Rose Beaded Bracelet ~ Making Jewellery with Pandora Beads

Rose Pandora Style Bracelet

Rose Pandora Style Bracelet

It has to be the easiest way to make jewellery but don’t knock it, the simplicity of a Pandora style bead bracelet means that you can take it to bits and change the look in a heartbeat. Add a few extra beads or a different charm to the snake bracelet, or take off the beads and use them for a necklace  for a couple of days.

For the bracelet pictured, I have made charms out of Venetian Glass hearts, and little silver plated lockets, to give a twist of originality to my jewellery making.

Many more Pandora style jewellery kits are to be found at Bluestreak Beads

Hug & Kiss Bead

What a perfect little pressie for someone on Valentine’s Day! A bead with the symbol for a hug on one side and a kiss on the other. It certainly won’t break the bank at only £4.99

The “Hug & Kiss Bead” is hand made of sterling silver, thread it on to a simple snake chain or a rubber bracelet with silver clasps, pop it into a box and hand it over on the most romantic day of the year. I reckon it would be a lovely present to give your Mum…..Ah.

How about making a special necklace for a good friend instead of buying one from the cheap lightweight shiny mass-produced stuff available in the mega stores.

Here is an easy recipe for a pandora bead necklace that anyone can make up from a snake chain and a collection of beads and little bells.

Pandora Style Charm Bracelets

September 8th, 2009

If you are making a special bracelet for a friend’s birthday don’t forget to add something to mark it out as special  and a bit different.  Make a charm from a favourite bead, hang it on a jump ring and thread it on along with the ready made beads. Perhaps add a gift box charm to celebrate the event.

It is very easy to make jewellery using pandora style beads and snake chains, but that in no way diminishes the pleasure a cute and thoughtfully designed bracelet will bring. Look at our complete range of charm bracelet beads for inspiration
