The other day I did a post on how I restrung my mosaic necklace to make it a little bit longer. Today I am going to show you what I have done
with the rest of the beads.
The simplest thing I did was to remove a whole lot of beads
from the other necklace length until it fit around my wrist before I knotted
and trimmed the string making a bracelet.
By taking one lenght of necklace and removing about half the beads (using same technique mentioned here) I was able to make a braclet without too much effort. |

I still have some beads remaining but it is not long enough
as it is to make another bracelet for my sister therefore I am going to wait
until I have a day off work (that is not a public holiday) where I can go to
the city to buy some silver so that I can make my sister a silver bracelet with
the beads, which will look very different from my own braclet.
Here is the mosaico bead set that I have now, including the extra beads remaining:
How many pieces of jewellery have you redesigned?

ReplyDeleteThe most creative I have gotten is taking my charm necklaces apart and changing up the pendants
Thanks :)
DeleteI love to change small things just to make them a little bit better for me rather than being left with something that is just okay :)
