The multi-strand wire twister from Beadalon is a great tool for adding texture to designs. The twisted wire creations can be used so many ways in jewelry. Cheri created simple twisted wire cuffs in all kinds of colors with help from Artbeads Designer Wire. See other ways for using twisted and coiled wire in your designs in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Cut three pieces of 18 gauge Artbeads Designer Wire about three times as long as you need for the finished cuff. You will need about six to eight inches of twisted wire for each cuff. Occasionally the wire will kink or it may break in the middle while you are twisting. We started with about a yard of wire per strand and made three cuffs with the finished piece of twisted wire.
Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
