Tips for Stacking Copper Bangle Bracelets

The layered bracelet look gives an outfit a flirty and bold touch. One bangle is good, but a stack of bangles are powerful. They add personality to an outfit. A well thought out stack can completely rejuvenate the uniqueness of an outfit. Copper bangles are great because they act as a blending medium for many metals and textures. They make a fantastic great foundation piece. When it comes to stacking, it’s all about colors and sizes. If you open your creative eye, this can actually be a fun process. Remember, it’s not about putting all the bracelets from your jewelry collection together; instead, it’s about choosing the right pieces and placing them in such a way that they create a wholesome and well balanced look.

Every party begins with a strong foundation piece. A good thick bangle will create a strong base for the rest of the bracelets.  As mentioned above, a copper bangle works great for this purpose because it has a nice earthy tone that sits well with most colors and metals.

Something like this beauty will make for a great piece:

This bracelet is a classic piece. It is strong and the beautiful rose gold shade works with the other colors. Its simplicity adds to its elegance. It will work for both a formal and informal arm candy.

Looking for something with more texture?

This anticlastically raised corrugated bracelet will do the trick.

For a clean and sleek look, keep your stack monochromatic. Play with the sizes. In this instance, for examples, our foundation piece is a copper bangle. So keeping the monochromatic rule in mind, the other pieces that we include in this stack should have the same shade. Wire bangles, bands, chain bracelets with a copper shade can be added. For a pop of color, pick accent pieces with rhinestones, or other embellishments.  For a more professional look, add a copper watch. Avoid adding another chunky piece, since the size will clash with our foundation bangle. For a fun and care free look, go for embellished and colorful pieces. Charm bracelets, beaded bracelets , enamel bracelets and braided bracelets, all work great for these. Even though you do have the license to make your stack as colorful and sparkly as you want, you do not want it to look like a giant mess.

Questions and Answers

Cleaning a Copper Bracelet?  I have an old copper bracelet that used to be my grandfathers. It really needs cleaned. What is the best way to clean it without buying a cleaner for it?

Posted by Andrea

[display_name id=”3″]Tips to clean a copper bracelet Vinegar Place your copper jewelry in a glass, or plastic container, not metal. I use a drinking glass. Pour enough vinegar over it to completely cover it. Let stand for 5-10 minutes. Rinse. Dry. You’re done! Lemon Juice Follow directions used above for vinegar. Ketchup This is my least favorite, as it is a little messy, but it will certainly do in a pinch! Simply rub your piece of copper jewelry with ketchup on a cloth until it is shiney. Rinse. Dry. You’re done!

NOTE: If you buy a piece of copper jewelry that has a protective lacquer on it, do not try to clean it by any of these methods. Be especially careful if you have purchased a vintage piece as you could possibly decrease its value. A lot of collectors sell pieces that have not been cleaned by them and leave the cleaning up to the buyer if they so desire.
