This bracelet is adjustable. When sizing, simply measure the largest size needed to slip over the wrist. From there you will add the adjustable slider bead to wear comfortably. To modify the length, simply adjust the length of chain on both sides respectively. You will also need a scrap of thin wire or thread for this bracelet.
- Use your flush cutters to remove 6 triangles from the chain by cutting their attached jump rings. Set these aside.
- Take one eye pin and string on one rhombus bead. Make a simple wire loop. Trim any excess wire. Set aside and repeat twice more.
- Cut two 4 inch lengths of chain.
- Open one jump ring and attach it to the end of one length of chain. Attach one triangle and close the jump ring. Move to the other side of this triangle and attach one eye pin with the crystal on it by opening the loop the same as you would a jump ring. Close the loop.
- Connect another triangle and another crystal by repeating the above process. Then repeat once more. Finish by adding one last triangle. Open another jump ring and attach it to the triangle and to the other length of chain.
- Using your thin scrap of wire or thread, thread on the two end links of the chain and using this wire as a needle thread both ends of the chain through the adjustable slider bead. Remove the wire.
- Finally take one triangle charm and attach one jump ring to each hole of the charm. Close the jump rings. Then attach one more jump ring to both jump rings and to one end of the chain. Close the jump ring. Repeat this step on the other end of the chain to complete this bracelet.
