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 wrap bracelet is approximately seven inches around (each wrap). To adjust the finished size of your bracelet, multiply the amount to increase or decrease by three and adjust the length of the cord accordingly.
  1. You can see this bracelet made start to finish in the video How to Make the Wrapped in Love Bracelet.
  2. Cut a length of synthetic rubber cord that is 24" long.
  3. Thread the end of the cord through the smallest opening on the Tribuckle (ridge side up) and fold over the last 3/4".
  4. Set the hole punch for a 2mm hole. Use the punch to make a hole through both folded layers of cork about 1/2" from the folded edge.
  5. Thread a washer onto one of the longer eyelets and then insert the washer through the holes from the top. Thread a second washer onto the back of the eyelet.
  6. Place the assembly flange side down onto the anvil, set eyelet setter into the tube, and tap gently with a hammer while rotating the setter at a slight angle until the eyelet is set.
  7. Use a pencil to mark the placement for your 10 eyelets, about 2" apart along the bracelet, leaving the final 3" blank.
  8. Set your hole punch for 2mm holes and punch a hole at each pencil mark.
  9. Insert one of the shorter eyelets into one of the holes and set as before. Repeat with the remaining shorter eyelets to set all ten.
  10. Thread your red bead onto a head pin and create a simple wire loop.
  11. Open a jump ring and place the wire loop onto it. Thread it through the bottom opening of the Tribuckle and close the ring. Repeat this process to hang the winged heart charm next to the bead dangle.
