Design: With every newsletter we provide a new jewelry design from WigJig University to spur the creative juices. The new design for this newsletter is design for the 4 Dangle Earrings shown at right. These were made on our new WigJig Centaur, but we also provide patterns for making these earrings on any clear WigJig jewelry making jig. The combination of the Swarovski Crystal beads with the silver lined bugle beads in the bead dangles seems to be very popular. This is an advanced beginner's jewelry making project. Select here to view our instructions for making these 4 Dangle Earrings with Beads. |

Jewelry Technique: This weeks jewelry technique is a discussion of some common mistakes and what can be done to avoid them. We show pictures of common mistakes like using the sharp end of cut wire, or not closing a loop completely as shown at right. For both of the example pictures shown at right, the proper loop should appear as shown below. Included in this discussion are problems like the wire component springing apart when removed from the jig and other common problems. To view our pages of discussion on common mistakes select either picture or the text at right.
