In this tutorial we’ll learn how to make simple jewelry charms from craft wire. These charms can be used for making accessories, jewelries, decoration piece and much much!
Have a look at the list of supplies below and check if you’ve got everything on hand.
Supplies:
- Craft wire – 18-20 gauge
- Craft pliers – looping, cutting and flat-nose pliers
Instructions:
- Cut a small piece of wire, mine was 3 cm long.
- Create a small loop at an end of the small wire.
- Similarly create another loop at the other end of the wire, but this time wind the wire in the opposite direction of the previous one.
- Hold any one loop with the looping pliers and circle the remaining wire around that loop to create a swirly pattern.
- I circled the wire only once since the wire I took was small.
- Use the flat nose pliers to flatten the charm or you can hammer the charm as well, but this is optional.
They look cute right? You can use them for making jewelries such as- necklace, bracelet, anklets, earrings and so on. Enjoy!
