Silversmithing from Scratch! Making a Quartz Crystal Pendant and Ring Using Scrap Silver!
Silversmithing from Scratch! Making a Quartz Crystal Pendant and Ring Using Scrap Silver!
In this one, we prepare for the holiday season by making some gifts for Alexis and my niece! We start out by taking a quartz crystal that my niece found and turn it into a necklace for her! After that, we make a “Colorwork” ring for Alexis; these rings are designs to keep yarn separated while knitting colorwork projects like hats and socks! I am extremely low on silver at the moment, so I thought it would be fun to make both of these projects using only scrap silver! I think they came out pretty well, and they were both big hits at Christmas! Let me know if you all would be interested in seeing more jewelry and silversmithing videos; It is something I do on a literal weekly basis so I’d be more than happy to show you all more! I hope you all enjoy, and I will have another one out very soon! Happy New Year!

Love that you made a necklace with the crystal that she found. You gift ideas are super. Let us know how good that ring works. You definitely put some thought into these gifts.
Yes, more silversmithing please.
You make this look so easy. And it was so beautiful and also useful. Sorry that the box of rocks I sent from az got lost. Happy new year to you and the doggies.
Theo show more silversmithing and do you recommend any book on silversmithing !
More silver smithing
That was cool!!! Do more jewelry making.
I’d love to see more silversmithing! Great thoughtful gifts in this video.
You are a man of many talents, sir. I specifically enjoyed your use of various lengths of wires…I make jewelry myself, so any of the projects with lapidary or pendant making gets me excited to watch. The silversmithing was quite enjoyable, thank you for sharing your process and tips. Your videos are always giving me ideas on how to expand my hobby and maybe someday actually selling some pieces. Can’t wait to see the next one!
The pendant turned out great Theo! Nice job and very helpful demonstration. Now I want to try and make one with some of my Topaz Mountain Topaz!
Yes more please
TRILOBITE!! So cool. I would love to see more silver smithing! Id also like some recommendations for people who are interested in getting started in the hobby too! Thanks Theo!
More! Thank you
That Haunted Ridge material had me drooling, how very kind of Largent45 to share! You are such a cool uncle Theo, and the ring is perfect for Alexis! Please let us know how much they loved them. Happy New Year to you, Alexis and your sweet pups, may your coming year be filled with joy and peace!
Did we ever get an update on how she liked the ring?
That necklace turned out pretty cool I’m sure she would love it
Groovy!
I think that it would be great if you add silversmithing videos. You have a natural talent I think you should add carving as well. I love all of your videos.
So wicked man , I do not mind the long vids.
They both turned out awesome. You will have to let us all know how they liked their gifts and if the ring works the way Alexis wants it too. Hope you had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year. Stay safe.
Awesome necklace for your niece and cool ring for Alexis! Happy New Year! Thanks for sharing!
You are quite the artisan!!!!! I enjoy watching you!!!!!!
Nice box from Lisa, the ring and pendent were great. Your winter now good time for "maker’s challenge " hint hints. Happy new year to you and Alexis and dogs of course, have a great 2023
That was very cool! Please share more silversmithing!
You are so cool to do these things. If the ring works,, market it
I loved both gifts. They were so cool. Your box of rocks was awesome. Happy New Year
Loved it, awesomeness
* Happy New Year!! Love your Things & What-nots.. My Fave was the Trilobite.. Love your use of ALL your wire..
DUDE! Love that crystal pendant! Amazing work as always!
Cheers Theo. Could you please do more videos like this. Happy new year to you & yours
Nice box of rocks. I like to see more of the jewelry making. Happy new year. Thanks for sharing.
It’s been so cool to see all the Haunted Ridge stuff from Lisa showing up on all the channels. I just tried a little experiment heat treating that material… I hope it goes well… not sure if I had the fire hot enough long enough but there’s a video coming. I’m trying to get it to turn pink… ok I’ll shut up and try to learn something. I really want to make a necklace pendant but it’s something for the future
Happy new year mister and hope you dind a LOT of beutiful rocks this year
Yes love it!
Dang! You make it look so easy!
You’r an amazingly funny artist. I enjoy watching and listening to your tutorials. Please do more. Happy New Year and hope your holidays were memorable.
So cool the knitting ring
Two or three colours at once sure can be trouble
She’s gonna love it!
Great job on the pendant too!
Theo, do you have a place you trust, where you buy your silver?
I have a few small cabs I want to have set in cuff bracelets. Would I be able to send you some stuff and some scrap silver and you make something? I do not know where I can do that near me. Of course would also pay.
