This bracelet is made to about 6 inches. To extend the length to fit a larger wrist, simply add more jump rings to the ends. This stunning bracelet is part of a set. For instructions on how to make the matching necklace, click Three Strand Pretty Purple Necklace. Step one: Begin by linking three sterling silver open jump rings and attaching them to the 9mm round toggle clasp. Cut two strands of ZambaPro 49 .014 jewelry wire to approximately 15 inches. Attach the wire to the jump rings using a 2x2mm sterling silver crimp tube. For detailed instructions on how to use a crimp tube, please visit the Handy Tips section of the Learning Center. Cover the tube with a sterling silver crimp cover. Step two: Slide both wires through a sterling silver rectangular faceted spacer. At this point you will separate the wires and add five Delica beads to either side. Take a 6mm purple velvet Swarovski bicone and put one wire through from each side so that they cross in the center (see diagram). Add eight Delica beads and then cross through a 6mm tanzanite bicone. Follow with eight Delicas and then cross the wires through an 8mm mystic black pearl, eight Delicas then an 8mm dark purple pearl, eight more Delicas and a mystic black pearl. Step three: As you cross out of the last pearl, string one purple velvet bicone on each side, then run the wires through a dark purple pearl, follow with a tanzanite bicone on each side and a mystic black pearl. This is your center bead, from here you simply reverse the pattern and work back toward your clasp.
