Vintage Handmade Jewelry- Handmade Tulip Necklace with Multi-colored Copper Wire

What is vintage handmade jewelry? For me, vintage doesn’t only mean antique atmosphere and well-worn colors, but represent the dignity and elegance of an item after decades, especially with its unique metal smell. I think my unique tulip necklace handmade with copper wire can also replicate the same effect.

1.5mm gold alum wire

0.3mm light brown copper wire

0.3mm black copper wire

0.3mm green copper wire

Silvery chain

Jump ring

Flat nose plier

Wire cutter

Step 1: wire wrap tulip pendant

2nd, coil one end into small lollipop pattern that is the core part;

3rd, shape out flower and then wrap the working end behind flower;

4th, make stem and leaves.

Step 2: coil wires around tulip pendant with multiple colors
