Product Details
Whether the charms on the bracelet are lucky or not, you can’t argue this St. Patrick’s Day Bracelet is a fabulous way to accessorize for the occasion. Dynamic lampwork beads, dangling silvertone St. Patty’s Day charms, an enchanting toggle clasp to bring it all together - going green has never been more fashionable.
1. Cut your desired length of wire, leaving plenty of extra wire for both ends.
2. String the circular piece of the toggle clasp onto the wire, stopping an inch from the end of the wire. Fold the excess wire toward the other end of the wire and string a crimp tube onto the wire, stopping just short of the clasp. Ensure that both wires have been strung in the crimp tube before clamping it shut. Cover it with a crimp cover and clamp it closed.
3. Add a jump ring to each charm, twisting it closed.
4. Begin stringing your bracelet. The first beads will need to go over both pieces of wire, covering until excess wire runs out. Daisy spacer beads should go around the round lampwork beads since the holes are larger and can draw other beads into them.
5. When you have achieved your desired pattern and are done stringing beads, string a crimp tube onto the wire and add the “T” of the toggle clasp. Bend the wire back toward the other end and cut all but the 1/2" off the end of the wire. String the end back through the crimp tube and clamp it closed. String the end of the wire back through the beads at the end of the bracelet, similar to the beginning of step 4, until the excess length is no longer visible.
6. Cover the crimp tube with a crimp cover, clamping closed, finishing the bracelet.
