I've always looked up to Rena Klingenberg, her advice to jewelry designers/makers is spot on correct. She also is a very creative person and her adjustable ring proves that point beautifully.
ReplyDeleteEven though I tend to be all thumbs when it comes to wire work, I think I could probably make this ring without too much trouble.
Thank you Pearl for this tutorial and I ended up visiting the other ring tutorials that were listed at the end of your post. (Love the 8 loop ring base tut of Ornamentea - it made a really pretty ring).
Rena has some awesome ideas for sure!
ReplyDeleteAnd the other tutorials I do link to will help too. ;-)
