Hi Guys,
in this tutorial, I will guide you through the process of creating a wire pendant featuring layered weaves. We will start by creating a frame and then seating the focal stone within it. Next, I’ll walk you through the steps to create and shape the intricate weaves that will enhance your pendant’s design. Finally, I’ll show you how to make a prong setting for the accent stone, bringing everything together to finish off your the pendant. Hope you like it! Leave a comment below if you have any questions. :)
