Method
1. Begin by using the jumplocks to attach the charms to the charm bracelet
2. Next thread the 6mm Fuschia bicones onto the headpins and attach them to the charm bracelet by making wire wrapped loops (click here for a free wire wrapped loop video tutorial), making sure you space them out evenly along the length of the bracelet.
3. Thread the 8mm Swarovski Crystal Pearls onto headpins and attach them to the bracelet by making wire wrapped loops, making sure that you space them out evenly along the length of the bracelet.
4. Take the Flower Beads and the remaining bicones (erinite, fuschia and topaz) and thread them onto the headpins (1 bicone followed by 1 flower bead on each headpin), don't worry too much about which colours you put together this is a random design and all the colours will tone in together on the finished bracelet.
5. Attach the flower beads and bicones to the bracelet by making wire wrapped loops - make the bracelet nice and full by attaching at least two to each link.
