Aphrodite Fairy Bracelet

---

Instructions

Either make or buy a SP large link toggle bracelet, thread evenly coloured choice cord fix to the ends or toggle links by knotting securely, I personally glue my knots to prevent them coming undone. Decide on larger charms or pendants you wish to use, I usually choose 1 or 2 larger focal charms for effect, however this has several, (personal choice) add these first, evenly spaced with split/jump rings, tighten with jewellery making pliers. I added lampwork toadstool & ladybird with split rings & connected by a lobster clasp to 1 end of the bracelet near the toggle, this can be removed & used elsewhere if the wearer feels they are too heavy, dangly of may break in everyday use. Then choose theme matching, smaller charms & details in the same way to load your bracelet & attach evenly spaced! make sure all your charms are secured & tightened or they will fall off & the bracelet will loose effect & they should hang down in the same direction!

What was your inspiration?

My theme is fairies & this is the 8th design in my series of Flower Fairies Fantasy Gardens, Design Album on facebook @https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.151210354951591.38007.135861086486518 All designs are one of a kind, unique & are handmade to my design & also have been contributed to via custom orders. They are made to sell or have been made/sold for custom oders! Please visit to see the other varieties offered in this range! :)

What are you most proud of?

My fairies range has become very popular & almost as soon as I have posted another design in the series, if not before, they have been sold!! I am still relatively a beginner & don't have much confidence in my work when I have seen some awesome creations by very talented people to compete with, so every time a new piece sells I feel very honoured, flattered & proud!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Prepare your project! Colour match your materials & try to stick to your colour choice! Use a theme base of something that takes your interest & find different variety pieces that fit that theme & buy in different colour varieties then the same design can be recreated in a different colour choice for variety! Don't live by rules, try new things as you go along & have fun doing it or you will loose interest very quickly! :)
