Keeping with last week's theme of learning new techniques, we asked bead team member Barb Switzer to create a project that is fun to make and wear that would stretch our beading muscles in the way of wirework.

Erin Strother's
Knotted Jasper necklace?); this week we're going to learn how to wrap fine gauge wire around larger wire bangles to create these gorgeous sparkling bracelets.
