This bracelet is an adjustable design. Please see videos below for sizing assistance. You will also need a toothpick or scrap of wire for this design.
  1. Please watch our video: How to Add Beads to a Centerline Pendant. In this video you will see how to add the beads to the pendant. For this design you will add 18 red beads using the red Nymo thread. Once you have completed your pendant, set it aside.
  2. Next, please watch our video: How to Make an Adjustable Slider Bracelet with Snake Chain and Tassels. For this design you will cut the chain into two lengths and attach the feather pendant to the center using the cord ends and the jump rings. Put the chain through the slider bead and adjust the length if needed. Add the tassels to the ends as shown in the video.
  3. Allow the glue to dry fully overnight before wearing.
