I can't believe I first watched this video 3 years ago. I've been bangling it up ever since. 😉
I can't believe it's been 5 years since I made this video. Glad it's been so helpful for you over the years!
Oooh my goodness yessss! I cannot wait to start making these...my daughter swears by them!!!
I am sure she would appreciate that. Thanks for watching. Happy crafting!
Anyone in 2020 🤣🤣
Makiyah Thornton me!

I wanted to start making charm bracelets and I didn’t know how to make an expandable one. Thx to your vid I know how to do this perfectly fine
I love you, great explanation. I'll be redoing all of my bangles your video gives clear direction. Thankyou so much.
Thanks for your kind words! Glad we could help!
As soon as I saw it I didn’t even need to see the video. I already knew what to do. But I’m glad I did anyways
Oh wow never thought this could be made I only see ppl buy them but they tarnish etc this will be better
Thank you very much.
Very well explained.
God bless you.
Thanks Benancia! 💖
You are a great teacher. Thank U !
Wouldn't this requiring annealing of some kind in order that the bangle doesn't lose its shape when it is worn?
May I know what is the difference between this Craft Wire you have used and the Artistic Wire18 Gauge? I have tried numerous times using artistic wire to make this bracelet, followed every step in slow motion as well, but I cant seem to get the same result as you do. Please advise? =)
This is the best video I've seen on making an expandable bangle. Thank you!
Are you able to add beads and charms to it after it’s been wrapped on the Jigue or do you do that before
We've found it easiest to add the beads before wrapping the wire to the jig, we've got a video on that technique here: ua-cam.com/video/0ND_qSU8n_g/v-deo.html
So that purple thing is what’s going make the shapen
Me gustó muchísimo , gracias por compartir tu arte
Thank you! 💖
Thank you
You bet Brenda. Thank you for watching!
is there a way to harden the wire so it won't bend out of shape?
Lindsey BCarrlackhurst
I wonder the same.
Lindsey you can use memory wire if you don't want to use the artistic wire. But if you use 16 gauge artistic wire, that is some pretty stiff wire, and probably has more resistance to being pushed out of shape.
You can hammer the wire
Hi. Can 1 flush cutter be used for all sizes of memory wire/ copper wire etc? Does this tutorial applies for expendable rings? What are the tools required?
For memory wire you will want to use a special flush cutter, if you use a regular flush cutter it will ruin your cutters. The bracelet jig is only for bracelets. If you are making a ring you can try to use a mandrel but the tools for the wire should be the same. Here's a link to a cutter that will work with memory wire: www.beadaholique.com/xuron-memory-wire-cutters-cutting-pliers-strong-easy.html
thanks. never made one before.
Can you use any gauge wire or craft wire to make the bracelets on the jig or even memory wire?
Yes all the common gauges of jewelry wire will work. You can even use memory wire but it does take a lot of strength, and you'll want to be cautious to not apply too much pressure to the ring itself (say by gripping it for leverage) since it's perforated plastic
Thank you for sharing
Glad you liked it!
Can I get a jig like yours at any craft store
I do not think it's readily available at any craft store, but you can definitely look at your local one since all stores have different inventories. We sell it on our website here: beadaholique.com/products/artistic-wire-3d-bracelet-jig-create-bangles-cuffs-and-curved-components-2-75-inches
if you were to flatten the ends of the wire, what type of hammer would you use? thanks! so which is the best?
We don't usually hammer the ends of a wire to flatten it, instead we prefer to use a wire rounder tool like this one to make the end smooth beadaholique.com/products/wire-rounder-tool-with-wooden-handle-1-8mm-cup-bur
If you do want to use a hammer to bend the end of the wire against something firm, sort of like an old fashioned nail, I'd suggest trying a nylon hammer. Nylon tools are always best when you're doing general wire work since they're better on plated metals beadaholique.com/products/eurotool-domed-face-nylon-hammer-for-metal-smithing
Dose it have to be copper wire?
We recommend any non-ferrous wire. Thanks for watching!
thank you got some more information from watching
Thank you x
superbbb
Now Chase Value Centre Available online .
Great vid does anyone knows we’re to buy that blue pipe looking thing to round of the wire I’m new at this I need tool ideas anyone pls advice
That tool is actually a mandrel. You can find them on our site in the following link: beadaholique.com/products/hard-wood-round-bracelet-sizing-bangle-mandrel-wire-wrapping-tool
Thanks for watching!
so for 18g craft wire of 15" in length, what size adjustable bracelet will this make?
Using the 15 inches of wire in this video, we made a 6 1/2 inch size adjustable bracelet.
Beadaholique adjysts from 6 1/2 to...?
About size 7.
So if I need to make a bracelet out of 16g Sterling Silver wire that is 8 1/4 " and expands to 9 1/2", how can I best calculate the length of wire needed without excess waste? 16G SS will need to be work hardened on a mandrel, correct?

Is it a good idea to harden the 18 gauge wire? Thank you. You are a great instructor.
Yes you can work harden 18 gauge wire. It is general very thick on it's own, but hardening it couldn't hurt.
after harding the bangle the the jewery black rubber will not fit it, Do you have a video showing how to work with a very small hole in a charm like CRYSTAL INNOVATION 2007 item
Where can you purchase the charms

So much like thankyou you very much
Also what if I’m making a bunch of girls in my best friends Erin Mcmahon who have different wrist sizes and for myself
Artistic Wire makes an add-on kit for the 3D bracelet jig that lets you easily make two smaller sizes with the jig: beadaholique.com/products/artistic-wire-3d-bracelet-jig-sizing-drums-50-8mm-41-3mm-sizes-2-pieces
It's better to use memory wire., Flexible wire will deform it's shape super quickly
Memory wire can be worked with this tool but it's really best used for more intricate shapes that are difficult to manage with memory wire without a lot of hand strength and a bit of practice. Those pieces are soft and lightweight when done with craft wire. It's that common DIY trade-off between fragile and fancy, and durable and minimalist.
Would the bracelet bend if accidentally applied with a little too much force?
The bracelet is very sturdy, so regular wear should not affect it. Thanks for watching!
Hi. Excuse me that thickness and how long should be the thread for this beautiful bracelet? thanks
We used about 15 inches (38 cm) worth of wire to make the bracelet. The thickness of the wire is 18 gauge, or 1.02 mm
I made one of these today with 16g wire and it keeps bending out of shape when i expand it. Any advice?
+Angie Ryman I think to have a bracelet wire that will truly bounce back requires some more advanced metal smithing and professional equipment. To some extent all craft wire (and even sterling silver) will bend out of shape when the "expanding" happens. My best advice would be to expand the bracelet carefully and then help it along to get back in shape. Another thing you could try is to work harden the bracelet around a bracelet mandrel.
This really helps. Thank you :)
