I also used some bracelet findings and a bracelet with frames (purchased at Micheal's for $2).
The tools I used were wire cutters, a beading pliers and jewelry and metal glue.
The first step was to cut off the backs of the earrings. I needed a little extra muscle for this job so I recruited my husband.
I put a "glob" of glue on the back of the earring and pressed it on to one of the bracelet frames.I followed these steps until all frames had an earring glued to it.
The last step was adding the bracelet findings (this could also have been the first step - I prefer to add them at the end).
Here is my completed bracelet.
This would be a great project and gift for a niece, daughter or granddaughter if you used your grandmother's costume jewelry. It's not very expensive to do and requires about fifteen minutes to complete. I can't wait to wear mine!
