Although this bracelet looks quite fancy, it’s really a simple project to put together. The fun part is choosing all your different beads to get a nice ombré blend.

Having the beads all the same type: crystals, and having the same spacer between each one gives this piece unity.

The rest is just stringing and adding crimps & crimp covers.

Materials:

• 9 8mm crystal roundels in each of seven colors, graduating from purple to blue to green
• Antique Gold Daisy Spacer Beads 4mm
• Bead Stringing Wire
• 6 crimps
• 6 wire protectors
• 6 crimp covers
• multi loop connector bar set with 3 loops and toggle clasp

Tools:

• chain nose pliers
• crimping pliers
• wire cutters
• One Step Crimper (optional, but useful!)
• Bead Stoppers

Directions:

1. Cut 3 9-inch pieces bead stringing wire. String on 3 beads of each of the seven colors, each separated by a daisy spacer. Use bead stoppers to hold beads on ends of wire.
2. Measure strand of beads and add or remove beads so strand is one inch shorter than desired bracelet length.
3. Repeat pattern of first strand to string other two strands.
4. Onto one end of a beaded strand slide a crimp and a wire protector. Slide the wire protector onto a loop of a three-hole connector and slide wire end back through the crimp. Use crimping pliers or One Step Crimper to flatten crimp. Trim off excess wire and cover with a crimp cover.
5. Repeat to add a wire to each hole of three-hole connector. Add other ends of wires to other connector, being sure strands are lying parallel and not twisted.
