Wire-Wrapping Dragonfly Tutorials

October 29, 2023 by Madelynn

Step 6 of 10

Moving on, we continue with the dragonfly’s body by sliding in the oval stone to the 18-gauge wire (fig. 6a, 6b, 6c).

Secure the position of the oval stone by wrapping 2 loops at the side (fig. 6d, 6e, 6f, 6g, 6h).

The completed body frame should like this (fig. 6i, 6j).

To add a pop of texture, prepare a chain and wrap it around the body frame (fig. 7a, 7b).

Then, use a 32-gauge silver copper wire (fig. 7c) to weave the chain and body frame together as shown (fig. 7d, 7e, 7f, 7g, 7h).

Lastly, prepare a new round stone for the tail design of the dragonfly (fig. 8a).

After sliding in the round stone (fig. 8b), use the remaining 18-gauge wire to coil the tail frame (fig. 8c, 8d, 8e, 8f, 8g, 8h).
