The bracelet in this tutorial is my personal favorite. Although the techniques are basically the same the, tutorial shows you how to make 2 totally different bracelets - so you actually get 2 TUTORIALS IN ONE PURCHASE. The materials listed are for the primary design, the Crystal bracelet, but materials for the second bracelet are listed in the tutorial itself.
I've listed this tutorial as intermediate, but I've had many, many beginner wire wrappers take a bash at this, with wonderful success.

Material List:
  • Materials to create a basic 7 -7 1/2” bracelet: I prefer GF wire but you’re welcome to use sterling or even copper – ½ hard or dead soft
  • 48” 20g square wire
  • 9” 22g wire (square or round)
  • 32” 16-20g ½ round wire (I prefer the heavier gauges in ½ round wire and ½ hard for this project – it forms crisper wraps)
  • Minimum 12 6mm cube crystals
  • Optional: 2 4mm Bali spacers per crystal
Tool List:
  • wire cutters
  • ruler
  • flat-nose pliers
  • round nose pliers
  • large round dowel or something similar for forming - optional: tape
  • Sharpie marker
  • cleaning cloth.
