Cynthia was so inspired by Dakota Stones druzy beads, she had to make two bracelets with them. The brass bracelet pairs the druzies with Czech glass flowers and Rose Gold crystal bicones for a warm and magical look. The silver bracelet brings in crystal Iridescent Light Blue pearls for a cool style. Learn Cynthia's design process for making bracelets like these in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Cut a length of jewelry wire approximately ten inches long. Slide a TierraCast 2x2mm brass oxide brass crimp tube onto the wire followed by half of the TierraCast brass oxide pewter heirloom clasp set. Bring the wire back through the crimp tube and crimp in place. Hide the crimp with a 3mm antique brass crimp cover.

Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
