This bangle bracelet is Stephanie's version of a classic wire wrapped bracelet design that has been around for many years. It uses a mix of half hard and dead soft 20-gauge silver wire, along with seven rectangular beads. It is a bit challenging, in that it requires you to be able to measure carefully and to keep the wires straight and under control. This project includes step-by-step photographs.
