Create a Perfect Wire Spiral: Free Video Class

Along with simple loops, the spiral was the first wire technique I learned. In fact, my mom still wears a pair of earrings that I created back then with 8mm black rounds and a silver spiral dangle. (I try not to cringe when I see them--my technique has greatly improved since then!)...

Learn to Create Wire Jewelry on a Budget

One of the things I love most about jewelry is the diversity it affords (no pun intended!). Sure, I drool over the Tiffany’s catalogs, and gawk at the windows in the Diamond District when I’m in New York City. But my favorite pieces of jewelry contain no gold and no precious stones.

Learn to Create Perfect Simple and Wrapped Loops

Wired on Wire Remember your first simple loop? I remember mine. Santa Monica, 1990. It wasn't neat and it wasn't pretty, but it opened up a whole new wirey world to me. I guess you could call it an "entry" technique. Not far behind were...

Curl Up with Some Coils

Coils add an element of fun in your jewelry designs. Look at the bottom of the Carribean Breeze Earrings (at left) as an example. (Other people may call these coils "scrolls" or "spirals.") I tend to use coils whenever I want to make...
