What you need
Safety Pins
Beads ( as much as you want)
Super Glue
Elastic cord (.7 mm 
Instructions
1. Open one of the safety pins, and thread beads onto the open prong, leaving enough space to refasten the pin. Repeat the process until all of the safety pins have been beaded.
2. Glue the pin so that it wouldn’t open when you’re wearing it.
3. Next, cut two 12โ pieces of elastic cord.
4. Thread one of the cords through the hole in the top of a safety pin, then through a spacer bead, and then through the hole in the bottom of another safety pin. Continue to thread in this manner until your bracelet is long enough to go around your wrist.
5. Then, take the second cord and thread it through the bottom of the bracelet, adding a spacer bead between each safety pin.
6. Finally, tie the ends of the bracelet together, and itโs ready to wear!

I’m not understanding how the cord works to string this together. The first cord goes through the top of the safety pin, add a spacer, and continue until the tops are done and repeat with the second cord on the bottom of the safety pins?
You place the cord into the top hole of the safety pin that forms once you have closed the safety pin. place a spacer bead. Then you take your next safety pin and thread the cord through the opposite end (the hole on the other end of your safery pin, NOT the top hole that forms once you close it.) Continue to thread your bracelet the same way, making sure to alternate between “top hole that forms when you close safety pin” and “bottom hole of safety pin”. i hope that cleared up your confusion, good luck!
This is such a great idea! I am so excited to try this!!! Thank you!
Amazing and unique! I am so excited to make this for many people!
I made these in the 80 In order for them not to rust, put transparent nail polish in the back

Oho
simply awesome!!!
THIS IS SO COOL!!!! i can noT wait to try it! thanks soooooo much!!!!
I have a watch that is made like this – and I love it… at least until the inside of the bracelet started rusting. I was careful to take it off when working around water, but with the hot, humid weather we had… I think that was enough dampness to cause the problem. Now I need to figure out if there is a way I can fix this without restringing all the beads. hmmm…
This idea has been around since the 1970’s punk jewelry and still going strong. I made one for myself, everytime I wear mine, I end up making more and more. everyone want’s one or two. It is a show stopper.
i made one of these when i was younger and it had charms, bells, large beads, small beads, it was pretty outrages, sadly i lost it.
That’s amazing! xD <3
Hi, I used to sell these at high end boutiques. But I used larger silver ball spacer beads and high end crystal and other unusual beads. Love the colorful vibe of this bracelet!
they didn’t mention the spacers in the materials list
That’s so cute! But I don’t have enough safety pins. ๐ Nothing a little shopping can’t fix! :p ๐
That looks funky… wow i so what to do that and do it A.S.A.P!!!!!!

My aunt LOVES it! Thanks!
Awsome! Nice idea! Its my aunt’s birthday soon and I’m making one for her, but I wonder if I can skip the spacer bead part…
I love it! Where on EARTH did you get that idea?! So COOL! Yeah, well, you know, do I have to use the spacer beads? Is it OK without that?
nice
