In this video, I demonstrate how to make wire earrings using a WigJig Delphi peg board.  These boards make designing amazing looking jewelry, like the Celtic Knot earrings, very easy to do. This pair of earrings is much more detailed to make than the other earrings I make, but they are easy to make when broken down into steps.  You will learn how to wrap the wire into the knot design. You will need to make eye pins and also use head pins.

Materials Needed:

About 15″ of wire
2 head pins
2 light colour 4mm beads
6 dark 4mm beads (I use onyx)
2 French hooks

Tools Needed:

1 pair of round-nosed pliers
1 WigJig Delphi Jewelry Making Tool
Wire cutters
Chasing hammer (light and smooth-surfaced)
Anvil (or hard striking surface)
