DIY T - Shirt Yarn T-shirt yarn, also known as "tarn", is a great eco-friendly product that is perfect for lots of DIY craft projects including rag rugs, scarves, or fun woven bracelets. T-shirt yarn has a nice slightly stretchy quality, and is very easy and inexpensive to make yourself. In this video, I show you how to make t - shirt yarn in a long continuous strip so you can minimize the lumps and knots that come from having to connect to strips together in your projects. http://jewelrytutorialhq.com/how-to-make-continuous-t-shirt-yarn/ ::IMPORTANT TIP:: It's best to use a t-shirt that has NO SIDE SEAMS as they are likely to come apart when you stretch out the yarn. ::CORRECTION:: I got about 27 FEET (not yards as I said accidentally) from the brown shirt and about 80 FEET from the XL men's shirt. ********************************************** TOOLS + SUPPLIES: • Rotary cutter: http://amzn.to/2cq1b6n* • Fabric scissors: http://amzn.to/2cTPlG6* ********************************************** RELATED VIDEOS: DIY T-shirt yarn bracelet: http://youtu.be/REaX0oYEIGo T-shirt yarn chain bracelet: http://youtu.be/P0CnobsPGz0 DIY Bracelets (playlist): http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9zJvpy0RzdW7AMdQb4yvpiz Upcycled Jewelry Tutorials (playlist): http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9zTDLNTS524lGZi2IjBStS9 ************************************ SUBSCRIBE: http://goo.gl/N2BbP WEBSITE: http://jewelrytutorialhq.com PINTEREST: http://pinterest.com/jewelrytutorial FACEBOOK: http://facebook.com/jewelrytutorialhq ************************************ Enjoy tons more free jewelry tutorials here: https://jewelrytutorialhq.com ********************************************** Music Credit: "Statia" by Gurdonark (feat.

Jewelry Making Quick Tip - Cord Knotting Double and Triple Knots In this quick tip video I show you how to easily make double and triple knots. This trick is featured in my Knotted Cord Bracelet tutorial video, and I got lots of comments about how useful that was, so I thought I'd share it in its own video. If you're new to cord knotting, you might think all you have to do to make a double knot is to tie one knot right over another one, but it doesn't exactly work that way. If you try it, what you'll get is just two of the same size knots right next to each other, which won't help you if you're trying to make a larger knot to prevent a bead from slipping over. Watch this quick video to see how easy cord knotting double and triple knots is! GOODIES: The cord used in this video is .8mm waxed Irish linen cord: http://etsy.me/VFl2G2 in brown OR http://amzn.to/1q1bb8d* for other colors and sizes ************************************ RELATED VIDEOS: Cord Knotting Tips + Tricks (playlist): ➤http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9ynO7E6QbMu9tax6zpGmiKr Sliding Knot Tutorial: ➤http://youtu.be/t6Qy5WdSq74 Cord Knotting Tip - How to knot against a bead: ➤http://youtu.be/I1fmn_hKQBk Cord Knotting Tip - How to prevent Fraying: ➤http://youtu.be/HaOCrEknb2M Cord Knotting Tip - How to finish waxed cord ends without glue: ➤http://youtu.be/t4TKCoAwGq0 Knotted Cord Bracelet Tutorial: ➤https://youtu.be/tBblN_xufLE DIY Bracelets (playlist): ➤http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9zJvpy0RzdW7AMdQb4yvpiz ************************************ SUBSCRIBE: http://goo.gl/N2BbP WEBSITE: http://jewelrytutorialhq.com PINTEREST: http://pinterest.com/jewelrytutorial FACEBOOK: http://facebook.com/jewelrytutorialhq ************************************ *DISCLOSURE: some product links are affiliate links meaning I may earn a small commission if you make a purchase (at NO extra cost to you).

SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS mentioned in the video can all be found here: ➤http://jewelrytutorialhq.com/all-about-jewelry-wire One of the most commonly asked questions I get from students and subscribers is, "What kind of jewelry wire should I use for wire wrapping?" If you're new to making wire wrapped jewelry, the choices out there can be overwhelming - there are SO many different types of jewelry wire that you can buy, and without knowing what many of the options mean, it's very easy to buy the wrong thing. This video will help you understand the type of wire you need! We are going to cover: - jewelry wire gauge sizes - jewelry wire materials - jewelry wire temper (wire hardness) - jewelry wire shape If you've tried wire wrapping before but the wire doesn't seem to be doing what you want it to, this video is for you! Using the wrong type of wire can certainly cause a lot of frustrations, and might be the problem if you're having an issue with any of these: - wire is too soft, won't hold its shape, finished pieces get squashed and misshapen easily - wire is very stiff, difficult to form into the shapes you want - wire breaks easily Don't forget to check out my Wire Wrapping for Beginners course if you're interested in learning wire wrapping with me! http://jewelrytutorialhq.com/courses RELATED VIDEOS: Wire Wrapping for Beginners - Jewelry Tools: ➤https://youtu.be/gvryTKVJCDw Wire Jewelry Tutorials + Techniques: ➤https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9z2Tm80SmQmhqRCkeVv9eGi Jewelry Making Techniques (Basics): ➤https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9zNrWp28GxUui5PDvmqfBzj ************************************ SUBSCRIBE: http://goo.gl/N2BbP WEBSITE: http://jewelrytutorialhq.com PINTEREST: http://pinterest.com/jewelrytutorial FACEBOOK: http://facebook.com/jewelrytutorialhq ************************************
Visit http://academy.jewelrytutorialhq.com for more information about my online jewelry making class, Wire Wrapping for Beginners! ••• Wire Wrapping for Beginners: Jewelry Making Tools ••• The most common question I get from readers and viewers is, "what kind of jewelry making tools do I need if I want to get started making wire wrapped jewelry?" Well, if you're just starting out at wire wrapping, you really only need 3 tools. In this video, I go over those 3 very important tools and show you what to look for when you're choosing your pliers and cutters! These three essential jewelry making tools are: chain nose pliers, round nose pliers, and flush cutters. Watch the video for more details! There are many levels of jewelry tools. For beginners I recommend you start with something inexpensive and work your way up when you find your tools are wearing out quickly or they are too uncomfortable to use for a long period at a time. The more expensive ones tend to last longer and be more ergonomic, but if you're not using them a lot it may not be worth it to you to splurge. Here are several options of jewelry making tools for you at various price points: ECONOMY TOOLS: Chain nose pliers: http://amzn.to/19hUwdo* Round nose pliers: http://amzn.to/1MzoO7w* Flush cutters: http://amzn.to/1Cem2oB* HIGH QUALITY TOOLS: Chain nose pliers: http://amzn.to/18kUIHt* Round nose pliers: http://amzn.to/1DhzR5I* Flush cutters: http://amzn.to/1EIIExN * PREMIUM TOOLS: Chain nose pliers: http://amzn.to/1Celr6f* Round nose pliers: http://amzn.to/1Mzpvhd* Flush cutters: http://amzn.to/1BCFHMJ* ************************************ RELATED VIDEOS: All About Jewelry Wire: ➤https://youtu.be/5P8MB5DWxa4 Wire Jewelry Making Tutorials: ➤https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9z2Tm80SmQmhqRCkeVv9eGi Jewelry Making Techniques (Basics): ➤https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5PiAoCSms9zNrWp28GxUui5PDvmqfBzj ************************************ SUBSCRIBE: http://goo.gl/N2BbP WEBSITE: http://jewelrytutorialhq.com PINTEREST: http://pinterest.com/jewelrytutorial FACEBOOK: http://facebook.com/jewelrytutorialhq ************************************ *DISCLOSURE: some product links are affiliate links meaning I may earn a small commission if you make a purchase (at NO extra cost to you).

How to Salvage Leather from an Old Purse to use for Making Jewelry http://jewelrytutorialhq.com/cut-old-purse-make-leather-for-jewelry If you like crafting or making jewelry with leather, you don't necessarily have to buy the leather for every project - you can 'make' your own leather by cutting up something you might already have at home! You can probably find an outdated old purse or two hiding in your closet, or even salvage leather from old jackets, skirts, pants, etc. These things are usually pretty easy to find at a thrift store too :) In this video, I show you how I cut up an old outdated handbag to save the leather. The leather reclaimed from this old purse is going to be used for making bracelets and some other fun projects that I'll show you in another video.
