  Step 1

  cut the wires into the desired length. also, remember to cut them longer than what you initially want so that the final output won't be a bracelet that's too short to even fit in your wrist.

• 

  Step 2

  cut a total of fifteen strands. then, group them into three.

• 

  Step 3

  since there are three groups of five wires, we'll be using three-strand braiding. so, basically, you treat each group of wires like a single strand and start braiding. make sure to keep everything nice and tight. you won't have a problem holding everything to place because you are dealing with wires. they pretty much stay intact.

  here's a video i found in youtube if you don't know how to braid.

• Step 4

  keep testing if the would-be bracelet will fit into your wrist. then, dab a TINY bit of super glue unto the ends to secure everything.

  mine for example.. the strands were too long so i overlapped them creating another type of effect...

  Step 5

  next, you can put a shell or any type of accessory over the connected area to cover it.

• Step 6

  mix a small amount of glitter and modge podge or clear varnish. cover the whole bracelet. let it try and then cover the whole thing with modge podge or clear varnish again -- this time, with no glitter... so all in all you have two coatings..

• 

  Step 7

  let it dry over night... and viola! you are done!! enjoy! --

  tip: you don't have to use three strand braiding if you think it's not gonna be thick enough for your taste... :)
