![[Bonsai Handmade]How To Make Mini Bonsai Tree Wire Copper 02](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/x2iBuzVmhEs/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm seeing a tiny wire birds nest with tiny eggs in the branches. I can't wait to play with your tutorial.
Perfect! I was given a huge bag of green stone beads. I had no idea what I would do with them. Now I do! Thank you for the inspiration.🌳
Omgggg! I LOVE YOU! I hope you do a gazillion videos! My heart is happy hearing your voice and I totally get everything you are saying for some Zen Crafting!! NAMASTÈ! ❤️
I’ve done pendants and sun catchers but really appreciate your tutorial on the 3D version.
I’m so glad to see how much your channel has grown since I’ve been watching! I think you had around 4K subscribers back then and just look at you now! 🎉
I keep discovering more stuff from you… which is always nice cuz you’re just so loveable and authentic and knowledgeable! Sending lots of love!
yay! Looking forward to the willow tree tut. Its my favorite tree!
I like your method from top down to root, others do it from the roots up and it seems to take them longer. Yours is more efficient. I think there is room for efficiency in art. 😊
I love this. I can't wait to see a willow tree tutorial. I love willow trees.
Hi Yvonne, as you were making this I was thinking it would be really cool to make the top of the tree your family by writing really tiny on each bead the. Name of a family member. And so on or start with a grandparent one your side of the family and then on the other side of the tree your husbands side of the family starting with great great or great grandparents. That would be something special to keep. Beautiful tree can’t wait to see what is next.
Exactly what I was thinking of doing!
Love your videos Yvonne, you explain things in such detail, I have learned a lot from you, thank you!!!
Beautiful! Poly clay and resin was the plan!
you and I must be thinking alike ..all this week I've been watching videos of different people making these and now you making one ..so cool
I am just getting into wrapping and tree making. Thanks for the videos and more so your wonderful smile.
Thank you it was such a pleasure watching you video it wasn't rushed an you explains things so beautifully thank you so much will definitely keep watching your videos 😊 lots of love an light 🙏

You’re beautiful and the tree is a reflection of that! ❤ I love you’re intricate instructions and delicacy with how you put it together. It is stunning and I cannot wait to use some of what I learned from you in my own tree creations! Thank you ☺️

So Beautiful & I can understand seeing your American! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Thank You ! For ones I have exactly what is needed to start practice twisting ,no need to wait week (s ) to get my stuff by mail .
Right on!!
Beautiful tree. I love the idea of your doing a willow tree as well as trees in general :)
BEAUTIFUL!!
Love this. The beads were making me think of marshmallows on a stick. This would be pretty with some different colored beads, too. Either spring colors or fall colors. Thanks for sharing.
lol, I have been getting that a lot; the mother of pearl doesn't flash as well on camera as it does in person!
Yvonne Williams it's still beautiful.
Thanks Yvonne for the tutorial!
Howdy Von, thanks for the tutorial. Much love and sunshine friend.
Clear and helpful explanation! Thank you!
Yvonne you are frikkin awesome! love your vids.thanks! lol
Thanks so much. Love your voice!
Love watching your videos
Would love to see you make more of the wire gem trees, I’m excited to give it a try. But I need more inspiration and I love the way do your tutorials. You do very well at describing what you are doing. It helps us who are vision impaired or bl d.
That tree is awesome
Your trees are gorgeous
Your... voice... is so soothing...
Hi Von, did you ever do the second part of this tutorial? I'd love to see the finished tree. Another awesome tutorial, thank you!
I have a whole lot of guage 26 wire that I've been aching to use. Thanks so much for this video. I am so glad I found you. You are adorable and so talented. Is there anything you can't do LOL 🤣
Very pretty Yvonne!😊
Nice work 👍
Thanks for sharing 👍
That is so very beautiful!!! I really have to go buy some wire so I can work on the stuff I like to do, I just love making jewelry and you have taught me a bunch of techniques that I am really excited to try
Right on, Lisa! I highly recommend Parawire (not sponsored ;) ) as it doesn't crack or chip on me, is affordable, and comes in all sorts of colors! Good luck to you and Happy Crafting!
That was awesome 😊
We have gum trees in our yard sometime you can see a Koala sitting on bran hand about 8 different specyyy of birds so I cannot wait get the beads and wire when go shopping love your tutorial

Great video❣️
So cute looks like the apricot tree in my yard
So cute
Amazing
Thank you!!
I dig it
Love this! Thank you so much you amazing woman you!
Could you please show a tutorial on ways to set the trunk of the trees of the finished tree.
Wonderful
Thank you, Jennifer!
I found u by accident and think I’d love to do this with my granddaughter, maybe on a crystal 💞I’ll need lots of practice before that tho🤣
Love this! - Do you have the 2nd part of this Tree of Life Sculpture? so curious how the trunk get set that would be amazing.
Hi! Love this idea, but I am hoping you could do a tutorial where you wrap the roots of the tree around a rock or something like that to make a stand. 😁 That would be awesome!
❤️ this
Thank you so very much for this video. I have now made 3 trees and am getting better each time. I just have ine major problem though. How do you mount them. I have 1 attached to a shell, another to a rock and the third I want to put on an amethyst cluster. I don't have any glued down. What glue would you recommend? Any suggestions would be extremely helpful. I have been searching and can't find anyone willing to help me. I am to afraid to experiment with just any glue.
I saw these in a store recently and they were beautiful. Thought I'd see if they could be made DIY and found your channel. Nice work! How long does one tree generally take to make?
I am like that about the wildlife in my yard too. I want to protect the ones I call "my" regulars at the bird feeder. I call them mine too and feel the same way. There is a catbird that nests in the clump of bushes next to the driver's side door of my car every spring. He (or she? I don't know) no longer fusses at me when I have to go anywhere. If anyone else gets near that group of bushes, he fusses at them.
Brandywine6969 that's such a cute story about the catbird. Thanks for sharing.
My fat ass thought you put mini marshmallows on it lol
lol. to funny. They do look like little marshmallows.
That was my first thought when I saw the thumbnail. LOL
Very helpful Yvonne. I love your step by step instructions. Very “Zen” project. Helps me relax!
Please tell me where you get your crystals from. Thank you
Von. If you get a chance look up a guy on CZcams his name Kevin Iris. He has devoted his time for many years to making his trees. The time and work are just fantastic. I have watched these videos and wondered if he will become one of those forgotten starving artist. He is a great "maker".
That's was wonderful, ! I'm thinking Multi-colors , and mini.
How much wire did you use thanks I may have missed that bit
Do you use a whole spool of wire per tree?
Could you do a tutorial on how to make a wire tree with fairy lights incorporated into it plz?
I’ve done trees with small wire loops on the end (instead of beads) and glued small and medium gemstone cabochons to the loops.
I'm sorry if I missed it in the video, about how many beads do you think were used to make the tree?
How do u set the bottom.
About how many feet of wire did you use? I have an 18" diameter wall piece commissioned, and i dont know how to price out tge materials.
How tall did it end up being? Beautiful how many strands would you say you used? Going to make one!
Hola soy de Chile una pregunta se podría traducir en español porfi para saber las medidas gracias
can you use 20 gauge
Por favor para Mexico poner subtítulos, gracias , esperare haber cuanto te entiendo. Saludos cordiales.
I did one of these with Jade and Amethyst it was beautiful but it’s up with my husband in Canada.
Miss Rzhrt That sounds beautiful. I'm having a bit of a hard time with the choice of m.o.p. chips because it looks like an old teeth tree. 😸 I think rose quartz would be cool for a cherry blossom tree. Oh, the possibilities.
Tipsy Gypsy well if it’s a less jagged look you could you want I recommend going with a 2-3 mm bead I think Fire Mountain Gems Website should have them I haven’t seen the new catalog
Hello! I have a question. How much does it cost to make one tree like this ???
Was there ever a part 2?
Maybe you could try useing floral wire for the trees? It could save your good wire for other things.
I saw one on Amazon for 100$ but why but when you can make?
HOLA !!!. NO SÉ INGLÉS...PERO TU EXPLICACIÓN PASO A PASO ES FANTÁSTICA. !!! GRACIAS. PERO PUEDES RESPONDER POR FAVOR : EL ALAMBRE QUÉ NÚMERO ES ??. .Y LAS PIEDRITAS LAS VENDEN ?. GRACIAS.
How do you clean and shine the gems in a tree over time?
I dust them with a stiff bristle paint brush
👏👏👏❤
How long is wire
What are your thoughts of using 22gauge wire?
heya! It works well for some, but for me it is hard on my fingers and doesn't always fit through the holes in my beads :)
I just got, from Amazon, the Para Wire 26 g. you are using. So looking forward to useing it Do you do Cherry blossom trees?
Love this! I can't find you on Facebook. What town do you live in so I can zero in on your the names?
Well, I just finished my first wired tree with beads. Its setting in some resin for now, as soon as it dries enough, I'll take a picture. Its not perfect, and the resin has a few bubbles, I have more to learn, like don't do such a big project in 2 days.
I know that this may be the most random comment....I have a number of vintage wire trees, the largest being a foot or more tall. I am not sure how to store them while I don't have them set out for decoration. Does anyone have any ideas of the best, safe way to store them? Right now the are in my closet but that still allows for dust and what not. Thanks :)
Better late than never
I would set them wherever you want then take a can of Air you buy and sand several feet away just enough for a soft breeze that'll do it
24 gauge -28 is good
count your feet of para wire when possible.my square wire was missing 17 feet out of 40 when they sent me a replacement it was short 17 feet again.I dont know about you but I cannot afford to be shorted I want what I pay for.just a heads up.
I saw a guy do a weeping willow in the wind wire tree..all blown to one side
Lol We just spoke about birds at the same time.
Wow, i wish the proper measurements were laid out first. Length of strand and how much wire. Rough measurements would have been fine. Plus no instructions about root options. I was left with no wire for roots, plus I wasnt sure how to make the roots as i went along...
Thank you for letting me know! I'll keep this in mind for my next tree of life video!
