Step one: Cut 10 inches of ZambaPro 49 .019 jewelry wire. Using a 2x2mm copper antiqued crimp tube and an open jump ring, attach the bar end of the antique copper radiant toggle clasp. For help using crimp tubes please see our Handy Tips section of the Learning Center.
Step two: String an opaline lavender/mint roundelle, three bronze head-drilled keshi pearls, another opaline roundelle, a Fire Designs hand blown furnace glass bead, a maroon Swarovski pearl and another furnace glass bead. Add an opaline roundelle, three keshi pearls, another opaline roundelle and the porcelain green tree disk. Be sure to use matching furnace glass beads on both sides of the bracelet.
Step three: Reverse the pattern starting with the last opaline roundelle to finish the bracelet. Crimp the remaining wire to the loop end of the clasp and trim any excess wire.
