Free Wire Jewelry Tutorials (8/8/2014)
I was initially smitten with wire work. Then, I met half-round and square wire and we did not get along. So I concentrated on bead weaving. But, I’m always glad I have the wire experience because I can do wrapped and simple loops. And often, I do them for my bead weaving friends/fellow students. I advise you to take a wire class if you haven’t.

Since then, I’ve made a few pieces for friends and family and have had some inquiries for custom pieces as well, which I entertain when I can. Most of my pieces were wire-wrapped, where I used wire to make chains of beads looped together. There are lots of tutorials in both picture and video form out there to which I’ve referred you in my past jewelry tutorials, but this week I’m working on an order so I thought why not show you how I do it too (and stop feeling like I’m mooching off others!). Here’s how I make wire wrapped jewelry.

Why do we need to work harden wire? Work hardening techniques allow us to deliberately change the temper of the wire that we want to work with and force it into a stronger state. In other words, we would work harden to give strength to soft metal to help it hold its shape. We can also use it to add springiness, as is helpful in a latched hoop earring or clasp.
