Loved the simple format!

Ashley

This format was great. It helped make the project seem achievable. Loved the music as the transitions into the next parts. Looking forward to the next one I'll be watching in a few minutes, lol. I'm behind but I truly love sitting down and binge watching episodes and rewatching the older ones. Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. 💜🍁🎃

You have a wonderful way of brightening my thought process... Thank you for the inspiration and sharing your boundless creativity. Just glisteningly beautiful.

Jennifer

I love love love this!

Jess Meister

That is a fantastic idea! 🕸️🕷️

This ornament is so nice! My 4 year old son loves spiders and would go crazy for this ornament. ☺️🕸️🕷️🤎 I like the mini episode video format as well.

Beautiful projects as usual! Soldering takes practice. Like in her video, you heat the surface of your project, not your solder wire. Then, you lightly press your solder wire because you don't want bubbles. That's where the art of soldering comes in, no bubbles. Practice a few times to get the hang of it. There are also several thicknesses of the wire. Flux is also a whole thing. Don't touch flux with your fingers, it can irritate the skin. Watch videos on how to use flux.

Thank you for this - it looks amazing. Some additional info: gauge 28 jewellery wire is 0.3mm wire in EU. This would be quite striking in gauge 20 (0.8mm) wire and could be wire weaved instead of soldered (as it will hold the shape on its own). Like Christine, when buying supplies you also want to use jewellery wire not lace wire (that's a different gauge which is thinner). Thank you!

Beautiful! Thank you ❤️

Dear Christine, I love so much this craft ! Both simple and very elegant at the time ! Prefect for a very gothic Christmas !

Holly

Oh Christine, you’re such a tiny step away from stained glass! I dream of doing up a window in that old house. You totally could.

Hetty La Rock

Id love to make this much larger and place in the corner of a mirror, I think that would look fabulous. Feeling inspired.

Allison

Will a web template be offered?

Elizabeth Hammond Miniatura

Very beautiful! I have a soldering iron that I have never used. This is a perfect project for it! Thank you! Merry Creepy Christmas!

Tori

Ooh I love this kind of project, would definitely like to see more! And your tree looks magnificent as always.

Linda

There is a

So elegant ✨️ 😍

Racheal Jones

This turned out so glittery and shiny on the tree. I love how the golden spider contrasts wiht the red web. Good job! I think adding a few simpler projects (1 or 2) throughout the year might be nice.

Jennifer Edwards

Great Project. This is exactly the type of projects I love. This is back to some of the Old School projects that made me a fan

Dee

I am in love with this project! Now I see I need a saudering kit! With some practice, I think a great tool to have for many more wire projects. Thank you for starting me with new tools for my hobby room!

Judy

I love this! It’s so beautiful and I love that I can actually make this myself! I plan to make some for my own tree! Thank you!

Heather Robinson

This was beautiful! I really enjoy the crafts that seem simple enough for the casual crafter to be able to tackle!

Angela Pearson

Such a fun episode! Your ornament is the perfect holiday craft to fit in. I've always liked these smaller craft episodes/ideas, and they make a lot of sense for months when you have so many other obligations like your shoe collaboration launch!

Christine have you ever made a jeweled spider for your Christmas tree? Folk lore story long ago about a woman living alone with her small children she brings an evergreen tree into the house they have no decorations for. The next morning they awake to a beautiful shimmering tree~ of spider webs. It is said that you will have good luck if you have a beaded spider in your tree. They are easy to make.

Foxley Andrews

Potential stained glass projects unlocked??!

Sonja Tompkins

Love the simpler format projects. It would be great to have a mix. I love seeing the big projects that I will most likely never tackle and the simpler ones that I could attempt. Thanks!

Victoria Gates

I love this 🕸️ I will definitely try making my own 🙂 soldering kit on my Christmas list 😇

J.A. Morton

Adding beginner crafts would be great, especially if it gives us another new episode in a month! Also, would you consider a Christmas decorated home tour?

Tonya Moore

Thank you so much for this! I should be able to do this one.

David wyatt

Love it, you are a jeweller too.

Deborah Wiltshire Whaley

Thank you Christine this will be fun!

wing cat

Love it! Thank you for having a “beginners” craft episode. This simpler but amazing episodes are very welcome! 🤗 I think I can actually do this! 🥰

Stefanie LaZerte

These are great! This caliber of project remind me of the spider ornaments which we loved making. I love the idea of having simpler projects mixed in occasionally. Thank you!

Emily Martin

So exciting! My family and I make buckeyes for Christmas every year. Can't wait for Sunday.

Morgan Gauthier

I love it😍😍

Rebecca Shipman

😍🕸️🕷️🕸️😍

Traci Harkins

…. I need a better paying job. I watch these videos and think not only am I capable of trying it but also affording all the supplies.. but this is gorgeous and I am not a fan of spiders. Gives me an idea of making a spiderweb crown.

Fiona O'Malley

I adore this type of craft, something we can follow and create ourselves. 🕷

Mina Murray

Buckeyes are so good! Can't wait for the Christine twist! Also, we're having a holiday gathering that evening so it's a perfect reason to make and serve them.
