Make a Beaded Bracelet Project: Multi Strand Rose Quartz Bead and Chain Bracelet
Pearls and chain go very well together and the pink adds to the beauty. Here is the necklace and earrings that match.
You’ll need these supplies:
27 – 6mm rose quartz rounds
16 – 5mm pearls; white
15 inches of chain; 3 – one inch pieces; 2 – 3.5 inch pieces; 2 – 3 inch pieces
2 – 5mm jumprings
1 lobster claw clasp with tab
beading wire
22 guage wire
2 crimp beads
You’ll need these tools:
wire cutters
crimping pliers
Directions:
1.) Middle strand: Crimp one end of the beading wire to a jumpring. Bead: three rose quartz beads and one pearl. Repeat 6 times. End with one rose quartz bead or one less pearl. Crimp wire end to the other jumpring.
2.) Chain strand #1: Attach one 3.5 inch chain to a wire wrap loop. Bead one pearl, one rose quartz, one pearl, wire wrap a loop with the 1 inch chain. On the other end of the 1 inch chain, bead one pearl, one rose quartz, one pearl, loop and wrap with a 3.5 inch chain.
3.) Chain strand #2: Attach one 3 inch chain to a wire wrap loop. Bead one pearl, one rose quartz, one pearl, wire wrap a loop with the 1 inch chain. Bead one pearl, one rose quartz, one pearl, wire wrap a loop with the 1 inch chain. Bead one pearl, one rose quartz, one pearl, wire wrap a loop with the last 3 inch chain.
4.) Lay the three strands out. You will need to attach the chain to the jumprings, leaving the beaded strand in the middle of the two chain strands. You’ll need to decide how much ‘play’ you will give the chains strands. Trim off any extra links.
