This stunning handcrafted bracelet showcases a vintage-inspired design with wire-wrapped cabochons and suede straps. Here’s how it’s made:

Materials:

1. Wire: Copper or gold-colored wire (18-22 gauge for wrapping).
2. Cabochons: Round or oval stones or glass pieces for the centerpiece.
3. Suede Straps: Soft leather-like material for comfort and style.
4. Jewelry Findings:
   • S-hooks for clasps.
   • Jump rings for attachments.
5. Tools:
   • Round-nose pliers, chain-nose pliers, and wire cutters.

Steps:

1. Create the Wire Frame:
   • Use thicker wire to create a secure base around the cabochon.
   • Add swirls and decorative loops using finer wire.
2. Set the Cabochon:
   • Wrap the cabochon with wire, ensuring it is held firmly while adding artistic details like swirls or spirals for embellishment.
3. Attach Suede Straps:
   • Cut suede strips to size and attach them to the wire frame using jump rings.
4. Add the Clasp:
   • Secure the ends of the suede straps with findings and attach an S-hook clasp for closure.
5. Finishing Touches:
   • Polish the wire to enhance its shine and ensure all edges are smooth.
