Instructions

Bracelet:

2. String one silver plated plastic bead on the eye pin and make a loop connecting to another eye pin, crimp excess wire. Repeat this step four times with other beads in this order: black glass bead, silver plated plastic bead, dark grey “beaded” bead and a black glass bead. The loop of the last eye pin should connect to the second part of the clasp.

Charms:
3. Slide one silver plated 10mm heart charm on a 4mm jump ring and close the ring. On a head pin string the 20mm red glass heart and the jump ring with the heart charm. Make a loop attaching the hearts to the bracelet between the last rose bead and the first silver plated bead of the bracelet.

4. Slide one silver plated 10mm heart charm on a 4mm jump ring and close the ring. On a head pin string one 16mm black glass heart and the jump ring with the heart charm. Make a loop attaching the hearts to the bracelet between the first silver plated bead and the first black glass bead.

5. String one red 8mm glass heart on a head pin and make a loop. Attach this charm together with the smaller (25mm) heart pendant to the bracelet between the first black glass bead and the second silver plated bead using a 10mm jump ring.

6. Slide one silver plated 10mm heart shaped charm on a 4mm jump ring and close the ring. On a head pin string the 16mm red glass heart and the jump ring with the heart charm. Make a loop attaching the hearts to the bracelet between the second silver plated bead and the dark grey “beaded” bead.

7. String one red 8mm glass heart on a head pin and make a loop. Attach this charm together with the bigger (35mm) heart pendant to the bracelet between the dark grey ?beaded? bead and the second black glass bead using a 10mm jump ring.

8. String one red 8mm glass heart on a head pin and make a loop. On a head pin string one 16mm black glass heart and the red heart charm you just made. Make a loop attaching the hearts to the bracelet between the second black glass bead and the clasp.

9. Slide the last silver plated 10mm heart charm on a 4mm jump ring and attach it to the eye of the last eye pin. String one black 16mm glass heart on a head pin and make a loop attaching it to the eye of the eye pin.
