How to Make a Ring

How to make a delicate wire charm ring!

This is a cute ring that is my take on the dainty jewelry trend.

Use some wire, a head pin, a jump ring and a special bead to make your own delicate and dainty wire ring without the need for fire!

I think this ring looks great on its own, and stacked with other pieces you have in your jewelry box.

You’ll need these tools and materials to make this ring:

1: Pliers. I used my cutting and round nose pliers, but its always good to have your flat nose pliers on hand too.

2: Some wire. I used this 0.8mm thick gold-filled wire.

3: A jump ring that matches the colour of your wire.

5: A bead of your choice. I used this squashed round opalite bead.

6: A ring mandrel or something else round that is the size of the ring you want to make.

Follow these steps to make your own special dainty ring:

1: Bend one end of your wire to form a right angle.

2: Bend the right angle into a loop using the barrel of the round nose pliers.

3: Bend the wire around the ring mandrel.

4: Trim off any excess wire.

5: Bend the other side of the wire the same way you did in steps 1 and 2.

6: Link the ends of the wire together to form the ring loop.

7: Set the ring aside so you can work on the charm.

8: Add the bead to the head pin.

9: Loop the top of the head pin using the round nose pliers. This will secure the bead in place.

10: Attach the charm to the ring using the jump ring then close the jump ring to secure the charm in place.

Now your ring is finished and ready to wear! Will you make loads and stack them high on your finger or just wear one?

Here are some other rings you can make.
