I have come to LOVE wire rings and the possibilities for designs are endless. I'll be going out today to find some spectacular stone beads to incorporate into my next rings! These do have natural stone beads but as yet I have not identified them... Here's a start... my firsts! First photo is a little fuzzy...

That is really awesome. How long does it take you to make one of those?

Love that style! Is that from a tut or is it your own design?

Love that style! Is that from a tut or is it your own design? It's a variation on a tutorial that I got. I have done several more since then and added a new details each time. No two are alike!

Lise, Those are good looking! I've been wrapping pendants for over 3 years, but I've not ventured to do rings yet. I need a jump start. Can you recommend a good tutorial? Lynn

Lynn Lynn, I learned this basic design from Rachel Murgatroyd of wireguild.com - there is a low monthly fee for this membership but there are some amazing tutorials on there that I found very helpful! I really think it's worth every penny. Rachel also has a very soothing teaching voice and a great teaching ability. Her videos are awesome - you can find others on youtube... just search for "wire guild".
