As a relatively new creative endeavour to me, I decided to share my jewelry making journey starting today, at the exact moment I am now. Which is a bit of a fixation on making small simple flowers from wire. I love them – simple shapes, beautiful hammered elements for making earrings (currently) and bracelets (maybe soon). 

On jewelry making

I have a bit of an overwhelming problem when reading and watching all the tutorials and books on wire jewelry topics lately. I want to try them all. I want to make everything. And time is not enough. Time is never enough. I prefer working with wire, never have been enchanted by beads. Until now. Adding them can make a design much more interesting. Also, it turned out that I love natural gemstones – they’re not only beautiful but actually metaphorically magical. Looking closely at them you can sometimes differentiate structure of the crystals, shapes like clouds. Enough rambling, on to the flowers.

Simple wire flowers, type 1. Made of silver plated copper wire, brass wire and pure copper
Wire flowers, type 2 – Celtic style. Made after the fantastic tutorial at Regalia by Reiney

Jewelry with these flowers


I’ve made some earrings with the flowers featuring different stones. Like these:

Thanks for joining me on my journey. Until next time!

You can see the tutorials which I find useful plus a ton of inspiration at my Jewelry board at Pinterest.

I’m an artist, pharmacist, mother, geek, weirdo. Some of my designs are quirky and fun, some of them – creepy and dark, others – plain geeky.
