Next we will show you how to make a ring with your own hands using wire. Wire - this is the most common material in the manufacture of rings with their own hands. Do you remember how in childhood we twisted rosettes from wire and wore them, as the most expensive decoration? Copper wire is sufficiently accessible and durable and multifunctional. It can be used for any kind of weaving: pigtail, heart and many other shapes.

Important! If you do not have experience in weaving rings from wire, then first practice on simple elements, and after - you can start creating a complex composition.

This is one of the easiest ways that any needlewoman can handle. To make a ring made of wire you will need such materials and tools:

  • An interesting button or natural stone.
  • Soft wire.
  • Pliers.
  • Round nose pliers.
  • Piece of a tube in the form of a cone.

Procedure for making a ring from a wire:

  • First you need to fix the stone on the wire. If you use a bead, then simply thread the wire into it.

Important! The stone can be painted using a can of paint. To do this, put a pebble on a piece of paper and point the spray gun at it. After completely drying, turn the stone and in the same way treat it from the other side.

  • After - using wire cutters, bend the wire back, attach it to the conical tube.
  • Wrap the entire conical tube several times.
  • Next - tightly tighten all the turns of the wire, and its ends bend up and down.
  • Remove the finished workpiece with the tube and the ends of the wire, fix the turns from the sides of the central stone or bead.
  • The ends of the wire wrap the entire ring, about 3-5 times.

Important! Make sure that the coils are snug against each other.

  • At the end of the work cut the excess wire using round-nosed pliers, fasten all connected turns to give a flat shape.

Important! Remember that aluminum breaks down quickly, so if you took just such a wire, when creating loops of different shapes, you need to be extremely careful and attentive.

  • Now just wrap your finger with a wire, using pliers. So we get the foundation of the future ring.

Important! In this case, you can take a size cone, because it is much faster and more convenient.

  • We take a satin ribbon and with the help of a glue gun we attach it imperceptibly to the edges of the wire. We begin to wrap the tape around the whole ring.

Important! It is necessary to look for the tape to fit tight enough to the wire when wrapping the circumference.

  • When the tape is wound on a ring, we cut off excess material, and after - we fix the end with glue.
  • Next, cut off the tape segment, about 10-15 cm and cauterize the ends with fire.

Important! In order that the edges of the tape do not pour, before cutting it is possible to heat the scissors with fire.

Important! Constantly control the process of flattening a teaspoon. Try to strike the coin with the same force for the most flat edge.

  • Then drill a hole in the very center of the coin. When you drill through, the coin will be securely fixed.
  • Now grind the edge of the coin with sandpaper until the surface shines.
  • Then use the drill to enlarge the hole in the circle. We constantly change the bit to a larger size, until the necessary circle for the future product is obtained.

  • After full drying of the adhesive, cut off excess felt from the sides of a flat or zigzag line.
  • We grease the substrate well with glue.

  • Wrap the wire with a bead around your finger or use a size cone. The remaining ends bend - they will later be needed to fix the ring.
  • Now we begin making the ring. Take the wire and cut off three pieces 2-3 cm long.
  • For each piece we sew two beads. We bend the ends of the wire so that the beads do not roll down.
  • After this, bend all three parts in half, that in the center formed a groove, the beads spread on the ends of the wire.
  • In the cavity we place the previously prepared substrate, passing parts of the wire through it.

Important! Do not forget that the bent edges of the wire should be located only near the ring.

  • Now bend the lengths of the wire so that the beads are close together.
  • We twist all the ends of the wire so that the beads are on top.
