- PLEASE NOTE: In this Part 2 of Kayla, I kind of 'go back' to the beginning and show you how to measure for these prongs and make these prongs using Round, Chain and Bent nose pliers in case you don't have the flats or can't get them right now. I basically go through the whole build again but if you have your prong strip and stone and are ready for bale weave and design, you can jump ahead to timestamp 36:31
I think I probably over-talked in this one but I wanted to give a lot of details... and somewhere I made an editing blooper and said something about 14 gauge wire (I meant 14 inches).
I redesigned the back for a cleaner finish.

• Part 1 Kayla Accordion...
Let me know what you think and let me know if you need any help or have any questions. I will do another video tutorial using a cabochon for another variation on this pendant. Have fun!
Materials:
Prong wire is 14 inches of 20 gauge, round, soft copper wire
Second Frame wire is 14 inches of 20g or 18g, round, soft copper wire
Have about 10 feet of 28 gauge weaving wire onhand. Cuts and measures are also shown and told in the video.
My stone is 2 inches in diameter (1 inch tall and about 3/4 inch wide) Faceted Oval Quartz
I added a little 3mm copper bead at the end.
Tools:
Flush Cutter
Flat Nose Pliers (heads about 3mm to 4mm wide)
If you're using grid paper and marks, the marks are 1/4 inch marks and you can use Chain Link Pliers to make the prongs. - Jak na to + styl
The paper grid paper gives you the Circumference of the stone, not the Diameter... I misspoke.
Wow! That's magical! Thank you so much Izzy! When I first started learning more complicated weave wraps I never dreamed I'd be learning and creating such beauties as this!💜💜💜💜💜
I'm so happy you're happy, Ann, I love your jewelry so it's an honor that you enjoy my tutorials. Many thanks for this wonderful comment! Hugs hugs!

Thank you for doing this setting! I have had a stone for 25 years waiting for this because its so deep I haven't tried anything with it!
Wonderful! I'm happy to hear this, Norma, enjoy wrapping you beautiful stone! 25 years is a long time to wait!🙏❤️🙏
Beautiful work ! thank you for sharing it ! I loved all the detail and explanation you gave , you have a nice voice.I have been waiting for a long time to set a small cabochon, and you just show me how to do it.❤

I’ve been waiting three months to have time to make this one. I am sooo happy!!
I'm so glad you're enjoying this one! 3 months because you've been 'rocking it' at the shows this season! I look forward to seeing you all this weekend! Yay, Gail!
Just beautiful!
Thank you! I appreciate you!
Beautiful
Thank you!
What a really beautiful result..... Amazing work. Thank you 💕💕
My pleasure 😊Thank you too, Lindsay-Lou! Many hugs!
So so beautiful! Can hardly wait to make this!
So glad you love it, Gail! Hugs!
Your tutorials get more and more beautiful! I'm not sure I'm ready to do this😂 also you said you were determining the radius of the stone with the graph paper (great hack BTW), but it's really the circumference which on a circle, is 2x radius x pi...Im good at maths but just starting doing prongs😢❤❤❤
Thank you so much, Alice! I'm not sure what comes out of my mouth sometimes, I meant circumference...and I mistakenly said diameter. This formula works great for the soldered bezel, but it's not accurate for wire wrap because we don't bring our wire ends back together tip to tip (but it can probably get you close for the cir., but we need more wire), so I try to stay away from introducing any math other than really simple ways to get the measures needed. Thank you again so much for watching! xoxo
Check out my Rock, Paper, Scissors video on how I get the length for the rest of the wire needed in for the wire wrapped pendant, if you're interested ;) Thanks again!

Beautiful!
Thank you so much, Selene! Many hugs!
How does one know how deep to make the prongs?? I would like to prong set a 3mm stone!! WOW it's tiny!!
That's tiny!!! I'd use 22g round wire (maybe 24), the prongs need to capture the stone just under the Ridge and need to come down onto the stone just over the Ridge... it's a hard call but I'd think that 2 or 3mm long will work for your prongs. Practice with a similar stone so you don't accidently scratch on your intended stone... for these tiny prongs, you can probably use chain nose pliers... use the tip between them, the space between the prongs needs to be very tiny too... I would set that stone with four prongs... three is hard for me, but you can do 3 prongs too... Let me know how you do, Sandy. Good luck! Lots of light, work over a felt or towel so the stone doesn't bounce off the table if dropped. Hugs! Brave soul! Teeny tiny stones are a challenge for me, so I admire your effort! xoxo
@@PerfectlyTwistedJewelry Thanks for the info! I am gunna keep trying, even if I don't get it... I am tenacious! I'm wondering if 3mm IS too small!! LOL
Believe it or not, 3mm is a common size for channel setting stones as well as prong style. Took me almost a year to learn to set these tiny stones. If you are seeting more than one, you can do a channel set... check your members' tutorial called Josephina Opal. ❣️❤️
@@PerfectlyTwistedJewelry Thanks... for some reason I can not seem to do really small stuff... Then I see MEN do what I want to do, I think their fingers are probably larger than mine, what's up?!?! I do have farmers hands!! Thanks 😊
