This tutorial shows how to create these elegant wire woven earrings using 24 gauge wire, 30 gauge wire and glass rondelle beads. The pattern provided shows how to make the earrings shown here, but the wrapper’s creativity will provide endless combinations of wire type, colour and wrapped embellishments to make many different finished pieces from this one pattern. This tutorial can also be used to make a pendant of the same design. Only one step is different and the alternate step is included in the tutorial.

I have labelled this tutorial advanced because of the fine wire weaving required. I do encourage students with intermediate wire working skills to give it a try since the only way to get better at fine wire weaving is to practice.

Please note that only the finished product photos are on dark backgrounds. All step-by-step photos were taken on a light background.
