You Will Need (6 things)

  • Wire Cutters
  • Jewelry Wire
  • Flat Nose Pliers
  • Bead(s)
  • Crimp Beads
  • Toggle Clasp

Steps (5 steps, 5 minutes)

  1. 1

    Use your wrist to determine how much word you need. Leave a few inches extra on each side to add the toggle clasp.

  2. 2

    Get your beads together and figure out how you want them to go on.

  3. 3

    String the beads. Try to keep symmetry. Find the center of your letters and keep each side the same in terms of accounts and sizes of beads. Add beads to make bracelet longer.

  4. 4

    Next is adding the toggle clasp. Put the crimp bead on followed by one side of the clasp. Determine how you put these bracelets on to figure out which side each power goes on.

  5. 5

    Loop the end of the wire into the crimp bead, tapping the clasp piece in. Using flat-nosed pliers, press the best to flatten and close it. Using wire cutters, cut off any excess wire. Repeat on other side with the other clasp piece.
