Copper Wire Ring

a shining ring made with copper wire and a big glass bead!
i love making big rings using anything i find... but just a few of them are actually wearable :) !!

for doing this one, first of all i shaped the wire to form a ring fitting to my finger (i usually use a big drawing pen... not so professional ;)!!)

then, i rolled the wire around half of the glass bead, hiding the tip below.

on the other half of the bead i shaped a spiral with the wire to bind it.

..DONE!! :)

if you could make a how-to, that would be excellent. i've tried and tried to do this but can never get my stone to stay in place.

I've been searching through all rings, what gauge did you take?

Or maybe someone else can help me out

I love using spirals in my designs but have not found any for a ring until now. Don't say not professional, pens, big blusher brushes are recommended as an alternative to ring mandrels why waste money. I love this ring, I will make it to wear to a birthday party next month. Keep up the good work!!
