How to wire wrap a flat, round cabochon help please?

[SavoyFaire]

I am trying to wrap a round, flat, cabochon stone (non-drilled) with wire and end up with a loop to hang by at the top. Help please?
I don't mind if wire goes across the front and whatnot and I can't do anything fancy.

I also need help with wire-wrapping... I have a flat circular pin that I would like to turn into a pendant. If someone could point me in the same direction as the original poster... The difference is that my pin is very flat. If anybody could post a link to a tutorial or something.... thanks!!

& original poster-- I will keep searching for an answer!! :)

I have one of nixcrations wire wrap dvds and it is very good. http://www.etsy.com/listing/70400024/instructional-wire-wrap-polymer-clay
Maybe he has one for a flat cabochon.

Thanks halfmoonroad I'll try #2. Wish it was visual though as I can't understand the other two. lol

Have you tried googling tuts? I've found a lot of wire wrapping things that way! Some really good videos.

Yes Anna and they were the really fancy wrapping style but maybe I'll try "simple wire wrapping" or something. Thanks!
