorial. Your instructions are very clear and easy to understand. I have various stones that I am going to try this technique on. Thanks again

[@gailrobertson9851]

Thank you so much for doing such a precise and step-by-step tutorial. I was able to create the same thing (likely not as even loops as you have - grin), using your instructions. I'm most grateful!

[@asriwahyuningsih191]

Thank you for making this video. I tried to wrap my cabochon with this technique, but did not get correctly. With this video it is easier now.

[@joannewton]

Can you use this technique for irregular shapes? I have a "chunk" of amber that I would like to use but don't know which technique to use to make it into a pendant.

[@lilipolastri372]

me podrias decir que material es.... estan bellisimos tus proyectos te felicito....gracias.

[@lorihaley1806]

Thank you so much for teaching us all this method! You're the BEST teacher! Just a question though ... what type of wire do you use? The wire I purchased for this project seems to get stiffer and harder to form as I get to row two. A hint for us all as to the hardness and type you use would be wonderfully helpful. Thank you for all the beautiful creations! You are an inspiration.

[@windsongoriginaldesignsmar372]

What a wonderful tutorial on this technique. You are a very good instructor! I hope to become good at this and incorporate it with my designs. Thank you for sharing your talents!!

[@crystalqi8067]

Thank you for sharing! I am new to jewelry making. I was really interested in making a cabochon for a ring and realized that you actually showed a cabochon ring in this tutorial. Can you show how you completed the cabochon ring design please? Thank you and all the best!

[@CSLdesigns]

Crystal Qi Yes, I am planning on making a tutorial for the ring. All the best to you to :-)

[@crystalqi8067]

Yeyyy!!!! Can't wait! Also, I have a lot of gems and semi precious stones that are not all evenly shaped and I always wondered how to wrap an uneven stone, big ones and small ones.

[@gailtilmont1929]

Crystal Qi I would like ring also!!!!

[@BloodRedKat]

Hi there, I absolutely love your designs, and your tutorials are so easy to follow. You're brilliant!

[@CSLdesigns]

BloodRedKat Thank you very much. I really appreciate it :-)

[@CSLdesigns]

To Lizann Wess. I can't seem to reply straight to you, so I hope you get this. The wire I buy isn't specified as any specific hardness, but it on the softer side :-)

[@smokesalot6]

I adore your work and ability to teach! Thank you I was able to get your reply to this gal for you. Or at least tell her where it is. Thanks again!

[@nanyelidfernandez9463]

thank you so much! i tried this as my first wire project and im hooked 😍😍😍😍 i love your work its gorgeous and thank you for your tutorials.

[@nanapena2314]

Everything you make are gorgeous, I love your tutorials, thanks for sharing them with us!!!

[@nanapena2314]

I really love that you take the time to reply to comments....thanks

[@carrieanderson5598]

Is it possible to print the amount of wrapping wire you cut along with the gauge wire used Thank you Excellent Teaching I’m so glad I found you.

[@Stop-Criminal-Cops]

Its a lovely piece and a wonderful technique. I have to wonder though, how would you go about cleaning it? At some point in the future silver will end up tarnishing, how do you clean it / what type of cleaner do you use to clean or remove tarnish without damaging the stone?

[@debbiegoble9836]

You are perfect. I watch every second of it. Beautiful work

[@catherinejones1558]

Love your tutorials! Was wondering if you could refer to the wire sizes in gauges as well as mm?? This would help me a great deal! thanks!

[@CSLdesigns]

Catherine Jones Thank you. I am already doing that on many of my videos :-)

[@joyclem7822]

These are so beautiful. Do you have a tutorial on how to make a bracelet with a wire wrapped cabochon. Thank you.

[@alittletlc9139]

Absolutely gorgeous tutorial! I love watching your stuff, and as a polymer clay artist, it's so nice to be able to incorporate your wire art into my clay art, to make beautiful pieces of jewelry that are unique and that people love. I was particularly interested in your heart ring. Are you planning on posting a tutorial for that? I know I would be very interested in watching it.

[@CSLdesigns]

Tamara Crum Thank you so much. That sounds great. I love being able to mix mediums as well. It really widens the possibilities. I might see about doing a tutorial for the heart ring in the near future then, as I have already had a few requests for it. I'll keep it in mind :-)

[@justtubingby]

Beautiful !I think it might be a good idea to use some tape on the back to avoid scratches.It can easily be peeled off when finished.

[@lizgaudry1906]

Quelle belle voix douce et belle, c est dommage que je ne comprenne pas anglais mais je suis quand même jusqu'au bout pour tout comprendre. 🎉😊 merci pour toutes ses belles choses que vous nous apprennez. Merci beaucoup et à très vite . Annabelle

[@maryjames935]

thank you so much for sharing your skill in creating your beautiful wire jewlery...lovely jewlery, I feel as if I'm learning from a girl friend chatting and sippin' some tea😊...thanks again for sharing....keep up the good work! love your jewlery and your videos!

[@christinehuck9963]

Jenny. You are amazing. Your teaching and the designs are fun and can be applied to many types of focal pieces. But I am having this one problem. I can see that your wire flows smoothly. I understand there has to be caution to prevent kinks, but my wire (copper) hardens and breaks. I can't seem to pull it through without having to force it with pliers (round nose) or manipulate through in a circle bend. The further I go, the worse it gets. What brand of wire do you use. Is it dead soft? I've been doing this for a little while, but haven't put much money into it and the quality is effecting the outcome. Your help is appreciated. Christine Huck.

[@martiwolfe4904]

Love the way you explain things!! Thanks

[@mortithedog8088]

I’m going to try this tonight! One question though, on the bail why does the middle of the wrap go inward? So it looks like a U shape? It looks so pretty but mine never come out like that.

[@juliek6341]

Thanks so much for the tutorial. It is beautiful and you provide such a great explanation. Do you buy your wire in bulk? Is there a good place to buy it?

[@CSLdesigns]

Julie K You're welcome and thank you. It really means a lot. I buy my wire from www.jewellerymaker.com on large 100m reels. I hope that helped :-)

[@josephlewis-theriault4565]

Hello! thank you for sharing. I really enjoy your work! I like to work with rough gemstones.... would this netting technique work on an irregular shape? It looks lovely on the hearts but what if there is no symmetry to the irregularity?

[@CSLdesigns]

Joseph Lewis-Theriault Thank you very much. Yes it should work with irregular shaped gemstones. It's just a matter of making sure you 'cup' it in with the netting around the edges and it should be able to hold it fine :-)

[@ampis8034]

Hi, I've been watching a lot of videos and I chose you as my instructor. I already subscribed. and I never get tired of seeing their wonderful techniques. I don't know anything about jewelry. I want to try to do this but I have questions. I want to do it as a gift and I'm worried that the wire leaves the skin green or something like that. Is there any way to avoid this?

[@JennyGSS]

Thank you very much for this wonderful tutorial. Could you please make a tutorial for the netted adjustable ring?

[@CSLdesigns]

JennyGSS You're welcome and thank you. I'll keep it in mind for a possible future tutorial :-)

[@daniellephipps4261]

Ok so I am new to this and am struggling a great deal with this weaving. My wires get all kinked up and they won't string without getting all bent and i am using 22 gauge wire and 26 gauge wire and it just doesn't bend smoothly like yours. What am i doing wrong?

[@sunibyrns7887]

do you use dead soft wire

[@1994abbygirl]

Nice video as always.. do you have a video of a wire wrapped pendant? I have a nice turquoise pendant bead in a rectangular shape with a hole from the top all the way through the bead. I can't figure out how to start a wire wrap with the hols.It is my first time to make a wire wrapped pendant.Thanks so much!

[@CSLdesigns]

1994abbygirl Thank you very much. I have several videos on wire wrapping pendants, but not one where the stone I am using has a hole in it, but you can always use a cabochon wrapping technique and not use the hole :-)
