How to wrap a small cabochon in the middle of a wire for jewelry

This is a great way to set your mini to micro cabochon in the center of a wire! After learning this wire-wrapping technique, you can create many things from it, including the Galaxyz Eye pendant on my Video page! I use this technique often when making simple wire-wrapped rings too! These are not beads with holes, this is a wire-wrapping technique for stones without holes. It will be the base of several upcoming video tutorials, so I hope you're inspired to learn it!

Hi Friends! I created Midway Station so that you could learn how to capture a small cabochon in the middle of a wire. From this position, you can use the wire ends, in various ways, to create many different pieces of jewelry. I've organized this playlist so that you can see the evolution of this technique. I hope you'll subscribe so you can be part of this exciting journey as I continue to add Midway Station Projects, moving into more complexity. The subscription is free and helps me to grow my channel. Thank you so much for being here!

Thanks so much for helping people like me change our lives. Also, yr the only person that I've seen have easy to follow tutorial in print split screen. Awesome because I can pause and still be able to follow along. Again. Thanks

this might finally be the design i've been so desperately looking for! i made some cabochons with glass decor for plant and nail polish and i want to use them (somehow, the how still quite clear in my mind) to embellish my junk journal, probably attaching them to the lace/ribbons I use to keep the journals closed, and I just couldn't find a way to make it work. I think this "clasping" in the back could work! :) TFS!

Thanks you are so darn helpful. I really appreciate it instead of doing the trial and error guessing game.

I love this ! What a fab technique for making a ring!

I am so thrilled to find you! I binge watched all your (well, mostly) videos last night. I love your process, your structure and mostly terms!!! Its so hard to ask for help when you don’t know how to articulate what your trying to do. If you ever come to Florida, i’d pay to have a session with you!

I've been trying to find a simple way to wrap a coin for a pendant.. after watching this I'm thinking that this way could work... what do you think ?

Hello there! Just wanted to thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us. I've learned so much from you.
I also have a question for you. I bought a lot of tiny little oval Ethiopian opals. Didn't realize they were quite so tiny when I bought them. Would this method work to capture a tiny oval cabachon? They're about 5mm×4mm in size. If not, what method would work best? I'm trying to add one or two to a crystal point I'm wrapping. Also, how do I join the membership?
TIA! 😊 -Christina

This is a beautiful setting, thank you for the detailed tutorial! I’m having a bit of trouble using it in a ring, do you maybe have some tips for that? As in, do I attach the setting as is to a ring band or should I form the band from the same wire? I can’t quite get my head around it….

Do you have a rule of thumb for pairing wire gauge with stone size?
