Chunky Chain And Bead Bracelet

It's surprisingly easy to make!

Last year my aunt gave me a red and yellow crystal bead. It was pretty but not really to my liking because 1. it was too big, 2. it kinda looks flashy, which means I can't use it on daily basis, and 3. the elastic string looked as if it was gonna snap any time. I finally got the idea to remake it after I saw this blog http://atelierworkroom.blogspot.com/2011/03/cool-jump-ring-trick.html. My first attempt was the purple one. It's made out of purplish stones and I-don't-know-what-type jump rings. It turned out pretty good. The second pic was the before photo of my red-yellow crystal bracelet. To remake it, I only used the red crystal which you can see in the third photo. I made the last one for my sister. I used pink beads and green seed beads.
