A Simple Wire Ring

Step 3Completing the Swirl

Completing the Swirl
Then you just wrap a nice smooth arc around the initial center - sometimes it helps to press down on the center with the thumb of one hand and wrap the wire with the other hand (between your thumb and the mandrel). The nice thing about soft wire is it's pretty easy to get a nice smooth arc once you've done it a few times - you get the feel of how the wire will bend.

  • You can make your swirl a little wider by going around the ring again if you like - I like two wraps because it matches the double-wire band.
