Basic Wire Working & Findings Tutorial
My tutorial is ready! The description:
This tutorial was created to teach aspiring wireworkers the basic skills needed to accomplish virtually any wire project. It also teaches how to make an array of findings. This tutorial discusses:
Tools
Wires
Basic Forming Skills
Dangles
Links
Clasps
Bails
Ear Wires
Jump Rings
It is 41 pages long (including the Cover Page and Table of Contents) and features 87 large, full color photographs to clearly demonstrate the techniques.
To accomplish everything in the tutorial, you will need:
Wire
Round-nosed pliers
Chain-nosed pliers
Side-cutters
Metal file
Dowels or mandrels (for jump rings and ear wires)
Flat-nosed pliers are optional but very helpful as well.
Additional pictures (including ToC) are in my listing. You can see it on Artfire.
Thanks for looking!

Thanks Lea! I hope so! One reason I made it was because my mom just started making jewelry and has no clue what to do. Hopefully this will help people like her.

Theresa, I used the clasp tut last night and made my own clasp for a particular piece I've been working on! It came out perfect! Great instructions!

I just purchased this tut and it seems to be excellent for beginners like me. I am happy with the purchase. Thank you, Theresa! I wanted to leave you some feedback on Artfire but can't seem to figure out how. Anyways, I'm going to have some fun with wire!

Both your Etsy and Artfire say you're sold out of this tut! Can you post more? Please?

Sure Angie! I actually had my Artfire and Etsy shops closed temporarily. I just reopened my Artfire shop and relisted the tutorial; the link is in the first post and right here:

Thanks for your interest!!

Got it! You're quick, lol!
Lots and lots of pictures with just enough text to clarify things. Well done! Thank you so much. I'll be referring to this a lot, since jewelry-making really isn't my forte but it seems to be the only way my beads sell locally!

Hi Theresa, Just saw your tuts!! WOW..very nice. Could you tell me what stitch you are using for your necklaces? Some stitches are kinda hard to turn around for a leftie. Thanks.

Thanks Pat! The necklaces are Peyote & Russian Spiral. You shouldn't have any problems doing them left handed.
