Wire Wrapping

Wire wrapping is one of the oldest techniques used in the crafting of handmade jewelry. The technique goes back thousands of years, probably in part because it is so affordable and easy to learn. All you need to get started is a coil of wire, and two pairs of pliers: one for cutting, the other for bending. The art of wire wrapping involves using these tools to twist, bend, wrap, and shape wires into a beautiful ring, necklace, bracelet, or pair of earrings.
