Dear oxana thank you very much for this titorial and for all your tiutorials. I have started with wire wrapping in january and have learned from you so much! I have a question to the beads. I bought gem beads in different sizes, but the holes are so small that i can get a 4mm wire through. Can i make the holes bigger myself? How big should the holes be? Meanwhile, i have been paying more attention to how big the holes are and often they are 1mm. But this is already too small, as the 18 gauge wire itself hasca diameter of 1mm. Where can i find beads with larger holes? Is this only my problem????
She says it is 18 gauge for the ring part of the ring. She said it is harder wire for stability. I studied jewelry fabrication for two years while in college many years ago. If you follow her directions step by step you will get the correct wire to make this ring. This woman is really good .
Right under the title of the item she's wire-wrapping. There is a description and she tells you what she uses for wire. In this one it is a dead soft wire 18 gauge. 13in
You dont need to follow this exactly..... Its not a cake you're baking...use your own discretion and experiment. It seems like everyone wants to be spoon fed info these days....
Once again you dazzle us with elegance. They are both beautiful, but the beads raise it to another level. Thanks for sharing! 😷⚒
Thank you so much!
This is so cute and I love the other design you did as well. Thanks for sharing. 💝🥰🤗
I made it today! My first one and I love it. Thanks so much 🎉
Wonderful! You are very welcome
You are so skilled, it’s amazing. You’ve ne thinned that the wire is round but in the video sometimes it’s seems half round?
This is so awesome!! Thank you for the tutorial.
You’re welcome 😊
Beautiful as always!
Nice, so different.🌹

these are metal beads from ebay, you are right gemstone beads usually have tiny holes and so wouldn't work for this purpose.
Nice!
How difficult is it to resize a ring like this once it is complete?
I don't think it is possible because you'd have to completely redo the wires
I do like this but about the wire. Is it a soft wire, half hard or hard wire?

To make the wire stronger she hammered it
