Filigree Christmas ornament - wire work tutorial

Filigree Christmas ornament - wire work tutorial

Hi Guys! In this tutorial I want to show you how to create wire filigree ornament (can also be a pendant or earrings) using undrilled diamond cut gemstones and wire (you can just use drilled beads instead if you don't have any or you are not comfortable with the technique. I will show you how to create the base shape, components and create the settings to secure your stones and how to finish your piece.
