On thing that has had me do this ring three times now is being too hard on the wire! When wrapping the wire around the shank, wrap tight enough to hold the wires together, but not tight enough to disrupt the shape or bunch the wires together (instead of letting them stay flat!). The wire will do what you tell it too without you having to force it. :)

Also, when forming the ring into the ring shape, don't be too tough on the wire trying to get the ring to stay in a circular shape. If you are too tough in this step, your wire will break!!

Buy every tutorial Bobbi puts out as she knows and has perfected this style of wrapping. So elegant and sophisticated. Just a plain fact in my book. Hugs Pam
