If you want to learn how to make a charm bracelet, you'll be happy to learn it's quite simple to do.
Charm bracelets are perfect gifts for those who want to share a sentimental reminder of a relationship or specific memories.
Consider making charm bracelets for close friends and relatives, searching for the perfect charms to honor accomplishments and spark memories.
To make a charm bracelet, you'll want to head down to your local craft shop and pick up the following supplies: a roll of wire (21-gauge wire is usually best for this kind of bracelet), a ring, a lobster clasp, simple beads and spacers, charms, small wire cutters and a pair of needle nose pliers.
You'll want to cut yourself eleven to twelve pieces of 21-gauge wire, each 1 1/4 inches long to use in your bracelet and arrange your supplies within easy reach.
Using your needle nose pliers, you'll want to bend one end of a piece of wire such that you curl the wire into a small loop at one end of the wire piece.
Bend the wire around until the loop is centered at the end of the wire piece, like a mini lollipop.
This will act as a stopper at the end of the piece of wire, keeping your beads on.
Now string anywhere from one to three beads on the wire.
Now use your pliers to curl the other end of the wire piece until it also forms a loop, which you will want to center.
