Simple Semi Precious Bracelet - 5 Minute Make
Difficulty: Beginner
Stretch bracelets have to be one of the simplest jewellery making projects of all time. All you need is elastic cord and some pretty beads for an instant bracelet. Create this fab little bracelet using our stunning African Bloodstone that will only take you a couple of minutes to complete!
Tip: Make sure your Jump Ring will pass through your charms by checking the Loop Hole size against the gauge/thickness of your Jump Ring. Ensure your Jump Ring is large enough to encase the Curved Tube Bead whilst carrying the 2 Charms.
Products required:

Step 1
Cut approx 7" of elastic, or the amount you think will be adequate for your wrist size.
Step 2
Thread approx. 17 beads onto the elastic cord (adjust quantity to fit your wrist).
Step 3
Next, thread on your tube bead.
Using pliers, add your charms to a jump ring and slip this ring over the curved tube bead.
Step 4
Finish the bracelet by knotting the two ends of elastic together with a surgeon's knot.
If you wish, add a drop of glue to the knot for extra security.
Hide the knot inside of the tube bead.

"Just used my new kumihimo handle and weighted bobbins and they are great. My kumihimo has never been so neat and the thread/ weave so tight. It's great."
