Leftovers Bracelet

This DIY is for those forgotten beads and chains - the beads and chains that almost made it to a piece of jewelry but fell short at the last moment.

This is their last chance.

I present to you the leftovers bracelet:






For this DIY, you will need:

  • Assorted leftover chains
  • Assorted leftover beads
  • Clasps
  • Wire or a headpin (not pictured)
  • Jump rings

Step 1: Play around with your materials and try to figure out what looks good together. In my case, I ended up not using the black chain!


Step 2:  Add your beads to your wire or headpin in whatever order you like! Snip off the excess and make a loop at the end.



Step 3: Add a jump ring and attach the chains to the beaded portion. Make sure the chains are long enough to fit your wrist. If not, attach different types of chains together!


Step 4: Attach jump rings to both sides of the bracelet and add your clasps. 

And there you have it!  
A way to give all those random scraps of jewelry another chance!
