How to Stack and Layer Bracelets for some great tips and ideas for getting this trendy look. You will also need a scrap of wire or toothpick for this project to assist with the application of glue.
- Begin by cutting off 16 inches of stretch cord. Thread on a big eye needle. String on 45 Miyuki cube beads. Tie a double overhand knot at the center. Thread the cord once more through all the beads and tie another overhand double knot. Add a dab of glue to both knots and allow to dry before trimming the excess cord.
- Cut off 16 inches of stretch cord. Thread on a big eye needle. String on 30 metal beads and 13 onyx gemstone beads. Tie a double overhand knot at the center. Thread the cord once more through all the beads and tie another overhand double knot. Add a dab of glue to both knots and allow to dry before trimming the excess cord.
- Place a dab of glue into the bezel of the silver charm and add one Austrian Crystal Flatback. Set aside.
- Take one head pin and make a wrapped wire loop. Trim any excess wire. Repeat twice more. Once you have all three, open one jump ring and attach all three to the jump ring. Then close the jump ring.
- On one bangle, open one jump ring and attach one star charm to the center double bar portion of the bangle. Using another jump ring attach one red crystal charm to the outer single side of the bangle. And finally, attach one dagger drop to the outer side of the bangle.
- On to another bangle, using jump rings as seen above, attach the triple dangle of silver beads to the outer side of the bangle. Then attach one red charm to the inner bar, and attach one dagger to the inner bar.
- To the third bangle, attach one red charm to the outer side. Attach the scorpio charm to the inner bar, and attach the bezel charm with the crystal to the inner bar.
- Stack them up and you're all done!
