This bracelet design is almost exactly like the Beaded Wire Bangle Bracelet but with a few small changes. Most of these changes have to do with the types of beads used, so you can follow the same instructions for the other bracelet and just tweak it a little per the following alternations:

You’ll need the same type of tools except you won’t need the snap ring pliers.

Use 1 inch square stone beads instead of round beads.

You’ll need about 8 square beads. For the bangle pictured, I used hematite beads.

For an added touch, I added 2mm gold-filled beads on either side of the square hematite beads. So, I strung on 1 gold-filled, then 1 square bead, then 1 gold-filled bead.

Instead of just adding a few beads in the middle of the bracelet, these beads go all around the bracelet.

You’ll need a little more half round gold-filled wire because you have to wrap in between each group of beads you add as described above. So you will add the three beads, then wrap, add three beads, then wrap, and continue this all the way down the bracelet.

After adding the beads and wrapping between them, just shape the bracelet by bending the wire around a bracelet mandrel or can of soup.
