Materials

Materials to create a basic 7 -7 1/2 bracelet: I prefer GF wire, but youre welcome to use sterling or even copper hard or dead soft. Q=the best to use? A=Use what you have. 48 20g square wire 9 22g wire (square or round) 32 16-20g round wire (I prefer the heavier gauges in round wire, and hard for this project it forms crisper wraps) Minimum 12 6mm cube crystals Optional : 2, 4mm Bali spacers per crystal, if you dont use spacers, you will need to increase the number of crystals needed, by 2 or 3; 1 extra cube as a little helper.

Steps 12 through 16 show how to finish the ends - is that where you are having problems?

I feel a little stupid but how do I find your tutorials for these bracelets? They are lovely. I have experience in making wire bracelets, but I still need patterns if I want to approximate something I see. Thanks.

Please don't feel stupid, I'm still getting used to where links are too. just click on the title "Wire Wrapped Swarovski Crystal Bracelet" next to the orange bubble that says 'By Designer'. Please don't be shy if you have any other questions. Wrap happy, Bobbi
