Hi Everyone. Today I'd like to show you how to make these wire wrap Loop Da Loop Rings.
In this video, I'm gonna be showing you how to make a ring similar to this one.
The main part of this ring is made up of a 16 gauge copper wire
and the wire I use to thread through the beads through the main component of the ring is a 28 gauge copper wire.
So this ring is made up of 6 mm rondelle which sort of changes color from dark to light on it's side
and the other one is a green and peridot color bicone crystal 4mm glass beads.
so today i'm gonna be using similar beads, so this is also a 6mm
gold tone on one side and transparent on the other end
and a citrine color bicone crystal...
and this ones just to give you ideas
this one i made with an 18 gauge fine silver wire and i use a 30 gauge wire to thread through the pearls
and also this one has 2 loop size. There's a small which is 4 mm and that one is a 6 mm loop...
To accommodate the 6 mm freshwater pearl
and this one the 4 mm freshwater pearl...
I made this one with different sizes of glass beads
made this with a 4 mm faceted rondelle
an 8 mm for the red one,
these are seed beads which is 3 mm or 8/0 size.
also these 2 rings have smaller loops.
If you notice the main loop of the wire or the holes,
they are smaller compared to this one.
This is about a 5 or 6 mm size hole
and that one is a 3 mm
The base for all these ring is made of a series of loop like this one here.
And some of them,
This one like the one we're going to make today is just the same size
that one is on a bend
and then some are small and large joined up together...
Like on this ring...
And it's really entirely up to you as to what you're going to make
and see this one here, you can see that that's a series of loops that I made up this way...
so you've got one there going like that and then
that would be the band going around your finger and it comes back to itself again
and again,going of course you gonna have it longer...
So basically, you gonna end up with something similar to that...
This one it's just a continous..
So I fairly have it longer than this one
and this is a series of small loops and large loops
But basically all it is just going around and inserting it through there
and making a loop out of these 2 tail that you have there
now you've got another little ring
of course you gonna squash it with a pliers to flatten it
and you'll end up with a ring like that
so I'm still gonna work on that one and put beads on that one
but I'm not gonna show you how to do that today
so we'll just do the simple basic...
so this red one here, what I've done to this is basically that's the loop
that's the loop just going around, so I'm just gonna pull this one around...
and if i tuck it in
and then by the time I loop that all around going to there, inserting it to there, securing it...
make some little loops, of course you'll make it neater
you just hook it up to there, secure it again and basically you're making a bend in the corner there
or the curve...
and the effect can be just stunning...
The design possibilities for making these loops to make these rings are just endless.
So it's just up to you or you're just limited only by your imagination...
So with the blue one, what I've done to it
so, if I just bend that like that
and put that on the mandrel
therefore you are creating something similar to that...
which i threaded the glass beads through with a 28 gauge copper wire
and swing it back or thread through the large glass bead in the center
so you can see the edge that that's a 28 gauge copper wire threaded through on the opposite side of the main ring componet
So now let's do the loop
