A House Made of Straw - D.I.Y. Charm Bracelet

You will need (clockwise from top left):

- Jewelry pliers

- A chain bracelet

- Jump rings

- Some pretty beads

- Eye pins

- A couple of old pendants to use as charms

Step one:

Create your own charms by threading some beads onto the eye pins.

Remember to leave some room at the top so you can bend the eye pins onto the bracelet.

Use the jewelry pliers to make a loop at the end of the eye pin.

Step two:

Hook a jump ring onto each of the pendants. You can use your jewelry pliers to open and close the jump rings.

Step three:

Arrange the charms on the chain bracelet and use your jewelry pliers to tighten the loops on the eye pins and close the gaps on the jump rings.

All done!
