PENDANTS made from wire which has been
shaped, hammered, sanded, polished and coiled.
Firstly it shows you how to create a pair of

hammering wire, creating spirals and
wrapping/coiling techniques.
Using the same techniques, the lesson goes on to
explain how to create a SPIRAL LOOP
TEARDROP FRAME PENDANT and a SPIRAL

can be hung on a chain of your choice.

Instructions for
SPIRAL LOOP TEARDROP

Make sure the end of the wire has a flush cut end
and then cut off a 5.5cm length of wire with
another flush cut.

NB. Try and keep the gap between the loop and
the curved wire even.
Start with the roughest pad and rub all over the
wire pieces (front, back and sides).
Step 42: Grip the end of the fine wire with your
chain nose pliers and pull the wrapping tighter.
Step 45: Press the cut end down with your chain
nose pliers.
Cut both ends of the fine wire off and push the
cut ends down with your chain nose pliers.
