With the products listed in the shopping list, you will receive more beads and jump rings than needed which you can use for even more projects.
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Decide how long you want your bracelet to be by wrapping it around your wrist - leaving enough room to tie a knot. Cut the elastic using wire cutters and pre-stretch the thread by pulling it with your fingers in different directions.
2. Organise your beads in the order you would like them to be on your bracelet and begin threading them onto the elastic thread until you have reached your desired length.
3. Tie a tight knot at the end of the bracelet - see step by step photos of how to secure a tight knot here.
4. For extra security you can add a dab of glue and allow to dry before wearing.
5. Use side cutters to trim off any excess elastic thread.
6. Use a pair of snipe or flat nose pliers to twist open a jump ring, attach the loop of the charm and attach it to your chosen position on the bracelet before twisting the jump ring closed to secure.
