How To Make Wire Wrapped Jewelry:7 Free Tutorials
86I am absolutely amazed at some of the awesome wire wrapped jewelry I've been seeing lately online. Of course, I tried to get out there and see what freebies I could find but these free tutorials were a little bit harder to gather up as I noticed many are selling their wire wrapped jewelry tutorials for as little as 2.00. I still figured I could get a few free ones and so I did manage to get at least 7 of them all together in one place and a bonus one for a lovely DIY wire clasp. All of the sites I found these on are amazing so please do try to check them out. If you are a craft nut like me, you will be glad you did. I really do hope you enjoy these free wire wrapped jewelry tutorials!
Tutorial #1 Wire Wrapped Bracelet
Look at this gorgeous wire wrapped bangle. I can imagine it in all sorts of colors and with different type beads. You can find a link to the tutorial for this pretty bracelet and lots of other wire wrapped jewelry at The Beading Gem's Journal. This is really an amazing site and worth checking out!
Tutorial #2 Wire Wrapped Earrings
I found this easy to understand, wonderfully illustrated tutorial by Aniolek-maly on Deviant Art for these gorgeous wire wrapped earrings. Aren't they amazing?
Tutorial #3 Wire Wrapped Rings
How do you like these pretty wire wrapped rings. I love the colors and get excited at all the different looks you can get from the huge selection of beads out there. This is a simlpe wire wrap ring tutorial by Erin Weik at 123BEAD. It's awesome to be free.. I found a few like this that weren't free. Thank you Erin!
Tutorial #4 Wire Wrapped Earrings
Wow.. look at these beautiful dangling wire wrapped earrings I found at wire wrapped designs with a free video tutorial by craftybabyhope. They do look a bit intimidating as beautiful as they are. The video is awesome though and I definitely recommend it for anyone who already does or wants to attempt wire wrapped jewelry.. Such beautiful work!
Tutorial #5 Wire Wrapped Button Rings
Well, aren't these just cute as a button! I really do like these.. very cute. Go to Folksy to see this free tutorial for this Flower Power Button Ring. Be sure to check out all the great stuff on Folksy.. TONS of great tutorials.
Tutorial #6 Wire Wrapped Bead Ring
Another awesome ring tutorial here at the Bead Studio. These beads come in tons of colors and designs. You could get just about any look you want. Each month they add a new free tutorial on the site and also have a newsletter. The free tutorials are very nice... This is a great place to checkout and bookmark too.
Tutorial #7 Wire Wrapped Vintage Button Rings
Have some vintage buttons lying around that you don't know what to do with? Make vintage button wire wrapped rings by Rachel at Holy Craft! You have to admit, aren't these so cute? You could make a bunch of these up and sell them in your craft booth at the flea market or make them as gifts. I just love the look of these rings.
Bonus: Garden Gate Jewelry Clasp
I know this isn't a finished piece of jewelry but it is used to make a finished piece and couldn't pass up sharing this as it's just such a pretty handmade clasp. I found this very nice tutorial at Art Bead Scene. It's a great tutorial and very easy to follow. Make sure to have a look around this blog, it's a very nice one and very inspirational.

Hey..very interesting hub!I really liked all tutorials especially Tutorial #1,2 and 3...voted up!
viking305, Wow, thanks! I'm glad that the hub inspired you.. I think any of these but especially the cute little button rings would be a HIT at the craft fair. Thanks for the votes, I appreciate it :o)
Anamika S, thank you so much.. taking a jewelry making class would be so neat! I don't know of any around here though. I would love to learn more about gemstones and I see you have some great hubs about them already.. I'm gonna go have a look. Thanks for stopping by and for the votes.. I really appreciate it!
You are welcome Sunshine.. it was hard to find free tutorials about wire wrapping for some reason but the few I found that were offered were good ones. Glad you like these :0)
You must have been reading my mind! I have been searching for some other crafts to make that I can sell at the craft fairs. Wire jewelry is just the thing.
These look amazing so thank you for providing the information and the links to the You Tube Tutorials.
Thanks for SHARING. Voted up and useful
You are amazing! I absolutely love these jewelry ideas and is planning to do a course on jewelry making before this year end as I have an added advantage (knowledge of gemstones). Nice Hub, voted useful.
Yet another genius hub! I have wondered about how wired jewelry was created and now I know. Thank you for always teaching us!
starstream, Thank you for stopping by and for the vote.. I really appreciate it. I have yet to try my own wire wrapped jewelry except for just playing around with some wire now and again.. I still plan on starting a serious project though. As you said, I still have to make sure I have the correct tools, wire etc.. I know that is all very important. Thank you again for stopping by. Did you mean to leave a link for me or did you mean you have a beaded tutorial here on HubPages?
I have made a few pieces of wire wrap jewelry. The hubs are available and it is surprising more people do not try the craft. When you prepare remember that it truly is a craft which means focus to materials, tools, and time to practice is very important. I have seen some spectacular work at art shows using this technique. I voted your hub up. I wrote an article on beaded jewelry here.
Emer420, Thank you! I appreciate the votes, too. I've learned since writing this hub, how popular wire wrapped jewelry is lately. Thank you so much for stopping by :0)
Very informational and interesting. I love wire art. I have a friend that uses wire to make jewelery, dragons, and so much more. I find it fascinating. Well written. I voted up, and useful. :)

Wow, these are some gorgeous pieces! I took a one-time class on making wire wrapped earrings...then managed to lose one of the earrings I made within a week - I was so bummed! But it was a fun class:)
