Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

These instructions will make a 7 inch bracelet. To modify the length, adjust the length of Opelon cord and the number of beads accordingly.
  1. Cut a piece of Opelon stretch cord about 10 inches long. Place a bead stopper 2 inches from one end.
  2. String 14 skull beads onto the cord in random color order, then remove the bead stopper.
  3. Tie an overhand knot to close the bracelet, then double-knot it. Using your scissors, cut off the excess Opelon cord about 1/8 inch from the knot.
  4. Open a jump ring. Slide it through the loop at the top of the TierraCast sacred heart pendant, then close the jump ring around the cord of the bracelet between any two skull beads. All done!
