Wirework bracelet with disc stone beads and coils

November 20, 2009 By: Valen Category: Bracelet


I started to play around more with wires, not just making hole pins, but coiling wires. This is a simple link bracelet made by connecting the coiled wire on each disc stone beads. Even the hook is made by making a loop at the end of the wire on the last bead. I didn’t come up with this idea myself, but from a tutorial that I downloaded from…. oops, can’t remember from which website! :P
