And yes, another jewel with XXL links. The big link trend is not going away. This is a perfect DIY jewelry to add extravagance and sophistication to a look. Opting for original, ready-made jewelry comes at a price, but if you make it yourself, not only will you be able to create unique jewelry, in your own image, but it will also be much more affordable than in a luxury store. For this XXL trend bracelet, we opted for neutral colors that will work with most of your winter outfits, but feel free to change the colors. You can even put links of different colors on the same bracelet.
You can also customize this DIY bracelet by changing the charms used. In this design, we used 3 golden stainless steel charms: a heart, a lucky eye, and a Gemini zodiac charm. Choose symbols that speak to you from all our stainless steel charms and pendants. Pay attention to the size. Choose charms between 10 and 20 mm to have nice proportions on your jewel.

In this tutorial, you will only need to know two beginner jewelry techniques. The first is to know how to open and close a ring without distorting it. Click on the link to watch the video explaining this technique.
Add two 12 mm rings on the four large links.
You will connect the big links with 8 mm rings that you will fix on the 12 mm rings.
Connect the 4 big links like this.
On one side, add the clasp by connecting it to the rest of the bracelet with an 8 mm ring. On the other side, add a second 12 mm ring.
Remove the rings from the charms if they are already there and then use the purchased 4mm rings to attach the charms to the 8mm rings on the direction. Put them all on the same side of the bracelet.
