TUTORIAL:

This lesson will teach you how to create my lovely hand-coiled "Elizabeth" earrings.


You will need to know measurements in fractions of inches and be comfortable manipulating wire. You will mark the wires, snip the wires, bend, hammer, make jumprings and slight open spirals.


I've included 4 very helpful tips.

• 20ga round wire of your choice (dead soft is ideal)
• 26ga wire
• 2 - 3mm round garnet beads
• 2 - 3mm round peridot beads
• 2 ear wires in your choice of style

• Flush wire cutters
• Needle nose pliers with smooth gripping surface
• Small round nose pliers
• Ruler that measures in inches
• Marker
• Chasing hammer
• Steel block or jeweler's anvil
