I occasionally wrap long necklaces around my wrist to wear'em as bracelets and it's how I actually came up with the idea of making this bracelet.
Collect all the materials needed and start making one :)

You Will Need (3 things)

  • Pearl Beads
  • Jewelry Pliers
  • Craft Wire

Steps (6 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Take the crafting wire, hold its end but don't cut it off from the bundle,
    Use a looping plier to create a small loop(first loop) on that end,
    Now, leave 1.5-2 cm of the wire straight (for the bead and the second loop) and cut the wire from the bundle.

  2. 2

    Now slide a bead into the wire,
    Create another loop(second loop) with the remaining wire.

    You'll have to wire loads of beads similarly. use different, bright colored pearl beads or any kind of beads.

  3. 3

    You can use jump rings for attaching the wired beads or you can simply attach them through their loops.
    Slightly open a loop of a beaded wire and get it through the loops of another beaded wire,
    close the open loop using flat nose plier.

  4. 4

    Keep attaching the beaded wires until the bracelet reaches the required length.

  5. 5

    If you think that the beaded wire chain has reached the required length for the bracelet, wrap it around your wrist to make sure.
    Keep the length at least 2 inches extra,
    Finally join the beaded wires of both ends through their loops.

  6. 6

    Now wrap it, wear it and enjoy :)
