This tutorial, you’ll see, is very simple, and the result at the end is just so wonderful.
A great and easy way to make wide beads and SW crystals bracelet!
The cup chain by meter (with holes), allows you to decide how wide you want the bracelet to be, because you can cut pieces with three, four or more settings, to make the exact size you are looking for.
You can also choose only one color natural beads, or pearls to make this bracelet, but know that is much easier to use beads in the same size, because you need the same amount to make the same length between the cup chains.
STEP 1: The martials you need
The materials you need for making this kind of bracelet are very few, and that's what makes it so great:
Cup chain with holes on the sides - 39ss\8mm and 29ss\6mm
Beads - the same kind, or different colors or sizes
A roll of stretched silicone thread for beading
A few small crimp beads
Plier tool
Prong pusher
STEP 2: Creating the bracelet
So, this bracelet is made with five small pieces of 29ss\6mm cup chain with four settings each, and four beads in-between each of the cup chain parts.
STEP 3: Closing the bracelet
The ends of the silicon thread of each row of beads need to meet inside the first stone setting so it will be closed nicely without showing any of it. Slide a small crimp bead and press it tightly with the help of the plier tool.
Have fun creating your own beads and crystal bracelet!
