I found a really cool way to shape my jewelry without using pliers. Instead of adding pressure to the wire by pushing the flat nose plier, I used common household items. For instance, I grabbed a flashlight which was laying in my garage and I just wrapped the wire around it. It took less than three seconds and then the wire formed into a perfect circle. My newest method is shown in the image that is provided. This is one of the new techniques that I've been working with which has improved the pace of my progress. I save way more time by doing this since the shape is already formed on the flashlight instead of making the shape. Last week I realized that the pace that I was going with was kind of slow so changing it up this week is super relieving. Some things that have bothered me is that I need to restock on beads because I bought some that didn't have holes in it. The beads without holes are pretty much useless since the wire wouldn't go through. This week was filled with very interesting things and using items from home to assist in my jewelry making was definitely a life saver. Overall, the project is going smoothly and I'm excited to see the outcome.
