can you use something else instead of stainless steel memory wire?
How wide is this bracelet? I've seen the "Gemmy Bracelet" and saw it was about 1" wide, but am curious as to the width of this one.
Thanks,
Beth

This particular one shown in the picture is about 1 inch and 3/4.

I really think this might be my favorite tutorial. I've made about five of these cuff bracelets trying different themes each time. I made one completely of wooden beads and copper wire, another solely of swarovski crystals, another in onyx and swarovski and more. I find the weaving of the beads to be tranquilizing and even though I've planned each bracelet carefully, still I am always pleasantly surprised by the final magical product. And every time I wear these bracelets, I am stopped and asked about them. Once, a bead shop owner recognized that it was "Eni Oken's Cuff Bracelet" design that I was wearing. Thank you, Eni. Suzanne
Eni, you are such a talented lady. Initially I wasn't sure if I could attempt this bracelet as it said ( am intermediate) advance, but having read all the comments and see the gallery I am going to buy this tut.
I look forward to seeing more of your work, you are the reason I love wire so much, thank you.
Thank you so much! I find that although this it looks like difficult piece, it is in fact, not really. And the beauty of it is that you can use all those leftover beads that you didn't want to get rid of, but don't know what to do. AKA Bead soup.
