Project Instructions
-
1Use an eyepin to make a connector using one 4 mm round glass pearl bead. Before closing the loop on this first connector, attach it to the first ring of one side of the tube clasp.
-
2Use a second eyepin to make a connector using a 6.5 mm round glass bead with 3 mm x 5 mm facetted roundels on either side. Before closing the loop on this second connector, attach it to the bottom of the first connector. Continue to build the links of beads following the pattern shown in the image of the finished bracelet. Tip: the tube clasp has two halves. One half slides down into the other half to close. It is strongly suggest that you build the bracelet while the clasp is closed to ensure you can attach the first strand to the top loop in both halves of the clasp.

3Build strands three and five following the directions in step 2.

4For strands two and four, cut two 7 inch long strands of a medium sized link Silver chain of your choice. Use jump rings to attach the chain to the loops on the clasp.
