Instructions:

1. Cut 1 foot of Soft Touch wire (XCR-5441). Use a bead stopper (XTL-3000) on one end, leaving about 2 and 1/2 inches of extra wire.


2. Thread following onto the Soft Touch wire: a sterling silver rondelle (BMB-5020), a Swarovski Rondelle (SWC-56136) another sterling silver rondelle and then a coin pearl. Repeat this pattern 8 times. End with a sterling silver rondelle, a Swarovski crystal rondelle and then another sterling silver rondelle. (Remember you can custom size this bracelet to fit your wrist by eliminating or adding a couple of beads)


3. Thread the wire through one of the 2x2 crimp tubes (FCR-1122); thread one end through loop on the round part of the toggle. Thread back through the 2x2 crimp tube and back through 3 to 4 beads. Then crimp with crimping pliers (see video). Cover with corrugated crimp cover (FCR-1030) using your crimping pliers to gently close it around the crimp, trim off excess wire.


4. Remove Bead Stopper from the other end of the wire. Thread the other end of the wire through loop of the T-bar and back through the 2x2 crimp tube and back through 3 to 4 beads. Pull gently on the end of the wire until beads are snug but flexible so the bracelet will bend freely around your wrist. Crimp the crimp tube with crimping pliers. Cover with corrugated crimp cover (FCR-1030) using your crimping pliers to gently close it around the crimp. Trim off excess wire.
