WIRE-WRAPPING LOVELY PINK PEACH ZIRCON PEARL SILVER WIRE RING TUTORIAL
Step 1 of 6
Ready all items from the Materials and Tool list (fig. 1a).
Use a string of 18 gauge silver copper wire for the ring band (fig. 1b).
Then, slip in one pink peach zircon bead onto the wire (fig. 1c, 1d).
Step 2 of 6
Create a bead stopper by looping the wire end using a round nose pliers (fig. 2a, 2b, 2c).
Then, make a right angle bend on the looped wire end with a chain nose pliers (fig. 2d, 2e, 2f, 2g).
Step 3 of 6
Next, hammer the remaining 18 gauge silver copper wire on a base metal plate to flatten the wire (fig. 3a, 3b, 3c).
Frame the left side of the zircon bead with the flat wire (fig. 3d, 3e).
Then, take a wooden ring mandrel to shape the remaining wire into a ring (fig. 3f, 3g).
Step 4 of 6
Continue the wire flattening process until the whole ring band is flat (fig. 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d).
Then, use the excess flat wire to frame the right side of the zircon bead to complete the bead frame design (fig. 4e, 4f).
