Wire-Wrapping Gleaming Filigree Butterfly Statement Pendant Tutorial

Step 10 of 15

Trace the right wing filigree design with a 22 gauge copper wire, and ready one piece of yellow round diamond (fig. 10a).

(Tips: You can swap it to your preferred gemstone.)

Coil the filigree design onto the top right wing frame using a 26 gauge copper wire (fig. 10b, 10c, 10d).

At the top right frame, make a spiral seat for the yellow round diamond and frame the front with the loose 22 gauge wire (fig. 10e, 10f, 10g, 10h, 10i).

On the back side, combine the wing and head frames by coiling the remaining 26 gauge copper wire (fig. 10j, 10k, 10l, 10m).

Step 11 of 15

After that, let’s add a big flower on the bottom right wing frame with pearl beads, golden spacer bead and silver mini beads (fig. 11a, 11b).

Then, take a 26 gauge copper wire to string up the beads (fig. 11c).

For the top petals, slide two pearl beads, and make one half wrap in the anti-clockwise direction on the right bead (fig. 11d, 11e, 11f).

Make a coil at the center to separate the beads (fig. 11g, 11h).

On the left bead, wrap the loose wire in the clockwise direction (fig. 11i, 11j).

Step 12 of 15

For the flower seed, slide one golden spacer bead onto the right loose wire and wrap it (fig. 12a, 12b).

Similarly, add two more pearl beads and wrap them to finish the flower design (fig. 12c, 12d, 12e, 12f).

Make a wire spiral at the back side of the last flower bead to work harden the wire (fig. 12g).
