Morganite & Aquamarine Bead Bracelet
This bracelet is so pretty with the shades of morganite and aquamarine beads varying from cream, pale pink, pale blue, bronze, and soft pistachio. It's easy to create this design and makes for a really eye-catching piece of jewellery that is perfect for the spring season.
Step by step instructions
1. Start by deciding what length you would like your bracelet. Measure the wire to fit your wrist and add a few extra cms to allow for the loop and some working room.
2. Using side cutters, cut your flex-rite wire to this length.
3. Thread one end of the wire through a crimp, the carabiner clasp and back through the crimp. Use snipe nose pliers or flat nose pliers to squeeze the crimp in place. You may choose to use crimping pliers instead to create a neat finish.
4. Thread on a crimp followed by the ten beads. Position centrally on the wire and pinch the crimp closed using snipe or flat nose pliers squeeze the crimp securely.
5. Thread on another crimp and squeeze the crimp together so that the beads lie securely on the wire.
6. To secure the other end, thread the wire through a crimp, add the jump ring and thread back through the crimp and check the bracelet for size, adjusting how much excess wire is beyond the crimp. As before use snipe or flat nose pliers to squeeze the crimp securely and use side cutters to cut off the excess wire.
Your bracelet is now complete!
