This Bracelet is made in less than an hour.

Difficulty: Intermediate

For this project you need:

5 empty Bracelet Cups size 8 mm

5 Crystal Chatons 8 mm

1 empty Bracelet Cup size 14 mm

1 Crystal Rivoli 14 mm

50 cm Chain for single chain (100 cm for double chain)

4 Cup Chain Connectors

5 Jump Rings

1 Clasp

1 Extension Chain

2 Pliers

See the "Techniques" for an explanation of the separate steps and techniques.

Start by measuring your wrist.

If you do not know the wrist size, you can use an extension chain.

The average length of a bracelet is 19 cm or 7.5 inch.

Choose the plating (Cups and Chain) and colour of the Crystals.

Cut 5 cups from the 8 mm Bracelet Cup Chain.

Cut 1 cup from the 14 mm Bracelet Cup Chain.

Remove the old connectors.

Insert 2 Cup Chain Connectors on both sides of the Cup Chain and pinch them.

Place 2 Cup Chain Connectors in the single 14 mm Cup and pinch those as well.

The crystal parts both need to be in the middle of the wrist, so it is important to cut the chain at the correct length.

The Cup Chain, Connectors and Jump Rings all have a length themselves.

Taking that into account, there are 3 different lengths (see picture above: A,B & C).

To make life easier, we already calculated the needed lengths to cut.

Simply look up your wrist length and use the values in the table to cut the three pieces.

Place the Clasp with a Jump Ring on one side and add a Jump Ring to the other side.

Place the Crystals carefully in the Cups.

With the Nylon Jaw Plier bend the prongs to embed the crystal in the Cup.

A nylon jaw plier is safe to push the metal onto the crystal.

And there it is!
