No matter your skill level, this D.I.Y Jewelry tutorial will help you create a beautiful wire wrapped butterfly bracelet. It includes detailed step by step instructions, with photos for each step.

The lesson of the butterfly is to let go of old behaviors and expound into the next phase of our existence. Each of us transforms through multiple stages throughout our lives. A Butterfly is a universal symbol of change, celebration and young love ... Resurrection, rebirth, survival and transformation.

This is such a sweet, feminine bracelet. Jewelry wire is hand sculpted into soft wings and embellished with strategically placed beads to form this pretty, fluttering butterfly.

This bracelet requires only jewelry wire, a few beads and four basic tools, so you won't have to invest a lot of money in supplies and tools to get started making gorgeous hand crafted wire wrapped jewelry. There are endless variations for this bracelet by using smooth or twisted wire, and combining metals of gold, sterling or copper. The clasp is hand crafted, and will enable some adjustment in sizing the bracelet, as well as making it a breeze to put on all by yourself!

Complete and concise tutorial. Love the finished product and I am an early intermediate wire-wrapper. Used pink glass stones on copper and I'm going to oxidize it, think that it will be quite stunning! Thanks!
