[@kimlyons8550]

Thank you Melissa. I sometimes forget how nice things look with a simplistic wrap. I would never have thought to use my small cabs this way.

[@ZurickDesigns]

Glad it was helpful! ☺️💜

[@MissPeachCobbler]

I can't praise and thank you enough. The pendant like these earrings peaked my interest in your technique. But omg, when I saw the earrings a few days ago. I thought to myself, Self YOU CAN DO IT! 😆 I plunged in last night & was quite pleased with myself. 🤣I had some coin shaped rhodonite and 😭 I'm so happy with them. Anyway, I'll stop jibber jabbering, but I wanted to take a moment and thoroughly thank you and hope you have a excellent week 💕

These are great basic earrings that can easily be modified for personal style. Plan to make some of these and a matching pendant. Great tutorial....easy to follow! Thanks!❤

[@ZurickDesigns]

Thanks!

[@pameladudrow247]

I really enjoyed this video. I think using the square and half round wire aids in a successful outcome… I’ll be sure to try this design in the morning. (It may have to be a pendant if I can’t find two matching cabs😄) Thanks again for publishing an easy to follow, nicely edited video!❤

[@ZurickDesigns]

That’s nice to hear! Thanks for watching! 💜☺️

[@annnoyez]

I live the way you explain everything. Thank you for that. Your hands look like mine. But when I work with other metals than copper, I have huge allergic reaction... lol. They look all swollen and then they start peeling of. And the itching is terrible. But I have a good cream that helps me true the worst parts. That is why I like copper so much. No allergic reaction. Nothing at all. BTW, when you use non tarnished copper, it will go away in time. Where your earnings a couple of times in the shower. They tarnish faster then you think lol...

[@ZurickDesigns]

Wow! Your allergies sound awful! So glad you can work with copper though! It’s the easiest to work with IMO ☺️💜

[@annnoyez]

@@ZurickDesigns I live copper. And now I can wear jewelry again. Sometimes I am green or black but that washes off... 😂

Thank you for this!! Love the simple elegance of these!! I have a lot of tiny stones snd I generally just make tiny pendants but I really want to try to make some earrings with them too (and my sister in law wants sunstone earrings to go with the pendant I made her for Xmas), think I might try this! Thanks!!

[@ZurickDesigns]

That’s awesome! 🤗💜

[@tammiehonican76]

I love simple, once in a while. Love these. Formal or casual. Very pretty stones! On another video you were oxideing and you were useing the chips of liver of sulfur. Do you like it better then the gels or liquid?

[@ZurickDesigns]

I honestly haven’t tried liquid. Chips last forever lol (As long as they stay fresh)

[@Luis-dr2io]

Buen trabajo, bonitos!!! Gracias!

Beautiful!!! Thanks so much for another awesome tutorial! I have 20 sq and only 20 half round. Would you step down to 22 or mb use 18 square and 20 half round? Thank you sooo much! I can’t wait to try this!!!!!

[@ZurickDesigns]

20 gauge is just fine. I think I got 21 gauge because 20 wasn’t available.

[@andreathrasher5879]

@@ZurickDesigns Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️

Love this! So I have some very small black opal cabs, I'm thinking I'm gonna trying to scale this way down and make some earrings with them in silver. Thank you! I'll tag you on Instagram if they come out good! ❤️

You make very beautiful jewels, but the videos you upload you move too fast and it's bad for eyes. Please move your hands slower. Thank you!

Thanks for the input! 💜

[@victoriafosdick4899]

Just a thought... you can always go to the settings (the little "wheel" icon) and slow down the playback speed. Maybe that might help. ❤😊
