Wire Wrap Cabochon in Herringbone 

I missed this four years ago! Thanks for keeping all videos available.

I am so glad I found this video cabochon wrapping tutorial. I also loved you kitten helping you and making you happy.

I just want to thank those who thumbs down amazing videos...it has given me confidence to put myself out there more and more knowing no matter how excellent and unselfishly and thoughtfully a video is produced...no matter how kind and generous a person is...no matter how much good a person is putting out to the universe...for some unknown reason, there will always be those who choose to try to stop goodness and excellence. It's great to know that negativity just is...and doesent matter a hoot as long as you are doing your thing! Von...you are so amazing!

Sorry but from now on you set the mood. We all will need a kitten intermission every video! She is adorable and so nice to hear the joy in your voice when she is acting silly! Thank you .

I love the kitty. Thank you so much for sharing her with us. The wrap is gorgeous. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.❤

Just a tip.... I take a very small drill bit and drill holes in the top of the spools. I personally try to put 4 in, spaced evenly. Then when I cut my wire, I take the end up through the closest hole and bend it over. It will hold just fine. It doesn't take much pressure to bend, so you're not ruining then ends of your wire. Hope this helps to make life easier for everyone.😊😊

You Have A Beautiful Laugh! Love Your Videos!

Wow you are the best when someone is learning how to do this

You are such a talented artist and magnificent teacher. You are my new RU-vid binge.

I know now, how to make my flat oval , round stone work with the wire , thank so much for the tutorial.

Girl Friend, I just keep learning from you. After 14 years of working with wire, I now know how to make a pretty support for the back of a cabochon. THANK YOU!

This tutorial included so many things I love - Copper, purple, pets attacking and playing, coffee and ethereal fantasy-like music. HA! Love it.

very effective design. I love your giggle.

Ohhhhhhh! Is wonderful! My english isn't good. This tutorial is more interesting for me. I am from Spain and send you my congratulations for your work. I Hope that you have understood me well. Thanks for your help!

Love the way you teach, you’re thorough but lighthearted and make it look so achievable -the kitten is the cherry on top x

OMG! One of my cats can't get enough of my workstation and always wants something. Wire, beads, canisters, cord, you name it! I gave her a canister with beads to roll around and also coiled some wire for her to bat at.

You are an excellent teacher.your patience Shows great character. When I start wire wrapping, I will be using your instructions. Thank You.

Я в восхищении! Какая Вы умница. Все так просто и доступно показываете. кажется, так все сложно, но в Ваших руках легко и понятно. Спасибо большое!

Hi Yvonne...you've come along way since I started watching you last winter...that makes two of us...I'm now soldering with a torch...I made my first ring a few weeks ago...and my 2nd, 3rd, 4th and I'm working on my 5th...they are a little bit on the crude side...very earthy...lol...but I kind of like it...I just wanted you to know I've learned a lot from you...you should be proud of yourself for helping others to learn to wire wrap and in my case...I'm okay at wire wrapping...I don't seem to like practicing it as much as I like to practice soldering...lol...I guess I like the fire...it's extra fun...lol...wire wrappings fun too...thanks to people like you that make these videos to give away their personal skills to teach others is just awesome... I'm sure a few extra perks you get for free from bead and wire companies is awesome too...how did you get them to give you beads and wire??? I could use some help with supplies also...I find it's hard to learn if you can't afford the materials to make what ever it is your making...or trying to learn to make...lol.. Anyway enough rambling I just wanted to let you know that your appreciated... Thanks Again ....

Great video. Thanks helped me. Attaching additional wire to build the design

Von your such a happy crafter. I really enjoy listening to you as well as watching your tutorials.

Your giggle brings my heart joy! I have learned so much from watching your tutorials, you're my secret weapon when I get stuck on a project! Thank you for being so giving with your knowledge. Bright blessings, Yvonne!

i've been pinning your tutorials for quite a while and finally found the motivation to actually follow this as my first one. i'm so impressed! super easy to follow and listen to, all the tools you used are clearly listed, and the way you explain things makes a lot of sense. i'm excited to try your other tutorials and finally get to making things instead of just saving ideas. thank you so much for providing these, yvonne! & please keep up the great work!

I made one of these but watching you again two years later, I missed a lot of steps. I now see where I missed up before. Beautiful job.

I love listening to your voice. It is so calming. I'm new to crafting and I am truly learning a lot from you. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent.

Once again you did a magnificent wire wrap tutorial. I can't wait to try it. Thanks again for your time and efforts to educate us.

You are an inspiration for me. Im in a wheelchair and i pass hours watching your videos...

The thumbnail image on this is beautiful bright colors and the peace is clearly visible. I think that's one reason why it has so many views

Thank you Yvonne this is such a useful demo for working with flat back cabs. Love the kitten contribution! Here's a tip from me; I use cable ties to keep my wire in check on the spool, about 8mm wide. Just wrap and fix it round the spool and thread the wire end through the opening behind the cable tie join. Don't pull the tie fully tight, as this helps to enable the tie to be moved along the spool as the wire wraps ascend or descend. Thank you so much for all you share with us.

glad i came across this one. i have dead soft 18 gauge that i was looking for a way to use it up. i bought it for something else and did not think i would be able to use it for making jewelry. i have saved this video for later. and i love your style of teaching, cat and all

So beautiful and craftifully made

You keep the mood of your videos peaceful and make them easy to understand and watch. I've watched you off and on for awhile now and thoroughly enjoy the videos. I've made the helix earrings abs have had to back off for a bit but an trying to get back in. I've even stated making my own boxes for jewelry for sales and display.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Thank you 😊 for sharing. Hi , we saved a cat in April and coronavirus hit and she had babies a few weeks later , now we have 3 cats , all fixed well 1’s a boy , next month he gets fixed or maybe not ! But they attack the wire when I’m stripping it and when I wrapping something all the time ! Been a Dog person up until now , my little fella passed 😫 , I think I’m going too enjoy the Cat’s but glad there FIXED ! ❤️🤟🏻😊

Thank you so much Yvonne for this and all your wonderful, relaxing, generous, soulful tutorials, and for sharing the beauty of your creations with us! You give me such inspiration and encouragement, I am really beginning to make progress in developing my skills so that I am starting to feel more confident and see some skill and beauty in my own practicings! I just have let you know how much I appreciate and enjoy listening to your lovely soothing, gently powerful voice. I believe your lovely voice and beautiful creations are a reflection of your genuine self. I admire you and feel very grateful to you for letting us really see you...while you so generously share your knowledge, skill, and vision as our teacher.

I feel the same about my cats (just 2) - when they get in my way, I just laugh, accommodate them and keep going. As you said, they give me so much joy - how could I get mad or shove them away? Great Bezel!

That was definately one of the best tutorials Ive seen. You not only have a tremendous amount of knowledge and terrific craftmenship, but you are a fine and considerate teacher as well. Thank you...youve inspired me to learn these new skills. Beautiful piece.

Another great tutorial, Yvonne. You are the best teacher on You Tube! I guess, for me, the most important thing about your style is your patience and laid back attitude. I am also learning the importance of using your hands as tools. The way you manipulate the wire with your hands is amazing. Anyway, all this to say "thank you" for your wonderful help.

OMG! Your cat has the same markings on the topi of her head as ours does!!!!! No LIE!!! Snoopy has a tan and grey "heart" on the top of her head, split right down the center like yours.

Great tutorial. Thank you for your artistic knowledge. Bless you.x

Thank you ☺️ I love 💕 all your Art 🤟🏻💋

Love you and your videos. You have such a sweet disposition. You’re a great teacher 👍🏼

Hi Von and Randy. Yesterday was the first time I watched you on my phone. I so very much enjoyed this particular live stream. You weren't pixililated and it was like everyone was extra happy. I love to watch your work, you are such a great person and a great teacher. HUGS

I watch your videos a lot, love your jewelry and the fact that your pieces are individual and creative. Would love to see your cat, lol.

Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing your experience and skill with us. It's people like you that help us develop a solid skill set and that's greatly appreciated. Much success to you, thank you!🙂

Bravo Yvonne... You were my first intro to wire weaving with the Dragon bracelet. I have followed you on and off since then. I diverged to strictly working with Copper. my first few pieces earned me a commission and I was off and running. I am still using Parawire and prefer their packaging and my wire storing method built around their spools. I never thought I could do a herringbone around anything but a bead... Again you have opened my horizons. deb

Love your work than you giving your time us to learn

I liked this tutorial Yvonne! Looks simply adorable your bracelet ! ...an your cat transfers good humor ; ))

Parawire is the only wire I’ll use. Thank you very much.

I thought it was one of my cats making the noises, but it was yours! :-) Love your videos and your spirit. Thank you!

You are so Brave to attempt,do,and succeed at all the things you do. Thank you so much for all your teachings. When I finally get settled in the RV I will have to give this a whirl. Xoxoxo lady bug ;D

Once again a wonderful tutorial for wire wrapping!!! This is what I keep hoping for more of this type of video, though I love them all. Thank you so much!

I have learned so much watching your videos. You're always so positive and upbeat and that makes it so easy to follow you. Oh, I have a calico cat who likes to creat havoc with my wire, too. I just wanted you to know how much you're appreciated!

Thank you once again.......such beautiful work....not to mention...wow u got me hooked on those eyes....you make it all look so easy...I am hard at work in an attempt to do up some eyes....thank you for all you do and sharing your ever so welcomed expertise.....with us.

I loved this video. You have gotten even better than the last time I watched. And I loved you that time too. Thank you so much. I have been doing wire wrapping for a couple of years and selling at craft markets. But there is always something I don’t know and your videos help so much!! Keep up the great work and sweet words of wisdom. Kathy D.

You are so talented! I’m learning a lot from you! Your voice is so soft sometimes I have a hard time hearing you...but maybe it’s me, I’m hard of hearing in one ear. I’ll be watching more! Thanks so much....

I'm getting really great ideas and inspiration from watching you do this Von. Thanks.

I was totally waiting to see if you were going to swing the pendant around over your head to do the coiling! 😂🤣😂🤣 Your work is absolutely beautiful, and I hope one day to have the skill to make this type of jewelry. ❤️❤️❤️

You are so creative

This is great. My husband has made quite a few Cabs, out of Polymer Clay, and it’s my job to create some sort of jewelry out of them. This will make my part of the work go easier. (I’ve been doing some bead embroidery and this is a shorter process. BTW, because of you I purchased some Parawire and absolutely 😍

Love all your beautiful tutorials

this is beautifullllll 😍😍 the moonstone beads add a lovely touch
