This is my first bracelet ever. I wrapped it in brass with copper trim. The back ends of the bracelet cuff won't stay put. They keep moving out of line with each other. I did crimp them down. Oh well, first one. My kitty helped me with this photo. Darth Furrious. He has definately gone to the dark side.    And another bronze. The bronze color did rub off a little on the left hand side bottom cage wire, but you can't see it here.  and another denim lapis. In argentium silver.  Thanks for lookin everyone. Amy ;D |

I'd be proud to wear any of them, but I *really* love the bronze. I love the airborne curls, the way the metal accents the stone, and the overall "antique" quality.

All are very cool. I tried making a bracelet some months back... it was a total disaster! I've kept it in hopes that I can learn from my mistakes, but it also reminds me of how hard they are to make, and so haven't yet mustered the patience to try another.
I especially like the Lapis wrap. The wires flow so very well!
Kind Regards,
Bill

Great job on all of them. I agree with Bill, bracelets are hard. I've made a couple with beads and wire but haven't attempted a cab. May have to get brave sometime.
Hey, you must have wiped that paw before he helped you...not red...LOL.

Great Job on all, but I really love the lapis. I also use the bronze wire.
You have to be gentle with it, but I love the color.

Thanks for showing the bracelet Amy. Even though it's not perfect, it's nice to see these things for technique and design.
The other 2 wraps are very nice. I hate that when the color wears off the wire! I have some black colored copper, and it really shows when that rubs off.
