Jewelry-making Instructions
Coiled Bangle Bracelets
My instructions for Coiled Bangle Bracelets include over 20 photographs showing how to create a finished piece using your own sterling silver or colored copper wire, lampwork beads and other complementing beads. A list of the tools you will need is included. This is the same 8-page instruction booklet I have used in my workshops at Interweave Beadfest and in my favorite bead shop classes. Complete printed instructions with color photographs cost $25.00, including mailing within the Continental U.S.
