Simple Ring Tutorial - Eps 14

One of the simplest tutorials you will ever find for making beautiful, functional rings with nothing but a single bead or stone with drilled hole and a single foot of 20 gauge wire.
Beginning wire wrapping tools:
Basic Pliers Set - amzn.to/3mm4Rgp
20 gauge silver plated wire - amzn.to/3vP4EFu
20 gauge antique copper wire - amzn.to/3BncsQa
18 gauge wire - amzn.to/3Bge3qU
Earring hooks - amzn.to/2XVgYaW
Necklace cords - amzn.to/3Gt2Oiu
I may receive a small reward if you purchase with these links.

    If one more person asks me, "Why the glue???" It locks in and covers the sharp ends in case they weren't tucked perfectly, it stabilizes the stone so it doesn't wiggle if the wire isn't tight enough, it adds strength so the whole ring is less likely to unravel if not wrapped tight enough. You can make rings without it but it's just a little extra.

    I love your tutorials. To harden my rings I use a metal mandrel with a nylon hammer. It does not flatten the metal and the ring will not bend under pressure. I have used 24 gauge wire to make rings, and after I hammer them they are very sturdy and have not bent or warped.

    Hey, Matt! Kudos to you on your "Just Go Ahead And Do It" approach. I have wanted to make jewelry for a while now, but was intimidated because I bought books that listed materials that were expensive and instructions that assumed you knew something about it already. Then a watched a few of your videos, and realized I can just go ahead with the few materials I have for a start. Amazing revelation! After I finish my coffee I am going to take a look at the supplies I have and I bet I will be able to make some stuff. Thank you and be well.

    Hi Matt!! As a self taught artist I too make wire wrapped gem rings, adjustable wire snake rings, adjustable spiral rings, and wire woven rings. I really loved seeing your tips and tricks especially the part about E600. I never knew to do that. I really loved seeing your disc rings and your gem spiral ring. I'm going to have to try making them. Speaking of not being afraid to make mistakes. Yesterday I tried wire wrapping a black agate with orange druzy oval stone in 18 gauge raw copper wire. Boy I failed big time. Lol. But the way I took it apart it came out to be a spiraled scarf pin. I just have to tweak the end that's the stick part and hammer it and then I'll have my 1st scarf pin. So yes as I've heard from other artists too including you SOMETIMES MISTAKES ARE THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN TO YOU!! You are such a superb teacher. Thanks so much for sharing your mad skills with us. Please don't ever stop making videos and live shows. You're so awesome and funny and super talented. So a big thank you!! Sorry so long but just wanted to let you know about my mistake since you brought up about not being afraid to make mistakes. Much love Melissa Doucette from Florida (p.s. I'm the 1 who was in my 1st live chat 2 days ago when you did the unboxing video and wore the infinity scarf on your head and kept singing away with your new Aaron Neville dude). Lol. 😆😆💜💜
