How to make a beautiful ring? - Getting ready for creative work

How to make a ring with your own hands at home using only available materials? Yes Easy!

Before starting to work with the selected materials:

  • First, decide which ring you want.
  • Now we need to determine the size of the future ring. To do this, you need to take a strip of paper and wrap it with the finger on which you plan to wear the ring.

Important! If you already have a ring for this finger, then use its size in making a new ring - this is the easiest way.

  • Now, using a pen or pencil, make a mark at the intersection of one edge with the other.
  • Cut off the excess paper and get the desired size for the ring.

Important! You can simply measure the band - this will be the size of the new ring. The same strip can be used as a template to measure the prepared materials.

Wire ring

Next, we will tell you how to make a ring with your own hands using wire. Wire is the most common material for making rings with your own hands. Remember how in childhood we twisted wire roses and wore them like the most expensive decoration? Copper wire is quite affordable and durable, and at the same time multifunctional. It can be used for any kind of weaving: braids, hearts and many other shapes.

Important! If you have no experience in weaving wire rings, then first practice on simple elements, and then you can start creating a complex composition.

This is one of the most simple ways, which any needlewoman can handle. To make a wire ring, you will need the following materials and tools:

  • An interesting button or natural stone.
  • Soft wire.
  • Nippers.
  • Round nose pliers.
  • A piece of tube in the shape of a cone.

Procedure for making a wire ring:

  • First you need to fix the stone on the wire. If you are using a bead, then just thread the wire through it.

Important! The stone can be painted using a spray paint can. To do this, you need to put a pebble on a piece of paper and point the spray at it. After complete drying, turn the stone over and process it on the other side in the same way.

  • After - using nippers, bend the wire back, attach it to the tapered tube.
  • We wrap the entire conical tube with wire several times.
  • Next, we firmly squeeze all the turns of the wire, and bend its ends up and down.
  • We remove the finished workpiece with the tube and the ends of the wire, fix the turns from the sides of the central stone or bead.
  • We wrap the whole ring with the ends of the wire, about 3-5 times.

Important! Make sure that the threads fit snugly against each other.

  • At the end of the work, cut off the excess wire using round-nose pliers, fasten all the connected turns to give a flat shape.

Important! Remember that aluminum breaks down quickly, so if you took just such a wire, when creating turns of different shapes, you need to be extremely careful and attentive.

Ring of pins

Don't believe that you can make a ring out of pins with your own hands? You are very wrong. This material can be beneficially used in such an interesting lesson. How? We will tell you everything further.

For work we need:

  • Pins.
  • Beads.
  • Elastic thin elastic band.
  • Small link chain.

So let's start creating an 80s style ring using pins:

  1. To begin with, we take a pin and string beads on it. The number of beads is at your discretion.
  2. We pass two thin elastic bands through both ends of the pin.
  3. Now we take the next pin and use the same method to put it on an elastic band, only its head should look in the opposite direction.
  4. Doing the same manipulations, alternate the pins in turn until the desired circle is obtained.
  5. At the end of the work, we tighten the elastic and fix it, hiding all the knots.

Satin Ribbon Ring

Before starting work, you must prepare the following materials and tools:

  • Medium width satin ribbon.
  • Thick wire for the base of the ring.
  • Pliers.
  • Scissors.
  • Nippers.
  • Needle with thread.
  • Glue gun.
  • Glue.

Described below step by step process for making a ring from a tape:

  • First of all, we measure the required length of the wire, and cut off the excess with wire cutters.

Important! In order for the future ring to be strong enough, we recommend making a few turns with the tape. You can multiply the girth of your finger by 3 and get the required piece of satin ribbon.

  • Now just wrap your finger with wire using pliers. Thus, we get the basis of the future ring.

Important! In this case, you can take a size cone, as it is much faster and more convenient.

  • We take satin ribbon and using a glue gun, discreetly attach to the edges of the wire. We begin to wrap the whole ring with tape.

Important! Care must be taken to ensure that the tape is tight enough to the wire when wrapping around the circle.

  • When the tape is wound around the ring, we cut off the excess material, and then we fix the end with glue.
  • Next, cut off a piece from the tape, about 10-15 cm and burn the ends with fire.

Important! To prevent the edges of the tape from falling off, you can heat the scissors with fire before cutting.

  • We form a bow from the ribbon, and fix the middle with stitches.
  • We glue the bow to the base (where the end of the tape is glued).

Coin ring

It is possible to make a ring from a coin, but it is a rather complicated and time-consuming process. You can ask for help a person who has the skills to work with metal products.

In order to start making a ring with your own hands using a coin, you need to prepare the following materials:

  • Drill.
  • Fine grit sandpaper.
  • Coin.
  • A small piece of metal.
  • Hammer.
  • Soft fabric.
  • Steel spoon.
  • Emery roller.
  • Polishing wheel.
  • Clip for decoration.

Now let's get to work:

  • At the first stage, we take a coin, place it on its edge and place it on a metal base.
  • We press the base with a teaspoon.
  • Then we do painstaking work. Take a hammer and knock on a teaspoon until the coin is flat.

Important! Constantly monitor the process of flattening the teaspoon. Try to hit the coin with the same force for the smoothest edge possible.

  • Then with a drill we make a hole in the very center of the coin. When you drill through, the coin will be securely fastened.
  • Now sand the edge of the coin with sandpaper until the surface is shiny.
  • Next, using a drill, we increase the hole in the circle. We constantly change the drill to a larger one until the required circle for the future product is obtained.

Important! When you shape the size of the jewelry, constantly try on it so that in the end the ring does not turn out to be large.

  • Use an emery roller to polish the inside of the ring.

Important! If desired, engraving can be made on the ring, but for this you need to contact a specialist.

Button ring

If you don't have a suitable ring base, then you can buy one at a jewelry making store. On such a basis you can attach different materials: button, stone, plastic, shell and other materials. V in this case we will tell you how to make an original ring from long-forgotten buttons and a piece of fabric.

For work we need the following materials and tools:

  • Round piece of black felt (diameter 5 cm).
  • Bright buttons.
  • Superglue or glue gun.
  • The base for the ring.
  • Jewelry pliers.
  • Scissors.

Getting started:

  • If there are loops on the button, then remove them with pliers.
  • Next, we glue the buttons on a piece of felt according to the scheme: from the center to the edge of the circle.

Important! Buttons must be darkly fastened to the felt in such a way that in the end it turns out round form.

  • After the glue has completely dried, cut off the excess felt from the sides with a straight or zigzag line.
  • We coat the base well with glue.
  • We glue the previously made fabric with buttons on the base.
  • We are waiting for the finished ring to dry completely and rejoice in the new thing.

The ring with your own hands is ready at home!

Beaded ring

Let's start making a ring from beads and beads:

  • First you need to measure the size of the future ring. To do this, multiply the girth of the finger by 3 or 4 and add 2 cm.
  • Cut the resulting length from the copper wire.
  • Next, string the beads onto the wire.

Important! Please note that 1 cm should remain from each end of the wire. The edges of the wire must be sealed with glue so that the beads do not crumble.

  • We wrap with wire with beads around the finger or use a dimensional cone. We bend the remaining ends - we will need them later to secure the ring.
  • Now we start making the ring. We take the wire and cut off three pieces 2-3 cm long.
  • We string two beads on each piece. We bend the ends of the wire so that the beads do not roll.
  • After that, we bend all three parts in half, that a depression is formed in the center, arrange the beads at the ends of the wire.
  • In the recess we place the previously prepared base by passing parts of the wire through it.

Important! Do not forget that the folded edges of the wire should be located only near the ring.

  • Now we bend the pieces of wire so that the beads fit tightly to each other.
  • We twist all the ends of the wire so that the beads are on top.
  • With the ends that were previously bent, we finally fix the ring.

Important! When making a ring from beads, you can use different options execution: weaving in one or several rows, combine beads with other materials. Feel free to experiment and you will succeed!

The list of materials required to create a leather ring:

  • Leather lace in any color.
  • Wire.
  • Pliers.
  • The base for the ring.

Important! The base can be of different thicknesses, since after the entire manufacturing process it will be possible to adjust the size by simply moving the wire spiral.

Let's take a closer look at all the stages:

  1. First, we wind the wire onto the base, make a few turns, stretching the irregularities.
  2. After - we cut off the ends of the wire, and in order that they do not prick, we bend them into loops.
  3. Now we take a leather cord and begin to weave in the form of a spiral along the entire base of the ring, passing the end of the leather first above the wire, then below, constantly alternating. We repeat this procedure in the opposite direction.
  4. We continue to weave until the entire base of the ring is wrapped in a leather cord.
  5. After all the procedures, we cut the lace and hide the tip under the loop.

Chain ring

What can you make a finger ring from? Have you ever thought of a chain? But in vain. A beautiful and delicate ring can be made from a chain. Almost everyone has a broken chain that cannot be repaired, but it is a pity to throw it away.

Let's move on to the photo report? ;)

The workshop is located at the growing Kristall plant. Since it was already getting dark, it was raining and I was late, I didn't take pictures of it. But it is very atmospheric, so I illustrate the story with a photo from the Internet:

The plant is located near Yauza, across the river from Winzavod and Artpley. Now, when I was looking for a photo, I saw that the plant would be reconstructed: they plan to create a pleasant public space with cafes, shops, creative offices and more. Already last summer fairs and festivals were held there, a lot of people visited the new place. Concept and appearance resemble the Flacon design plant, don't they? Competition! :)

But about the factory another time, I want to return there when the weather is better to explore a new hangout place;) And now let's return to the master class that took place in the creative workshop. It is combined with a small but pretty photo studio, so there are many cameras of varying degrees of vintage, paintings and paint-stained easels. Atmospheric place!

It looks like workplace jeweler - nothing luxurious, and in fact not only silver, but also gold and precious stones are processed here. Below is a pedal for a sander.

First, we took a small amount of silver and melted it.

After that, the molten mass was poured into a mold, where it froze, but not firmly. In general, silver is a rather malleable metal and you can work with it for some time without new melting.

Having cooled the resulting "sausage" in cold water, we moved on to running in. It takes place in two stages: first you need to set the width of the ring (right side of the machine), and then - the thickness (left side). You insert the sausage into the opening, turn the handle and it crawls through the opening. The run-in takes place gradually, for each of the stages there are about 30 spins. That is, you cannot immediately take and flatten the metal in one scroll - then it will crack and you will have to start over.

During the last scrolling, it was possible to print some pattern on the metal (it is still soft, remember?). I was offered a piece of lace, something else - I chose a leaf, because quite recently I got a ring in the form of a twig, and I decided to make this ring for a phalanx. It turned out to be such an eco-theme :)

After that, using a thread, I measured the circumference of the finger and cut off the required amount. It was difficult, because the jigsaw must be kept strictly vertical and make sure that it does not "move" to the side. Here I was helped as this important stage- the saw cuts must be perfectly even in order to connect later.

Then a ring is formed from the strip around the cone-shaped stick using a soft mallet. I am very focused and tense :)

Now it's time to bleach the silver in acid to restore its original color - it darkens after being melted.

Next step: sanding in several ways. First, the side edges of the ring are sanded with emery paper.

Then the outer and inner side with sandpaper rolled into a drill. The ring must be held tightly, otherwise it can fly out into the eye. And this is not so easy, because it vibrates strongly under the influence of the drill - it flew away a couple of times, so I preferred to photograph this stage :)

After that, the ring goes through the last stage of grinding on a machine with a fast spinning rubber "wheel". From quick friction, the ring instantly heats up and after each touch of the "wheel" it must be immersed in cold water.

That's it, the ring is ready! It remains only to clean it in an ultrasonic bath - leave it there for 10 minutes. You can rest and wipe the sweat of zeal from your forehead :)

And here is the result!

An indescribable feeling when you yourself do some thing: now I wear this ring without taking it off - here it is, the power of hand-made. So I advise you to go to the master class, it is not at all expensive. Or an option for guys: buy a certificate for MK and give it on February 14 or March 8;)

The size of a necklace depends a lot on the size of the individual beads, so if you want a thicker piece of jewelry, choose a larger bead. It is difficult to say how many beads you may need, but it is better to take with a margin.

2) You should be able to 6 strands of beads, of which you need to make 3 pairs, connecting the ends of two threads and securing along the edges with calottes. Make sure the knot is tied as close to the beads as possible so they won't dangle. Cut off the excess thread.



3) Connect 3 pairs of strands to the chain with a ring, then do the same with the other ends.



Advice: before connecting the other ends of the beads to the chain, braid them into a braid to create a weave effect.



4) The chain must first be split into 2 parts depending on the desired length and connect both ends with the clasp.



5) As a result, you should have a necklace like this:

Many people love to decorate their fingers, and now you can find rings for every taste on store shelves. But you and I know that in things made with our own hands, there is a very special magic.

In this master class, I suggest you make a laconic but cute ring using the wire wrap technique. Wire wrap literally means "twisting the wire" and combines various techniques for creating jewelry from unpretentious, like our ringlet, to very complex and confusing in the literal sense of the word. This direction is now actively gaining momentum, although it has not yet acquired a generally accepted Russian name.

So, for the production of a ringlet we need:

  • file
  • platypuses, it is desirable that they are smooth at the ends, then they will not damage the wire
  • wire cutters
  • a cylindrical object with a slightly diameter more finger(in my case, the marker was perfect)
  • a piece of copper wire about half a meter long and about 0.8 mm in diameter (generally speaking, you can take any wire, as long as it is soft enough: brass, ordinary knitting or special from stores with accessories)

Making a ring from twisted wire

First, we take our improvised crossbar (that is, a cylindrical object) and tightly wind the wire around it three times. In this case, you need to ensure that as a result of this operation, the "tails" are approximately the same length. After winding, the "tails" need to be intertwined, pulling the wire quite tightly.

Now we begin to form the "whirlpool" itself. We align the turns so that they lie parallel and fit closely to each other, then we twist the ends of the wire even more.

We continue to twist, holding on top with your finger, so that the "whirlpool" is flat. This requires some skill and may not work out right away, but we do not retreat before difficulties!

When the whirlpool grows to the right size, leave the free ends perpendicular to the rim of the ring.

Remove the ring from our cylindrical object and start wrapping the "tails" of the wire around the rim.

Be sure to squeeze each turn with platypuses, but carefully and gently so as not to leave dents on the wire.

When three lines are typed, the ends of the wire must be cut with wire cutters. We leave only very short pieces, about the width of the ring rim, and process them with natfil so as not to prick our finger. We approach this task responsibly and smooth the tips to a round state.

We fold these rounded "tails" with platypuses on the inside of the rim and press down well.

This is how it should look from the inside out. If the "whirlpool" turned out to be too convex in your opinion, you can also tighten it with platypuses. But be careful! It is very easy to scratch the wire.

So the ring is ready. You can try on! And wear it with pleasure.
Generally speaking, it should be patched and polished to give it a more complete look. But this is an extensive topic and, perhaps, for a separate master class.
