Learn How To Wire Wrap A Pendant With Craft Wire

This week on Free Spirit Beading with Kristen Fagan, I showed how to make a pendant using Soft Flex Craft Wire to make a wire wrapped cage for holding a cabochon, donut or gemstone. I used 22ga Silver Plated Craft Wire in Non-Tarnish Silver for the base wire, as well as for the wire wrapping. Wire wrapping is a wonderful way to make all sorts of creative jewelry.

I first showed how to make wire wrapped pendants in the recent TGBE Midwinter Market video with Sara Oehler. Click here to watch our video.

To help get me started with this wire wrapping technique, I watched a great tutorial on the Beaducation YouTube channel, and I adapted the technique from there. Here is the cabochon pendant necklace that I made during our Midwinter Market video.
