What You're Saying:

"I have been a Beader's Advantage Member for years now and I love it. I send an order about once a week and sometimes more but I NEVER shop for beads elsewhere. Aunties Beads is the best I have ever found and I love the speed on shipping, quality of beads and beading supplies and the ordering accuracy on my orders that Aunties Beads provides. Never a day goes by without checking out the Aunties Beads website. The Advantage program cannot be beat."

"I couldn't believe how fast my order came. I was very pleased with everything I ordered and I definitely will be ordering alot more. Love the videos, they're alot of fun and helpful. The website is awesome! Thank You!"
- Chris from Missouri

"I love ordering through auntiesbeads.com! I live in a town where the closest thing to a bead store (hobby lobby) is 30 minutes away and the quality and service aren't up to par. With your website I can get most everything I need in a very short period of time and with anything that isn't available I can sign up for emails to let me know when they become available. Thank you for being my go-to bead supplier!"

Totally Twisted Ring

I love turning beads into rings! Playing with our new copper Artistic Wire and our new 18mm Twist bead, I came up with a ring design that makes a twist bead even more twisted!

Shanna Steele, Auntie's Beads Designer

Instructions:

Cut between 2.5 and 3 feet of wire. Place the Twist bead on the center of your piece of wire. Bring both pieces up across the bead so they meet in the middle. Twist them around each other once so your right wire becomes your left and vice versa. Bring both pieces of wire down the side of the bead. Place the bead on the ring mandrel with the wires running down the side. You want to begin wrapping your ring one size above the desired size. I wrapped mine at a size 8 so it would be a size 7 when finished. Wrap the wires 3 times around the mandrel so you create a band that has 6 pieces of wire. Make sure your wires end up on opposite sides of the bead. Take the ring off the mandrel. Wrap the excess wire 4-5 times around the "band" you created. Use your Nipper tool to trim excess wire. Use your Crimper to tuck ends. Repeat that process on the other side of the ring to finish.

Materials and Tools Needed:

Swarovski Crystal Twist Bead, 18mm, Crystal Copper (1 piece)
Artistic Wire Spool, 20 Gauge, Bare Copper Colored Copper Wire(2.5-3 feet)
Black Plastic Ring Mandrel
Nipper Tool
Micro Crimper Tool

TIPS: Wire Wrapped Rings
Item Type: Ring Project
Customer Reviews
So many options with this design!
I love this design! I am a fused glass jewelry artist and just tried this wire wrap with a piece of my fused glass and it turned out absolutely stunning. It is so simple yet can be elegant, playful, or casual depending on what you choose to use as your focal. With your wrap there are no limits to what you can use. The instructions are so easy to follow, thank you so much for this unique and fun design.
