Love your simple, yet attractive method to wrap a raw rock that has no drilled holes. I always worry about the stone slipping, but your method quells my fears! Great idea and great job!! Thank you so very much!

[@HeatherBoydWire]

I'm so happy it's helpful Patricia! All the best.

Thanks for watching Tish.

[@333HailBail333]

i love your videos! this one thought, my stone keeps popping out of the top or bottom…tips?

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thank you. If you curve the wire a bit it may help to hold the stone in place. You can use round pliers for this. They also sell nylon tipped round nose pliers if you are worried about scratching the wire. Hope this helps.

[@kwwlrox9187]

Nice design. I was all set to follow your tutorial until I realized it would not hold up (and possibly not even hold the stone) on a long term basis. How do you harden the wire once you've 'set' the stone to keep the wires from bending? Those 'cut' wires on the back are begging to be scratchers/catchers. I had hoped for a design that was both beautiful and practical for actual wear. Please post a functional finished product.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thank you. You can file the ends or use a wire reamer to round them off. I know people harden the wire with a mallet. The 16 g wire I used is quite stiff so holds up well. Good luck.

[@tahneeyuh3382]

I made one of these a long time ago and it has held up VERY well!

[@zaramubashir4947]

It didn’t work out for me

[@HeatherBoydWire]

This is a tricky design. It's difficult to make rings with cabochons that do not have holes. Good luck.

[@flossa1960]

Hi Heather. Do I need to size up the ring before i wrap it properly? does it lose much of its internal circumference while wrapping it

[@HeatherBoydWire]

It shouldn't lose any internal circumference. Good luck.

Is this copper wire?

This is Artistic wire tarnish resistant gold color copper.

[@saskiakristofedes2482]

Hi size of the bead ? Tnx in advance

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Hi Saskia: The cabochons are about 3/4 inches.
