  1. Attach the 5cm strip of wire on either side
    of the pendant pushing the claws into the
    clay. Use two jumprings as shown as a design
    feature. Finally add a coordinating bead and
    jumpring ready to add a chain.


Scribble wire pendant (opposite, middle right)


  1. This is a perfect design for wirework
    beginners. Use 0.6mm wire to wrap around the
    pendant making sure it is secure, but don’t worry
    about symmetry. When you are happy with this,
    twist both wires together and use round nose
    pliers to make a loop. Add a jumpring ready for a
    chain and two short lengths of chain with beads
    attached to add movement.


Silver nest brooch


  1. Carefully wrap 0.6mm wire around the
    pebble and backing design completed in Step 2.
    To neaten the fi nal end of wire, twist into a coil
    and add a fl at-backed bead in the centre. Glue a
    brooch pin to the back. This design can be used
    as a pendant; just feed a chain through the pin.

  2. Using a length of chain for each pendant,
    feed a jumpring onto each end. On one side
    add a 5cm length of extender chain and on
    the other add a clasp. Attach a bead to the end
    of the extender chain by threading it onto a
    headpin. Cut the pin approx. 1cm in length,
    then use round nose pliers to form a loop.
    Attach directly onto the extender chain.
