This eye-catching bracelet design is sure to live up to its name and win the admiration of onlookers. Braided black leather provides a dramatic backdrop for brilliant crystals and lustrous sterling silver chain. With its intertwined appearance, this bracelet appears more complex than it actually is to construct. This design was inspired by the "Good Fortune" macramé bracelet.
Cut a piece of 4mm spooled braided leather in black to your desired length. Ours was 7-inches. Cut a piece of silver-plated large circle link chain that is approximately two inches longer than the braided leather. You will want the last link on each end of the chain to be the smaller, rectangular link. Next, thread the braided leather through the circular links on the chain.

Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
