This finished bracelet measures 6.75". To adjust the length, modify the amount of beads on each strand accordingly.
  1. Place the 25x18 crystal fancy stone into the 25x18 setting. Bend the prongs down around the stone using your nylon pliers. You can also use a popsicle stick for this step, in place of the nylon pliers.
  2. Repeat the above step with the other stones in the appropriate settings.
  3. Cut two lengths of beading wire 12 inches each.
  4. Place both wires into a bead stopper, about 2 inches from the end of the wires.
  5. On each wire, string four 4mm pearls, and six 5mm pearls.
  6. On both wires, string one small fancy stone, one medium fancy stone.
  7. On each wire, string one 4mm pearl.
  8. On both wires, string one large fancy stone.
  9. Mirror the stringing order for the other half of the bracelet beginning by stringing one 4mm pearl on each wire, and so on.
  10. Separate the box clasp.
  11. Take one wire, and string on one crimp tube. Thread the wire up through the hole on one side of the clasp, and back down though the crimp tube. Pull to make a the loop of the wire smaller. Crimp the crimp tube. Snip any excess wire. Place a crimp cover over the crimp tube.
  12. Repeat this above step for the other wire on this side. Then move to the other side of the bracelet, remove the bead stopper and repeat.
  13. All done!
