Make Your Own Boho Hoop Earrings Using Memory Wire! - Jewelry-making Tutorial

[eclecticdesigns]

@epicturnip It originally had music, but my publisher decided to take it out. I'm sorry that you have to deal with my voice. :/

[NadinArtGlass]

amazing



[rebecca6798]

i don't have any of the players needed to make these earrings and i don't know were i can get them cheap

[eclecticdesigns]

@rebecca6798 You can purchase pliers just about anywhere. I bought a cheap set from Joann, but you can purchase them separately if you want. Try eBay, FusionBeads, Artbeads, or Fire Mountain Gems. If you want to look for them in an actual store, then try Michael's, Hobby Lobby, or even Walmart.

[c00ki3m0nst3r23]

where did u buy the wire from\

[eclecticdesigns]

@c00ki3m0nst3r23 I purchased my memory wire from Fire Mountain Gems.

[jamilah1829]

Thanks so much for this... I'm a beginner and this just gave me lots of inspiration. Thanks again!!

[eclecticdesigns]

@jamilah1829 Your so welcome!  Thanks!

[eclecticdesigns]

@alixiahelton007 If you use light weight beads, these hoop earrings will be just fine. Seed beads are made of glass which can be heavy, but seed beads are tiny and thus are light weight. If you use glass beads for the focal point, then the earrings might be on the heavier side. I would suggest using plastic beads for the focal point.

About 5-6 yrs ago I tried to learn to crochet and make jewelry but I got so frustrated with them both I stopped just as quickly as I started. And about 2 yrs ago I gave crochet another try and since then have made 15 blankets. And now I have decided to give Jewelry making another shot namely earrings because for me I like to wear earrings to match my outfits....your video makes it look so easy and I am so exicted to give it another try!!!!

[ZPZX25]

Great video! thx for the concise directions. I wear clips, so I have an idea how to do clip earrings now. I've found a lot of pierced earrings along the way & I would like to change to clip, can u do a video showing how to change different type of pierced to clips. (by the way I hate the convertors sold at retail store, they don't sit right or look authetic. thx 4 ur help on this; again awesome vid!

[eclecticdesigns]

@ZPZX25 I found some clip-on earring findings on firemountaingems (dot) com, just use the search string "clip on". Let me know if this is what you are looking for!

Great tut thanks

[millsberry2000]

if you get the ear hooks with the loop on them it is wayy easier and cheaper try it more that wasteing money

[eclecticdesigns]

@millsberry2000 Memory wire is quite cheap and it's a staple item for most beaders, so that is why I chose to do it this way.

[mitziuk]

thank you for the reply, sorry I only just see it , I have also tried making bracelets out of some memory wire I bought, it is i believe 55m but 3 i have made so far are so big on me :( any suggestions please!!! x

[eclecticdesigns]

@mitziuk I know that memory wire comes in two bracelet sizes - just search on firemountaingems (dot) com for it!

[teijasbeauty]

[vanessajordan79]

thanks this is what i needed to know

[Isabel5355]

how do you get seed beads on a smaller hoop without ruining the shape of the hoop

[eclecticdesigns]

@Isabel5355 I have never had a problem with bending the memory wire out of shape. What brand are you using and where did you purchase your memory wire?

[eclecticdesigns]

@kendra498 Memory wire is a fairly common wire used in jewelry making. Therefore, you should be able to find it at Michael's, Hobby Lobby, Walmart, Target, or anywhere else they sell craft supplies. Good luck, Kendra!

[KatsRDaBestNY]

I love all your videos, thank you so much for uploading. Very creative with easy to understand instructions.

[eclecticdesigns]

@Waffless Thank you for your nice comment!!

[BeauGorgeousNatural]

This was awesome i love these type earrings!!!!!Thanx so much for sharing!

[eclecticdesigns]

@BeauGorgeousNatural I am so happy you like them! Thank you!

[golfgranny58]

Your instructions were fairly clear, it was a little distracting to have the vocal part cut off and on like that, but better than chit chat. The worst part was those gosh awful glued on nails in that dreadful blue. Next time remember how close your fingers are going to be to the camera and get a professional manicure. Could see glue all around your nails.

[eclecticdesigns]

@golfgranny58 I am sorry that my video disappointed you. I did not have glued on nails. My hands were very dry and sore from working outside in the winter time, so I'm sorry that they were distracting you.

[raytanhoward]

@eclecticdesigns This was a great tutorial! After looking at many videos I found yours to be the most clear in both the instructions and examples. I did not find the color of your nails or the fact that you have dry skin as a distraction. It is absolutely ridiculous that someone wishes to give you grooming advice when your video was a tutorial on how to make jewelry; how rude. I would think with a name like golfgranny58 she would know better. Keep the tutorials coming!

[eclecticdesigns]

@raytanhoward Thank you for your thoughtful comment! I really appreciate it!

[ahsenerb27]

When you make the loop, how far from the end should it be done so there's is enough room to make the loop?

[eclecticdesigns]

@ahsenerb27 I would leave about an inch, or a little less. It depends on how big you want your loop!

[vampirekana1]

what type of wire?

[eclecticdesigns]

@vampirekana1 For this project, I used 2-1/4" diameter stainless steel memory wire. I bought it at Fire Mountain Gems and if you are interested, the item number is #H20-2082BS. Let me know if you have any more questions!
