I love the earrings! I know you made this video in September, but I am new to how KZfaq works! I would only watch KZfaq videos through Google searches......But a little over month ago I decided to join KZfaq, and figure out how to maximize my viewing opportunities and not miss out on becoming a part of the growing jewelry making world! So, when I have time, I sit and watch as many of your videos I can! You are such an awesome teacher! You inspire me every time I watch a video! Thank you, Gina!

Really cute earrings, amethyst is one of my favorite stones. I suppose I should order some memory wire. In all the years I’ve been beading I’ve never used memory wire, I’m not sure why that is but you’ve inspired me to give it a go. I also love the bracelet you made in another video. Thanks Gina. 💞💫

From the tool maker: "The One Step Looper Tool cuts and loops a wire or head pin in one motion! The One Step Bead Looper allows you to create & trim eye pins simply. It works well on wire or you can use them with head pins or eye pins. The One Step Looper Tool works with dead-soft or half-hard wire. You can use precious metal wire or craft wire, as well as gold or silver filled wire, copper wire, or brass wire and stainless wire. Suggested wire sizes range from 18 gauge to 26 gauge wire. Memory wire can damage this tool so be careful with that. The One Step Looper Pliers takes the worry about making consistent loops! The loops it forms measure 1.4 mm in diameter. The One Step Looper allows you to customize the length of your eye pins."

I have a similar looper to the one you’ve shown & it’s another Must have, this one cuts the wire I love mine and am SO glad I bought it, I find that it doesn’t quite do a perfectly closed loop, but I splurged out on the Xuron 4 in 1 crimper pliers and using that to finish the loop off carefully, even actually using the crimping section, very carefully mind you, but it gives perfectly sealed loops. Thank you for your time in making this video, I’m looking for different bits of inspiration and this video fit the bill ! Cheers from NZ 👍🙂🇳🇿🥝
