Open Spirals are considerably harder to make and require even the most experienced jewelers to get frustrated.
Take you time and don’t be afraid to start over. I have found that startring over is easier than trying to fix the spirals.
If you practice with cheaper artistic wires, this won’t wind up costing you a lot of cash.
When you move into using precious metals, remember that you can anneal and straighten your wires if you make a mistake.
I hope you find this tutorial useful and have fun adding open spirals to your designs.
