Chainmaille, Chain Mail, Chain Maille

HECK! No matter the spelling or the name, it's all FUN just the same! This particular chain maille is called BIRD CAGE. My previous rope chain also chain maille pattern. There are so many different patterns and I am eager to learn more!

When life takes it's unexpected twists and turns, embrace them and make a bracelet!

This fun bracelet is made from 18 ga aluminum wire. The technique dates back to the ancient days of knights in shining armor. Great for MeN and WoMEn!

Thank you for visiting and seeing my latest work!

Silver Wrapped Bangle Bracelet

Really liked doing this project, A LOT. I will definitely do this again; especially after my nickel silver arrives.

I used the heavier craft wire and right after I finished, I noticed the base wire had broken at some point while working on the second side.

I also had problems with breaking wire during the coiling, but quickly learned how to attach a new wire.

Materials: Silver Bali beads, silver beads, cracked crystal beads, small silver lined crystal beads, 3 different gauge craft wires.
