I love this informative article and all the links to find tools and wires! She is a pleasant, easy-listening woman. Good teachers are exceptional.
Excellent, comprehensive tutorial on different kinds of ear wires. Thank you!
I love the Happy Planner Jewelry design notebook! Mine too!! Your voice is so soothing… and love your videos as a beginner! Thanks a million!!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for this video! I am a complete beginner and needed some ear hooks for a project and you helped immensely! This Vet salutes what you are doing!
I'm so glad to be helpful to you! 😊
❤ you get AAA = awesome as always!
i know this is a little older video, LoL but I wanted to tell you I LOVE your make up here, adorable color.
Hehe, thank you so much!
I giggled like a nine year old boy when you said flange xD Thankyou so much for making these videos, I've learned so much from these first two. Much love xxx
Thank you so much for your tutorials! I have been making jewelry for years and have not seen a better teacher as far as explaining and taking your time to elaborate on the ‘why’ you do something a certain way. You are an excellent teacher and I will certainly refer any friends wanting to learn how to master wiring to your videos as well!! Awesome job!👏👏👏
Wow! Thank you so much, Christy!
@@backtoearthcreationsTry clear nail polish as a coating for copper. I use it on copper clasps and earrings where the metal sits flat on my skin or in it as I'm badly allergic to copper. Works well.
It doesnt last forever, you can tell when it needs reapplication because you'll feel the reaction to the metal on your skin - with me it burns after a few minutes and blisters will form. Its about as gross as it sounds. But even the most un-DIY person is able to reapply it as necessary👍
Thank u for sharing.. I've been watching ur videos for years
You are a FABULOUS INSTRUCTOR!!! So detailed and consistent!
I 👍 agree
Thank you Yvonne!
Yes I was also thinking about getting back to basics
I ended up getting extremely I’ll so I stopped and forgot a lot .. but I’m back and I still love you so much . I still consider myself be to wiring as it is coming back by watching you again. I will learn how to get back to being a member again. 🙏 thank you so much.
Absolutely the best earring video on CZcams! I've been making jewelry for several years and usually use commercial ear wires, but after seeing this, not anymore! Thank you so much for sharing! I've been following you for quite a long time and I'm so happy to see your channel is healthy and growing! Well done🤗🇨🇦
I am so glad to be helpful to you, Jennifer!!
Thank you so much, as a beginner I’m learning so much! Appreciate you taking time to make these videos x
Thanks again, I am excited to see the tapered flat nose pliers, I didn’t know they existed!
Love all your videos. I've learned so much from your generosity. I'm a little jealous of your shirt tho. Lol. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Yvonne! I just wanted to Thank you for all of the videos you’ve uploaded. You have helped me SOOO MUCH !! Everything I know I’ve pretty much learned from you! You’re so sweet and well spoken and articulate the instructions so well!! I appreciate you!
Hope you are well! ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Thank you very much for sharing your tutorials, they really are helpful. I'm hoping to learn more about making headpins. I hadn't seen t done like you did here. I keep wondering how they get the balls on the headpins. My chin dropped when I saw you do this lol. I look forward to more videos of yours coming up. I have watched many of your videos and i am amazed at your talent.
How did i miss this video? Lol! Thank you, its great to get back to basics ❤️🤗🦋
The clear rubbery ones hold ! 🤟🏻❤️🥰 thank you lovely lady 🌹🤟🏻
I love your little sounds effects. It reminds of my daughter. She had sound effects for everything and didn't even realize she making them. 😊 Don't ever change!
I love how liver of😂 sulfur gives a rich patina to raw copper wire..and use a 4000 fine steel wool on it afterwards.. thanks so much for your tutorials..most I've done but some of these I haven't ...thanks from this grandmother in Florida ❤
Yvonne your tutorials have inspired me to get back into jewellery making. I’m only a beginner and there is so much to learn but you have definitely put me on the right path. Sending you much love from Dublin, Ireland.☘️
I know this is an older video, but Door 44 Studios has a great video on how to do the wire ball ends using a torch. I highly recommend her video. As always, your videos are great, and I'm learning so much from you! I love your humor and teaching style. Thank you for all you do!
Thank you so much, Catherine! I will check out Door 44 Studios!
Try lacquer on the copper ear wires. Your tutorial is awesome!
Hello Yvonne,
thank you for the helpful tips for better using the pliers and new earwire styles.
I make headpins from Argentium. They ball up very beautiful round and you have nothing to clean up. They make a much more better evenly smooth shape than Sterling silver.

I absolutely love your Master Class Lessons! So helpful!!! I’m making jewelry out of my ceramic artwork and I really want to make my own findings instead of using the boring ones from the craft store. You are making that possible and I cannot thank you enough! Your teaching style is so easy to understand and I love how you break it down so it isn’t too overwhelming but at the same time keep the video moving and interesting. Thanks for your awesome channel! This is what CZcams was made for!
You are THE BEST! I love your giving heart! ❤️
Thank you so much. You are very helpful and I love your humor.
Another great video, great explanations!
Cool video
Thank you!💝
Thank you so much for all your videos ! I have learned so much from watching you . I love that you are so giving with your tricks and experience . Thank you 🙏
Thank you...enjoyed your tutorial.
Hi Yvonne, I love your detailed explanations. You are so calm and down-to-earth. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! So easy to learn the way you teach!
Beautiful nail polish 💅😊
Aww thank you!
I just found you and just enjoy you teachings 😊. Your voice is very soothing and relaxing 😌. Look forward to learning*
Heya, Doris! I am so glad you enjoy what we do!
Hi... Back to earth, thank you for the Master classes, you're such a gentle person in how you explain.
You would make an excellent teacher because you care.
Subscriber, from Toronto, 🇨🇦.
I am glad that these tutorials are forever here on youtube as you were very informative. Great info. Thanks for sharing.
excellent one, thank you!!
Wow! What a fantastic tutorial! Thank you so much! ❤
Denise I agree it makes a handmade item perfect...I see beautiful handiwork , then a store bought ear wire ..🤨😐 makes it look cheap no matter how much work goes into it..all my findings are handmade..it took a lot of work but in the end its perfection.
Love the funky make up. Love your channel!
Lol I have to watch at least 4 X's before I venture forward. Love this show. Thank you.
You are truly the best instructor EVER. You are so patient... you do not rush everything. .. only the number of words needed to get the point across and VERY TALENTED and artistic. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. Lots of love and appreciation... Catherine.... big hugs xx
Ooh ooh I Want That Brad Box! Nice..
Thank you SO much❤ Excellent tutorial ❤🎉
Thank you, Rosalyn! 😊
That spiral embellished hook is brilliant! Thanks for sharing.
I made it 😊
Thank you and Randy so much for all of your years of sharing, helping, inspiring and motivating. I became ill and stopped working so I am finding my way back and in doing that I have found my way back to you.
I've been spending my spare time in between active crafts (waiting for resin projects to cure, watching something while weeding vinyl, making simple bead clips, etc) binge-watching your videos after your recent video showing your craft booth table (which looked so gorgeous!!) popped up on my recommended feed, and finally had to drop a comment!
Your tutorials are so informative and well worded that they're truly beginner-friendly while still being delightful to watch, no "you should know this already because it's SO basic and beginner, so we're gonna skip past it" moments that leave beginners to wire wrapping scrambling to open a new tab and find information on what's been skipped over, and I can't wait to finish watching the wire wrapping master class series and trying out some of the techniques I've been learning!
Aside from that, the makeup lover in me can't help but gush over how incredible your makeup looks in your intro!! The golden color makes your eyes pop and brings out the brightness in your earrings, plus in tandem with your necklace (which I don't even have words to describe the beauty of! Your work is truly art! ♥) it gives a regal yet earthy vibe that fits so well with the vibe of the video ^u^
Your video by far is the best. All I wanted was to find how to make a strong earwire. You used nylon hammer! Thank you!! I was using raw hide which wasn’t horrible but nylon makes more sense. Bless u woman!
Very much appreciated making these ear wires! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Hi Von I Appreciate You For Giving Us The Opportunity to Learn From Your Master Class with Wire Wrapping.. You The Best..
So enjoying these Yvonne... watching for now.. I will order my wire later. But, this beats any book out there... So sweet of you to have made these..very inspiring.. thank you.
Great Video ....thanks!
You need to soak the hammer in water it will cause the end to swell & make a tight fit. But 1st remove any finish that fits inside the head, as well as on the end cut. The metal is already coated but putting a little WD-40 on the 'outside' metal will keep it from rusting... (although, I wouldn't bother with coating the metal.) The process of soaking (or steaming) the handle traditionally would have already been done before you bought it.
BTW ... I love your series!
Hi Von. It’s been a while but just want to Thank You so much for posting this. You are a Master in your Art and Teaching. So I’ve been at this wire wrapping for about 3 years and I still consider myself a beginner. Wire wrapping has to be one of the more challenging hobbies. All your tips are so spot on and wish I had this stuff way earlier but all is good. I would like to add an observation that I always see from most tutorials but not explained In full. Yes you should always make a fresh cut with every piece with your flush cutters , And not just because it looks tidy it serves a purpose of being able to grip your wire as close to end as you need. Makes a huge difference. Try twirling around an uncut piece and then a cut piece. You will not slip your grip as I call it. Also you mentioned about the tiny ends of your round nose. My favorite pair is a German style micro style round nose. I think they go by several brands but pretty sure they are all made by same manufacturing and one is Beadsmith and i found them at Hobby Lobby and then I found them online at several venders. Again Thank you for all your hard work and kindness and my craft alongside every month. Just some tips for all your subs. Happy Wrapping. Peggy L
Looking good. Great video.
The best earring video yet.
This has been so informative! Thank you!
Loved this helpful video. Thanks for your personal touch.
Awesome teacher! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise and your kind manner. So happy I found y’all. Looking forward to being in another class. Again, THANK YOU!
Lorraine
I just want too say thank you so much for everything you do for us thankyou thankyou thankyou ❤❤
It's our pleasure! Thank you!
I am loving your videos. I started with resin, then clay, the wire wrapping will add beauty to both of those things. I am so excited. Thank you.
Thanks, Yvonne, for the excellent tutorial. Well done and full of valuable information.
I have been working with wire for about 25 years in a haphazard, on again off again sort of way and I am like you in that I wish there had been more resources available in the past. The lack of accessible information is probably a lot of the reason I still consider myself a beginner. In addition to the lack of information, I also struggled with a total unavailable marketplace. Numerous internet art market sites have helped correct that problem. But the lack of a market at the time, and my hard-headed decision that I only wanted to work in sterling finally left me making jewelry for friends, family and myself. When 90% of your product is given as gifts or sold for material cost, disillusionment is not far behind. Anyway, I loved your video and intend to follow all the others you make. Thank you again.
BTW. If it means anything coming from a grumpy old lady, I think you are absolutely adorable.
In wire rap Masterclass lesson 2 Ear hooks. Secure the hammer head with a metal wedge. Thank you for your clear explanation. Greetings from Riekie from the Netherlands
Hi Von ☺️ Thanks for the great tutorial! I have a couple thoughts...
You could use a square horseshoe nail, found at farm supply stores, to shim your chasing hammer with the loose head. Just nail it straight down in, then cut it off with your Dremel.
Also, could you use resin ( like UV resin) to sort of enamel your ear wires and posts to make them more hypoallergenic? We used to use it on rings that would turn your finger green; as long as the resin is stable, that should work. Great day, everyone!
You are so awesome Yvonne. You are patient, calm, talented, kind, and just beautiful to boot! You’re videos are binge worthy! Therefore My battery is running low! Thank you for sharing everything you do in such a lovely manner. All Best wishes for you in everything you do.
Great I'm a new subscriber and a jewellery beginner thank you.
I really appreciate that you do these things to help us understand and save us for the mistakes. Your little propane torch ( if someone hasn’t told you or you have figured it out )just push the button that lights the torch and it will release the lock release the button and it will turn off
By the way, love your tutorials.
I am loving your video series and learning a lot about this topic. Incorporating some of these wire embellishments with my leather earrings. I'd fill that loose hammer with resin. Keep those videos coming, we love them!!
i really love this class serie about wire wrap(or anything for that matter ) i learn a lot and find it very interesting as i m a beader but very new to wire wrapping. i wanted to thank you a lot ! love from belgium !
I love your videos
As far as the coper ear wires- maybe seal with ProtectAClear or clear nail polish- some type of sealer? Love your styles. It was a great review for me and I learned some new techniques.
Can't believe I've missed this video. Thank you for this, I needed this. You are awesome. Keep it going!
That’s truly the best tutorial I’ve seen 😊 thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Wow! I am new to jewelry making and have learned so much. I love the tips you give and how detailed you get. You have such a wonderful way of teaching and that makes people feel comfortable. Can't wait for you next one.
Thank you so much for sharing with us all you’ve worked very hard to learn, yourself. This is invaluable and very kind of you! You’re so very sweet. Continued success to you! 💕
I love that you give us a lot of info on wire. I learn so much from you
I think you are thinking of Argentium? Love this series, so much helpful information that you share!
Hi.thank you so much for the lessons.i regret not being able to watch your videos but am glad to have the chance to follow the class later and save them.
Can't wait
Thank you for your instructions, you have taught me so much in 4 days. Keep up the great work you are doing an amazing job!❤
Thank you! It's our pleasure!
Love the bonus - metal smithing! Woot! Thx for these awesome lessons 😃
Love your work by the way, your my go to when trying to learn new things
I love how everything I look up that involves wire wrapping has a tutorial made by you! First person that wire wraps I have subscribed to & I always look to see if you have a video for what I'm looking for. :) you go girl
Nice video with lots of good tips. I really love how you zoom in to show your work. Most jewelry videos do not zoom into to see the work and I really have a hard time seeing what is going on. I love how you do your spirals. Mine always seem to come out uneven and not a true spiral. Oh and the tip about making two ear wires at the same time so they are the same size was really a good idea.
Thank You!!! I appreciate the training and professionalism. Love the tutorials. I’ll be watching this several times as I’m working with my wiring and beads. ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Thank you! I’m learning so much ❤
I just 💘 the ear hooks with the coils. Beautiful !!! Thank you for making such an easy to follow along video. It makes me want to start right away, but i need tools & wire.
I'm super new to working with wire & I am working my way through your tutorials. I love them so much! You're very good at describing things in a way that makes sense, even to a complete beginner like me. :) Thank you for putting these out here. I tell myself "just smoosh it down" while I'm following along.
Thank you very clear and precise
Really love this makeup on you. And thank you so much for this amazing series!
Great tips thank you 🤩🤩🤩💖💖
Thank you, you are sooooo patient. Yes, i'm a beginner who hasn't made anything to date.
You are right where we all start!!! I hope our videos can be helpful to you
Thank You❤️ Great tut
Love the detail about the product contact. Thank you for the orientation tip. Plier spacing tips too. :) Mirror image with the spiral right and left.
