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.

In addition to the materials listed, you will also need a toothpick and tap water. You will also want to use a shoe box or desired base with a hole cut in the top to fit the width of your bracelet and act as a sturdy holder for your project.
  1. Center the base of your bracelet securely into your shoebox or desired holder.
  2. Please watch our videos: How to Make Concrete Jewelry and How to Add Color Pigments to Concrete. Based on the instructions in the videos, mix your tablespoon of concrete and use a popsicle stick to add approximately 1/4 teaspoon of green pigment to the concrete.
  3. Using a toothpick, dab concrete into one rectangular side of the Nunn Design bezel bracelet to the edge. Carefully sprinkle the desired amount of Judikins glass shards onto the concrete. Be careful not to over-fill the bezel, and tap down gently on the shards with the toothpick to make sure each shard is embedded enough to be captured by the concrete.
  4. Repeat the above step to fill the other rectangular bezel of your bracelet in the same way. Let the concrete cure fully before removing your bracelet to wear. Enjoy!
