Butterfly Ring

Butterfly Ring.

I am using 20 gauge soft wire in two colors, gold and copper. My tools are metal cutters, players and wire curlers.

Instead of a ring mandrel, I used a highliter to wrap my ring. I made sure to leave an inch on each side for the antennas.

Push the excess wires up to form the antennas.

Add two wires measuring four and a half inches for wings. The top wire should be longer than the bottom wire. Add a third wire to assemble the ring and form the body.

Using the wire curler, curl bottom portion of wire forming lower wings, then curl upper wire forming upper wing, and finally slightly curl the wires forming the antennas.

Make a whole bunch of them.

Just in case the instructions were hard to follow.
