This is my "Corralled Bangle" from my Aspire to Wire course. I am way behind as I caught the crud last week. I finally got to this one. It is really cute and I just love it with my chevron necklace. I was worried that the bracelet would not fit my wrist, which I suspect is larger than the bracelet was designed for, but I wanted to make it to see how much larger I needed to go. I am out of 16 gauge wire so I used. 18 gauge. To my astonishment, the bracelet is PERFECT for my wrist. It is the most perfectly sized bracelet I have ever made (I typically make them too large). The only thing I don't like is that the support silver pieces are too long. I think next time I would use a shorter wire or larger loops (or try fine silver and ball the ends (which would be hard on the one side...)
