This is a more advanced form of wire wrapping. You use several pieces of wire to create a one-of-a-kind pendant. I recommend making several single wire designs before using this technique. Practice using craft wire for the first few pendants in order to start building muscle memory and symmetry in your wraps.

These slides will give you hints and tips on how to make your pieces sparkle.
