\"Designing<\/a><\/p>\n

Looking for wire jewelry ideas and inspiration? \u00a0My last project as Step by Step Wire Featured Designer 2014 can be found in the Oct.\/Nov. issue<\/a>.<\/em>\u00a0I’m sharing a project with coiled wire – \u00a0a technique I’m drawn to time and time again. \u00a0To create this project, I drew inspiration from the Majorette link that is featured in my wire book, The Missing Link<\/em><\/a>. \u00a0I changed the ends of the link, added two types of metal, and added a coiled strand of wire.<\/p>\n

\"Coiled<\/a><\/p>\n

Here you can see I took a prototype and made variations. \u00a0For one, I carefully shaped the wires into a bangle bracelet. \u00a0It’s a good idea to tumble this one to help work-harden and reinforce the curved shape.<\/p>\n

\"Coiled<\/a><\/p>\n

For the tutorial, I show you how to create a one-of-a-kind wire bail. \u00a0I pulled out a special, Hilltribe silver flower pendant that I’ve held on to for years. \u00a0It was time to show it off on its own special bail. \u00a0This project is versatile – you can mix the wire or not. \u00a0Add chain or add leather. \u00a0In this project, I used micro-fiber instead of leather cording. Hope you have fun with this one and add your own personal twist!<\/p>\n

\u00a0Thank you for stopping by and visiting my little corner of web.<\/p>\n
