    Thanks guys you are all very kind with me
    The wire I used is 0.6mm diameter silver plated wire from Salix Associates (bought in hobbycraft for a couple of quid).
    I cut about 4 inches off for each link and do a wrapped loop, have a look here they describe it really well, better than I could. :o

    thanks Kandi, I think a trip to hobbycraft may be in order ;) will have a go at the wrapped loops as I have only been doing plain and simple ones so far!

    Here is a larger pic of the bracelet so you can kind of see the wrapped loops easier:

    I like the toggle clasp, but I can't remember where I bought it and would like some more, honestly, I am useless...... :)

    Kandi, I got clasps like that from my local craft shop, a leaf one like yours, and a daisy one :)
  • Morning ladies, i would love to have a go at making some jewellery but money is tight (as always lol) would any of you know where they have some starter kits on offer at the moment. Unfortunately we don't have a Hobbycraft near to where i live.
    look forward to hearing from you soon
    In love and light :A
