making wedding bands from wire

I love the process of turning a length of wire into a wedding ring. 

Here's a brief tour.....

cut length of wires according to the size of band

hammered, formed and ready to solder

after soldering, the rings need lots of filing and sanding

finished rings have a polished interior for comfort and patina

Right now I'm having a sale on my custom handmade wedding bands in my Etsy Store!  I can also sell them individually if you would like just one.  As always thanks for reading!

I'm thrilled and honored to be featured. It means the world to me to be recognized for my work. Its a huge vote of confidence that I'm doing something "right". Rarely do I know if I'm on the right track, but I just keep doing what I love to do and follow the ideas that keep pushing in my brain.

The ring pictured is just like the band I made for my Mom's recent marriage. Congrats to you both--Mom and Mr. Bill. I'm glad that she likes it!
