Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 07. 2024
- In this tutorial I want to show you how to create a micro pendant using undrilled diamond cut gemstones. (You can use a drilled bead instead if the setting is too small for you to make) I will show you how to create the base shape, create the setting and secure your stones and how to finish your piece.
Hope you enjoy and please let me now what you think in the comments!

I dont usually like wire wrapped gems, but your wire designs are amazing!
Love your Tiger eye nails,cute tkz 4 sharing
Thank you! I love the magnetic colours. I does look like tigers eye!
So intricate so pretty!!
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing, it's such a pleasure to learn from you. I would love to see a video of you fixing up the wire when it's not bent the way you intended,
For an example when you first made the frame and the two ends going into the bail weren't symmetrical.
Peace 🙃
That is a good point. I'll put that on my bucket list of tutorials to make. Thanks for your suggestion!
You are THE BEST wire wrapper I have seen. It's just such a pleasure to watch you work.
That is such a kind thing to say! Thank you so much!! 🥰

You make it look easy. That small stone is miniscule. I would drop that and it would never be seen again

Hi , amazing design! If i make it and sell in my shop is that possible? Or is it your specific design which cant be used?
You can sell them no problem, the only thing I ask is to not mass produce my designs and to include a mention. 😊
Do you make up the designs as you go or do you sketch it out on paper first? Im using this video as my first teaching lesson. Im looking to get into wire jewelry making. This piece looks beautiful, would it be good if i use resin with a brush to coat the wires and keep them in place or its fine without it?❤❤❤❤
I sometimes sketch it up in advance but very often I just design as I go along. I am not a fan of coating wires, because often stuff gets rubbed off, exposing parts of the piece to air, and hence causing it to oxidise, making the design look patchy. Also, resing and other coatings are not really meant to sit in contact with skin, and I would be worried about the chemicals being absorbed.
Does this work for cabochon too or only faceted stones？
This can also work for a cab, you just need to make sure the support at the back are holding the stone in place as wellas the top.
Which gauges are used for what part. Main base, small coil base and small coil. Then, you use a length to finish it off. I’m new to this, it’ll be my first project. I’m not familiar with coiling at all. I’ll watch your cooking video, but I’m not sure how it will translate to this size fir me being a beginner. If you could advise, I’d be extremely grateful 🙂
Hi there, I advise of the gauges and lengths during the video. The information is in text at the start of a new technique :)
@@ImbaliCrafts I have watched it more than once. It wasn’t the lengths, it’s the order of use. No problem. Ty!
Having a really hard time finding this 26g square wire
I have it in my shop, if you are still looking for it. I ship worldwide :)
How much is it?
Thanks for your querie, but this pendant has sold.
Your fingernail polish looks like tiger eye. What kind are you wearing!!!!
It looks like magnetic nail polish
It's cateye polish!
It is indeed! :)
@@ImbaliCrafts it’s really cool.
Your fingernails block the view, it's hard to understand what is it you actually doing.
Sorry you are having trouble with it. It's just really small and hard to hold onto without covering a lot of it with my fingers! I have several easier tutorials that are bigger.
I agree. I would love to see this exact pendant design made with regular sized stones. I’d be able to see exactly what to do. It’s very pretty and I’d love to make this
@@ImbaliCrafts I appreciate all the hard work and generosity you put into making these free tutorials for us! I know it is a lot of work to film and then edit your own videos.❤
@@spiritwardiaries thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰
