Making Wire Rings: How I made a Cocktail Ring with a Braided Band

http://makewirerings.blogspot.com/2012/09/how-i-made-cocktail-ring-with-braided.html

September 7, 2012. How I made a Cocktail Ring with a Braided Band. I didn't set out to make a cocktail ring - it just happened. One of those ideas that just got bigger than I ever expected. I made this ring for a swap with one of the online jewelry groups I belong to. The theme was 'Back to School'. It was a tough theme, but I decided it reminded me of the turn of seasons from Summer to Fall. Now, I have a beautiful ring band with lots of spiky ends sticking out and pearl in the center!

Making Wire Rings: March 2014

http://makewirerings.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

March 2, 2014. Perfect for Valentine's Day or anytime you want to show some love. This wire heart ring is very easy to make and doesn't require too many tools. There is no soldering required, just wire wrapping. You can find the free step by step heart ring tutorial. There are two alternatives for securing the end piece of wire. It can be flattened against the ring band (or shank) or it can be wrapped around the band. Adding a dangle from the point of the heart would also be a nice addition.

Making Wire Rings: Braided Wire Band

April 25, 2012. Here is the ring as part of a stack. The other style is the simple ring I previously made, but with a heavier gauge wire. I think it is 20g which is much thicker than I usually use. I also added some small silver beads on the side. Click on the pictures to enlarge them. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Herringbone Weave Gemstone Ring.

http://makewirerings.blogspot.com/2013/07/free-rosette-swirl-wire-ring-tutorial.html

July 3, 2013. Free Rosette Swirl Wire Ring Tutorial. I love this ring! It is so simple to make, but looks so great on! The free tutorial is by McFarland Designs. And once you've made one, you will be hooked! The author of the tutorial calls this a Rosette Ring. In order for it to come out as a Rosette, you should keep your wires coiled to the center and don't worry if they overlap a little. In my first ring, the copper rosette above, I let the wires overlap and it came out looking more like a rose. Silve...

Making Wire Rings: March 2012

http://makewirerings.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html

March 25, 2012. This is one of the simplest ring designs that I make. I use whatever size wire fits in the beads best. I thread the beads on the wire and wrap it around the ring mandrel twice. Then I bend the wire a little to keep the beads in place and remove it from the mandrel. This is the most difficult part - keeping the beads snug and keeping the wire ring from getting larger. Then I wrap the wire tails around the ring wires a few times and snip the ends. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Making Wire Rings: February 2012

http://makewirerings.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

February 6, 2012. Wire Basics: Gauge / Diameter. Before you can buy your wire to make rings, you'll need to know a little bit about wire gauge. The gauge is the diameter of the wire. Typical wire gauges used in jewelry making range from 32 gauge (abbreviated g) to 10 gauge. The higher the gauge, the thinner the wire will be. It would be difficult to make a wire ring with anything thinner than 26 gauge. Let me know what size wire you typically use for rings. I love get different ideas! February 5, 2012.
