Mixed Metal Swirl Earrings – Wirewrapped Earring Tutorial

$2.83

Description

This lesson teaches you to make a pair of earrings with swirls of one color of metal on top of a background of another color of metal. The photos show a pair of earring with a copper background with sterling silver swirls, but you can choose any color combination you like.

These earrings have hooks, but they are made in such a way that they look more like posts when worn.

If you do not have any practice with wire weaving, I would suggest that you look over my free tutorial, Basic Weaving Techniques. You can find a link to this free tutorial in the PDF file.
