Step-by-Step Instructions:
|
Step 1: Tie your chosen length of waxed linen to each loop of the TierraCast 3-1 link- so three pieces of waxed linen of equal lengths. Make sure to use more waxed linen than you think you'll need to ensure you have enough length to make secure knots. |
|
|
Step 2: On the first strand, I used the black gold amazonite rondelles. String on 6 rondelles, and then a gold spacer. Repeat 2 more times and slide on the gold cowry shell. Then slide on 3 more sets of rondelles and spacers. Tie a knot at the end and tie to the other end of the clasp. |
|
|
Step 3: On the next strand I used 9 green aventurine rondelles with a sliver spacer in between each. Make sure to tie a knot on both sides of the beads so they remain in the middle of the strand. Attach the end to the other clasp. |
|
|
Step 4: On the third strand I used Fancy Jasper rondelles and a beaded link in the middle, following the same steps as step 2. When your finished, apply a small drop of glue to all of the knots. Attach a jump ring & lobster clasp to the 3-1 link. |
|
Step 5: For the Lotus bracelet, take one piece of black waxed linen, Tie the end to a jump ring with a secure knot. String on 1 round 6mm lava rock, a silver spacer, 1 lava rock, 1 spacer, 4 lava rocks, 1 spacer, 5 dalamtion jasper rondelles, and a bail. repeat the same pattern on the other side of the bail. Tie the other end of the waxed linen to a jump ring. Secure all knots with a small drop of glue. Attach the lotus charm to the bail with a jump ring. |
|
Step 6: For the last bracelet, I used the picture jasper rondelles with a piece of brown waxed linen following the steps from step 2. |
