Twisted Wrapped Briolette TUTORIAL



This lesson shows you how to wrap briolette with manually twisted wire method. This easy technique enables us to use smaller gauge wire for briolette with small hole, so no more extra effort to ream and enlarge the hole. This method holds the briolette securely using 1 ply of continuous wire twisted together, and the twisted wire creates beautiful accent for the briolette itself. I will also teach you some possible variations too! So, in this ONE tutorial you will get FOUR lessons to create those FOUR styles of twisted wrapped briolette you see in the pictures.

Level: Beginner.
Tutorial consist of 15 pages: 24 + 12 steps for all projects and variations.
Detailed picture(s) for each step.

The dark side of the Flower pendant






There's a flower...
In the dark... dark it was...
Gloomy... trapped and cold...
Blinded... it's all a mystery...
Fainted and almost fading...

Then it comes....time to reborn...
The light cast out the dark...
The mystery revealed...
The chains are opened...
The flower brought to life...

But still... there remains...
The dark side of the flower...

Custom order available.
Material: black onyx stone, rhodonite stone, Swarovski crystals, charlotte, black colored copper wire, wirelace and crocheted black cord necklace

Green Peace Lacy Warrior Bangle








It all started with 3 ply of different colors (chartreuse, amethyst, gold) copper wires crocheted together as the base of the bangle... then it comes to choosing the stone... These gorgeous labradorite stones are chosen because their dazzling flashes of colors really match the crocheted wire colors. Each stones then set with ornate bezel into the crocheted bangle. Next is adding the swirl frame and coiling it to get the lacy look. The clasp is also made with the same technique of the swirl frame.

It took a quite long process for me to be able to start seeing the beauty of this peace, and took around 20 hours to finish. Thank God the result is beyond my imagination. The widest part is 8cm, and when worn it reminds me of a warrior bangle, but this one is a beautiful warrior fighting for peace for all, powered by her love of God and others surround her...

Custom order available.
Material: labradorite stones, Swarovski crystals, colored copper wires (chartreuse, amethyst, gold, dark brown), seed beads

Golden Trinity Filigree Butterfly






This is a very special custom order from a special friend who will use this butterfly for a wedding red rose bouquet! After the wedding, the butterfly can be worn as pendant.

I'm so thrilled by this challenging work, this is my first time creating butterfly, and the request picture shows that it should be 3D with very fine filigree, with added glitter and with red organza fabric on the wings also. I haven't done the last two parts yet, but will do very soon while still thinking on how to actually do it hehehe.....

However if I can already get to this step, this is only made possible because of The Holy Trinity! Thank God!

Will be updating soon.. :)

Custom order available.
Material: non tarnish brass wire, freshwater pearls, japan beads
