Hugs and Kisses Bracelet

Up | Previous | Next
pad

Show your love with this bracelet that declares "XOXOXO". Let your loved one carry your hugs and kisses around with them wherever they go!

Step one: Cut a length of .019 Soft Touch jewelry wire to approximately 9 inches. Attach one end of the wire to a sterling silver heart toggle clasp using 2x2mm sterling silver crimp tubes. For detailed instructions on how to use a crimp tube, please visit the Handy Tips section of the Learning Center.

Step two: Begin by stringing a 3mm Swarovski bicone light Siam crystal followed by a 3mm sterling corrugated saucer bead, repeat those two beads again then add a 4mm light Siam crystal and a 4mm sterling corrugated saucer. Follow that with alternating X and O sterling silver heart-shaped letter beads separated by 4mm sterling silver saucer beads. You will use seven of each letter.

Step three: Finish the pattern the way it started with the 4mm light Siam bicone, followed by a 3mm saucer, 3mm bicone, 3mm saucer and finish with a 3mm Swarovski light Siam bicone. Crimp the end to the other end of your toggle clasp.

Step four: For an added touch, we made a dangle that attached to the loop on the heart of the toggle clasp. To make the dangle, string a 3mm corrugated sterling saucer bead, a 3mm Swarovski light Siam crystal, another saucer and a 4mm Swarovski faceted round crystal AB on a 2-inch head pin. Attach it to the toggle using a wrapped loop. For detailed instructions on how to make a wrapped loop, please visit the Handy Tips section of the Learning Center.
