This bracelet measures approximately 6.5 inches. To modify the length, simply adjust the number of beads strung respectively.
  1. To make the bracelet, cut off 14 inches of beading wire.
  2. String on one crimp tube then thread one end through the top loop on one side of the multi-strand clasp. String it back through the crimp tube. Crimp the crimp tube.
  3. String on a colorful pattern of 24 gemstone beads.
  4. String on one crimp tube. Thread the wire through the top loop on the other side of the magnetic clasp. Thread the beading wire back through the crimp tube and pull snug. Crimp the crimp tube. Thread the wire back through a few adjacent beads. Trim any excess wire.
  5. Repeat the above process to add the next two strands. Be sure to keep your tension even so as to make all strands the same length.
