DIY Wire Spiral Maker

[@dianebushby2510]

Honestly if you saw how much wire I have used trying to even get 1 open spiral to work you would be shocked...I wished I had found this spiral tutorial earlier...I have looked at so many other tutorials and could never get any of them to work....you have no idea how happy i am that on my first go I had an open spiral thank you so much Heather for sharing this!

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Wow Diane. Thank you for your incredible feedback. You totally made my day. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions about wire art and jewelry making and share pics of your work on Facebook in the Wire Makers Club. I'd love it if you emailed me a pic of your spiral so I can share to inspire others! THANK YOU.

This is brilliant! I have spent hours trying to perfect the spiral and now realize I could have spent far less time. This is why out of all the wire artists out there, you are my favorite. Not only do you have clever ideas but you are able to show others how to do them without a lot of confusion. I am going to try this tonight. Thanks for sharing!

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thank you for your amazing feedback. I really appreciate you taking the time to tell me. Have fun with the spirals! Heather

Sweet Octavia. I'm so happy it helps.

[@JoyceLlorens-tw3ex]

A terrific idea but I’m just curious into how will the artistic wire with a copper center hold it shape if you’re using it for some thing like pendants thank you enjoyed it

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You can use a thick 18g wire and work harden it with a mallet for a stronger spiral. Good luck!

[@karenlusby6230]

Thank you! I so enjoyed and learned from your video.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You are very welcome. Thanks so much for watching!

That's so awesome! Thanks for telling me Tish. Big hug.

[@aburg6393]

Thank you - great tips!

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You are very welcome!

[@janetdegenhardt5999]

Wow! This has got me thinking about other uses for the polymer clay. Do you think one could make shapes for a jig with the clay and then screw them onto a board? This would allow me to make some ovals and/or shapes with sharper corners.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

That would probably work. You would need the nails for sharper bends. I have made jigs where I add buttons and beads to make larger shapes. I'll try to work on some ideas with the clay and get back to you ASAP. Great idea!

[@ermelindagarcia8119]

I time making photos wire holders just had a hard time since I had never made one can you use this double circle for photos

[@HeatherBoydWire]

I have a spiral photo holder tutorial here using this cone method! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mH-lg5yarpuKr6c

[@noraokada8665]

Excelente! Muchas gracias❤

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Gracias!

[@ashadominicafernandes461]

Awesome Mam. Which guage wire you have used. Pls let me know. Thankyou. God bless. Tkcare.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Hi Asha: I mostly use 20 gauge wire.

[@ashadominicafernandes461]

What is the length of wire you have taken . Pls let me know. Thankyou.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You can use an 8-10 inch piece of wire for the spiral.

[@gerrimartin4942]

What is the stuff called that you pushed the cones into?

[@HeatherBoydWire]

It's modelling clay. You can use Fimo or Sculpey. Good luck

[@myway2653]

Thanks, I like the hack.
