Free Tutorial: Manually Twisted Wire

Rating:	★
Category:	Other

This lesson shows you how to create twisted wires manually by hand. This very easy technique is a great use for turning too many excess wires on the piece you are creating into intricate decoration of the piece, instead of trimming the wires and wasting them off.

This tutorial allows you to easily create “filigree” wire with very minimum tools (pliers only). And since it is manually created, it also allows you to have different looks of the twist depending on how far the angle between the 2 wires.

Level: Advance. Tutorial price: Free

These are several simply pretty pendants made while I'm exploring macrame square knot technique to create the bezel. Praise God, this is the first bezel design that He allowed me to originally create, and thank God this wire macrame bezel turns out very versatile, so many variation possibilities made possible with the technique. It's so much fun to work & play with :)
