Description WARNING: HUGE IMAGE.

I'M NOT MAKING ANY MORE TUTORIALS. Dx I'm so bad at them!

but, um. ~yuukai asked me to make this one. Blame him~. <3


The tutorial shows how to make a copy of this ring: [link]


NOTES:
- Elle is not an expert chainmailler personthing, and does not claim to be. I just like shiny things. hee.
- Sorry for the lousy photos. My camera was being moody. And the room's kinda dark. ;;;;
- Doodad is totally a professional word. Shut up. D:
- My mum's gonna kill me for using all of her jump rings.


If you've any questions or comments, please... er, comment! :3

A few dollars, I guess? Depends on where you get them and their finish. Pliers can't be that pricey. They sell little, like, sets? for $15 or so at the place I shop. Just go to a craft shop and wander the beadwork/wires aisle(s), read packaging, whatever. aheh.

TheElle In reply to blacklight12 [2012-06-21 17:18:20 +0000 UTC]

Sorry for the slow delay. ;;
I want to say the outside diameter of the small rings was ~1/8 inch and the larger, maybe 3/16?? Those are reeaaallly badly estimated. I don't have them any longer. >:

This is a nice idea, and you can experiment with the technique for making other jewelry. Awesome!

Your ear cuffs are cute. :3 I use rings, though, so I don't actually bend wires. :sweat:
