make a werewolf necklace copper wire bails

A great web site for buying supplies for making jewelry
www.artfire.com


you need
2 mm leather cord 3 yards

2 dark round beads with 2mm hole
copper wire
pliers
jump rings
wolf teeth
skull beads with 2mm hole
wood beads 2mm hole
wolf head pendant
about 9 inches of cotton cord black
4 bail connectors with 2mm hole
bead reamer

this photo shows a heavy wire i decided not to use it i used a smaller gauge for this project you will see it further down,

thread your leather cord through the hole of your center pendant make sure you have centered it on the leather cord, then use cotton cord to wrap it together at the top of the head tie it off in the back ( this is a little tricky, you need to use all of your fingers to hold everything together while wrapping the cord around, then  cut extra cotton cord off or if you want leave it long and add some extra beads or a few pentagram charms


























snip a piece of copper wire about 2 foot long double it up and twist it


after you twist your wire make a bail at one end wrap the wire around the pliers looping it about three times then twist together hide the end there are many ways to make a bail this is just one it is simple




Thread the wire through the hole in the tooth make sure your bail it at the top, loop it around it does not have to be perfect your going to cover it up anyway with extra copper wire
