I love these links. I think they would be perfect for a pair of earrings too. I myself don't like really long dangles, but I have a couple of friends that do. These would make great long dangles, I think. I'm going to try it and see. As always, you inspire me to try new things. Thank you for being such a wonderful inspiration and teacher!!!!!

Following you from Australia. Every time I watch one of your videos a jumbo jet passes overhead when the flight path alters on a windy day. Love your work!

I am south of the airport in the nearest big city and when the wind direction changes, they redirect over me mostly in the evening. And as I type this (11 pm here) another one passed over. @@samanthalatimer1

One of the best parts of spring is hearing the birds sound so happy! I loved this tutorial even though I find it challenging to wrap with the smaller gauge wire. I still may give it a go. Hearing the planes in the background isn't at all bothersome for me. They sound like smaller aircraft enjoying the lovely view from above. It sounds like you live in a beautiful area! Thank you for another great tutorial!

This tutorial was really helpful Thank-you Im making braclets at the mo and have been making links like these by doing wire wrapped loops with about 5 wraps, but this method of adding a second wire seems a lot easier. And i like that you can choose the thickness of wire to change the whole look. Glad i found your channel, subscribed, thx again ☺️

Samantha, how do you decided the wire length based on the bead size? Thank you

@samanthalatimer1 3 ай бұрын

Literally, trial and error. I have a stash of cheap wire, which I use when I’m designing, so that I can mess about with lengths etc., before I go ahead with the final design. So, literally just trial and error 🥰

Hi. Do you mind me asking where you get the bigger spools of wire from? I only ever see those huge ones from the U.S. I’d love to by those huge ones, but I bet the postage will probably be quite a bit.

Such a creative way you’ve used the wire. You see lots of the same thing. Nice to see something a bit different 😊

Am i the only one noticing 3 wraps at one end of the wire wrapped bead links and only 2 at other end? I am guessing it is not noticeable as i do not see in finished prject. Perhaps i am too OCD?

@samanthalatimer1 3 ай бұрын

lol 😂 obviously when you make yours, make sure there’s three at each end 🙌 It’s often hard to make things when you’re looking through a camera so it’s entirely possible there was two at one end and three at the other 🤭
