STEP 1
Cut a 10-inch length of Accu-Flex® beading wire.
STEP 2
String onto the length of beading wire: one crimp and one Accu-Guard™ wire protector. Pass the beading wire back through the crimp. Pull the beading wire so the crimp rests snug against the Accu-Guard leaving approximately 1/4 inch of beading wire on the end. Crimp then trim the excess from the short end of the beading wire. Finish with a crimp cover.
STEP 3
String onto the beading wire in the following order:
-
One emerald bead
-
One Siam bead
-
One emerald bead
-
Three gold-plated brass beads
Repeat this pattern a total of six times then string onto the beading wire one emerald bead, one Siam bead and one emerald bead.
Repeat Step 2.
STEP 4
Pass a charm onto a jump ring, then close. Attach the first jump ring and a second charm to a second jump ring. Attach the second jump ring, one Accu-Guard and half of a toggle clasp to a third jump ring.
Use a jump ring to attach the other end of the bracelet to the other half of a toggle clasp to complete the bracelet.
