How to make a crystal sparkle chain maille bracelet - jewellery making tutorial

I loved the idea of Sarah Millsop’s Crystal Sparkle Chain Maille Bracelet, so I decided to give this bracelet a go using the new CrystaLove™ bicone range!

I chose to recreate this with shades of blue bicones and gold-plated findings and I was really pleased with the end result. However, you could try it with silver, rose gold or any colour combination you wish. The sparkly shades of blue caught my eye straight away, it’s the perfect bracelet to wear on a night out or to take on your Summer holiday as it adds a bit of glamour to any outfit.

Watch our Take A Make Break Tutorial below to learn how to create this dazzling bracelet.

Materials:

CrystaLove™ Bicones in size 4mm. I chose 2 shades of blue, but you could use more than 2 colours if you wanted to.

Gold Plated Jump Rings 10mm
