Mini heart lock pendant with small heart cabochon stones - can be used as pendants, earrings or decorative bracelets, anklet - How to make handmade jewelry from copper wire by Lan Anh Handmade
The length and diameter of the wire depend on the stone you want to make. The length of the wire used can be calculated by multiplying the ratio of the stone
You can do the same with other stone shapes like oval, round, drop shape with different sizes. But most suitable is heart cabochon with a diameter of 0,5cm - 1.5cm
You can use any type of wire or wire size you have. Smaller diameter wires are easier to handle, but they are less durable than larger wires. The most suitable is a wire with a diameter of 0.6 - 0.8mm
A little change (wire size, how to bend wire, how to stone beads combination) you will produce different products

In the video I use :
22 gauge ( wire diameter 0,6mm ) : 8cm( 3 inch)
28 gauge ( wire diameter 0.3mm ) : 8cm( 3 inch)


TIPS :
- Before doing, Always be sure to straighten the wire for a more beautiful product
- Can use a towel to straighten the wire.
- Refer to how to straighten the wire here https://youtu.be/OXAECMVcOe4
- Refer to how to make eye clasp here https://youtu.be/hM1lZa0XzDc
- Can be replaced with silver wire or gold wire for jewelry more valuable
Or simply use cheap material like copper wire to make gifts for friends, family or for yourself
- I just give way reference, not the best way. Can change size wire to suit your purpose. You can do better than me.
- I bought all the material and stones in where I live (Vietnam)
I used to round copper wire - magnet wire , it's the only kind I found where I lived for many sizes. I do not know exactly what type it was, can be normal copper wire, it have plating layer, and not dark by time
