I have seen lots of pieces that have wire wrapping in conjunction with this FINGER SWIRLING and I love the way it looks, but not really sure just how it is done with just your fingers? Nicole Hanna seems to do a lot of pieces this way, but her pieces seem to hard for me to try. Can anyone please help me find anything on this technique?
Thank you
Sandi

Then I had to find a bead that fit nicely in that open space. I started wrapping the 24-gauge wire at the end nearer to the bail, because that was an easier spot to get to. This is a fun project if you don’t have preconceived notions of how you want it to turn out, and just go with the flow of the wire!
