For anybody looking for cheap copper wire, don't forget your local scrap metal dealer! Multi strand electrical cable is a great option and comes in a variety of sizes.

I did try this braid but with a "twist"...It wasn't quite as robust but simpler...8 loops, 16 wires instead of 24...very easy to keep the wires from twisting. Its called "finger looping" or "slentring" works great!

[@ZurickDesigns]

That’s awesome! ☺️

[@wientz]

@@ZurickDesigns Thanks for posting!

[@wientz]

Nice...I am an electrical contractor and I have been learning to make bracelets....I also have an unlimited supply of 2 -3 foot long scraps of dozens of wire types that can be stripped and unwound for an almost infinite supply of sizes. I think this is a very good way of selecting a proper size just by "feel".

[@treesapgrl]

My new favorite ending! 🐶💜

[@tishsmiddy71]

Thank you ❤️🤩💋beautiful

[@ZurickDesigns]

Thanks!

[@natalieharrison4318]

Omg love it. I'd be messing up lots lol before I even get it right. That's how I get lots of my wires as well. Reuse and recycle.

[@ZurickDesigns]

Good deal!

[@Pamelakaygorman]

Love this braid. I have made several of these and I found that I couldn’t keep my wires from getting tangled so I taped the ends of my bundles and I could make them so much faster. Yours look much better than mine. The first couple I made I ended up beating it flat and it was usable then. Lol

[@ZurickDesigns]

Oh man! Keep trying! It’s a little frustrating at first! 💜☺️

[@natalieharrison4318]

Thanks for sharing this beautiful jewelry creation with me

[@reginabayles1169]

BEAUTIFUL🤩, BEAUTIFUL🤩, BEAUTIFUL 🤩 ""YOU HAD ME AT HORSE HAIR!!!""😅😂🤣🥰

[@ZurickDesigns]

I should make a video for that! 😮

[@cherylbrowning6509]

This is amazing!!! I love the idea of the rubberband instead of tape which leaves sticky behind. Could you use rubberbands on the bundles when you start out?

[@ZurickDesigns]

Probably 😬

[@Gizapowerplant]

That turned out amazing! Love your focus Melissa! Thanks again and looking forward to next weeks vid! Have a wonderful week!

[@ZurickDesigns]

Thanks so much! Have a great week too! 👍🏻

[@michelletanner948]

Very nice. Love your puppy

[@ZurickDesigns]

Thank you! ☺️

[@markstandard8312]

OMG that was rough. I had to take it apart twice and start over. I feel accomplished and my hands hurt 8 hours after i started its done.... Thank you for giving me ptsd.. 🤪

[@toniqh]

Looks great! Maybe wrapping each set of 3 wires with tape might help? Thanks for the tutorial

[@ZurickDesigns]

Great tip! ☺️

[@lidiavidal8655]

Espero que lo haga en una morza donde se vea el punto.

[@jenniferavenoso7162]

Beautiful Just bought 14G then found out hubs has about 700 ft of it the garage lol we strip wires too ! Awesome

[@ZurickDesigns]

Nice!!

[@lidiavidal8655]

La trenza está muy buena. Pero no se ve el gancho!!!! No queda mejor en una morza!!!!!!!

[@tbilly6201]

Nice! That’s a lot of wire to concentrate on, very cool bracelet. I have a brain like yours…🐿.. dammit ✌️❤️

[@CheekyMonkey1776]

I’ll bet she has strong fingers.... no thumb wars with her.

[@ZurickDesigns]

I wouldn’t take that challenge. Thumbs are shot! Lol

[@edroosen4988]

You talk too much get on with it

[@ZurickDesigns]

I talk to much?? That’s the first time anyone has ever told me that lol 😆
