Another design idea based on spanning the distance across the fingers along with including kinetic design in a ring can be found in one of Donna Kato’<\/a>s first spinner rings. These rings have an element that will actually twirl when you spin them. \u00a0In this one it’s obviously the central red bead but the striped lines and wavy edge\u00a0of the larger element already gives you a sense of movement. Plus this element wraps over both fingers to either side of the finger wearing it which would stabilize the large piece as well as make it really hard to miss!<\/p>\n

The engineering of new designs\u00a0is one of Donna’s favorite aspects of jewelry making. But of course, Donna is one of those people just brimming with ideas not just for designs but for products, classes and business as well. Besides her line of Kato products<\/a>, she is also the founder and one of the more prolific instructors at Craft Art Edu<\/a>. Her spinner ring designs have evolved since the appearance of this one here several years ago and now you can take advantage of her experimentation and perfecting of the design in her spinner ring class<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0Lucky you!<\/p>\n
