Silver Liquid Bracelet

Step 1: Cut two pieces of beading wires, depending on your desired length plus 2 inches. Example: If your bracelet is 7", you should cut two 9" long beading wires.

Step 2: With the first strand insert the large glass beads, spacers and liquid silver beads. You can make your own pattern or follow the pattern on the picture then put a piece of tape on each end to secure the beads temporarily

Step 3: Make another strand with the other wire. Try to position the glass beads differently so they do not touch the other glass beads on the other strand. See bracelet photo for reference. Don't forget to secure the beads with a piece of tape.

Step 4: Remove the tape on one end of two strands and combine them by inserting one 3-4mm metal bead, one crimp bead, another 3-4mm metal bead and one oval jumpring.

Step 5: Loop the beading wires thru the oval jumpring and go back and re-thread the wires thru the 3-4mm metal bead, crimp bead and 3-4mm metal bead.

Step 6: Crimp the bead with your crimping tool.

Step 7: Braid the strands loosely to one another and then repeat Step 4, 5 and 6.

Step 8: Open the oval jumpring on one side and insert the clasp, open the other oval jumpring and insert round close jumpring.

Tip: Crimping tools has two slots, crimp the bead first with the inner slot, then crimp it again with the outet slot. This will make your crimp bead into a more rounded shape plus your wire will not slip out from the crimp bead.
