Hey there!
I actually made this bead and button bracelet a year or two ago but I thought I would share it now as it would be a great piece of jewelry to wear until Halloween.
Besides Halloween, you can make many versions of this bead and button bracelet for lots of holidays and in lots of different color combinations.
Supplies:
- 7″ charm bracelet or chain and clasp to make one in a different length
- beads
- 2 or 3 inch headpins
- 7mm jump rings
- small buttons
Here is a link to a video I made that will show you how to make the bracelet: Button Bracelet.
If you don’t want to watch the video the instructions are simple.
Open a jump ring and add a button to it, attach it to the chain or bracelet and close it again.
Add the beads on a headpin and attach to the chain my making a simple loop. Here is my simple loop video.
I always leave several links near the clasp empty in order to make it easier to get on and off.
This bracelet takes all of 30 minutes to put together and has lots of impact.
Easy, colorful and seasonally correct… What more could you want?
Besides candy corn.
