Crocheting A Wire Bracelet Today

I haven't been crocheting wire for a while, but decided to create a bracelet today after one of my shops loved the crocheted pieces I brought in.  Of course, I don't always use sea glass with the crocheted pieces.  The one today is sterling silver with genuine sapphires and peridots as well as Swarovski ruby crystals and onyx crystals.  I am sharing it with you -- but since it requires so much wire, gemstones, and work on my part, it is not for sale.  If you would like a similar piece, just email me for information.  I can also use gold filled or copper wire, pearls, and other crystals.  This is a custom piece.

An article I wrote was published today on the Cousin Corporation blog.

I came across this great idea for organizing your earrings so they don't get lost in your jewelry box or when you are traveling. Just take some old buttons and put the earring hook through the hole and secure it with an earring back. Voila! Here are some examples.

Crocheting Wire

I discovered crocheted silver wire jewelry several years ago in Greece, and had to learn how to do it.  I have crocheted silver and gold filled wire to created some interesting earrings and pendant designs, and even a bracelet.  I will share more about how to do it, but today I will just post a few pictures.  More are on my website, if you are interested they are on sale until January 15 if the item number is below 250.
