Today's artwork: Necklace and Rings

So I was suppose to post a little bit earlier but because of the bed weather (I overslept in my nap) I did not finish in time. 

If you read my DIY entry yesterday, you will see a familiar part of the necklace I made today. I basically just connected all the loops to make a chain of beads. I used gauge 23 aluminum wire and faceted rondell glass beads in royal blue. This is actually a choker and would look great on an open neckline.

I also made 10 pieces of simple or every day cocktail rings that will surely glam up your look instantly. 

I usually wear this on my pointer finger like this. 

Arent they just pretty? 

Thanks for taking time to read! If you want to check more of my jewelry, simply visit my facebook page  msaccessories (by Sheela Farinas)  or click any of the images here. 

Next post will be another tutorial so watch out for that! 

Til next time!

How to Make a Wire Loop

When I first started making wire jewelry, making wire loops is the first technique I needed to master. It allowed me to make so many things like earrings, bracelets and even necklaces! From  simple single bead earring to bunches of dangling beads in a necklace, it was all made easy with this easy to master technique.

wrapped loop

First, know that there are two kinds of loops that you need to master before you start to experiment. One is a simple wire loop that you basically create a circle with the wire using a round nosed pliers while the second is called a wire wrapped loop using the same tool.

Here are ways to do it.

Please note that the circle (loop) should sit on top of your bead in order for it to look presentable and to ensure it will not loosen. 

Here's an illustration

Thanks and catch you again soon!
