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.

Before you begin, measure your wrist and decide how long you'd like your bracelet to be. The clasp will add just a bit over an inch to your finished measurement. These instructions will make a finished bracelet that is approximately 8" long, including the clasp.

Begin by measuring the size of your chain. You will need three separate 7� chains for your bracelet. Keep in mind that the links in this chain slightly differ in size but once the chains lie flat next to one another, the turquoise beads will line up.
Using your flush cutters, cut your chain leaving clean links at either end.
Next, using your chain nose pliers, open the the last link on one of your lengths of chain and attach a jump ring to it. Link this to one of the side holes on one of your D Ring toggle clasps.
Close the jump ring. Repeat this step with your two other chain lengths, attaching them to the other two holes on the D Ring toggle clasp.
Repeat the above step on the other side of your bracelet with your other D Ring toggle clasp.
Then add your last jump ring to the loop in your toggle bar and add it to one of your D-rings.
Your bracelet is done.
