DIY Chain Bracelet Tutorial

Tweet

I've been getting interested in chainmail recently and was inspired to whip up this simplified chain bracelet. It's super easy to make.

For this bracelet you'll need:

1. Jump Rings. I picked up a value pack from the craft store and that was more than enough. You could also use different color jump rings to make a pattern.
2. A clasp. I chose a heart toggle clasp, but you can use any type of clasp you like as long as it has a loop to attach a jump ring.
3. Pliers to open and close your jump rings. 

1. Start with one end of toggle or clasp and attach a jump ring to it.
2. Add 3 more jump rings to the first one, then close it.
3. Open a jump ring and loop it through the 3 you just added.
4. Add an additional three jump rings, then close it.
5. Repeat this 3-1 pattern until you've reached the desired length.
6. End with one ring and attach the other part of the toggle or clasp.

And that's it! Now you're ready to add it to your army candy.
