How to do it
1. Cut three 20cm pieces of wire and assemble them in a crimp bead forming a loop. Squeeze the crimp bead using flat nose pliers as shown.
2. Insert an eye pin in the loop made from the assembled wires. Thread a metal cone onto the eye pin.
3. Use round nose pliers and twist the end of the eye pin to make an approx. 3mm extra loop at the opposite end approx. 3mm from the tip of the cone. Twist the pin a couple of times around itself downwards towards the cone. Cut off the end if necessary.

4. Thread beads onto the three wires. When the wires are full, assemble the wire ends in a crimp bead making a loop and squeeze. Then attach an eye pin onto the loop and a metal cone using the same procedure as described in paragraph 3.

5. Attach a lobster claw clasp and a round jump ring as the fastener at one end and a round jump ring and a piece of jewellery chain at the other end. The jewellery chain enables the bracelet to be extended, however, it may not be needed.
Another variant Thread beads onto a round piece of elastic cord and tie a double knot.
