I have collected several large faceted gemstones that I would really like to make into pendants in the wire wrapped style. I have never done this before and before I go out and purchase all the wrong supplies....Can anyone recomend a great book or dvd that would aid me in wrapping cut gemstones? A lot of the instructions I see online deal with cabachons or nugget style stones. Or if you aer a Raleigh, nc resident and know where there might be a class I could take to learn that would be great. I just really love the wire wrapped style and I can'r wait to try it myself!
Hi Tara,
Try www.jewelrylessons.com
They have lots of tutorials that you can purchase and even free ones too
I use AltaVista as a search engine and put in "wirewrapped jewelry tutorials" and came up with some really good ones
