Tips
Try to include some plainer beads to
bring out the decoration of lampwork
beads.
Step One
Take one ready made plain charm bracelet with large links. Take a headpin and add a seed bead, then place a pink decorative bead on the headpin. Place another seed bead on top of the decorative bead and cut headpin to leave ΒΌ inch of wire. Make a loop with round nose
pliers and attach to centre of the chain.
Step Two
Take another headpin and using the same technique as above place a blue decorative bead on the opposite side of the link of the pinks bead just placed. Now add a blue bead charm asbefore to the same side a the pink bead charm in the same centre link. You should now have a pink and blue bead charm on one side and a blue bead charm on the opposite side of the link.
Step Three
Miss a link in the chain. Now take four shell discs. Thread each shell discs onto a separate
jump ring. Attach two of the jump rings on one side of the link and two on the opposite side.
Step Four
Miss a link and repeat the pattern as before, but when you come to place the next lot of shell
discs place a group of four Aqua shell discs. Go around the bracelet, decorating in groups of
three beads and alternating colored shell discs between pink and Aqua.
