Wire Bracelet
Spring/Summer 2011 Pantone Colour Palette Trend - Rain Forest

Step 1: Cut 15 pieces of 300 -
400 mm long stringing wire.
Use two colours. Clasp a crimp
about 70 mm from the end of
each wire.

Step 2: Thread on your wire

mix of seed beads and
interspace them with cut
crystal beads of various
shapes, sizes and colours. Use

crimps to leave free space on
some threads. End every wire
with crimp aprox 70 mm from
the end.

Step 3: Lay all strung wires
that end in crimps so that
they are lined up in the same
place. Cut the ends of all your
wires to make the same
length. Pass the loose ends
through the metal tubule and

push the tubule as close to
the crimps as possible.

Step 4: Take the ends of wires
and pass back through the

tubule to make a loap. Clasp
the tubule firmly. Do the same
with the other end of
bracelet.

Step 5: Cover the tubule by
wraping it with crafting wire.

You can use different colours
of the wire at each end of
bracelet if you wish.

Step 7: End the bracelet with
the big fantasy bead using

silicon cord.

DESIGNER´S TIP: This bracelet can be made in any colour combination you prefer. Mix
