In this lesson you will learn to make a wire wrapped seed bead frame for a bead (the pendant in the first photo). Although this tutorial is made for a pendant, it can easily be adapted to make earrings, bracelet focals, and many other types of jewelry.

This lesson shows you how to make the exact pendant that is in the first sample photo (blue bead with copper wire). The other photos are example of way the basic frame design can be adapted for different types and styles of jewelry.
