Bead Wrapped Heart Earrings Tutorial
I have another tutorial again and this time it's making wire heart earrings ♥ Wit the same steps you can also make pendants and charms. All you have to do is make the heart shape bigger.
Cut about 9cm wire and make a loop at the center with a round nose pliers. Bend the wires up, making sure the wires are of the same length.
Then with a round object, in this case I used a pliers' handle make a curve by bending the wire downward. Do the same for the other wire.
After bending the wires you'll see that is starts to shape into a heart. Adjust the wires, if needed and then make a loop at both ends.
Then fill the heart with bicones. You can also use round beads if you like. With a thinner wire, first wrap the heart frame at least 2x and then slide in a bicone and then wrap again.
Continue wrapping until you fill the heart frame with bicones.
Then with the extra wire slide in a bigger round bead and wrap the other end onto the heart frame to secure it. Cut off excess wires.
Make one more heart with the same steps and attach your ear wires. Voila! You've made yourself a bead wrapped heart earrings ♥ Hope you like the design. It's really cute!
