Q.I'm new to all of this and am trying to learn how to Wire Wrap Seaglass and make earrings and necklaces. any online instructions out there?? I live in the Caribbean and not aware of any classes I can take locally. Any help would be appreciated. I have the wire, glass, findings and leather for necklaces and earrings.
A.http://www.tumbleweedglass.com/cab.html This is an *excellent tutorial for wire-wrapping a cab by our very own Susan Wright. I'm sure you could adapt it for crystal/stone/beachglass. http://jewelrymaking.about.com/library/weekly/aa112398.htm There are 2 pages - the link to the second page of instructions is at the bottom of the first. A wired piece of beach glass is shown at the bottom of page 2. http://www.wigjig.com/jewelry-tools/index.html WigJig University Free Designs - you might try surfing some of WigJig's links on this page for various designs. --
