Using a pair of round nose pliers create a 90° bend in the ball pin above the bead cap. Holding the ball pin where you created the bend wrap the ball pin around the pliers to create a loop. Then wrap the ball pin around itself below the loop as many times as you can. Trim the excess ball pin you could not wrap around.

2. Twist open one 6mm jump ring. Add the loop of the crystal drop you just created and the last loop of one end of the cable chain. Twist the jump ring closed.

Step Two - Create Bracelet:Take one end of your Buddy Braids wire and thread 1 - crimp tube approximately an inch from the end. Thread the loop of your lobster clasp. Thread the end back through the crimp tube. Using crimping pliers (or any pliers you have) squeeze the crimp tube about a 1/8th of an inch away from the clasp. Leave the excess you will thread the beads over both ends.

3. Thread a crimp tube and the last loop of the extension chain that does not have the crystal drop.

4. Take your Buddy Braids and string back through the crimp bead. String the Buddy Braids back through several beads. Pull the Buddy Braids tight making the chain link close to the crimp bead. While holding the Buddy Braids use your pliers and squeeze the crimp bead so the Buddy Braids will not pull out. Trim the extra Buddy Braids.

You’re done!! This kit will make a bracelet that is 7 ½inches to 9 ¼ inches long.
