Simply Fiori




I made the wire flower pendant using 0.8mm silver plated wire, round-nosed pliers, chain-nosed pliers, cutters, glass and metal beads. For the beaded rope I used a selection of seed beads in 3 different colours and finished off with a lobster clasp and chain extension to make it adjustable.
Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!

Morena

Once again I had a go at making my own wire flowers using pliers and  this was the result. I used 0.8mm copper wire and round-nose pliers to create the petals and wrapped the centre with left over wire. I also used foiled, glass and metal beads and gold plated chain to make an extension.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Una vez mas traté de hace mis propias flores alambre con tenazas y este fue el resultado. Use alambre de 0.8mm de color cobre y tenazas de puntas redondas para crear los petalos y enrolle el alambre sobrante pra crear el centro de la flor. Tambien use cuentas de con fondo de aluminio, de vidrio y metalicas y cadena dorada para hacer un a extension.

CANDY CANE & FUNKY WIRE FLOWER





Some colourful jewelry I've made recently using candy cane glass beads, pink cord,ribbon and metalic beads. I just knotted the cord to hold the beads in place for the necklace and bracelet. I added bows on the bracelet to keep the strands of knotted candy canes in place.

Estas son las ultimas piezas de bisuteria que he hecho ultimamente usando perlitas candy cane, cordon rosado, cinta y piedritas metalicas. Simplemente anudé el cordon para sostener las piedras en el collar y pulsera. Le puse lazitos a la pulsera para mantener a las tiras anudadas con las piedras en su lugar.

Wire Flower


I made a small silver wire flower and used nylon to thread some beads and tied ribbon in between. Thank you for your comments.

SILVER FLOWER


I made this wire flower using round and flat nose pliers and 20 gauge/0.8mm silver wire. I used 30 cm of the wire. I started making a small look with the flat nose pliers and continue bending the wire using the flat nose ones. I also made the petals of the flower using the round nose pliers. Once I finished the flower I pierced some holes on the cardstock and sew it. I used my Fiskars corner punch for the edges and also added some beads threaded on a piece of ribbon a litle touch of sparkle. Finally added some printed ribbon with a colorful Happy Birthday greeting. Thank you for your comments!

Simplemente una tarjeta en la que use una de mis flores de alambre hechas a mano. Tambien use cinta y moztacillas. Gracias por sus comentarios!
