What to do with copper wire
This round copper wire lends itself to many techniques. It's particularly well-suited to wire wrapping: wrap it around a stone, bead or cabochon to create a gem pendant or ring. You can also use it to make wire bands, handmade rings or decorative elements to integrate into your montages. It goes well with other materials such as Seed beads, natural stones or silver wire, as in this bracelet with beads. The wire lettering technique is also an interesting option for forming initials or words to be integrated into a piece of jewelry.
