"Serene" Pendant Tutorial - Wire Weave Pendant Tutorial for Advanced Beginners
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 июл 2024
- ** NOTE ** To determine that amount of 20 gauge wire you need, measure the distance around the stone with your scrap paper or painter's tape and multiple that number by 3. (In this video, my stone was about 4" around, so I ended up using 12" of wire for this project).
For weaving wire, I usually work from the spool, but I would say to have at least 5 feet of weaving wire set aside for your project.
Happy Weaving!

You made the weaving simple by showing the detailed steps. Thank you.
I'm happy to hear that! Thank you. :)
So gorgeous front + back!!!
Thank you!!
Very lovely design and wonderful tutorial! I not only appreciate your detailed instructions but your taste in designs. While I find some other creators informative, I don’t like their designs as much as yours. Thanks for sharing!
Aww, thank you so much for your kind comment!
Love your work!
Thank you!
This is so pretty! With the back being so elegant - it's basically a two sided pendant. I also really like the construction of it where you sandwich the stone into the frame at the very end, it seems like it would be a great way to secure tumbled stones - especially those pesky shiney slippery ones that are a little uneven... Oh! And maybe one could make a pattern with the weaves connecting the two halves of the frame...
I'm so excited to go and experiment! Thank you for the inspiration!
You’re welcome! I’m so excited for you! Best of luck on your experiment. 😉👍
My goodness…you do incredibly beautiful pieces. I’m quite new and appreciate the intricacies of your designs. Doubt I’ll ever get near your level of beauty, but do appreciate the tutorials and inspiration..thank you.
Thank you for your kind words. :) I used to think the same, but with a little practice you'll be surprised at what you can do! ;)
❤ you make it look so simple.
Lol. Lots of practice, I guess. :)
Absolutely love love love it's delicious ❤
Thank you!
I look forward to this one!❤😊
Your voice is beautiful and gentle.
Aww, thank you, Rachel.
Cool! It's a very beautiful piece! If I hadn't see the wrap tutorial before, I would've looked at this and said this is something I could never make. Now I feel more confident in coming up with designs
I'm so glad that it helped you!! Thanks for sharing!
I really like the whole design fabrication! It is detailed without diminishing the cabochon. If this is classified as advanced beginner, could you please show intermediate and advanced projects? Great work - thank you for sharing your designs and making these tutorials!!
Thanks so much!! I like to make as many free beginner tutorials as I can for those who are just starting, but I am working on some more elaborate designs as well. Most often, the more intermediate pieces are written tutorials that are listed on my website. :) I hope that helps!
I love your creations and your tutorials! You’re so talented at making it easier for us to make lovely things, and i thank you!
Just a question about your wire…could you tell me if it is hard, half-hard, dead soft, etc? I went to the links you provided to order the 20 and 28 gauge but do not know what softness would be appropriate.
Thank you for your help and I look forward to learning from you.
🥰👍🏻😁
I’m so happy to hear that! 🥰 I use dead soft for all my projects. I hope that helps!
This is a great tutorial... I just have a question about how the Blue tape markings help you know where to start your weave in regards to the wire. My cab is larger. So do I hold the beginning of the wire at the first marking to the left and start my weave at the middle marking. I hope my question makes sense 2:34
Hi there! It's best to start from the middle if you want to have this exact pattern, but not necessary. As long as you have tail ends on either side to create the bail and back, you're good to go! Just measure the distance around the stone, mark its center. Then, mark the center of the wire and match it up to the tape and find where the weave should end on either side based on the stone's measurements and mark the wire. Hope that makes sense.
6:04
I also messed up at this part... I started the weave from the first line to the middle. Can I still continue the weave from flipping the frame over and continuing. The only thing where I stopped the weave is with the coil. Do I need to continue with the 2 and 2 weave down and start the new weave with a new wire. Also Do you cut the 28 g wire from the original weave, if so how long of a tail do you leave. Sorry for all the questions. Just trying to get it right.
Without seeing your piece, it's hard to tell for sure, but you can certainly do that. Just be sure that you're not weaving the coil on the back side of the frame. And if you're trying to mirror the first weave, you would just do the 2, 2 weave going up rather than down, or vise versa. As far as the tail, I usually leave about 12" in case I need to continue to weave a ways. If you run short or cut it completely off, that's no problem, you would just weave some more weaving wire as if you were starting over. Hope that makes sense. lol. If you have any more questions, you're welcome to send me an email at elizabeth@ellieshandcraftedjewelry.com or send me a message on Facebook. :) facebook.com/ellieshandcraftedjewelry
Perfeito! Gostaria de adquirir os materiais , onde posso comprar?
It really depends on where you're located. I get my wire from Riogrande.com and sometimes from Amazon. As far as stones, I get them from CASDANS.com, but as far as I'm aware, they only ship in the United States. But you can also find stones on places like Etsy. I hope that helps!
My stone is 4.5 cm by 3.5cm. What length would you recommend for this size 😊
I'm not sure based on those dimensions. I would measure the distance around the stone and then add about 6 inches or so. Hope that helps! :)
