This is a Second Part of my new FREE Step-by-Step Tutorial for upcoming Mother’s Day.

Making Bracelet

 

To make Bracelet you will need:

6 pcs of Czech Pressed Drops 8×6, (top-drilled)
4 pcs of Pewter Rose Drop Charm
1 pc of Czech Focal Bead
12 pcs of Caps
2 pc of Focal Rondelle Handmade Lamp Bead
4 pcs of Smaller Rondelle Handmade Lamp Bead
11-16 pcs of 4mm Czech Fire Polish
1 pc Heart Spring Clasp
2 pcs of Double Jumpring, 6mm diameter
about 10-15cm of Curb Chain
About 40cm of 20Ga ACW
About 50cm of 24Ga ACW

Step 1:

In this Step we will make “Left and Right Part” of Bracelet.

1) Cut about 15 cm long 20Ga Wire. Make double loop on one end.
2) Insert 1Cup, 1Small Rondelle, 1Cup, 1Cup, 1Focal Rondelle, 1Cup, 1Cup, 1Small Rondelle, 1Cup as pictured. Make double loops on other end. Make 2 Parts as pictured.
3) Make Focal Czech bead with double loops at each end.
4) Prepare 6pcs Czech drops and 4pcs Pewter Rose drops.

Step 2:

In this Step we will connect “Left and Right Part”  with Focal Czech Bead.

1) Take about 20cm of 24Ga wire and insert into 3 Drops, 1 Focal Czech bead, 2 Drops as pictured on picture #1 above.
2) On the picture #2 is shown how beads position on the 24Ga Wire.

 

3) Czech Focal bead located on your Right. Insert both of 24Ga Wire into loop of Czech Focal bead toward each other.
3a) On picture #3a shown same step if put all beads flat on the table.

 Step 3:

Referring to picture #4 below, we have loop of Bracelet Part and loop of Czech Focal bead. 

 

4) Continue from step #3a insert both ends of 24Ga wire into loop of Bracelet part once again.
5) Twist 24Ga wire few times. 

Step 4 :

Now we will “cover” connection of Bracelet part and Czech Focal bead.

6) After you make few twists with 24Ga wire, insert 1 pc of 4mm Czech Fire Polish on each end of Wire.
7) Move Czech Fire Polish closer to center and form coils using Round Nose pliers on each end as pictured on picture #7.
8) Bend both ends toward to Czech Focal bead.
9)-10) You will have small Heart-like decoration in the middle, this is would be a nice “cover” of connection between Bracelet Part and Czech Focal bead.

 

Repeat Steps 2-3-4 to connect other Bracelet Part with Czech Focal bead. Try on :)

 At this point decide how you wanna to wear your Bracelet, on Wrist or Below Wrist. I will show you how to make both.
OPTION # 1: Below Wrist 2-3cm.

Prepare 2 pcs of 24Ga Wire (15cm each), 2 chains (6 link each), 2 double jumprings, 4pcs of 4mm Czech FP, 2 links made from 5pcs of 4mm Czech FP with double loops at each end. Reffer to picture below.

Insert 24Ga Wire into double loop of Bracelet part, insert Chain and Czech FP link as pictured below.

Refer to Step 3 and picture #5, make a Heart-like “cover” the same way as we did previously.

You can attach any other Clasp that you like or have in you stash or simply make you own, option with Heart clasp is more beginner-friendly and this is why this Bracelet made using this simple Clasp.

Repeat for other part of Bracelet except of Hear Clasp. For other part of Bracelet don’t attach Heart Clasp. Bracelet will be positioned about 2-3cm below your Wrist. If you have large Wrist, most likely OPTION #1 is more suitable for you.

 

 OPTION # 2: On the Wrist.

For this Option, attach Czech FP link and Chain on one part of Bracelet only, on the other part of Bracelet attach 1 Double Jumpring and 3 Chain Dangles. You can attach other Charms and components from your stash, be creative :)

 Option # 2 ideal for smaller sized Wrist.

Now is time to make a pair of matching Earrings :)

Making Necklace (PART-III)……(in progress, comming SOON :)
