Wrapped Diamonds Bracelet Tutorial
Created by: Tiffany White
Designer Tips
Copper wire is a great way to learn wire wrapping techniques because it is affordable and easily manipulated.
To ensure your design in consistent for the entire bracelet, cut all the segments of wire the same length in advance.
Cut the wire into seven 6" segments.
Use the copper wire to make a wrapped loop, then string the bead on the wire. Make a wrapped loop on the other side, but instead of cutting the excess wire, use it to make a pretty swirl across the bead.
Assemble links together with jump rings.
Wait to antique the copper wire until the whole bracelet is assembled.
