Mickey Head Button Fringe Bracelet Instructions

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

I didn't want to keep hijacking the other DISNEY SWIRL BRACELET THREAD. so I figured I would post it here.

Nicole, Here are the instructions in info as promised

Alright these are the photos of the one I made.

Here is What You Will Need:
2 Pairs of Jewelry Pliers
1 Pair of wire cutters

You will have quite a bit of stuff left over, but here is a general listing and price guide to make this bracelet. You will also need your jewelry making tools (Prices are based on Hobby Lobby NON-Sale* priced items)

1> Pack of jewelry Chain (buy whichever you would like, but they sell it in the beading/findings aisle) 2.99
1> Pack of Clasps (they come in a pack of 2) .99
1> Pack of 70pc Head Pins (2inch) 2.99
1> Pack of Mickey Head Buttons (in the scrapping section) 3.99
1>Small pack of O-Rings (small/medium sized) .99
1>Tube of misc. swirl and glass beads 2.99
1>SMALL pack of small crystal beads (i used clear like in the picture)1.99
1> Small pack of misc. buttons (scrapbooking section and I added these extra, not in the original bracelet) 3.99
1> Small pack of colorful round beaded beads (the big clunky ones in the picture i added these myself too) .99
I also added the green mickey head beads, just to make the fringe bracelet a little chunkier

TOTAL: 17.00-22.00 (this depends on the added 3.99 buttons & Clunky round beaded beads)

It takes about 2hrs to put it together.

AND you will have some crystal beads, head pins, beaded beads,swirly beads buttons and chain left over. You will NOT have any mickey buttons left.


NOTE: On www.HobbyLobby.com there is a coupon for 40% any one item. I used it on the Mickey head buttons as they were the priciest items*

The instructions will be the same whether it is for a mickey head button or a bead, So you will see both in the photos.

This is what you will have for each piece.

You wil then take the head pin and put the small bead on first(make sure you have it go all the way to the flat head of the pin) Then pop on the button or swirl bead of your choice.

Then it's time to make a wrap with the excess wire. First bend it to where you would like the wire to form the hole and begin your tight wrap. (I go around 3 times). In this photo you will see the excess wire AFTER the wrap. You will then use your wire cutters to cut the excess wire. Use your needlenose pliers to get the jagged end down tight against the wrap.

You will take the O-ring now and open it with your pliers and slip the bead or button inside! If it's the mickey head button, add it to the chain and close it up as shown If it's the bead, I usually put 2-3 beads on an O-ring to bulk it up and make the bracelet ALOT chunkier!

I hope this helps someone!!
