Tools Used:
1. Round nose pliers
2. Long nose pliers
3. Cutting shears

Thank you for viewing my tutorial. I'm going to make two different material lists: the first list is for
practice/beginners so you won't spend too much money and the second one will be if you are more confident with your work and would like to upgrade:

practice material list:
1. 6mm faceted crystal beads
2. 22 gauge non tarnish silver craft wire
3. Lobster clasp
4. Pewter findings - make sure it's the one with the straight single row
*all items on this list can be purchased at your local craft store (AC Moore, Pearl Arts and Crafts).

Upgrade material list:
1. 6mm swarovski crystals- these crstals look fabulous with this beadwork
2. 22 gauge dead soft sterling silver or silver wire

*for the upgrade list, you can purchase these materials online. I'm not sure where the best
place to purchase them but if you search for it online, you can find several merchants selling
these.

Thanks for watching!

  • Great job! I've watched tons of basic wire beading videos, this is by far the best. I particularly liked using the wire ring as a guide-most of the other videos recommend marking w/ marker, but if you do that more than once, you lose your guide. Thanks!
