Make Your Own Braided Wire Bracelet
Ranked #15,523 in Hobbies, Games & Toys, #240,208 overall
Braiding wire for jewelry making is not significantly more difficult than braiding string and is probably easier than braiding your own hair. Making jewelry out of braided wire requires learning how to wrap the ends so that the wire ends are covered and to provide a loop for connecting to your clasp.
