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.

This bracelet will fit a 6.25 inch wrist. Simply adjust by adding or subtracting the dangles and/or the jump rings.
  1. Take one head pin and string on one pom followed by one bead cap and one 3mm bead. Make sure that your headpin is going through the sturdy core of the pom. Make a wrapped wire loop. Trim any excess wire. Repeat for 12 more palms.
  2. Open one jump ring and attach it to the bar of the toggle clasp. Close the jump ring.
  3. Attach one jump ring to the one you just added, by using the same manner as above.
  4. Attach one jump ring to the one you just added.
  5. Attach one jump ring to the one you just added, but before closing the jump ring, string on one of the poms.
  6. Attach one jump ring to the one you just added. Then add another jump ring with a pom on it. Follow this pattern to alternate the jump rings and jump rings with poms on them. As you work, make sure all the poms are hanging on the same side of the bracelet.
  7. When you come to the last pom, add 3 more jump rings, attaching the last one to the other side of the toggle clasp.
Please note that you will receive a multi-color bag of pom poms. Choose your favorite colors to use in this project.
