I've been making wrapped loops for years, and they've turned out pretty well, but I almost always run out of room. Your tip about moving the pliers just a little beyond the initial bend is golden. Thanks so much!

I just started making my own jewelry! Like only made two pairs of earrings so far. I am so happy I found this channel, I’m so excited to learn more about making my own jewelry :) THANK YOU.

I make Prayer Beads (Rosaries & Other Types), I love the finish between the beads, it more finished looking! Thank you for the tip!

Susan, you are a Pro! Thanks for the tips on wire wrapping. I have not made wraps, but I have used the looper. I have always admired people who wrap loops, and I will practice and do this. Much appreciated.

You always give us hints to change knots and etc. to make them look so finished and successful. You always come up with something that makes what we do more professional. I thank you so much for sharing!

Made my first bracelet last night doing the beaded chain using the one step looper. I think it came out pretty good.

Hi new subscriber, just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU. I have made a few elastic bracelets but wanted to try the kind that you have shown today, I have tried books but find it difficult to follow some of the instructions but you explain so well and make it so easy to follow your directions. Looking forward to other video's. I have saved this one so as I can go back again and not miss any of your new ones.

Thanks for great tutorial. Your way is slightly different than mine for making wrapped loops and make a more uniform result!

Thank you! I'm new to jewelry making, and I have an old necklace that belonged to my mom that needs to be fixed, and I wanted to use this method. I might even pick up some more beads that match nicely to make something new and me.
