This bracelet was inspired by an image of a "black" Hellebore flower. The wire links are simple to make and you can whip them up quickly. I used black wire for this project but you could use any 12 gauge colored wire for a totally different look. Also leave the round wire as is without pounding flat for a different effect.

Instructions
Step 1
Using the 12ga wire directly from the spool, wrap one end around the Wubbers medium pliers jaw (the smaller one).

Step 2
Wrap the other direction around the larger jaw.

Step 3
Remove the pliers from the wire and reposition so the wire wraps completely around the jaw.

Step 4
Cut the link and trim each wire end diagonally so they butt up against the main wire frame.

Push the wire ends as close as possible to the main frame.
