Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

These instructions are for a 7 1/2 inch bracelet. To adjust the length, simply add or subtract the number of pearls and crystals to each stand equally.
  1. Begin by cutting 10 inches of beading wire. Place a bead stopper about 2 inches from one end.
  2. Thread on: 1 Miyuki Baroque Pearl and 2 Austrian crystals (repeat 14 times) and then finish with 1 Pearl and 1 crimp tube.
  3. Thread the wire through the first loop of the box clasp, and back through the crimp bead. Note: Because you will be threading two wires through each loop in the clasp, do not pull as snug as you normally would. Leave a small loop for the wire to move. Crimp the crimp tube.
  4. Use a crimp cover over the crimped tube.
  5. Move to the other side of this wire. Remove the bead stopper and thread on one crimp tube. Thread the wire through the first loop of the other side of the clasp, and back through the crimp bead. Leave a small loop for the wire to move. Crimp the crimp tube.
  6. Use a crimp cover over the crimped tube.
  7. You will repeat this process for five more strands. Note that strands 1 & 2 share the top loop of the clasp. Strands 3 & 4 share the middle loop, and strands 5 & 6 share the bottom loop of the clasp.
  8. Once you have completed all six strands you are all done.
