Curb Chain Bracelet
JEWELRY PROJECT AND CROSS STITCH CHART BY AGNES DELAGE-CALVET
Add a touch of Gipsy chic to your most basic casuals!
This bracelet's tones are warm and colorful and the golden highlights and curbchain framing the pattern enhance the bohemian feel. It combines a cross stitch base on an aida band and basic jewelery parts.
This project includes an extensive step by step-tutorial, with pictures for each stage, as well as a list of needlework and jewelry supplies (see detail below) and the corresponding cross stitch chart. Instructions are easy to follow, even if you have never made jewelry, however, basic jewelry tools such a wire cutter or flat nose pliers will be needed.
Cross stitching meets jewelry and fashion accessory making in this fun series of projects by French designer Agnès Delage-Calvet. They include headbands and various shapes of bracelets. Shown here is the Curb Chain Bracelet. Other projects are sold separately (see below).
