How to make wire wrap gemstone bracelet - the easy way!

DIY wire wrap gemstone bead bracelet tutorial

In this video tutorial, I will show you how to make a beautiful wire wrapped bead bracelet with step by step instructions. Suitable for the beginner with basic wire working skills.

The tutorial will show you how to form the individual links, how to wire wrap a gemstone bead, and how to link them all together. I'll also show you how to make a simple hook clasp for the final piece.

Materials you will need:

1mm (18g) bare copper wire, dead soft
0.4mm (26g) bare copper wire, dead soft
8mm gemstone beads
Flush cutters
Chain nose pliers
Six step bail making pliers
Ruler
Steel bench block
Jewellers (chasing) hammer

I really hope you enjoy making this gorgeous bracelet. You could make it longer, for a necklace, if you use 9 or 11 beaded links along with your chosen number of cotter pin links to go around the back of the neckline.

Have fun, and I'll see you soon for the next video
