It's not really too difficult to make, but I'm not sure how to explain it :]

But I've made a few of these & I thought I'd do a how-to

You Will Need (3 things)

  • Chain
  • Pendant
  • Ring Base

Steps (11 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    What you need:
    -Chains
    -Ring Base
    -Pendant
    -Jump Rings
    -Jewelry Pliers
    -Lobster Claw

  2. 2

    Glue pendant to ring base
    (I switched to a silver cross instead of gold)

  3. 3

    Connect the chain & the pendant with a jump ring

  4. 4

    Measure how long you want the connecting chain to be - I made mine about 15cm, but ended up shortening it later on to about 13cm

  5. 5

    These chains are for the bracelet part - measure your wrist around and decide how loose you want it to be.
    Don't make it too loose because the hand chain part might twist & you'll be adding extra space with the jump rings for the lobster claw

  6. 6

    Start cutting more chains roughly the same size.
    I put them onto a pin so I can keep them together, maintain the size & keep track of the pattern I wanted.

    silver, silver, gold, bronze, black, bronze, gold, silver, silver...etc

  7. 7

    Start attaching the bracelet chains to the hand chain one by one every link

  8. 8

    Keep going until you're satisfied with the amount of chains you have.
    Separate them in the middle :)

  9. 9

    Gather them onto one jump ring in order & then add another jump ring

  10. 10

    Do the same thing to the other side & put a lobster claw clasp

  11. 11

    Attach & wear :D
