Bracelet Instructions:

1. Cut a 10” length of beading wire. Using a crimp tube, attach one end of the wire to a 4mm jump ring. 
2. Thread the bead pattern onto the beading wire. Attach the wire to a 6mm jump ring using a crimp tube. Attach a lobster claw clasp to the same 6mm jump ring.
3. Cut (3) 9” lengths of brown suede cord. Gather one set of ends together and attach a cord end.  Braid the cords together until the total length of braided cord is approximately 7” (including the length of cord inside the cord end). Trim the cords if necessary then attach a cord end.
4. Attach a 6mm jump ring to each cord end. Connect one cord end and jump ring to the 6mm jump ring from step 2.
5. Attach the other cord end and jump ring to a 2” length of extender chain. Attach the 4mm jump ring from step 1 to the same extender chain.
6. Make the butterfly beaded drop. Thread an e-bead then the butterfly onto a head pin and form a loop. Attach the drop to the last link of the extender chain.
