Wire Jewelry Step by Step : Beth
Before I start the lessons, you need to know a few things.
1. The wire can not be too soft. If you start with the soft wire, your names are not
going to be easy to make them latter on. 28 g. round is good.
2. If you use sq. wire you need to pay attention every time you bend it because it will
twist, for sure. {In this case you need square nose pliers to untwist it}
3. Always pinch the wire from the back when bending.
Do not unbend (Go back to do it better} because it will brake
4. Make sure your work is flat and even while you are working the piece otherwise is
going to be difficult to do it later.
5. Get 15 inches of wire so you practice more than once.
6. Be patient, maybe the first few times is not what you expect but practice will get
you there. {My first one looked like a license plate in zig zag big and uneven}
Now here we go on the wire name lessons:
TUTORIAL 2 : Beth Pendant (Part 1)
1. Start about 1½ inches from the end of the wire, turning the long piece of the
wire to the front of the pliers; make a loop {one complete circle}.
2. Working on the long piece of the wire; pinch a little less than ½ of an inch
and bend to the back.
3. Press it down at the top, roll the top to the right just a little bit. You are rolling
two wires together (picture #1 in tutorial #1)
4. Working on the back of the wire; grasp it at the top and bend it up and to the
left and to the back of the “B” you should have a “P” (picture #1).
5. Grasp the wire in the cross of the “B” inside loop ( picture #2) and bend it to
the front.
6. Grasp the two wires from the back and; bring down the wire forming a half
circle, go around the back to form the 'B' (picture #3)
7. Grasp the wire at the bottom and bring it up to make the “e”.
8. Grasp it about half way from the “B” , bring it down to the right to form a loop
(you made an “e”).
9. Grasp the wire from the back at the bottom and bring it up (picture #4)
10. Grasp the wire even with the “B” and bend it to the back.; pinch it at the top
(picture #5)
11. Grasp it from the back at the tip; bend it to the right (picture #6)
12. Grasp the wire that you just bend, an bring it around the pliers and the wire;
to the front of the “t” you are making the cross of the “t”.
13. Grasp it on the other side of the “t” and bring it to the back (make sure is
even with the front).
14. Grasp it at the back and bend it down and hide it behind (carefully pinch the
cross of the “t'” ) making sure is even and you do not see the back wires. (picture #7)
15. Grasp it at the bottom of the “t' and bend it up.
16. Grasp the wire even with the top with the “t” bend it down and to the front
looks like an “L”.
17. Grasp it at he bottom and bend it up, toward you and pinch it a little.
18. Grasp it in the back about the level of the “e” and bend it to the right, to
make a hump you made the “h” (picture #8)
19. Congratulations you finish the name. Now, take the end; grasp it a little
higher than the tip of the “B” (look at the picture for reference) and bend it up,
fold it back and around the pliers twice, to form a double loop; then around the
wire twice to finish it; cut the excess in the back.
This is for the chain; do the same with the piece of wire that you left in the very beginning.
Finish filing the ends and carefully crimp the ends. Polish it a little and Enjoy it!!!
Part 2 “Beth” Pendant with dangling heart
20. TO DO THE HEART, take about 2 ½ ” of wire and bend it in half, pinch it and roll it,
open the two ends. Grasp it about ½ inch and bend it down, (make one loop) grasp the
other side and do the same. Grasp it at the top of the second loop and bend it back; pinch it .
Cut the extra wire in the first loop, make it look like a heart.
Fold the wire to make a loop to hang do it twice. Put it on the name.
