DIY Stackable Wire Bangles

You’ve probably seen stackable wire bangles similar to this selling at boutiques for a pretty penny. Whether gifting to friends or making for yourself, these Alex & Ani inspired bracelets are easy to make.

To make stackable wire bangles you will need:

• 16 Gauge Jewelry Wire
• Needle Nose pliers
• Wire cutters
• Charms or beads

Start by cutting off a 12 inch piece of wire. Be careful not to bend the wire. Instead of stretching it out to measure, I cut off about 1.5 coils. Bend one end to a 90 degree angle.

Then using the needle nose pliers twist a loop on one end.

Thread charms or beads onto the other end of wire.

Then run the same wire end (the one not yet bent) through the loop. If you bend the wire, reshape it by wrapping around a water bottle.

Create the same type of closure on the second end, by creating a 90 degree angle and then creating a loop around the wire. You’ll want to be sure there is an overlap of wire between the loops so the bracelet can expand to fit over your wrist.
