Simply make pendant of silver wire yourself

You can easily make these beautiful silver wire pendants yourself. There are no limits for the fanatasy.

For some time now, I have had a large amount of semi-precious stones at home that I have collected over the years. Amethysts, Aventurines, Onyxes, Rose Quartz and more. And at some point I thought, you should not just use it for decoration, but also something to do with it. So I came up with the idea with the chain trailers.

Step-by-Step Guide

Steps 1-3:

Picture 1) All you need is a stone that you like (I recommend to take a pre-drilled hole in the beginning) and silver wire. In this case I take a 0.6 mm diameter. You can get both easily in the craft supplies or on the Internet. You also need a pencil or similar. as well as a side cutter and a telephone pliers (to see in the pictures).


Picture 2) From the wire I cut 4 of the same pieces about 20 cm long (my stone is about 3 cm, for smaller stones a little shorter). These I thread through the hole in the stone.

Picture 3) From each 2 wires I bend the protruding ends to the right and left top, the others as well downwards.

The material: a stone that pleases you (I recommend to take a pre-drilled at the beginning) and silver wire, a pencil or similar. as well as a side cutter and a telephone tongs.Thread 4 of the same 20 cm long pieces of wire through the hole in the stone.From each of the two wires, push the protruding ends to the right and left above, and the others to turn them down.


Steps 4-6:

Picture 4) The two wires, which stand together, I twist each other into each other until about 2 cm from the end.

Picture 5) Twist the upstanding parts at the top of the stone, 2 turns.

Picture 6) Then twist the pencil in between and with one turn, then all under the pencil again, which you can then pull out. This creates the loop for the chain.


The two wires, which stand together, are turned into each other until about 2 cm before the end.Twist the upstanding parts at the top of the stone, 2 turns.Make a loop for the chain with the help of a pencil.

Steps 7-9:

Picture 7) I put the rest as well as the lower two ends to ornament around the stone and cross them so that they get some stability.

Picture 8) Finally, the telephone pliers are used. The single 8 wires that are left, I wrap with their help to small rosettes. Just pinch the tip and roll up. Press the rosettes a little bit and the unique is finished.

Picture 9) You can always create new patterns, there are no limits to your imagination.

Place the rest and the lower two ends around the stone for decoration.The individual 8 wires that are left, use the telephone pliers to turn small rosettes.You can always create new patterns, the imagination knows no bounds.

With undrilled stones, it's a bit more difficult, as you have to loop the wire to hold the stone, but with a bit of practice, that's pretty easy.

I tried to give the pictures a step-by-step guide and hope it has become reasonably understandable.

Have fun trying.
