Easter Parade Bracelet Instructions Designed by Cheri Carlson
Celebrate Easter with sweet pinks and purples and a dash of bright silver. This charm bracelet sparkles from every angle, and you'll find cute critters dangling alongside Easter eggs and brilliant Swarovski components. Add it to someone's Easter basket or make it as an accessory for yourself!
Step one: Apply white gilders paste to the surface of the 15x12mm antique silver-plated bunny charm. Learn more about using gilders paste here. You can use a sealer to protect the gilders paste if you wish — the charm may show wear on the raised spots over time, otherwise. Set aside and allow to dry.
Step two: Create wrapped loops with the 24 gauge sterling silver 1.5-inch ball-end head pins for five of the Swarovski 6mm faceted rounds in Rose Water Opal, three of the Swarovski 6mm faceted rounds in Provence Lavender, five of the Swarovski 6mm faceted rounds in Tanzanite AB and three of the Swarovski 6mm faceted rounds in Light Rose AB. AFind out how to make wrapped loops in our Handy Tip. Set the wrapped loops aside. They will be referred to as the Rose Water Opal dangles, Provence Lavender dangles, Tanzanite AB dangles and Light Rose AB dangles within these instructions.
Step three: Cut a length of the silver-plated cable chain approximately 7 inches long or 30 links. You can adjust this size to fit your wrist. Attach the silver-plated small lobster clasp to one end using a 925/10 silver-filled 6mm open jump ring, 18 Gauge. For help using jump rings, please see our Handy Tip.
