I've been looking at all of the wonderful jewelry being created from hardware. I love the industrial look and the interesting pieces that can be found at the hardware store. The various sizes and different metals called my name. The washers seem to have been design perfectly to be used as links or focal points.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The coiled frames on the left were made with craft wire that I had accidentally used. The craft wire is now in the box marked 'give away'. Most likely to the art classroom of the local school. The coils with the bad wire were dismantled because the core wire and the bails were made with the correct wire.</span><br style="background-color: #eeffe8; color: #4b4b4b; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21.735000610351563px;" /><br />

It seems a bit weird making Christmas Jewelry in September, but that's the nature of art and craft fairs and festivals. I personally start to shop for my Christmas gifts and decorations early. It helps with the budget and of course to help reduce the stress of last minute shopping and the search for the perfect gift. So I have begun. There is a lot more that needs to be made. I'm waiting on a delivery with silver wire so there will definitely be more designs, not only earrings, but bracelets and pendants. In the meantime here's some eye candy for the Christmas season.<br /><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; color: #333333; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 8px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><tbody>

I was looking and thinking and contemplating a new pendant idea. It was staring me right in the face. My favorite bracelet! I've decided to design a double helix link into a pendant. Sometimes if I look to hard I miss what's obvious. I'll post a picture, as soon as this new design comes off the drawing board and becomes a dimensional new piece of jewelry.<br /><br />Here's my inspiration.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have just completed 3 necklaces. If you look closely they have a similar theme, a similar pattern, but yet I believe they all have different personalities. I even think I could expand on this pattern and continue to create more personalities.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />To begin a new jewelry project I need a new idea. I have actually woken in the morning with what I think is an original idea. I've even had an idea 'pop' into my consciousness while engaged in a mundane conversation. I wish this happened all the time, but it doesn't. New ideas, for me, require research and experimentation.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Often I have my face buried in a new jewelry publication. When I have seemly memorized every book or magazine I find myself surfing the Internet. I love looking at the creations on Flickr. And I'm always thrilled when my Google search presents me with a jewelry artist that I hadn't seen or found before. This is how I came across Zoraida Bros. I immediately fell in love with her wire jewelry.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I-C267txUhw/Ts1OsfYv9OI/AAAAAAAABBU/2Tz48LOnxO4/s1600/Copper+2+publish.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" hda="true" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I-C267txUhw/Ts1OsfYv9OI/AAAAAAAABBU/2Tz48LOnxO4/s400/Copper+2+publish.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<em><strong>This necklace is accented with double spirals and will be at </strong></em><a href="http://mountainmade.com/" style="color: #962200; text-decoration: none;"><em><strong>MountainMade</strong></em></a></div>
<br />Making a duplicate of what we find in a book, magazine or from a wire artist web presence is (I think) typical of so many of us. I want to see if I can do it. I want to learn the technique. But, claiming the original design as our own, well I don't think that's cool. I personally think if the design is out there in public land, then its to learn from and enjoy the talent. But if we use it to inspire our own creations, well we should put our own personal touch on it and it would be nice to acknowledge who was/is our inspirational artist. I don't think there is anything legal that requires it, but it's nice. When I worked in the corporate world and a co-worker had a great idea and their boss ran with it as their own, well that just wasn't nice. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />I started out by falling in love with Zoraida's necklace and wanted to see if I could make one for my personal use. As my wire was cut and shaped my mind (yes, I talk to myself) said, 'why not change the spirals in the original design to the double spirals (I call them mother and child). So I added my double spirals. Then as I continued to think and have an inner dialogue I thought, 'what if I added crystals?' And so I did. Since there was still time in the day I wanted to continue and asked "what if I incorporate crystals in between the links? Well you can see from the pictures how the personalities of the necklaces differ<br />.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here are five new earring listings now in <a href="http://www.artyzenstudio.etsy.com/" style="color: #962200; text-decoration: none;">my on line shop</a>. As much as I absolutely love these I must admit they require a lot of time to make. First I doubled up some wire and twisted it. Then the twisted wire went around a mandrel. Time in a bath of liver of sulphur, but more time removing the excess, etc.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm always thinking about new designs and new ideas for things to make out of wire. I say things, because I've stopped thinking 'just jewelry'. I''ve been playing with a new idea (at least for me it's a new idea). I've decided to give my hands ago at making hair barrettes. It's a simple concept actually. I just took some typical pendant or necklace links and enlarged and expanded on them. I needed to use industrial strength wire so they will hold their shape. Then I decided to use a small gauge wire to bind things together to add some additional stability. Because I can't leave well enough alone, I got out my trusty hammer and gave them all a whack! Some of them I have textured. Then the typical bath in liver of sulphur, a few pieces of steel wool, my Dremel and then a trip to the photography studio. (That would be the rail on the deck.)<br /><br />Here's the first batch. They are destined for the WV Highlands Gallery. This will be their maiden voyage and pricing. Time and customers will let me know if they sell and if the price is right.<br /><br />The first piece is my favorite and I'm planning on making another just for me. My sketch pad has many more designs and I'm hopeful they will be successful. I think the tourist at the Elkins Farmers Market might find them interesting. But the truth is there is no way for me to know if customers will buy them. I just need to test them. If not, then I'll be wearing them to keep my hair off my neck this summer.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Thank you for visiting. I'll let you know how the public reponds to these. Now I need to figure out a price. Something is only worth what the customer will pay for it. Hmmmm, thinking, thinking, thinking.</div>

Wire Charms from Scraps of Left Over Wire</h3>

I've been on a quest to find a book, magazine or blog article that focuses on wire charms. Several hours of searching on Google and Amazon and I came up with zilch, nada, zero, none, zip.....I'm puzzled. How come? Why can't I find a resource? Am I the only one that wants to know more about wire charms? How weird if I'm the only one.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<strong><em><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Times;">On a whim I made the upper portion with big swooping movement and the round nose pilers.

Charms, typically are preformed or cast and have served as jewelry enhancements for a long time. As a little girl I envied my cousin's charm bracelet. Her parents would give her a new charm whenever she became involved with a new activity, like her little ballerina charm. I've started making some wire charms. They aren't specific to an activity. They have an abstract form. Little spirals, curls, coils and crinkles can be made. Some are hammered to add another design feature. I'm working on adding colors to some of the charms and sealing them. There are ideas in my noggin for little daisies, hearts, dragonfly's and butterfly's. My imagination is soring with more ideas.</div>
These embellishments can take a design up a notch and really put the icing on the cake. I like adding them to the bottom of pendants, or dangling from a bracelet and if I make two that are identical they will transform a simple drop bead earring into something extra special and unique.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

After I have made some jewelry I usually have several pieces of odd lengths of wire left over. Those bits that remain after that final snip of the wire. These pieces can be anywhere from 1" in length to several inches and the gauge of wire varies. Sometimes, when time is short or my hands are tired, I save these bits and pieces. These can be round wire, hammered and textured flat wire or twisted wire, etc. Sometimes I delve right in with my pliers and start to take that tiny bit of wire and transform it into a charm. I have found that many surprising designs can appear from the wire, especially when I'm not planning a specific design. I just start to curl, twist and move the wire. Some of these charms end up really ugly and they are quickly put into the trash. But most of the time some sort of design comes from the wire and it becomes a keeper. I try not to think about the charms final purpose and what it is for or how it will look in a piece of jewelry. I'm just saving that small bit of wire and keeping it out of the trash. Once a charm is made, I try not to judge it.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<strong><em><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The top two charms I bent a piece of left over wire sorta in half. I say sorta, because I didn't measure. The bend was placed on the round nose pliers and then I twisted the ends around. I then formed coils, they were all stretched out in a random pattern without much thought to their final outcome. From there I made different types of spirals on the botton of some. </span></em></strong></div>
<br />The other day I was cleaning out my studio and came across my batch of charms. I was surprised by how many had been made and how much wire that had been saved from the trash. I decided I would oxidize them all. After they dried I sat in front of the TV and started to polish each one. It became very therapeutic.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Throughout this post I've inserted pictures of some of my little charms. As I look at them I can see that some of the designs came from forms I've seen or adapted from others. I'm sorry, but I don't know who the original designers are. Plus, there are many charm forms that came from my allowing the pliers and wire to just make a form and I'm certain there are many new designs just waiting to come into form.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<strong><em><span style="color: #674ea7; font-family: Times;">Jeanette Blix has a wonderful pair of earrings on her blog. In my vain attempt to recreate a pair for myself I am left with a huge batch of cool charms. As you look closely you will see the variations of wire gauge used and the different lengths of wire. There are a couple that don't even have a loop for attaching, so I'll add a jump ring. Maybe one day I'll master this techinque, but in the meantime I'll make charms.</span></em></strong></div>

On April 9th I wrote about all those charms I made from scrape pieces of wire. I thought I'd show you what I did with some of them.<br /><br />A few weeks ago I started a new pendant series, using gemstones and copper wire. I found myself possessed and I just couldn't stop experimenting with different stones and different patterns. Here are a few of the 75 that I've made. Yes, that's a lot, but I'm hopeful that the visitors to my tent at the Elkins Farmers Market will find them irresistible. If not, I'll have a lot of pendants! :) <br /><br />All of the pendants will come with a black 18" cord, but I left it off for the photos.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I have been a fan of wire jewelry artist and author Linda Jones for years. I have most of her books. She writes a terrific blog and frequently offers wonderful wire tutorials. Her most recent free tutorial is a happy flower pendant. And of course I just had to have a go of it. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />My pendant, as certainly your version will to, has taken on a bit of my own style. First, with my choice of beads. As I went searching for the perfect beads, I was immediately drawn to the smaller 4 mm dark purple crystals for the center of the flower. As the flower started to evolve, I felt it needed some color inside the peddles. Instead of adding beads down the center of each peddle, I decided on just one bead in the center of each. I must admit that decision was based on my being tired and seeing these larger 8mm crystals in a lilac color conveniently in front of me.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This pendant can be changed up with different colors and types of beads or with the use of different wire. How about using twisted wire? Or bronze wire? Or pearls? There are so many possibilities. Take a look at the silver pendant by Linda Jones. Isn't it lovely! And then mine done in antiqued copper.</div>

The Invasion of the Leaf Beads</h3>

My last order of jewelry supplies included 2 bags of leaf beads. A total of 190 beads. Both are in different sizes, with different holes for connection and with different color tones Little did I realize that I would soon get really tired of leaf beads. I really wanted to use them all up to avoid more storage (I'm doing my best to down size before I move). But, I think the leaf beads have won the battle and will be added to my storage. In the past couple of posts you've seen my leafy creations. Today's pictures are of my final leaf projects for the season.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Can you guess what I don't like about this pair of earrings? Working quickly and with low light I 'thought' the leaf colors were the same on both earrings. It turns out the blue is actually purple and the green is actually turquoise. Part of me likes the fact that they are different, so these babies will be just for me. Let's see if anyone says anything while I'm wearing them.</div>

The other batch of leaves are more muted in color and slightly larger. I started out by making 4 strands of linked leaf beads. When I assembled the pendant I decided that 4 was over done. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Anyway, I ended up with 2 extra strands that were completely different. Since I really didn't want to make 2 more pendants, because by then I was so done with leaves. I added a 3rd strand of a solid colored leaves. It turns out that my favorite pendant is the one with all the mixed colors.</div>

<br />Here's a tutorial for my most recent earring. Enjoy!<br /><br />Materials needed:<br />20 gauge or 18 gauge (I used silver plate by Para wire)<br />A pair of ear wires<br /><br />I used 20 gauge for the spiral portion of the earring, but in the future I believe I will use 18 gauge to give it a bit more strength. Al tho, I believe the 20 gauge is perfectly fine.<br /><br />Tools needed:<br />Flush cutters<br />Small round nose pliers<br />Chain nose pliers<br />Tube wringer<br />Sharpie pen<br />Ruler<br />Hammer<br />Steel block<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Measure and flush cut a 7" piece of wire.<br /><br />With your Sharpie pen, measure and make a mark at 1/2" from the end and another mark at 3" from the end. (or 2 1/2 " from your first mark.<br /><br />The balance of the wire will measure 4"<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Get your handy dandy tube-wringer ready. This tool is usually found in the art paint department of your local hobby store. Mine has been collecting dust, along with my paint supplies.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Insert your wire at the 1/2" Sharpie mark. This 1/2" of wire needs to remain straight. Later this will make the loop for hanging.<br /><br />Here's where you may need to practice. The pressure you use to squeeze the tube wringer onto the wire can't be too hard or you will break your wire. If the pressure is too gentle, you won't get a good crimp.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YUYaa5p77Fs/UGx9NExPJnI/AAAAAAAABeg/04CeyYnPA6k/s1600/100_9383.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="321" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YUYaa5p77Fs/UGx9NExPJnI/AAAAAAAABeg/04CeyYnPA6k/s400/100_9383.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />Turn the crank on the tube wringer and allow the wire to feed between the teeth of the tube wringer. This will give the wire an even zig zag bend. Continue to crank up to the 2nd Sharpie mark. You will then have 2 1/2' of zig zag.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Remove the wire from the tube wringer and use the tip of your small round nose pliers to make a small loop on the straight end.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zxnD6TRM4c8/UGx-M2mmBPI/AAAAAAAABew/ILqgG5B-IC0/s1600/100_9385.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="350" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zxnD6TRM4c8/UGx-M2mmBPI/AAAAAAAABew/ILqgG5B-IC0/s400/100_9385.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />Your wire will now look like this. 1/2" of straight wire, 2 1/2" of zig zag wire and 4" of straight wire with a small loop on the end.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PMorq6Z7syI/UGx-0ejztCI/AAAAAAAABfA/927ZVHAAXAg/s1600/100_9367.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="358" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PMorq6Z7syI/UGx-0ejztCI/AAAAAAAABfA/927ZVHAAXAg/s400/100_9367.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />Starting at the small loop, use your chain nose pliers to make an open spiral up to where the zig zag begins. I try to space the open spiral so that the space in between each row of wire is about the same as the thickness of the wire.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UOWU5oncZUo/UGx_SwlYt4I/AAAAAAAABfI/OhnOSzrQDCM/s1600/100_9388.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UOWU5oncZUo/UGx_SwlYt4I/AAAAAAAABfI/OhnOSzrQDCM/s400/100_9388.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="391" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Now slowly and carefully continue the spiral using the zig zag portion of the wire. I have the points of the zig zag wire actually touch the prior row of the spiral. the space in between each zig zag give the same spacing as the previous spiral rows. <br /><br />Do not spiral the remaining 1/2" of straight wire.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-a1el9l2RCqs/UGyAACkaDMI/AAAAAAAABfU/k3_NoAjj-Q8/s1600/100_9389.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-a1el9l2RCqs/UGyAACkaDMI/AAAAAAAABfU/k3_NoAjj-Q8/s400/100_9389.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="363" /></a></div>
<br />Use the middle of the mandrel on the small round nose pliers to make the top loop for hanging. I'm sorry for the blurry picture. Photography isn't my forte' and it was chilly outside. I guess you're seeing my shivering.<br /><br />Now gently hammer the entire spiral. This will work harden the wire and also flattens the wire for the appearance.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PZQv5pyH99U/UGyB-LGZtdI/AAAAAAAABfk/aE4pFPYqZNU/s1600/100_9376.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="316" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PZQv5pyH99U/UGyB-LGZtdI/AAAAAAAABfk/aE4pFPYqZNU/s320/100_9376.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />Now add some sort of dangle, a bead, a crystal or a squiggle of wire (I've used 18 gauge wire for the squiggle and then hammered it to give it some weight and balance).<br /><br />I hope that you've enjoyed this tutorial. Thank you for visiting my blog.<br /><br />Have a joy filled and creative day! Linda</div>

I have an addiction to Pinterest. There are so many wonderful pictures of wire jewelry to spark the imagination. Once I find a design that calls to me I become challenged to recreate the piece, which usually comes out a wee bit different, with my spin on the design. I followed a link on Pinterest, that lead me to Etsy, that lead me to KariLuJewelry, which is the shop name for the beautiful creations by Karissa Mohr. I adore her designs.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4IDjMn52yus/UIVecdcEmOI/AAAAAAAABhM/l1-Cm4LLdjk/s1600/003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="386" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4IDjMn52yus/UIVecdcEmOI/AAAAAAAABhM/l1-Cm4LLdjk/s400/003.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />So I accepted my own personal challenge, to see if I could recreate a pair of earrings that grabbed my attention. My design has a slight variation with the shape and I think my wire gauge is smaller. Since I really like them, I decided that I would take pictures of the process, just to document for myself. But then, as before, I thought I would post the tutorial here on my blog, just in case someone else wanted to give them a try.<br /><br />Supplies:<br />18 gauge wire<br />20 gauge wire (because the 18 gauge wouldn't fit through my gemstone beads and I didn't want to drill the holes.)<br /><br />Tools:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My handy dandy leather sound muffler thingy, or a folded towel. Plus my steel block, perhaps yours doesn't have as many scares in it (I really need to clean this one up). And, a jewelry hammer. I know, I know, your looking at this and thinking to yourself 'Isn't that a hammer from the hardware store?" Yup! Very high tech! One day I'll get a jewelry hammer. In the meantime, let's pretend the marks in my wire are intention. My artistic licence to give pieces an organic feel. Ha!</div>

What the heck!? Now you will need a mandrel that measures 2.0 meters in diameter, that's 'about' 1 1//2 inches. I used the #20 punch from my dapping set. Because I didn't know what the #20 meant, I used my sliding millimeter gauge to measure. Yup! #20 means 2.0 meters. Go figure!</div>

Place the 90 degree wire on the round portion of your dapping punch or mandrel. Hold the wire in place with you fingers against the mandrel. You want to make sure that you do not lose that 90 degree angle. The top bend in the wire will not touch the mandrel. It will stick out a bit. Now use your free hand to push the wire ends around the mandrel to form this shape. Bringing the wire straight upward adds a needed curve to the very bottom of the end wires.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Place the center of the small round nose pliers at the base of your form. You will have 2 wires in the pliers. Make sure your pliers are centered to align with the top bend, or your form will be wonky. Keep the pliers in place with your dominate hand and use the fingers from your other hand and grasp one of the spirals and pull it across the top of the pliers. Now you will have this form.</div>

Put the middle of the small round nose pliers back into the same place. Hold the pliers to secure the wire and use your fingers from your free hand to move the other spiral over to the other side. Now you will have this shape.</div>

Use your fingers to gently pull the bottom part of the form slightly apart. Here's a picture with a good mistake. I didn't line up the pliers with the center, directly under the top bend. This put too much wire on one side. Some magical tweaking is in store.</div>

Now it's time to get rid of some of your pent up anger or frustration. Use your hammer to work harden your form and to give it a nice finished look. I'm thinking of trying to hammer the spirals a bit more next time and seeing if I like the look. Oh, the possibilities.</div>

Now use your fingers to gently move your shape back to where the curves will over lap each other to the size of the middle of your round nose pliers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Now take some 20 gauge wire and your favorite beads or charms and add a wrapped looped dangle to the center of this opening.</div>

Here's another example of the final earrings. Can you see where I made a mistake? The earring on the left has a larger center loop. I must have used a different spot on my small round nose pliers, or I didn't press my wire down snug to the pliers.</div>

Tutorial: Hoop and Squiggle Earrings</h3>

In my quest for the ultimate pair of earrings I sometimes design them myself. However, I'm not the only one making earrings. There are many talented wire artists out there that are unbelievably talented. When I discover their creations I set a goal to reproduce the items. Sometimes I'm successful, sometimes I fail royally and sometimes the design takes on a life of it's own and turns out completely different from the original design.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-loQsXZ_Vz8U/UJhJBfMUnFI/AAAAAAAABmw/5LU3o86XiRg/s1600/Earrings+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-loQsXZ_Vz8U/UJhJBfMUnFI/AAAAAAAABmw/5LU3o86XiRg/s400/Earrings+2.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />I found this design on Pinterest, my latest favorite web place. There are a lot of potential variations for this design. Here are a few ideas, 1) Use 2 different metals, i.e. antiqued copper and silver, 2) wrap a bead or crystal at the top and then add this unit, 3) add some seed beads to the top squiggle on the unhammered sections of wire, 4) use twisted wire on part or all of the components. I bet there are other variations. I hope that you will enjoy this tutorial and I hope that it's clear.<br /><br /><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">

A very dear friend of mine is an icon of a loving, strong and determined women. I am proud to be her friend. She has recently recovered successfully from a double mastectomy and has had breast re-conconstructive surgery. Mamma's got new boobs! Her lovely daughter held a huge party in honor of her mothers success. Over 70 people came to the party to celebrate. I wasn't able to attend because the roads here in West Virginia were covered with downed trees, power lines and 2 to 4 feet of snow. But, I wanted to do something special for my friend, so out came my wire, beads, crystals, stones and I put my tools and hands to work. I wrapped up 50 pair of pink earrings for her and her guests and had our wonderful postal carriers deliver the little works of love. Perhaps other jewelry makers have and will create some pink for those women we so love and admire and show them how much love is in this world - especially because of them!<br /><br />Brenda and her daughter Ashlea were interviewed by NBC. <a href="http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/Breast-Cancer-Survivor-Goes-Viral-Thanks-to-Daughter-164583096.html" style="color: #962200; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Here's the link</a> if you would like to see the video.

Here it is December, that overwhelming time of the year. Yes, I know it's Christmas time and I absolutely adore this season, but you may agree with me that the to do list is longer than normal. Last week I managed to get the outside decorations up on the house. The weather today was so spring like that I ventured to the back yard shed and got all of those Christmas decoration bins hauled to my deck. Since my house is for sale I am going to spend some extra time going through all of my decorations and doing some serious down sizing. The 10 large plastic storage bins and 5 plastic wreath containers have gotten out of hand. I don't plan on moving more than 2 bins and 1 wreath container. I plan on giving many of my decorations to my family and what they don't want will go to charity.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />I have been plenty busy in the studio getting new designs ready to restock the shelves at the WV Highlands Gallery, so I thought I'd share some of the new pieces with you. The pendant above is a lentil lamp work bead, about 25 or 30 mm. I had a couple tree of life frames left over and this bead fit inside perfectly. I used 20 gauge wire to embellish the frame. Boy, what that a challenge. Future pendants of this design will be made with 22 gauge wire to give my fingers a break.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Sometimes I will just sit and wrap stones, beads or crystals with no design in mind. Then I'll just bag them up and store them away in the studio. This is the case with this necklace. I got so excited when I found these turquoise (dyed) stones all ready to go. I used some 24 gauge wire to wrap the front bail of this necklace.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This pendant is similar to the first pendant in this post This is the first time I've used Rainbow Rhyolite and I absolutely love it! Each stone is different from the others. I am certain I will be using it a lot in my jewelry.</div>

<br />I'm feeling over whelmed this beautiful Sunday. Here it is mid-day and I have a to do list that will take 3 full days to complete. Wha! Wha! Wha! Making jewelry for a living isn't always perfect. Al tho, I love every aspect of my jewelry business, there are times, like today, when I find myself wondering what happened to the well organized person!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

These earrings aren't listed - yet! But they match the bracelet above.</div>
<br />One of the reasons for my temporary craziness is keeping up with a jewelry business and at the same time working a full time job (only during tax season). Having a job has been a blessing financially during the lean start up years of getting my jewelry business going. I can say that I am now confident that I will not need to have another job next year. But, you know what they say 'Never, ever, ever say never!'<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />And so, I'm rambling. Today I've been listing new jewelry in my Etsy on line shop. So, I need to crop the pictures, write up a description, measure each piece, log each onto my inventory log and assign an inventory number. While I was in the midst of doing this I opened my earring storage container and it was 'EMPTY"! Where on earth were the 29 pair of earrings that are listed? So, in-between laundry, lunch, making soup and cleaning the kitchen I was in a panic looking for the earrings. I keep everything organized and labeled and it just didn't make any sense. I finally found the earrings in the wrong container and sitting on my desk. I had forgotten I needed to confirm that all the earrings were indeed listed. It turns out I have yet another time eater on my plate. There are 18 pairs of earrings that haven't been listed. Yikes! I wonder if I took pictures or if that's something else that needs to be done. To tell you the truth I will be putting a note on this pile of earrings, as a reminder, and leaving them for another time.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />Besides working full time and keeping up with my jewelry, I have a couple big projects on my plate. I'll go into more detail in a future blog post, but for today I must get back to the laundry and a 2nd pot of soup that needs to be made. Part of my plate is filled with a diet to eat healthier and to trim down. I'm being successful with the weight loss and yesterday I actually had to buy a smaller size of jeans. All of this is good, but it does take focus and time. Now I must stop whining!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My favorite way to relieve stress is to play with wire. Getting ready to pack up and move 150 miles away is stressing me out. Especially since no one knows when settlement will be scheduled. I can only remain as calm as I possibly can and wait as patiently as I can, until the bank provides a settlement date. Then and only then will I know when I'm to rent the truck and give a holler to my wonderful brother-in-law and my nephew to get ready to pack me up and drive me eastward.</div>

In the meantime, I've been experimenting with a tear drop shape for earrings. I've taken a 4" piece of 18 gauge wire, placed loops on the ends, wrapped it around a mandrel, hammered the wire to work harden and finally the experiment.</div>

<br />I've taken the same 3mm copper bead and wired them onto the base wire in different patterns.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />I then oxidized the batch, but to my disappointment the beads did not oxidize. The description doesn't say that there is any coating on them, but apparently there is a coating.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I don't think I'll repeat the copper beads again, but I do like the designs, so I'll be adding some 3mm gemstones or perhaps colored glass beads. As I write this and look at the design above, I am inspired to attach something from the top center loop, hmmm.</div>

<br />Above is the same design, only I have added some 24 gauge wire several times over the 18 gauge wire. Also, this pair of earrings has a larger loop at the top. I like the smaller loop that I made with the beaded earrings.<br /><br />Now, I'm going to chill in front of the television, another way to de-stress.<br /><br />I wish I knew how to take night pictures. I just looked out the office window to a clear sky and a lovely crescent shaped moon.<br /><br />Thank you for visiting.<br /><br />Linda</div>

<em><strong>This is the actual color of the bracelet, jade green. Some of the pictures below show it as blue, but that is because I took some of them during my work process and not in natural light.</strong></em></div>
<br />I was going through jewelry creating withdrawal symptoms. There's still so much to do to get ready for my move. There are boxes taped and stacked, pictures and mirrors wrapped, yet, there is more to do. The stress of an incomplete task was making me cranky and restless. So I decided to take today as a vacation day. Yes, I dug out my tools and materials and escaped the chaos of my home transition. Here are lots and lots of pictures of my days escape and an overview of my process.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-84XUkugx3ck/UWdIFH3IChI/AAAAAAAAB5c/vNvOMM7Fz90/s1600/SAM_0001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="392" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-84XUkugx3ck/UWdIFH3IChI/AAAAAAAAB5c/vNvOMM7Fz90/s400/SAM_0001.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I decided I wanted to create a new link for the beads on a bracelet. This picture shows how a slight variation in the length of wire, yet the same mandrel, can create different results. The link to the left is very round, the center is closer to the teardrop shape I was aiming for, and finally with a smaller connection link I achieved what I was wanting. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2HADlRO5Vp0/UWdIGsCEkJI/AAAAAAAAB5k/C7NLgFakPg0/s1600/SAM_0004.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="377" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2HADlRO5Vp0/UWdIGsCEkJI/AAAAAAAAB5k/C7NLgFakPg0/s400/SAM_0004.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Then I experimented with the original round wire and then a hammered wire. I decided the hammered wire link had a nicer appearance.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The next experiment was to hammer the top smaller loop. I like this result. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FVmy4oWv7qQ/UWdIrBPQZsI/AAAAAAAAB50/ZPlaSibOECg/s1600/SAM_0014.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="361" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FVmy4oWv7qQ/UWdIrBPQZsI/AAAAAAAAB50/ZPlaSibOECg/s400/SAM_0014.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The easiest way to achieve the top loop being hammered is to hammer it in the straight stage (top of picture) </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
After I completed the shape I hammered the bottom portion of each link.</div>

A group picture. At the end of day one I made quite a bit of jewelry. I'll put the finishing touches on them tomorrow.

Finally, the excess has been removed. Now it goes into the tumbler for about 45 minutes to work harden the wire and give it a final polishing.

Both of these bracelets are now listed in <a href="http://www.lindasinish.etsy.com/" style="color: #962200; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">my on line shop</a>.</div>
<br />The other day I posted some of the steps to make a jade colored Swarovski pearl and hammered link copper wire bracelet. I began to think...what if I used twisted wire and that lead me to change my bead to a petrol colored Swarovski pearl. Then of course, I needed to take pictures of some of the steps.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Co17nhpkdyE/UW26hhWc6HI/AAAAAAAAB9k/8ljxhHJpgxk/s1600/twisiting+wire.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Co17nhpkdyE/UW26hhWc6HI/AAAAAAAAB9k/8ljxhHJpgxk/s320/twisiting+wire.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="320" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
First, I needed to make some twisted wire. Since my power drill is packed away, ready for the move, I used my handy dandy hand drill.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4nz9pbxA-_k/UW269IPexAI/AAAAAAAAB9s/aVAhNmNmoPc/s1600/hold+the+wire+tight.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4nz9pbxA-_k/UW269IPexAI/AAAAAAAAB9s/aVAhNmNmoPc/s320/hold+the+wire+tight.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="320" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
Hold on tight to the end to keep the wire tight until it snaps off at the drill end.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-AY5igL6wQfg/UW26d53T76I/AAAAAAAAB9c/2i67eb6DW6M/s1600/link+comparison.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="304" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-AY5igL6wQfg/UW26d53T76I/AAAAAAAAB9c/2i67eb6DW6M/s320/link+comparison.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here's a comparison of the new twisted wire link to the original bracelet hammered wire link.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-T0YbERjgu64/UW296ny9XtI/AAAAAAAAB-g/WSpdmkc80-M/s1600/wrapping+the+2nd+bead.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="279" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-T0YbERjgu64/UW296ny9XtI/AAAAAAAAB-g/WSpdmkc80-M/s320/wrapping+the+2nd+bead.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="320" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
The next step is to connect the links with wrapped beads.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v3WjrQqQtLk/UW27L0UiDNI/AAAAAAAAB94/EbdkqNj8U4g/s1600/bracelet+black.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="305" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v3WjrQqQtLk/UW27L0UiDNI/AAAAAAAAB94/EbdkqNj8U4g/s320/bracelet+black.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="320" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
The entire bracelet is oxidized to a dark black color.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div align="center">
Then the tedious task of removing the excess oxidation.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Dirty hands and work area results in a polished bracelet. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Into the tumbler to work harden the wire and buff any sharp ends.</div>

Here's the jewelery merry go around, aka the tumbler.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After 45 minutes in the tumbler the contents are drained into a stainer and rinsed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Finally the experiment is completed and I am satisfied and it's listed for sale in my on line shop<a href="http://www.lindasinish.etsy.com/" style="color: #962200; text-decoration: none;">www.lindasinish.etsy.com</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Wrapping a Marble Pendant - Free Tutorial</h3>

If you follow me on Facebook, you already know that this project has been very frustrating for me. However, once I found the right technique it became increasingly easier with each completed pendant. (I bought 12 marbles and made 11 pendants. One marble was defective.) So I decided that I would take a ton of pictures of the process and write a tutorial.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />This all began with a lovely road trip with my friend Tammy. It started off as a girls day out. Of course we got hungry and started to look for the most perfect place to sit down for lunch. After we parked in Buckhannon, WV, we started to walk to the restaurant and a giant magnet drew us toward an antique store. Well my friends, that was the beginning, for there on the floor were bins full of hand blown marbles. Bright, happy marbles. I was hooked. I had no idea what I was going to do with them. I just knew that I 'must' have them.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JcI114hBf_8/UYbH5RvOnCI/AAAAAAAACLA/zmVDSFfdwN8/s1600/white+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="color: #962200; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: none;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JcI114hBf_8/UYbH5RvOnCI/AAAAAAAACLA/zmVDSFfdwN8/s400/white+2.JPG" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: none; box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="385" /></a></div>
<br />Then came the task of turning them into pendants. At first I went with my standby of the round cage, but without a drilled center I was stumped for the bail. Plus, the wire just wasn't working, not enough, too much and finally I realized it was to heavy of a gauge. I was frustrated. But, after I changed gears, i.e. the design, my frustration eased. I will warn you that the slick marble does like to slip around and takes on a life of it's own and has a tendency to fly out of your hands until it is trapped in the wire. After I made a few, it became a breeze. It just takes some experience with understanding what to expect with the slick marble. By the time I was making my third pendant it became second nature.<br /><br />Don't worry too much about the spacing of the side wires. As you create your pendant, there will be many opportunities to move the side wires to where you want them to be. Even at the very end of the tutorial.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
