Wrap It Up Cuff

Pinned back bias brass ribbon edges.

I was intrigued by the designs possibilities using 1″ bi-metal strips(silver-filled on one side and brass on the other). When I got my hands on some, it just spoke “ribbon” to me.

Silver and gold bi-metal curls.

So I curled and twirled about 16″ of the metal; pinned the folded bias cut ends back, showing the brass side, with silver faceted beads, and formed a gold-filled hook clasp to slip into one end.

The metal was, of course, work-hardened by my manipulations, and springy; so I had to fasten the cuff.

I applied Renaissance Wax to all surfaces for tarnish resistance. Pretty cool for an “off the cuff” idea.
