5 Essential Jewelry Making Techniques You NEED To Know!

🌟 Get 7 Days FREE ACCESS to "The Jewel Box" - All My Livestreams, Zoom Calls, Additional Content and MORE! thestylemakersnetwork.com/pla...
In this detailed video, I demonstrate five basic techniques every beginner jewelry maker should know. These techniques include stringing and crimping, how to create wire-wrapped loops, the use of jump rings, and how to attach ear wires.
This session includes creating three projects - a necklace, a bracelet, and a pair of earrings. I use a bead design board, various beads, assorted wires, tools including chain nose and round nose pliers, and flush cutters. I also share tips for handling materials and making the process easier. Other products featured in some projects include butterfly and star-shaped beads and lobster clasps.
This video will equip you with all the elementary jewelry making techniques you need to start making jewelry at home.

I’m so glad I discovered you & your tutorials as I’m finally starting to sell my hand crafted jewelry that I started during the pandemic. But I only did very basic bracelets & earrings & ready to learn more techniques to create different style pieces. So I’m excited to learn from you.
Question: for the bracelet project in this video, I’m still not clear how you connect each loop. You showed us the last loop to connect but I’m not clear from starting it from the beginning. Do you another video that shows the start of this bracelet project?
Thank you!

[@The_Stylish_Maker]

That's a great question, Roselyn. If you watch from 12.27 you will see that when I make the second component, I make the loop but don't wrap it. Then I put the first loop into the second loop and then wrap it. You might find this video helpful. czcams.com/video/OUITRG0T_Ko/video.htmlsi=1s1lpvrawykMr2DK
