Silken Bouquet Bracelet Tutorial

Silken Bouquet Bracelet Tutorial

Created by: Rita Hutchinson


Designer Tips

  • Determine desired length of finished bracelet.
  • Subtract 1 1/4" from total desired length for connector piece.
  • Keeping toggle clasp parts attached, remove center section of toggle chain bracelet leaving equal lengths of chain for either side of the bracelet. You do not have to cut the chain links. You can open them like a jump ring and use this chain section for another project.
  • Attach the connecter to center section of chain and check fit before proceeding.
  • Wire wrap dangles directly onto chain links for added security. Six dangles were attached to every second link of chain.
  • Allow enough space at the clasp for the toggle to close correctly.
