Today I made a bangle bracelet with a dangling heart charm. Ever since Valentine's Day I've been in the mood for hearts. All three components are hammered and shaped from sterling silver wire, and have a smooth surface (not textured.) The inside diameter of the bangle bracelet is 2.5". If you want more details, click here. Sizing a bangle - A bangle should fit so that to get it on, you must gently push your hand through it. A good way to choose the right size is to make a fist, then measure the distance between the middle of the first and fourth knuckles. That length is approximately the right inside diameter of a bangle bracelet. My fist measures 2.5" so this one fits me. I'm glad you stopped by for day 9 of the challenge.

I like this one's simplicity. It would make a great gift for a young girl.
