Tutorial: by delilah - Two Spheres Ring

This is an easy to do ring, I think anyone who has ever held a wire in his/her hands can make it out. No

need for many materials and it can apply to any spheres at hand, any color, any sizes, if you like. The silver

plated also, can be replaced, with copper or sterling silver one.

All we have to deal with in this tutorial is a bit of wrapping and... that’s all.

10 cm of 1 mm silver plated wire, and no more than 1 m of 0.315 mm wire.

Of course, don’t forget about the spheres.

Let’s start now!

Material List:
-10 cm of 1 mm silver plated wire,
-about 1 m of 0.315 mm silver plated wire,
-2 spheres/agate/beads

Tool List:

-flat nose pliers,

-round nose pliers,

-wire scissors,

-wire cutter,

-a mandrel or something round

Take about 1 m of 0.315 mm silver plated wire and start wrap it around the 1mm wire, patiently, leaving about 1 cm unwrapped at each end of the 10 cm long wire, for the spheres.

When almost 40 cm of that 0.315 mm wire is wrapped and we reach its end, we add the first sphere and

then bend the 1 mm wire close enough to make a very small loop as in the 2nd picture. Just when the loop is done, we bend it close to the sphere, as in the 3rd image, in a right angle to the main wire.

All these being done, we continue wrapping , straight to the other end of the 1 mm wire, close enough, but keeping in mind we must add another sphere there.

Once the sphere is attached, we do the same operation as we did before: create the small loop, bending it close to the sphere.

In the 9th picture we continue wrapping the wire till we entirely cover the 1 mm wire.

All done so far, we have in front of us an entirely coiled wire with two spheres at its ends, waiting to be bended on a mandrel, or why not, on the finger!

Turn the wire into a ring

In the last step, we have two pictures of the final ring, already bended, and ready to be worn.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this lesson and I can hardly wait to see your variations of this ring.

If there are any questions about it, please, feel free to ask me, I’ll be glad to answer to all of them. The

most important thing to me, is to make sure you understand all the directions/steps.

Sincerely,

delilah
