European leather bracelets are a hot trend. The contemporary look coupled with unique clasps and cord ends add to their appeal
as you can see from the designs I made here. But what if you couldn't get or didn't want to buy those large cord ends? Make them yourself!
I've made my own coiled wire cord ends before (see links below) but had not considered using much thicker wire to compliment the thick leather cords. One person who did is Keirsten Giles who writes the
Cerebral Dilettante blog.
Check out her tutorial! Her gorgeous leather cord necklace above shows her wire cord ends in use! For more examples,
check out her Flickr stream.
I should add that such thick metal is harder to manipulate. But the good news is copper is one of the softer metals to use.
