And my wire wrapping learning continues... this time with a wrapped briolette from a free tutorial by Eni Oken. You can find the tutorial, btw, here. And like I said, it's free! Funny me buying all - or at least 99% of Enis' tutes, and then working on a free one, lol! But this one at least didn't feel so intimidating! I think my skills are still so basic, that I'm afraid to tackle them!I made as usual 3 attempts. The first went directly in the trash bin, and the second and third are here. The second is still pretty horrible, wraps are very far away from each other and overall I don't like it.
While working on the second piece, one thing I learned is that if I can do it with the fingers, try not to use the pliers that much. I used the round nose pliers to form the top loop from the wrapped wire, and this is when all came apart in big gaps. On the third I only used my fingers (and sore fingers I have!!) and the loops stay rather nicely together.
Once again showing my third attempt in my hand, to see the size of the stone, it's rather huge :)
