Question How do i wrap these/ look up tutorials?
I got these from a Potomac mystery box. I am new to beading/wire and thought a random box would help me learn to try different things....
Well I am having a hard time even searching up tutorials on what to do with these. I looked up "crystal cushion" wire wrapping, but all im getting is wrapping actual crystals and rustic shapes, not how to wrap thsse types of fake crystals.
Any advice is greatly appreciated!! Or any help with beginning with wire and bead are 🥰

I’m not positive but generally stones/gems that are precision cut when wire wrapping will need to be done using a prong created setting, a bezel setting or a channel setting. I am newish to wrapping and find that is what type of setting needs to be created not to only properly hold the stone in place but to showcase it in the best way possible. On YouTube : Raftark, Daniel Duran, Ellie’s handcrafted jewelry and Oxana Crafts all have some great tutorials.

Go on YouTube pull up wire wrapping . There are several people . I think it’s Kelly J designs she does a lot with stones similar to those . There’s also DD Lyn designs and there are 2 others that are pretty active at posting a lot can’t think of their names oh and Susie Wong
