Pattern Description:

An adjustable ring, sparkly and glamorous, using only silver plated wire, metallic beads and bohemian crystals. It can be made in any wanted colors,any wires at hand.

I decided to post a tutorial for this ring, though directions can be difficult to follow, exactly the way I did.I'd rather say this is a free form ring, as it's based on curls,different sizes ,smaller or larger. It's up to you on how curls would look like, I am only telling you here the way I did these curls.Of course, curls may be made in any way,sizes ,appropriate to your finger's needs.
With 64 pictures and 9 steps all of them in 12 pages, I'm trying to let you all understand how I created this beautiful magical ring.
The directions illustrated in this tutorial might be difficult to follow,if you want to make a perfect copy of this ring. On the other side,using your imagination a bit, unleashing your creativity, loops and curls would not be a problem at all, and the final piece would be a personalized, gorgeous one.
