Fruit bracelet

Make your own summer jewellery - redcurrent or cranberries on a silver chain! Decorate in the same way your keyring, flip-flops or a zip on your bag.


Material and tools:

  • red beads (plastic or glass) size 5-8mm
  • green beads in the shape of diamond
  • black or dark brown rocailles beads
  • beads in the shape of leaf
  • a silver chain
  • silver hooks, 30 pieces
  • needles with tops about 20 pieces
  • a clasp

1 Thread a black bead on the needle then red and finish with a black one. Cut the extra of the needle about 5mm off the last bead. Use pliers with round point to twist the end of the needle into a little hook. Make 12-15 red redcurrants and 8-10 green ones.
2 Measure the length of the bracelet around your hand and cut off the extra. Use pliers to widen the hooks then fix on to the bracelet alternating red redcurrant, a green one and then a leaf.
3 Fasten the clasps at the ends of the chain.
More ideas: use the same technique to make a necklace, earrings, a decoration for your bag or a charm for keyring. Add one or two „blueberries" to the red beads.

Enjoy different fruit flavours!
