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 make a 7.5" bracelet. The quantities given include enough flat cork to allow for up to an 8" bracelet. If you would like to make a larger bracelet, adjust the quantity accordingly. You will need a ruler for this project.
  1. To make this bracelet, watch the video: How to Measure and Assemble a Regaliz Flat Cork Cord Bracelet . In this video, you will learn how to measure and cut the cork, add the beads, attach the clasp, and finish the bracelet.
  2. Following what you learned in the video, take one half of your antiqued brass metallic clasp set and add in a few drops of Super New Glue into the recess. Gently insert one end of your 8� Regaliz cork length. Hold in place for a few seconds.
  3. Next, onto your Regaliz cork cord slide on the following slider beads (making sure the hammered sides are facing outward): 1 circle slider bead, 1 bow tie slider bead, 1 skull slider bead, 1 bow tie slider bead, and 1 circle slider bead. See photo for placement assistance.
  4. Using your Regaliz cutter, you can carefully cut the excess cork away, cutting only 1/4" at a time to get the desired fit. You can adjust as you cut a little bit at a time, placing the cord into the ends to check the fit after each cut.
  5. Repeat the steps above to glue in the other end of your cork cord end into the second half of your magnetic clasp.
  6. You�re done! Allow all glue to dry thoroughly before wearing.
