The working process of making a 3pcs/set Trendy Cuff Bracelet:
I bought a broken copper basket on the internet and from this I cut a piece of the thickest copper wire that I needed. I hammered the cut piece of copper wire into a square shape and straightened the copper wire with a file and sandpaper. Afterwards I bent the bracelet into shape and polished it up so it was nice and shiny.
For the second copper bracelet, I cut the thin copper wires from the copper basket into the correct sizes and straightened them. Afterwards I set about braiding a copper bracelet - I used 5 copper wires - 1 to place in the middle and the other 4 to braid with. When I was satisfied with the copper braid, the bracelet was twisted out of shape - I corrected that with 2 pliers and then I sanded the bracelet afterwards so that it was smooth. I then bent the now braided bracelet to fit my arm and polished it to a shine. I am quite satisfied with the result.
To make the 3rd copper bracelet, I again cut one of the thick copper wires to the right length and hammered it quite flat into the shape. When you hit copper so hard, it goes out of shape and becomes crooked - but I fixed that by clamping the bracelet in the vise and twisting it the opposite way, so it was straight. Afterwards I drew it up with marks next to every centimeter and then used the drawings to sand - with a key file - diagonally from corner to corner on the edges of the bracelet, creating a cross pattern. Afterwards, I sanded it down so it was quite nice.
All 3 copper bracelets can be used separately - but certainly also together.
