scarlet asked:
When i’m finishing up making a necklace (with wire) and putting the clasps on, what is a good technique to make the wire look neat, and also not have that little bit at the end that sticks out and pokes you?

I am trying to find some blank pendants with edges that i will customize (e.g. with printed paper) and fill with resin. Does anyone know where I can find a good selection of these and what exactly they’re called? I think a blank pewter pendant would be ideal. Thanks!
Um thanks, FHWPEG, but as much as I like fake Luis Vuitton, that really has nothing to do with my question??

I go to joannes or michaels but they don’t have ANY chains. Is there a store online or a place that sells them? (like good kinds–silver, gold, etc.) Or a store that sells cute charms online as well? Thanks in advance. ^_^

Lily V asked:
I am interested in making jewelry and especially in learning all about wire work. I saw a ‘wig jig’ apparatus online the other day, but I wasn’t sure what brand, type (metal or plastic) etc. I should buy. Can anyone suggest one that has worked good for them?

Also, do you know of any step by step books (with pictures) that will guide me through the basics? How about bead/jewelry magazine subscriptions…I want to subscribe to one that is intended for a beginner.
I am interested in making jewelry out of beads and “Wig Jig” design. I think…what does wig jig mean? I thought it was just a little peg board that you can use to wrap wire.
