D.I.Y Stone & Feather Bracelet

        Have that problem when you're scrolling through Pinterest and you see that adorable bracelet you're just dying to have.Turns out this bracelet is either sold out on Etsy or on a Kardashian budget?

I started making my own jewelry for these exact reasons!

I'm going to show you how to make a beautiful bracelet without breaking your bank!

Materials

-Spray Paint (I use Rust-Oleum Metallic Finishes,they give you the best shine without the dullness)

-Closure Finding

-Charm Cap

-Small Feather(Optional)

-Small Stone

-Jewelry Glue

-Small Jewelry Pliers

-Small stringed stones OR Beads

The first thing I did was Spray paint my rocks/beads.Allow enough time to dry.Then I take the end of my string and tie it off to my closure.Can be a straight closure with no opening or a regular clasp closure,whatever you prefer.I hate hassling with trying to get a clasp ending on, I prefer to just slide on and go,In which case, make sure your bracelet is big enough to easily slide on and off. 

       

Now I get my cap ready and glue my feather to the back of my stone with jewelry glue.Easy Peasy.

      

This part is a little tricky,but nothing a newbie can't handle.I take my cap and find a good spot on my stone that I can connect it to. Apply a little bit of your jewelry glue to the inside of the cap and place on top of stone.allow to dry.

( Because my stone was an odd shape, I took my little pliers and gently pinched the cap around my stone to give it a more "fitted" look. Again, this part is entirely optional,and only needed if you have the same problem)

     

Now attach your charm to your bracelet and Waa-Laa! You have a gorgeous, one of a kind piece, that looks expensive,but can be made with cheaply, and in a short amount of time.

Now go show off your masterpiece you little ar-teest!
