1. Cut 46" of beading wire. Place a bead stopper 4 inches from one end.
2. String onto your beading wire: 1 gunmetal crimp bead, 20 Miyuki delica 11/0 beads in galvanized matte magenta, and 1 Miyuki delica 10/0 bead in gun metal gray.
3. Next, string 1 antique silver plated curved tube noodle bead, 1 Miyuki delica 10/0 bead in gun metal gray, 20 Miyuki delica 11/0 beads in galvanized matte magenta, and another Miyuki delica 10/0 bead in gun metal gray. Repeat this step another 16 times. On the last segment, replace the final Miyuki bead in gun metal with a gun metal crimp bead instead.
4. String onto your beading wire 1 wire protector,wire protector, loop your wire all the way through it. Now string 1 7mm gun metal closed jump ring and position it on the inside curve of your wire protector. Pull your wire protector (with jump ring inside) down to rest close to the crimp bead. Thread the wire through the crimp bead, going towards your beads. Pull snug and crimp the crimp bead. Snip off excess beading wire with your flush cutters.
5. Go to the other side of your strung beads, remove the bead stopper, and repeat the previous step.
6. Open a 4mm gun metal jump ring and link it to the 7mm jump ring you just attached as well as the loop at the base of your lobster clasp. Close the jump ring.
7. On the other side of your bracelet, open another 4mm jump ring and link it to the 7mm jump ring already attached as well as a second 7mm jump ring. Close the 4mm jump ring. Open another 4mm jump ring and attach it to the 7mm jump ring you just attached and another 7mm jump ring. Close the jump ring. Open another 4mm jump ring and attach it to the 7mm jump ring you just attached as well as the loop at the top of your message charm. Close the jump ring.
