Created by: Polly Nobbs-LaRue

Designer Tips

Set link on leather bracelet, and use a sharp pencil, or fine-point non-smudging marker, to make a dot at each spot to punch.
Rotate leather hole punch to smallest setting, and carefully punch holes.
Click into the rivet below, and follow the steps in the "more details" section for setting these 2-part rivets.
Optional: Use bracelet-bending pliers to gently shape the link into a smooth wrist-shaped arc.
