Free Jewelry 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 the design for the Figure 8 Dangle Earrings shown at right.   The earrings shown at right were made using the WigJig Delphi, although these earrings could be made on almost any WigJig.  These earrings use two 1/4" Super Pegs to make the larger loops in the wire component.  You can view instructions for making these earrings by selecting either the picture or the text at right.

Past Techniques:
We maintain a techniques web page that provides links to the discussion of techniques in our prior newsletters.  You can visit this web page here.  Follow the links on that page to the discussion of the technique in that newsletter. 
Jewelry Technique:
This weeks jewelry technique is the second installment in making letters in wire.  As we worked the designs for each letters we were to learn that our initial approach was not correct.  We also learned that the task of documenting the letters was more time consuming than we thought.  For this reason, we have completed the design for all 26 letters as a online book.  You can view this online book by selecting either the picture or the text at right.
