loom today we'll be making some fun earrings from the gorgeous Baltic Birch

designer series earring collection make sure to subscribe to this Channel

also find me on my own YouTube channel Trisha's pink poodle jewelry Studio please head over there and subscribe to

my channel as well alright guys so let's get started here hi Maria let's welcome

some folks in Maria is here Patricia is here

two of us well share it out guys always make sure and like and share our videos on

Facebook YouTube it helps immensely to get the word out to other folks makes a

big difference for us hi Amber and of course as always we have our wonderful Miss Joan in the background

I hope that everything is I think everything's in order here so like I

said guys today we're going to be using the designer series um earring collection the Baltic Birch

um oh thank you Maria how am I feeling um actually just to have a little aside

here I'll kind of give you an update the doctor did give me some medication that has helped me it's not 100 but it has

made a difference for me so I can at least function um I have my last knee injection today

and it was a pretty rough experience but now the knee feels fine so all good

thank you so much for asking though so we're going to make some fun earrings today and the exciting part is

we're going to be off Saloon today guys we're not using the loom so we thought okay let's try some stuff outside the

box here and work with some wire today and just make some fun earrings and try

some different techniques so I'm going to turn my camera down here and I'll

show you some examples that I made hi Zach welcome to everyone coming in and also

on the replays and I'm just going to turn my camera around here

just take some moment guys foreign

here we are let me just turn my other light down here and we'll be ready to roll

okay now we're in business all right guys so as I said we're gonna make some

really fun earrings today get this lighting the way I want it

there we go okay foreign these are some examples of the ones that

I have come up with today this is uh crowns

uh set that I made I actually glued some flat backs on that and used some fire

polish so that one's really fun

I think the flat backs just make it and the crown I'm all about that

and then we have this one this is the Lotus make sure the light is catching it

good here for you and I also did flat backs on it

if you can see those there we go the lights a little better

there is the Lotus with some different green color of

flat backs and I just wire wrapped some fire polish on that one

and these are the two I'm thinking we're gonna do today guys this is a heart that

I did and I wire wrap the seed beads 60 seed

beads onto it and cover the back up so it focuses better there we go and use

some fire polish at the bottom and some just gold spacers

and then on this one this is almost like a Cha-Cha earring if

you know what a Cha-Cha necklace is this is the leaf and I've put the

um jump rings on it with seed beads on it so when you move around it kind of cha-chas around for you so

so let's look at the other items that are actually in this set this is a I

mean Jules knocked it out of the park on this one guys these are some really really cool icons

these ones are the ones over here that I have used their mates

um this is of course the Lotus the crown the heart and the leaf which we'll be

working with today and we also have some really fun flowers with some holes on the bottom so

you can really think outside the box on those some feathers

Sun of course this is cool this is the wings with the

sword and shield I really like that one and of course the gorgeous butterflies

so I'm going to move these out of the way here so we can get started

uh oh Dingle dangles down or starting already

okay guys so first I think I'm going to show you how to do the heart because I think that one might take the longest so

we'll make sure and get that one in I'm gonna get my bigger wire out of that one

okay so here is our heart so I'm going to be working on we're

going to start out by coloring our pieces this is always optional

to do you can use stain you can use nothing

I did not end up gluing my fingers to my nose but that would have been probably something I would do for sure my friend

one nice thing if you're going to put flat backs on

Joan does the lighting look okay it looks kind of dark to me or is it okay it's okay all right

is get one of these wax tip pens these are the greatest thing to work

with flat backs because you have a little end here that you can kind of adjust say if you put a stone on you can

adjust it with but this helps because you can just touch the stone and then place it makes a big difference but

we'll get into that a little later so now we are going to color our

piece and I I know we've done this before there is actually a video in the

school in Joseph's School um that has the information on some different

techniques to use to color but I simply am going to use my alcohol inks here guys

and I'm just going to use the fine tip on it and I decided to do like a burgundy and

black you can't really see it unless you look really close to it but I I still

wanted to have that underneath and then also I colored the back because I think that makes it look really nice and

finished so I'm just gonna go around the edges of this and you can see we have the wood inlay between these two

um parts that are uh lifted up so I don't

color in the wood inlay for many reasons because first off it's very hard to color but also because it's very

beautiful and I don't want to remove that beautiful inlay on that so I just

simply take my alcohol inks and just kind of color along it gives you a nice Vivid

color and you can see here how it just sort of goes into the wood it just sort

of travels a little bit when you do it so be careful and just use your fine tips on them so you can place it exactly

where you want it okay and then I'm just going to do this

bottom part here and then why I have this pen out I'm going to put my cap back on this end and I'm going to get my

broad tip and I'm going to color the other end

the other side excuse me that's not an end and I'm just going to use my broad tip and just give some quick Strokes on that

and it just really gorgeously colors this Baltic merch all right and then I

just did the black in the middle and again I'm going to use my fine tip here

and we're just going to go around just let the pen do the work for you

to me I feel like this is what I end up going to a lot of the times now for

coloring I do love my patina paints they also do a gorgeous job especially if I'm

looking for like a boho look I always go with the vertebrate color and just sort

of do like a worn look and that also looks really cool so that is

are heart colored okay so now what we're going to do we're going to get out some

24 gauge artistic wire this particular one let's see is in the color tarnish

resistant brass I need some wire Tamers for my

for my wire by the looks of it but I'm just gonna take off like a 12 inch piece

cut off about a 12 inch piece all right and then

I'm gonna take this wire and sort of just straighten it out with my hands just kind of get the Kinks out of it you

can also use one of these these are your wire straighteners your nylon jaw pliers

they also work well so I'm going to take my little 6-0 beads

these are absolutely gorgeous these are at jewelloom.com and this particular color is inside

color light topaz slash pink line and I just love these I think they're gorgeous

and I'm just going to take some of those out lay them on my mat here

and I'm going to start by taking the end of my 24 gauge wire and up by the top Loop here I'm going to

lay the wire flat on the heart and I'm going to press down with my thumb to hold that there okay

then I'm going to take my finger and I'm going to push this wire

down through the middle of my heart okay I know it's hard to see

with my fingers in the way but that's what we're doing and the reason I leave this end here

guys is because it's so much easier to wire wrap

when you leave a little towel we can always go back and cut that off no problem

but just that gives you something to hold on to so I'm just gonna go around here once and I'm keeping that nice and

snug and laying that down right beside the other wire and pushing it through the middle again

can anyone remember why we push it through the center rather than taking the end and feeding

it through well if you can't that's okay the reason we do that is because it will Kink much

easier if you push this end down through and then try to lead your wire you want to just take it lay it across and push

into it so it goes through that way so now that we've got two wraps on there oops okay I'm going to grab one of my

6-0 beads foreign

and I'm just going to slide that down on my wire and I want to lay that

in place on top of my heart just like that then what I'm gonna do is just push that

wire down through the center again and if you hear a little pause little nails that's Kaylee in here with me today

okay so now that wire is wrapped right next to the other one with the seed bead

on it okay hope that makes sense and now I'm just going to go around one time just

the wire again just to kind of make sure everything's hooked and mounted the way I want it so let me turn this around so

you can see okay so we have one seed bead on now

what we're going to do is we did a wrap in between so now we're gonna pick up another seed bead you could use any size

of seed bead that you like to do this with I just love this color of these six O's

so that's what I decided to use these wires up here

I think it really just makes a big impact on the piece

I can lay this here so you can see it guys all right

so again we're going to lay our seed bead down on top of that frame push through the center

Kaylee spelling introduction to Kaylee spelling it is k-a-e-l-i

actually so now we have our our second one wrapped on there I'm going to take

and push my wire through again and wrap one without a bead

and we're just going to work our way around doing that pick up another 6-0

and lay it across there and the wire gets crazy sometimes so you'll see it like flip beads and all that that's just

unfortunately that's kind of reality when you're working with wire it grabs onto everything you're working with

so again laying that in there push through the middle wrap around

push through the middle and this is what we have so far okay

so again pick up another 6-0

I will show you guys at the end Kaylee if she is still in here she gets

ants in her pants sometimes um but I want to make sure and get our projects done before we do that so I'm

just doing the same thing 6-0 wrap around

another 6-0 my board's sliding around on me today for some reason

getting a little bit too overzealous I guess okay

and it's an easy pattern just to do quickly thank you Maria

thank you for saying that's looking good so I'm gonna pick up another I did my

wrap there between I'm gonna pick up a seed bead after I

chase it around a little bit I guess um

there we go and I'm just gonna go ahead and go a

little faster now guys because I'm sure you have the basic technique down because I do want to show you how to put

the loop on the bottom and also how to um end your piece too

okay so I'm just gonna get down to business here now if you run out of wire you can you

can always put more wire on that's not a problem you can

um just wrap it in and continue on that's never an issue

so if you wanted to cut maybe 18 inches you could I cut 12 because it's easier

with the camera to have a little bit shorter of a piece to work with okay here's our progress

would you please repeat the bead color sure the Beet color is inside color

light topaz pink lined I don't know if it'll focus on that for you guys it

likes to be there you go okay

very pretty

and then one more seed bead

and now we're at the bottom so what I'm going to do at the bottom here

you can see where we are sitting okay I want to do a little Loop there because I

want to be able to hook on my uh for lack of a better term Dingle dangles

on the bottom so what I'm going to do is as this wires I brought that to the

center and I'm straightening that wire out I'm gonna take

my round nose pliers have them up there and I'm just going to do a wrapped Loop

here on the bottom so you see how that wire is coming up I'm just going to grab that with my round nose pliers bend it

sideways rotate my pliers up and over again horizontally and then you can kind

of Choke up on it to get the loop where you want it to be sitting so it's not real low or real big

and I'm just kind of adjusting that sorry okay it's kind of adjusting that the way I

want it because I don't want a great big loop so

then I drop my brown nose and pick up my tweezer pliers because they are my

absolute favorite I need to move my tools over here I don't I guess and then just wrap that around

the base of the loop okay and once you do that a couple times you've got your Loop there

okay and then we're just going to continue wrapping around

all right so I'm just pushing that back through the center and continue on all right so that's a

little bigger than I wanted it to be but you get the idea it can show you a little better there

all right so we're getting we're running low on wire here so I'm just going to let that

there and this is good because then I can show you how to put on another piece

so I'm going to just take another piece of wire here

nothing too crazy because I don't want to bang the camera I'm going to move these tools over here

so I could put in my arm in the shot okay so now I have another piece of 24

gauge look at that straightened out with my hands where I want it I'm just going to

leave that kind of hanging there for now we'll go back later and we'll finish all the ends off again I'm just going to lay

my wire in there just like we did I'm leaving a little end on it and we're

just going to act like we're just starting over okay so I'm going to go around you'll have a

couple loops where you um start another piece of wire but that's okay nobody's

really going to notice once you get your um seed beads wrapped on there

okay and just pick up a

and just continue on okay easy enough right

so lay that on my frame put that in place the first one can be a little

iffy when you're doing it uh when you're putting another piece on but once you

get it in place you got it and there we go

we're just going to continue up the side here

you can't see beads

okay somebody's got ants in her pants tonight

I guess they got them Bubba there you go

okay I guess just like Marlon Brando snores Kaylee pieces

it's not like being too far away from her mama though

just have a few more to do here

this is one of those things that look a little more difficult than they actually

are okay so it'll really look like you spent

hours and hours putting those beads on that frame

okay almost there

give me a little bit of a fight on that one

okay now you can use of course the 24 gauge

like I'm using but 22 and 26 will work for this 22 would be a little more

difficult if you're not like a seasoned wire wrapper it might hurt your fingers a little but

um for me I feel like I have like fingers of Steel from wire wrapping so

much so it's fine for me but 24 is like a nice middle ground but if

you don't have that on hand you can always like I said use a 22 or the 26.

let's go almost there

um short nails do work out much better for me with jewelry making

um I can get a little longer than this and it'll work but in general I like to

have the shorter Downs

almost there I'm sorry I keep popping back there but it's just where my

where my wire wrapping comfort zone is comfort zone I guess

Jones on my mind

it's kind of just like sewing to a degree

just how you keep stitching around or stitching onto something

kind of the same concept I'll pick up one more seed bead and see I think that might be our last one here

yes

okay so I just put on my last seed bead so I'm going to give it one more wrap around here at the top

just to make sure everything is secured

you can even do it a couple times two reps there and then make sure you

don't wrap around where that hole is because you won't be able to get your piece your jump Rings into there

foreign as far as um Gloria has a question she's

saying uh hi can any type of color tools be used to paint the birch wood

Joan has actually done a great video on that for us on the jewel loon Channel

um she recommends and she had recommended to us not to use

um water-based anything on them okay you can use stain you can use alcohol ink

but anything that's water-based you want to avoid because it may make your wood

work okay that's the best piece of advice I can give you but you can use anything

even colored pencils work if you have those on hand you don't have to have anything fancy to

to color them I just like to color in coloring books

you know the adult coloring books and so I have the alcohol inks on hand okay so

I wrapped around two times on either side of our hole for our jump ring now

we're just going to snip our wires and I just take my Flush Cutters here

and just snip off my wire about halfway through it

and each one of those do these both at the top here and then I just take my

tweezer no nose pliers which I absolutely love got me hooked on these

and just push those ends down just like we do when we're using wire

on anything because you don't want that to catch on someone's clothes that would not be

a good thing for you okay so I'm just pushing it down checking it making sure

running my thumb over it to make sure it's not grabbing and once I have it to that point I can

move on to my next wires so I'm going to do the same thing with these two wires

just going to trim those about halfway through

okay half when I say halfway through if that doesn't make sense I apologize but I'm

saying about halfway through the wood piece okay not half of the wire or anything like that I'm saying halfway

through the wood piece okay and then just stamp that one and push

those down so now the hard part is done on this particular earring

once we get these pushed down

I'm going to cut that one just a smooth shorter

foreign

so there is our heart so now all we have to do is hook in some

jump rings and our ear wire and then but first we're going to make our

little head pins there with our beads on these are gorgeous I cannot stress this

enough fire polish okay guys these are absolutely stunning I'm hoping

that this will focus here but look at those

it's just yummy just show me so all I did is I took some

of this gorgeous fire polish and I got three of the six millimeters out and

then I got three of the four millimeter this is just in a real pretty

almost midnight burgundy color I don't even know how to describe it better but

and then I'm actually going to use one seed bead we're going to need some head pins

and I'm going to show you the easy way to do it with your one step Looper if you have

one of those if you don't a simple Loop would suffice just check in there to make sure I didn't use any head pins on

it telling you wrong okay

I mean any jump ring someone had pins or pizza Trisha so I'm going to get a few head pins out

here and we're just going to build we're going to have three head pins on the bottom these are just the regular

old head pens used what you have in your stash what you like to use and then I just have some

um five millimeter gold Daisy spacers simple enough so for the center one I made it a bit

longer than the other two I just thought that it looked better that way you can

do it however you like I'm just going to get them to lay here correctly so you can see that

um but I did like just a little bit more length on that Center one so I'm going

to just put on a seed bead we'll just build our head pins first and

a four millimeter fire polish a

Daisy spacer and a six millimeter fire polish so that's

the one for the center and then on the others it's just as simple as a fire polish

Daisy spacer and a four millimeter for our polish

and the same on this one so these come together really quick like I said your work is mainly done on

this when you get that all wire wrapped so you're going to put a daisy spacer

and a four millimeter fire polish on okay

and push that back out of the way now if you have a one-step Looper I highly

recommend using it for this if you don't like I said you can simply Loop it or you can do uh wire wrap loops

but as with the one step Looper it makes it pretty easy because you can just feed your head pin in

and then what I like to do guys is just when I have my crystal pushed against there I back it off just maybe a couple

millimeters so I don't crack my fire polish or my crystals and then I just

squeeze because as this part goes up here on this tool it can press against

your uh crystals or your fire polish and really take a chunk out of that you

don't want to do that we don't want to destroy our beads that's for sure so I'm just going to do

that two more times

okay and then our third

headband and then just back it off just a smidge

like I said all right so now I'm just going to hook

those into my Loops very simply or into my Loop that I made on the

bottom of the earring I'm just going to open that up and this is one side

and then hook that on just like so

our Center one

and closed there had been looped

and then one more

yes beads are definitely precious Patricia you must be good lady you have my mom's

name my mom is Patricia

okay so that's just as simple as that guys all right like could you delay straight

that'll be helpful here there we go okay just as simple as that and then all

I did simply at the top here is I just put on a couple jump Rings you would not have to put the second one on if you

just turn the loop on your uh ear wires I don't know if anyone's done that but

you can actually rotate the loops on your ear wires most of them and then you

don't have to put two jump Rings If you happen to have a hole in the wrong direction okay so let

me grab put your brains

so I just used a larger one in a smaller one see

let's get one of these I believe yep and then just

a little bit let's do that one

that'll work and then we're just going to attach this

with your um chain nose pliers or your tweezer pliers or whatever we have that you use and like

we're just going to put that jump ring through the top of that hole and these are so nice because they're

already pre-drilled with the holes that you need to make them into earrings

absolutely gorgeous and then

open this one up

okay and all we're doing by in this second

jump ring is avoiding turning the loop on our your wire but again like I said

you can certainly do that and then I do have an earwear up here

I'd like to use for my piece

and then I'm just going to put on our earpard

so there is one finished set for you guys let me move my

Mouse before I end up sending myself elsewhere [Music]

I end up clicking on everything with my mouse and then it's not great but here

is our finished one this is the one that we made today and then this was the example

so I thought they really came out nice they're very elevated and

the Bird Space just really made it um simple to be able to do that with

so the next one I think we're gonna do

is this little leaf Cha-Cha and like I said very simple very very simple you just

need two different colors of seed beads or whatever variety you'd like

I have here the colors are transparent rainbow frosted teal

you need a focus okay

that likes to do that sometimes unfortunately there we go there we go

and then this one is opaque turquoise this is one of my favorites

okay and then all you need are some jump rings and

I think these are eight millimeter I'm pretty sure these are I'm sorry I

actually measured them with my caliber ahead of time but I forgot to do that

um but I just have I have four for one side and four for the other side

and all you have to do is just string your

um seed beads onto your jump Rings okay just that simple and whatever order you

like and then I have a big loop at the top and we're going to do the same thing for

that loop we're going to string on some seed beads to that one okay so let me

dig out one of those bigger Loops here because I know I'm gonna need it

and just set that to the side and

see all right so we're ready to roll on that

product let me get that down here so you can kind of look at it as we go here again

another very simple project you just take your jump ring

open it up and I put five seed beads on each Loop that seemed to be the simplest

way to do it so at the top here I started with um

the teal on the end and the three or excuse me the turquoise on the ends and the teal in the middle

but that's just the design I did and then did every other but again you know

make it your own I'll be anxious to see what you all come up with for me this is

um the time consuming part on this one for me is getting the seed beads onto

the loops because my hands bounce around a lot just because of my health situation so sometimes I'm just like

come on get in there grid on that one [Music] so but if you have a steady hand it'll

go much quicker for you so once I got my five seed beads on

there just like that I'm just gonna take my leaf that we still need to cover and

look at you there okay so we'll just do it just as is for now because you saw me

color the other one and you know how to do that so we're just going to simply just

closer jump ring okay

and let me just make sure as you're doing it be careful because your seed beads are going to try to slip off one

end or the other um so just be careful as you're putting it on

that you're getting your um Loop closed correctly okay

I'm just adjusting this putting it where I want it making sure these are close together

and there you go okay so this is gonna bug me so I'm just

gonna color this really quick guys because I have my markers are right here

so easy enough so I'm starting at the top with an easy

turquoise just like so and these don't have to take long to

color you do them really quick and I find if I use three colors two to three

colors on each one it really um looks nice it gives it a little bit of depth okay

just a couple more pointers on that okay

and then Mr green color in the bottom

simple as that and then I'm just going to quickly do you can do that in a solid color if you

like just to keep it simple I always like to color them if I color the front

though because then you're going to have a uniform look just

um [Music]

and then our green so now I can proceed without my ADD kicking in

okay so there is our one loop on that and we're just gonna work along here

doing our our jump Rings okay so just doing

turquoise

and the teal and the turquoise

thank you and then just hook on the other side

and just as you go down it just starts giving you that really cute

Cha-Cha look

okay

I don't know if you guys can hear this but Kaylee's are liking my

arm the whole time I'm trying to do this now puppies are distracting

okay

and then close that one let's do one more I think that's oh we're gonna have time

for here today and I just want to touch on the other designs that I did here to make sure you

know the basics of those I don't think I have to do all of these these jump rings with I think you kind

of will get the concept just by these few that I'm doing it's just sliding your seed beads onto

your jump Rings again this is one of those ones that look a little harder than they are

and that's what I love it always um makes me happy when I can make

things that look difficult but really are not as time consuming and as difficult as they seem to be able to

appear I'm just gonna make sure I have this

all right and let's do one more

oops seems like it's worse when I think about

it you know when I think about blend them on versus

just doing it

and you can do definitely do more than two colors of beads on this one guys if the seed beads I mean the sky's the

limit on that okay and then on this side

okay so that's the basic concept on the leaf earring this is what a finished one

will look like just a little noise maker when you're

moving around there and I just took our larger jump ring and I did exactly the

same thing I put put seed beads on it before I hooked it through the hole

and I'm just going to verify here for sure how many I put on this one I did five as well

you know again whatever makes you happy and I'm just gonna put these beads on

okay and then I'm just gonna hook it through the top of this Loop that's

already provided and close that

and again this is a situation I put a second jump ring but again you can just turn the loop on your earring finding

all right and then just attach your wire

simple as that let me look and see what your wire I actually made these ear wires

um which I love copper ear wires and sink

they really pop on pieces

open this up we already have the loop in there

and then we're just going to hook it into that little Loop that we just put on the top

as simple as that okay

so it looks like we have a few minutes to talk about the other earrings they're very very simple as well

this is our Crown earring

and again this one is colored with alcohol inks I applied the um swarovskis

I did use this super glue gel

glue if you have flat packs that don't have foil on the back of them don't use

the super glue gel use the E6000 on them because it'll

um it'll off gas and it'll make your crystals cloudy so that's just a little

tip and then we just did the dangles on the bottom the same way as we did on our

heart same concept except for we separated them out I did hook jump rings

in first but then put the head pins right into those and it just made it

super cool and then on our Lotus again I colored alcohol inks

and then I applied um some flat backs to that I used two

pieces of four millimeter fire polish on this and once one Daisy spacer M1

um I guess that's like a pyramid design or whatever spacer you use whatever you

like and I just went down over once I went up got my beads on made my wrap

loop I just took the wire as I went down and wrapped it down over top of the

beads just to kind of give it a neat look and then I just put another one of my handmade ear wires on it so just as

simple as that guys so I'm going to turn my camera back around here

and see if we have any questions

here we are I gotta put my my light back operator looks as look as

good you know so I hope you enjoyed that I mean it was kind of

different because we didn't use our Loom um but next week we will be back to the

loom I'm gonna be um actually doing some a project with the Earth Tone bead kit that Jules

offers her bead in the bag kit that she offers on joelloom.com uh really really

pretty kit um it's my opinion I think it's been underrated we did do some videos way

back when we first started uh the bead in the bag where we made the bracelet and and I'll have that to show you but

I'm thinking for next week we're gonna think outside the bracelet box and see what we can come up with with

that gorgeous kit because there's a lot of um

a variety that you can do with the beads provided you know you're waiting on

yours now Patricia and I see that someone had a question here that I've been notified via text about

Patricia was asking if you have a pattern for your bracelet tonight I said I'd ask you okay

um this was Amber actually by the way but no this bracelet if this is the one

you're talking about this is actually you can buy these at

um Hobby Lobby already made up like this I just put a clasp on it

is about there's um a line there called timeline and that's my

favorite it has like that vintagey looking um stuff and that is where I got that so

there's no pattern just it's just a metal it's metal links already made up so sorry so guys again I

hope you enjoyed the projects this week and we will see you next week bye guys

okay
