Wire Wrap Herringbone Earrings Tutorial - Beginner DIY jewellery making

Hi everyone - today, I'm going to show you how to make these beautiful herringbone wire wrap bead earrings. I'll take you step by step through the process, in depth, how to make your first earring... and then I'll make another without talking, so you can follow along without listening to me gabble on :D These little beauties are so versatile, and as you'll see, you can make them with so many different beads, including rounds, ovals, coin beads etc. Stay tuned for the tutorial on the longer elongated design. That's coming soon! Supplies you'll need for today's tute, are: 2 x 8mm beads (or 6mm if you only have them) 1mm (18g) copper wire, dead soft 0.6mm or 0.5mm (22g or 24g) copper wire, dead soft Flush cutters Chain nose pliers Round nose or 6-step bail making pliers Ruler Bench block and chasing hammer Hope you enjoy making these. As described in the video, I am in no way an expert in either hammering techniques or, indeed, copper work in general. I just want to share the joy of making with you all, and try to explain in beginners terms each part of the process. Copper wire is an organic material and as such, will play the game when it wants to, and give you a headache when it doesn't... LOL. Remember! It's all about the journey... having fun and producing something you've made with your own hands. Something to treasure and gift. Lots of creative love Sam x
