Colour Me Red

STEP ONE

Thread each bead onto a headpin and create a loop at the top using round nose pliers. The five large glass beads will need to be placed on a 63mm headpin; all other beads can be threaded onto a 22mm headpin. See Diagram 1.

Open a 4mm jumpring and attach to the hole at the top of a metal dagger, then close the jumpring. Repeat for all metal daggers.

Hint – To open the jumpring, hold onto it near the join with your pliers. (Flat/Chain nose are usually best, but round nose pliers can also be used). With your other set of pliers, open the jumpring by pulling one side of the jumpring towards you, while moving the other in the opposite direction. Use one pair of pliers to hold the jumpring while attaching the components.

To close the jumpring, use the technique described above in the opposite way. Push the sides of the jumpring in together to ensure the ring is completely closed.

STEP TWO

This bracelet is comprised of four separate jumpring patterns, which we have labelled parts A, B, C and D. You will need to create six sections of the part A pattern, and five sections of each B, C and D pattern. When it comes to connecting your bracelet, it will literally be connected according to this pattern – A, B, C, D, A, B, C, D etc.
