Wire-Wrapping Silver Star Flower With Beaded Seed Pendant Tutorial

Step 5 of 10

Seal the secondary wire flower frame with the same hooking method from Step 3.

• Leave a short length of wire and trim off the excess with a wire cutter (fig. 5a, 5b).
• Then, make a small loop on the trimmed wire end with a round nose pliers (fig. 5c, 5d).
• Trim the other remaining wire and hook the short wire through the first small loop (fig. 5e, 5f, 5g).
• Seal the wire frame by looping the second short wire (fig. 5h, 5i).

Checkpoint: Your secondary wire flower frame should be larger than your primary wire flower frame (fig. 5j).

Step 6 of 10

Moving forward, let’s form a beaded seed frame for your wire star flower pendant.

Take a 26-gauge silver copper wire and slip in 20 pieces of tiny silver round spacer beads (fig. 6a, 6b, 6c).

Place a Adhesive Tack-It on the wire to divide the beads into two groups (fig. 6d).

Then, slip the left end of the 26-gauge silver wire through the beads on the right side to form a loop (fig. 6e).

Tighten the loop until you have a circle of beads as shown (fig. 6f, 6g).

Step 7 of 10

Next, take a round bead and cross the 26-gauge silver copper wire through it (fig. 7a, 7b, 7c).

Pull the wire outwards until your round bead is seated on top of the silver beaded circle (fig. 7d, 7e).

Then, pull the remaining 26-gauge silver copper wire to the back side in between the round bead and beaded circle (fig. 7f, 7g, 7h).
