Letters A to Z
Wire Names and Wire Name Instructions
Preston Reuther Master Wire Sculptor

Wire names SELL!!!

Our wire name instructions are simple with our new streaming wire jewelry videos and cost less than a burger from McDonald's!  Wire name writing is a jewelry art that has been practiced since the late 1800s. You can make up to $1,000 a weekend at any craft fair, jewelry show, flea market or anywhere people gather. 

Complete wire name writing course on making wire name letters from A to Z.

PRACTICE WIRE NEEDED---21 gauge or 22 gauge round half hard brass or copper wire is best to practice with. After you learn to make your letters, you can use gold plated, gold filled or sterling silver wire.

When you buy your practice wire see if you can get a 100 foot roll it will be a little cheaper that way if its brass or copper. You can use square wire but its a little more difficult so you might want to start with round, your choice.

TOOLS NEEDED---Most of the tools needed are very inexpensive and you can start name bending for peanuts. Here are the tools you will need to get going.

  • Chain Nose Pliers--Must be jewelers pliers without serrated jaws.
  • Flat Nose Pliers--Jewelers pliers with the jaws slim and sleek. Don't get inferior pliers that are very thick and bulky it could harm your letter forming.
  • Round Nose Pliers--Jewelers pliers with a slim sleek nose. Not thick and bulky. For more info on these pliers check our wire jewelry forum.
  • Flush Cutter--This is a pliers that makes a smooth sharp cut rather then a jagged cut of a simple wire cutters. For this we recommend the Plato flush cutter or the Xuron cutter both can be obtained at any jewelry supply company.
  • 6 inch Steel Ruler--Simple Measuring Device for making jewelry.
  • Pin Vise--A small wire twister used to create a filigree effect on wire names and wire pins.

 

SUPPLIES NEEDED

  • Red Jewelers Rouge --You will need a hard bar of red jewelers rouge. It last a long time so get the small one it's very cheap.
  • Cotton cloth -- Any throw away cloth will work -- old T shirt or anything cotton -- this is to polish up your name pendants after you have made them.
