I meant to put the video about the gifts from a visitor in a separate video! It did not belong in the middle of this! 😂😂😂 Hope you guys weren't too confused.

_finally a jewelry making channel with the raw chaos I'm looking for_

it's really encouraging to have someone actually _say_ they don't know what they are doing instead of just doing it, makes me feel better that I'm flying blind with jewelry making. books and videos are fine but sometimes you just need to hear someone else admit their lack of knowledge. Genuinely saying thank you. :)

We can learn more from our failures than we can from our successes. Your video taught us to invest a little thought in advance so that the wire arms are long enough to hug the stones. It takes a lot more wire than one might initially expect.

Love the relaxed way you create and record! Nothing is perfect but it ALWAYS works perfectly!!! Love the random models! I'm crazy for your creativity!!!!

Like your style 😂 There's way too much seriousness in jewellery making and crafting 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I just found your channel, and as both an artist/crafter/sculptor/jewelry maker and a lover of comedy, I believe I’ve found my new bliss, so thank you!👍🏻😂

I already sell wire wrapped earrings, but your videos have gotten me inspired to start selling necklaces as wel! I love watching these!

You’re the man! I’m staying with your channel!! You had me laughing so many times but also teaching me something. You’re awesome and I liked them! I’d buy for sure 🙌🏼

OMG Matt, you are nuts! But very creative, I love your creativity. Never boring, I don’t wire wrap but love watching you.

Thanks for showing us how it can be done - - - and with a GREAT sense of humor!

Love the raw, down to earth, honest approach to your video! Am excited to try this! The pendants are awesome too!

In the middle of the Mass Confusion I found OODLES of Inspiration, Thank-You for this share!

I like the way these turned out; the thicker wire, in that color, is attractive. The one with the swirl tail looks pretty good on the model. Thanks for sharing, & I appreciate your humor!

I love this guy. Great work. You make unique so simple. Thank you. So enjoyable, but it sounds like he's surrounded by people.

Nice job Mr. Matt! I really love your wrap technique and look forward to giving it a try! Happy Creating!

Beautiful work Matt! As a longtime jewelry designer, I have yet to master wire wrapping. 😫 Very helpful tutorial and I think it's great seeing men doing this kind of lovely wirework. Your ideas are just so inspiring! Thanks for this...🙂💙

The blue stone is beautiful. I love this craft. I might try it myself. Thank you!

It's fun watching you curling & folding your wires. Can't help laughing & learning at the same time. Beautiful craft.👍❣️

I just started listening to this video 2mins ago and ALREADY I love this guy!!! He's soooo REAL!! PLUS he's such a great comedian!!~

I love it, Cynthia!!.. What great gifts for Matt. I love how these 3 turned out. The one with the swirl is my favorite. Blessings Matt. 🎄🎄👏👏👏🕯👍👍❣

They are pretty. I know this is an older video, but I'm learning. Thank you for sharing these helpful videos! The first stone I tried to wrap, I used 18 gauge, lol. Now I had to admit to having arthritis in my hands.

New materials tools displays books always learning and growing. Thanks Matt.

You're hilarious, you just got a new subscriber. Thank you for being close up to the camera so we can see what you are doing and your excellent explanations! And your humor😂🤣 I love it! Your voice sounds like Dax Shephards.

Love that! I was also thinking of adding stones when u did those twisted wraps. 💕

That was very entertaining, I think all artists have that dialog running through our minds as we work, it was fun to hear it. I also enjoyed seeing your gifts and was ooohing and aaahhhing. Reminded me how much I loved taking my daughter to rock shows when she was little, so in the middle of your vid I took a break and found a local rock show to haul my friend's kids to next month. I got on your show by accident, but now I'm a fan and subscribed. I will hauling my rock collection out. Thanks!

Love this so much . Appreciate that you showed your mistakes ! I am going to give it a try this afternoon . Thanks for the fun helpful video !

I love that you showed your mistakes. I am just learning to do wire wrapping and this video has been great.

Loving this hammered 12g aluminum, especially these pieces, so original, so different! Great work!

Matt, I really enjoyed your jewelry making and I love the tigers eye, my favorite. Keep on with your tube stuff. Love it!

I also said boo to responsibilty, accountability, and maturity. I'm grounded for a month.

Pretty nice! I’m definitely feeling a bit more courageous about trying to do this now. Love your sense of humor. I can tell you crack yourself up sometimes!🤪😁 Thanks so much for sharing!🥰

I love them all the dark blue is my favorite, I love the curl at the bottom. I would wear them all, so unique and cool. Great Job!

You are wonderful, a little freaky but very talented. I’ve always loved beautiful stones. You do amazing things with that 20 gauge wire!!

I think this is a great idea for wrapping hole-less stones. Thank you for the idea, Matt. The blue is my favorite.

Definitely like the hammered look. I was give lots of 10, 12, and 14 AWG copper, and was wondering how to use it. Thank you!

I stumbled upon Matt's videos and just want to say "thank you" for making me laugh so much.

Matt, I just found your channel. I had a young customer at the shop where I worked who developed a great line of similar works of art. He always explained what he was doing but now I have actually seen the work in progress. Thanks for the video. Hope to find more.

Hey Hey 🙋. I love all of these. The stones are bootaful, super schwartz-a-licorice, man. There is nothing at all wrong with any of them. You made it work for each one. Thanks Mattio, and thank you Cynthia for your caring and sharing. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy New Year to all. 😇🎄🦌🛷🎅

Crazy and creative, great combination. I love these hammered ones! I wondered about 12 Gauge wire. Not too many demos on this size wire. You are so outside the box, always experimenting, with your goofy sense of humor, this is what an artist does. Always something new and inventive. This is easy, fast, and looks stunning. Great job, Matt!😀. Subscribed.

I love how industrial these look! Thanks for the idea 👍😊

Great video. Great present. The brightly colored stones look like dyed magnesite. Love it.

You do best when you have fun with it and you keep trying. I really like your approach to your craft and I like your craft even more haha

Matt, you are so much fun to watch! I loved this video and I'd buy these pendants. Well done!

Thankyou Matt! I learned so much and i been wanting to play with stones so bad lately! Please keep up the awesome creative work! You're awesome!

Loved the whole vid ..your descriptive powers are brill Thank you made my day lifted me out of depression x I live the swirl tail

Matt, So glad I found this. I have never done any wire wrapping but have an interest in trying it and you made it look like something I might actually be able to do. I actually laughed out loud more than once watching this. You are very entertaining and I wish all how to videos were this free and this fun! Thanks for making my day. I'm going to look for your Facebook group.

Oohhhh, I found this in soooo many colors. After Christmas, LOOK OUT!

Wow Matt, lurve these pendants! I enjoy watching you experiment. Great viewing and also the silly stories make me laugh and god knows we need it. Thanks for sharing.Keep it up. ❤️ from the 🇬🇧.

I love Matt's craziness. He does the most amazing jewelry. He is also a very amazing person. I buy alot of stuff from him and he always looks out for me.

I love this pieces, they don't need the thin wire wrapping around, only the thick one, looks very organic and unique.

..." he's resisting the hug! the 3- armed alien hug!.... Matt, you have an insane imagination! I can relate -- as a kid peeling potatoes in my mom's kitchen -- I was really performing delicate cancer surgery on them and if I didn't have to cut out too many bad spots or if not too large - well, I proclaimed my potato patient to have lived! Thanks for the memories!

I use an old antique flat iron granny used to heat on a wood stove. Makes a great anvil for hammering!!!😅

Love the thick, hammered aluminium ! Gonna try this as last minute Xmas presents. Thank you Matt. Have a good Christmas. xx

I literally lol-ed at carrying it to the grocery store lol!!!! awesome gifts and love the way the pendants turned out

Omg. I love these. I hope i can wrap mine as easily as you made it look

Glad to hear elbow grease is useful! I'm always scrolling KZfaq for fun wire wrapping. I can actually see the muscles on your figures too so good job that with your workouts.....

Really liked the hugging stones❤ really like your sence of humor😂😊🤪👍👍👍

You're so very entertaining ! I have learned so much so happily !

learning from these..we got to have a longer arms to hold the stones securely..

I absolutely LOVE all your pieces!!! Thank you for sharing these creations! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Hi Matt. I'm a beginner jewelry maker. I am so glad I found your videos. You cracked me up and I learned to wrap stones. Thanks a lot. I'll be watching your videos for sure.

Thanks for the fun tutorial. I finally took a try and came up with a nice crazy pendant!

Matt! Thank You for making my day. As a maker of jewelry myself & love hammered wire and saw your beautiful design. I don't know what I dig better, this totally perfect, easy to understand, interesting video that I totally absorbed . Or your pie in the sky outrageously funny, authentic, nutty, sense of humor. Your mellow fun vibes makes this video. Thanks for being so cool and fun...if I knew you I'd want you to be one of your besties. Rock on! Much success to you. Thanks for sharing your work. 👍💜🐎🥳

Those stones are really gorgeous. Can't wait to see what you do with them. Exciting stuff.

I love your videos !! Learning this in my late 60's, lol. So far I've made a necklace for my dog. Now I want to make a ring , your video from the other night. AND, going to look for you on Facebook.

Your too funny!!!! I love your style and work!! Going to make one fir a customer today. Tks for the tips and the laughter!!

Very enjoyable and you are great at explaining! Loved the end results. Thank you for teaching us. 🥇🏆❤️💯

I am so happy to have discovered your channel. Your videos are wonderful and you are so much fun. Elbow grease, haha, I love it.

I can't wait to watch the rest of your amazing videos!! Thanks!!

Lmao you’re hilarious. Loved the elbow grease bit. Love the crafty chaos bc that’s how I do things when I wire wrap, “not sure if this will work but we’re gunna a try it!” Type of art. Immediately subscribed 🤙🏼

You are truly the smartest man alive currently today in my world. Thank you master Matt Wire God of the cosmos ❤

_Blue guy's bottom flattened wire looks like a coke can tab. Great work on everything! Thank you for sharing your hints!_

Beautiful work and you are inspiring. Thank you so much.

😂 Thank you for the great ideas and belly laughs! You're hilarious!

You are a breath of fresh air! 😊

Made me think of a neat idea for wrap around ring, but I also love your humor in this! 😏

Just want to tell you Matt, that your videos are truly inspirational! I've made a couple of pieces, from watching your videos, and they give me great ideas for what I can do with a lot of the polished stones, that I've polished. I LOVE your attitude, and your sense of humor, and just the way that you do everything freestyle! I appreciate you! I appreciate your sharing what you do with the KZfaq world! Thank you so much! I'm watching from Michigan. (get a pair of round nose pliers, you'll thank me later)! lol!

I've decided to watch these at 1.5 speed so I can watch 50% more of them. You should call yourself the Joking Jeweler. 😂😂

This is the first video I watched of yours and you are very talented!! And so much fun to watch!!! Hilarious!!!😂😂😂😂

I love learning with humor! You're a trip. Thanks

Matt I’m so happy, I have finally found my jewelry guru ❤

Wow, Matt, you are a popular guy. Just ran across your videos today and subscribed. Thank you so much for sharing your hints and your talent. I'm just starting out trying to work with wire in this way. Love that you are so giving with what you know.

Matt you are amazing, great work and gifts.

Thank you for the cool jewelry techniques and making me laugh during quarantine!

Re: "elbow grease" You're not far wrong. I smoke, repair, and restore smoking pipes, and nose oil is something we sometimes use. It's exactly what it sounds like; instead of olive oil or mineral oil, sometimes we will wipe a pipe on the greasiest part of the nose and then rub it into the wood.

Artistic hands.... They are all beautiful.

O really, like how nice and slow you go so I can follow along you make it easy thank you 😊

A worthy setting for magnificent stones!

_Beautiful work Matt, thank you for the tutorial_

my god, its dollar store jewelry making and i am fricken here for it!!!

I love the look of these! i am inspired to try this also!

15:25 I’m glad I found your video because I have all the supplies and tools to make this kind of wire wrapping but haven’t made any yet. It’s always nice to be able to learn from someone else’s mistakes. 😁 I’m not sure what to do about the “swirl tailed” one.

Matt I've watched a ton of jewlery making videos and yours is definitely in my top 3- i really like your style however i love the sheer comedy in your videos even more. You are one special son of a gun❤

Love the way these look -thank you for the finger exercise tutorial 😜

Nevermind the good info, I'm subscribing for the commentary alone! 😂

Very cool! Love your experimentation!

What great gifts! That was so nice of them (her)!

Thank you Matt for your great videos. I have gained so much information and I’m sure that it’s because you have such a good way of explaining how to do things and great ideas for jewellery projects. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 and all the best for 2020 🇦🇺 xxx

Love your videos! Can't help laughing out loud with some of the things you say. 😂
