Featured Project: Rose Lampwork Bracelet

We are right in the middle of the cold months, and we think there is no better way to add to your favourite Winter coat than with an elegant Rose Lampwork Bracelet.

Our fantastic team at Empire Beads have put together this Rose Lampwork Bracelet featuring our Glass Pearls and Czech Glass Lamp Beads. The bracelet is a beautiful and classic design that you can make in the comfort of your home.

The trick to this gorgeous project is to create the bead sequence of two pearls, a lamp bead, two pearls and a diamante spacer. The materials we have used in this project include our Soft Flex Wire, Jump Rings Gold, Bar Ends in Gold, a Parrot Clasp, Split Rings in Gold, Glass Pearls in Rose Cream, Czech Glass Lamp Beads in Pink and Diamante Spacers in Gold. Our Carlotte Crimps and Round Crimps have been threaded onto the Soft Flex to hold the bracelet together at the ends.

To make the Bracelet, repeat the step of attaching the crimps at one end of the wire three times. Repeat the bead sequence twice, with the final time leaving out the diamante spacer. End the strands by stringing on the Carlotte and Round Crimps. Then use the other rows on the Diamante Spacers to join the wires together.

To finish off the bracelet, place the Bar Ends at each end of the bracelet and attach the wires to the Bar End by looping the Carlotte Crimps through a hole on the Bar End. Attach the Parrot Clasp to one Bar End using a Jump Ring and attach the Split Ring to the other Bar End using a Jump Ring. Now you are finished!

This project only took our team about 45 minutes to create and the only tools required are a pair of Round Nose Pliers, Chain Nose Pliers and Side Cutters. We hope you enjoy making and wearing this stylish bracelet!
