Imbali Crafts

I'm Nadja Shields and I have been into creating art all my life, but turned my passion into business when we moved from Eswatini to the UK in 2014. I LOVE teaching people which has led me to teach my art both, online and in physical workshops. Youtube was the next logical step, so here I am :)

This channel is all about teaching wire weaving/wrapping for any skill level. Whether you're new to wire work or have been around the block a few times in this medium, I aim to have fun material and interesting things to learn for everyone.

I cover anything from simple weave patterns for beginners, to more complex wraps for those further along in their journey.
I like to explore all wire work styles and, in turn, like to teach them, meaning that on this channel, you will find a vast variety of styles and techniques like various stone settings, heady wraps, layered weave designs, soldering and metal work to name just a few.

Basically: Subscribe! you won't regret it 😊
Happy weaving!
