Viking Knit Bracelet

I've been wanting to try this viking chain for quite sometime, till now whenever I saw this intricate design I assumed it was going to be very difficult and also looking at the name I thought its got to do something with knitting (not my area of interest) so I didn't give it a try. Recently I went to a craft fair ,there I saw this design I very much wanted to buy it but the price was high.... so I decided to make one for myself.

Materials used
Aen Key
28 gauge wire(from Itsy Bitsy)
Wire cutter
Ruler
Eye pin
Endcaps
Metal Clasps


First chain turned out good but it had few kinks here and there, but not noticeable.


Looking at the chain my daughter asked me to make a bracelet for her.
First made the viking knit bracelet
Next filled the bracelet with crystal beads
Added the end caps
Finished it by hanging few charms to it.

VOILA pretty bracelet ready....





If anyone interested in learning the technique for this bracelet do email me at anuja_npark@yahoo.com or leave a coment.

Wire Jewellery Set

I made this set to gift it to my sister-in-law for her birthday. First I just made the ear cuff and then all the other pieces followed to make a complete set.



Paper Bead Jewellery

The pendant and earring are made from 1" cream PAPER strip. I drew the picture, colored it and then rolled the paper to form the bead. I used Mod Podge as the top coat to give a glossy finish. Once it dries completely added the pearls to finish the pendant and earring.



My kids were able to find six differences between the drawings.

Wire Ear Cuffs

For quite sometime I wanted to try a wire ear cuff , its a unique design which still  I have't found in stores. I used 20 gauge wire to make this design. First made the ear cuff with Pink beads then to match it I made the earring.


The Pink rose was made from Mont Marte air dry clay and the bead was from a Patterned paper.


One earring can be used in 3 different ways.

Wire Feathery Charm

The inspiration for this charm came from a scrapbook paper pack called Pretty as a Peacock. I was using a peacock feather patterned paper for my acrylic frame notepad project and I was in need of a charm to match the paper.

With 20 gauge craft wire I made a leaf/feather shape design , added a bead to match the color of the paper. Made 3 of these charms and added them to a ring with spacer beads. Below is the video instruction for the charm.
