Wire-Wrapped Rings Free Tutorial

I was so excited to find a free tutorial on how to make wire-wrapped bead rings. I've been wanting to make these for a while now. It's super easy! I've downloaded the tutorial and you can get it here: free wire-wrapped ring tutorial

If you want to have a more extensive tutorials, you have to pay for them, so I just got all the free ones! =) You have to create an account with them, but it's free! You put all the free tutorials in your cart and once you've found all the ones you want, you go to check-out, and it will tell you to go to your downloads (a tab at the top of the page) and you can few all your free tutorials!

For this tutorial they say you need to have a ring form, but I just used a glue stick and my finger to figure out the size I needed. =) This is what I call resourceful. =) (or you could call it cheap...haahaa!) 
You'll need beads, 26 gauge wire (you can use thicker wire if you want), pliers, & wire cutters
I've been hanging on to these mismatched beads thinking I could use them for a later  project...and  I can use them for these rings! yeah!!


I LOVE them! Great for a present! =)
Have you ever dabbled with wire and beads? Don't be intimidated, it's not as hard as it looks! Give it a try!! =) Happy beading!!
