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.
