Melinda's Jasper &Gunmetal Cuff Bracelet

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Mod, Casual, Hipster


Materials

Gunmetal Cuff, Hole Punch, 30-32 mm Jasper stone (or similar), 20 gauge copper wire

What was your inspiration?

My friend Melinda (OrrTec designs) makes components and showed a design similar to this. Hers were on links, my daughter suggested a cuff - this was my practice piece.

What are you most proud of?

I am proud of how secure the Jasper stone is.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Let the flow of wire be organic! Don't make it too uniform. Weave it in and out of itself to make it more secure and lay closer to the cuff.

Really cool and different! I like the contrast of the jasper color against the gunmetal!
