This bracelet measures 8" long. For a bracelet that is longer or shorter, simply adjust the faux leather cord length.
  1. Using your cord cutting tool, cut two 2.5" lengths of chocolate brown faux leather cord with your flush cutters.
  2. Next, cut a 2" long length of antiqued brass fishbone chain with your flush cutters.
  3. Using your chain nose pliers, attach an antiqued brass pinch crimp end onto all 4 ends of your faux leather cord. You should have 4 total when done. See photo. Set aside.
  4. Using you chain nose pliers, open a 6mm antiqued brass jump ring and slide on one half of your antiqued brass magnetic clasp and the loop from one pinch crimp end from one side of one of your faux leather cord lengths. Close the jump ring.
  5. Next, open another jump ring and attach it onto the pinch crimp end on the other side of that same length and close. Open up another jump ring and slide it onto that first jump ring and and also the last link from one side of your antiqued brass fishbone chain length and close.
  6. Open another jump ring and slide it onto the last link from the other side of your fishbone chain and close. Open another jump ring and slide it onto that first jump ring and also the pinch crimp end loop from one side of your second faux leather cord end. Close that jump ring.
  7. Open up another jump ring and attach it to the pinch crimp end on the other side of that same faux leather cord end. Also slide on the loop from the other half of your antiqued brass magnetic clasp and close.
