Czech glass UFO beads - 1 strand
1 Tierracast spacer bead
5 Tierracast heishi bead
1/2 strand of pacific blue apatite tiny teardrops
head pins
1 Mykonos toggle clasp
4 Mykonos gold drops
1 Mykonos gold pinch bead

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Cut enough wire to fit around your wrist, add a couple of inches extra in length to each side.

Step 2

Create 10-12 bead charms using the pacific apatite teardrops. Slide a teardrop onto a head pin. Create a loop at the top with pliers. Wrap the wire tail around the base of the loop ad trim with wire cutters. Follow the tip below if you need more info.

Step 3

Slide the beads on in the order shown.

Step 4

To add the closure, slide one toggle loop onto the wire. Bring the wire down and wrap it around the base of the toggle loop. Be sure to leave it loose enough so it doesn't over tighten your beads. Do the same on the other side. Trim any extra wire off. Use pliers to press down th cut wire so it doesn't scratch you.
