Use Flat nose pliers with plastic/nylon jaws to clamp the weaving wire.

Practice makes perfect!

Nylon jaw chain nose pliers are a very useful tool for anyone who does a lot of wire working.

Use appropriate wire thickness.
I make jewelry of wire 1 mm (18 ga) wire for the frames and 0.4 mm (26 ga) thick wire for the weaving.
You can use wire with a thickness of 0.8 mm (20 ga) wire for the frames and 0.3 mm (28 ga) wire for the weaving.

Tension is important when weaving. Too tight and you will pull your frame wires out of shape, but too loose and your weaving will be uneven.

For my jewelry I use only natural wire (copper, nickel silver, bronze, brass, silver). I patinate jewelry with wire with special solutions and polish it with felt circles using polishing pastes. Sometimes, so that the wire does not darken over time, I coat the metal with a special varnish.

Do you love making wire jewelry as much as I do? I’ve been making jewelry from wire for nearly 15 years, and I didn’t want to keep this knowledge to myself, so I write wire jewelry tutorials sharing what I’ve learned.
I don’t speak much, I don’t like writing, I translate poorly into English. Sorry…
But, I take many detailed photos for you!
All jewelry I make made with my own hands for you with love.
