You must have noticed, jewelry with white pearly beads are making a comeback! They say that fashion is an eternal restart and this pearl trend is the proof! So we decided to dedicate our February tutorial collection to white pearl beads. A perfect collection to adopt the Lady-Di style in a different way!
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to make a pearl bracelet with a PureCrystalbaroque pearl linked to two strands of chain with imitation freshwater pearls. Simple and discreet, you can wear it for everyday wear as well as to dress up an outfit for a special occasion. Quick and easy enough to make, you can follow the tutorial even if you are a beginner in jewelry making.
The bracelet has been designed with a pearly baroque in the center of the jewel and four pieces of chain on both sides of the bracelet. We suggest you place the baroque horizontally with the two ends of the round head nail on the right and left of it. For a more original variation, I suggest you place the baroque vertically with the two ends of the round head nail at the top and bottom. Add two pieces of chain on each side and continue the tutorial from step 5. It's up to you to choose the orientation of your bead!

Here are all the materials you will need to complete the tutorial. You can find the list at the bottom of the page.
To begin, take the size of your wrist by wrapping the chain around it and cut the desired length. Then divide this length into 4 equal parts.
For my part, this corresponds to 3 pieces of beads for each of the 4 pieces.
Set aside your 4 pieces of chain and take your pearly baroque and your round head nail. Insert your nail into the pearly baroque and make a loop at the end of your baroque.
If you don't know how to do this, I invite you to consult our technical sheet: Making a loop on a nail.
Here is the way toopen and close ringsopen. These are rings that are cut at one point and allow two elements to be connected.
The mistake that beginners make is to spread the two ends of the ring, except that this deforms the ring, making it oval, and it is then very difficult to restore it to a round shape.
The method is simple: rotate the two ends to one side and the other, slide the elements in, then close by rotating in the other direction. Make 1 or 2 light round trips so that the two ends are well face to face and touch.
Take a 3mm ring and open it. Slip two pieces of chain and the pearly baroque into it. Then close the ring. Do the same on the other side of the pearly baroque.
Take one end of your bracelet. Open the 5mm ring and slide the two ends of the chain into it and close it.
Now take the other end of your bracelet to add the clasp. To do this, open a 3mm ring and slip the clasp ring and two pieces of chain into it.
Your bracelet is finished!
