Bracelet
Minutes to create: 25
Supplies needed:
Memory wire, 2 head pins, mixture of wood, carnelian, silver and turquoise beads.
1
.
Take memory wire and make a loop at the end of the memory wire using your round nose pliers.
2
. Now you can thread your beads in any order that is pleasing to you. The example uses many of the beads in groups to make more of an impact. Try to alternate beads so you don't put the same beads next to each other. To string the longer wood beads, stretch out the memory wire. The white turquoise stones can be a tight fit, so to make it easier pull the wire through using your pliers.
3
. When you have threaded all of the beads onto 3-4 coils, make another loop at the end of the memory wire and cut the excess wire you don't need using memory wire cutters.
4
. To make a charm for each end of your bracelet, take 2 head pins and thread a carnelian rondelle and a wood bead on each head pin. Make a head pin loop or wrapped head pin loop using your round nose pliers. (
See Bead Basics
) Thread the loop in the head pin through the loop on each end of the memory wire.
