Red Crystal and Brass Flower Bracelet

Tammy Powley
I don't think I use enough red in my jewelry or my wardrobe, and I'm not sure why. Red is such an wonderful and bright color that is always sure to be noticed. For this bracelet, I used square-shaped red crystal beads that have an Aurora Borealis (AB) finish on them, some brass components that allow you to put beads inside of them, and then finished it off with a flower toggle clasp.

You will need the following tools and supplies to make this bracelet:

23 - 6mm Red AB square-shaped crystal beads
14 - 4mm Copper daisy spacer beads
*4 Brass cube drawn beads
1 - 15x20mm Bronze oval flower toggle clasp
2 - 2x2mm Copper crimp beads
14 inches of Beading wire
Wire cutters
Chain-nosed pliers
2 Bead Stoppers
Crimping pliers

*The brass cube drawn beads came from B'Sue Boutiques.
