THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL SOUL !!! A soothing voice, steady hands, the quality of video...a pleasure to watch..
I needed a refresher after being away from wire work for awhile. Your video was perfect.
Brilliant, very neat work. I love the way you fast forward through the boring bits rather than eek it out.
Love it! I paused the video so i could practice, then i had a crazy looking S. I unpaused the video and it was as if you knew that I needed help and answered my question! I love your videos for this reason. Tweaking the piece! Very helpful. Thank you so much.
Yes-the highest quality tutorial on this topic. Direct, detailed, with all the closeup photography to convey the HOW-TO get this done. Thank you.
I am so Amazed with your work i was up at 6:00 O' Clock this morning.. Don't worry about me i had a lot of sleep yesterday! I am so happy i found you on KZread. If i EVER Need to know how to make something You have it! I am so happy with your tutorials! Great Instructions Very easy to follow! Thank you so much!!
Thank you...this s hook works great with my copper wire and merlin's gold creations. Once again grateful for the tips. You Rock !!
You explain things so clearly! It's awesome. Much appreciated.
Well done, thank you. A joy to watch something so simple yet elegant.
Great tutorial!! I was smiling like the Cheshire Cat when you spoke about "tweaking," because I absolutely love to watch you "tweak" wire. It's amazing. Any time I get ready to make something, I actually feel butterflies. Not sure why. Maybe the perfectionist in me establishes that I must get it right the first time? I forget...it's malleable. But, you remind me when I watch your vids. It's a sweet thing. Maybe someday I won't feel so intimidated by the wire. Thanks for sharing your artistry with us.
Thank you. I can't tell you how much this video helped me. Now I'm going to your video for making knotted headpins. Can't wait !!
Jocelyn: I LOVE your videos. This is one of my favorites....thank you!
Your presentation its very easy to follow. I made my first clasp. I'm very happy. Thanks
I really love your work. You are very well spoken. Thanks I am learning a lot of new things with you. from now one I will not miss on of your tutorials.
Thank you very much, this video helps me a lot to do clasps which they fit very well with with handmade jewllery when the wires are used the most.....S-Shap hook is amazing.....I did one with viking knit bracelet.
Thanks so much for your lessons. You do excellent work and you explain it very well. I am so anxious to try the s clasp.
Thank you thank you so very much for yet another AWESOME tutorial. Anything I have made with wire I have learned from you. I have always wanted to make a clasp,and now I know how to. Again I thank you for the very clear,step by step instructions you give. I look forward to more tutorials. Also I left a message on your FACEBOOK!!!!!
Thank you. The video is easy to understand an follow and you do a magnificent job of showing us how to "tweek". That really is the height of design. I really like your s hook shape. Thank you for sharing.
Great tutorial, thank you for all the little details that I needed!
I always LOVE watching your videos....so helpful and you are always so sweet. I've watched this one, oh I say, about 50x since you've posted it.

Yes-some of fabric crafts vids talk so fast w/no pauses I'm like wha?
Thanks for sharing this video, Jocelyn! They are nicely done. I like the S-shape Hook. I made a Gold Byzantine Bracelet and I think the S-shaped hook will make it look better. Thanks for sharing your artistic knowledge. I surely appreciate your talent.
Just starting with wire working and this was very helpful. Love the S hook. Thanks for sharing.

Most Excellent- Thank you, sister ! Just what I was looking for to make some cord/ribbon necklaces- I dislike spring clasps-so fussy and sharp-hard for older people to use--this is great !!! (you could also use a skinny metal file to help smooth the ends of the wires, if needed)
Thank you for sharing. Your a great teacher and easy to follow.
Thanks. You are one of my jewelry fabrication go to.
Excellent tutorial, I just made the s chapped clasp with two attachment links, worked like a dream. Thank you so much!

Wow, thank you so much! You just made my day :D
Thanks, the directions are clear and easy to follow.
Great video ! You make it all look so easy ! Thank you for sharing.
You have lovely habits. When you cut your wire off the spool, although you do not always explain to us why you do this, you use the flush side of the cutter and cut it from the spool, and then you immediately go to the end that began the spool and do another flush cut. With each successive tutorial from you, we are learning good habits from you. Thank you.
Your clasps are just gorgeous! I'm really needing to get me some thicker wire to make a few of these. I am not happy with the bought clasps I got at all. Thanks again for the awesome tutorial!
Awsome video all tips n tricks are very much appreciated in my wire wrapping venture growing a lot with help from many thank U soon much

Thanks so much, George! Greetings from across "the pond" ^_^ I could try and do an English accent, but I don't think anyone would thank me, haha!
Beautiful! ❤
I love it when you "tweek" what you are making. You let me know that I don't have to pull my hair out if my loop is a little crooked.

I'm so glad! I hate when people set unrealistic standards that discourage beginners. In fact, some of my favorite designs have come from pieces that I "messed up" so bad I had to change the whole design idea, haha
thank you for making your videos, you make a very good teacher, i hope i can do as well as you do
Thank you for your tutorial.
Thank you so much for all the helpful videos! It is really useful for beginners like myself =D

Thank You Jocelyn for your wonderful tutorial on making clasps do you have a tutorial on making toggle clasp
ive never thought of making these, I recently bought something similar, wore the necklace for a short time and it worked its way indone. I was disappointed as Ive had toggle clasps come undone but thought the s clasp would stay attached.
well done and very pretty! You give me hope that I can do this also.
