Wire Flower and Gemstone Bead Bracelet

Tammy Powley
I created this bracelet to go with my Heart Throb necklace. It includes a combination of gemstone beads, carnelian and poppy jasper, along with sterling silver wire flower components. You just need to know some basic beading techniques as well as a little wire wrapping to create this jewelry piece.

To make the Wire Flower and Gemstone Bead Bracelet, you will need the following tools, supplies, and materials:

3 - 6mm Carnelian beads
3 - 6mm Poppy jasper beads
1 Sterling silver spring ring clasp
About 3 1/2 feet of 20-gauge Sterling silver round wire
Wire cutters
Chain-nosed pliers
Round-nosed pliers
Nylon-nosed pliers
