Instructions

  1. Small 2014 03 02 134728 step 1

    Take the crafting wire, hold its end but don't cut it off from the bundle, Use a looping plier to create a small loop(first loop) on that end, Now, leave 1.5-2 cm of the wire straight (for the bead and the second loop) and cut the wire from the bundle.

  2. Small 2014 03 02 134825 step 2

    Now slide a bead into the wire, Create another loop(second loop) with the remaining wire. You'll have to wire loads of beads similarly. use different, bright colored pearl beads or any kind of beads.

  3. Small 2014 03 02 135006 step 3

    You can use jump rings for attaching the wired beads or you can simply attach them through their loops. Slightly open a loop of a beaded wire and get it through the loops of another beaded wire, close the open loop using flat nose plier.

  4. Small 2014 03 02 135320 step 4

    Keep attaching the beaded wires until the bracelet reaches the required length.

  5. Small 2014 03 02 135439 step 5

    If you think that the beaded wire chain has reached the required length for the bracelet, wrap it around your wrist to make sure. Keep the length at least 2 inches extra, Finally join the beaded wires of both ends through their loops.

  6. Small 2014 03 02 140100 step 6

    Now wrap it, wear it and enjoy :)
