Heavy chain Lighter chains – silver and black Pearls Jump rings – lots in multiple sizes Closure Charms – (I used these and some from this brand) Needle & thread Embroidery thread Pliers Wire cutters (optional) Glue
Measure your heavy chain to fit your wrist. Don’t make this bracelet too loose, it can get a little heavy and you don’t want it to slide off. Using your needle and thread, tie one end of your thread to the end of your chain. Thread a bead and wrap your thread around your chain and double back through your bead again. Then add a jump ring and secure it to your chain by wrapping your thread around your jump ring and chain at least twice. Do this all the way across your chain, alternating beads and jump rings.
When you’re finished secure the ends of your thread with some glue. Add your closure to your bracelet.
Cut your chain into many short lengths of varying lengths. Cut a lot you’ll need them.
Add your charms to your chains. Group your chains onto large jump rings. Make many different clusters of chains and charms.
You’re ready to add them to your chain. Be sure to attach them to your chain and not to the jump rings between your beads. Start by adding your chains first.
Then fill in with your charms. Now you’re ready to rock it!
