Materials
Materials Needed:
1 x charm bracelet ( BRCSP )
30 x head pins ( HPSP )
10 x 5mm jump rings ( JR5SP )
30 x 6mm Cobalt Blue Crystal Bicone Beads ( CPB630240-12 )
10 x ( MT1CB-100 )

3g Size 8/0 Black Metallic Seed Beads ( M801 )
Tool Required
1 Pair of side cutters ( BEESC )
Instructions
1. Thread one seed bead, one crystal bead, one seed bead into a head pin, and trim 8mm above the bead (photo 1)
TIP: Keep your head pin off cuts, you will need one to make a jump ring for your necklace. They are handy to keep for future projects to make into more jump rings, or eye pins!
2. Using chain nosed pliers fold over the top section of the head pin (photo 2)
3. Use round nosed pliers to turn a neat loop to finish one crystal charm (photo 3)
4. Repeat these steps until you have 30 crystal bead charms (or however many you would like) We made 15 crystal charms with Black Metallic seed beads and 15 with Metallic purple seed beads (photo 4)
5. Lay out your charm bracelet, using chain nosed pliers, open up 1 jump ring, use this to attach a star charm into a link of your charm bracelet, close the jump ring. We attached it the larger of the two sizes of link on the bracelet. Using chain nosed pliers open the loops of 2 x purple seed beads crystal charms and 1 x black seed beads crystal charm, loop them onto the next large link on your charm bracelet charms, close the loops.

6. Continue adding a star charm to alternate large links on your charm bracelet, and three crystal charms to the other large links Alternate the seed bead colours so the colours are distributed evenly ( photo 6 )
