Green Paua Shell & Leaf Bracelet

How gorgeous is this green paua shell cabochon? A perfect stone for a bracelet design that really stands out with its neon colour! We love the combination with our vermeil gold leaf charm too.
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Apply glue (we recommend Devcon Epoxy glue) to the setting and set the paua shell cabochon in place, wipe off any excess glue with a cloth then leave to dry.
2. Cut the bracelet chain in half using side cutters.
3. Twist open a jump ring and attach to the end of the chain link and hook onto the leaf charm before closing.
4. Repeat step 3 on the other side using another jump ring.
5. Twist open another jump ring and attach the setting and to the bottom of the leaf charm before closing.
