Chunky Wire Bracelet Recipe
Tribal and chunky just go hand-in-hand…big beads with lots of character deserve to be shown off! Wire-wrap a chain of funky and eclectic beads and let them speak for themselves.
There is no set formula for how many beads you will need, but keep these tips in mind:
-Try the bracelet on with each bead you add, seeing how many more links of beads you will need. Since each bead is a different size and shape, trying the bracelet on as you go is a must!
-The larger your beads are in girth, the longer the bracelet will need to be in order to accommodate their size.
