DOUBLE LOOP EYE WRAPS WITH SPIRAL CAPS

Sorry this image is so dark - I did pull it into PSPX3 and lightened it but that image is stuck on my computer. This image is straight off my iPad mini.

I purchased a new book the other day off Amazon.com, and it has a whole bunch of new wiring ideas in it.  So I have been playing with my Copper/Fine Silver wire.  I love these DOUBLE LOOP EYE WRAPS WITH SPIRAL CAPS.

There have been many times I wanted something simple, like this, but didn't have anything on hand.  So I think this is going to be my "Go To" for a while.

Stay tuned cuz in a day or two, I am going to do a Book Review on MAKING WIRE & BEAD JEWELRY by Janice Berkebile & Tracy Stanley.

Name Correction

In my previous post, I referred to Nikki Hanna Jewelry.    This is incorrect!!!  My appologies!

It should be:  Nichole Hanna Jewelry.

Thanks to Nikki Hanna Jewelry for this great tutorial!!! 

I used copper wire that is coated with .999 silver.  Now all I have to do is make up my mind if I want to oxidize this or leave it shiny.  Any input will be greatly appreciated.

There are a couple of "Oops" in here - I started doing this when I came home from knee surgery and still on drugs.  They are minor, but still there nun the less. Guess this one will have to be mine.
