Suede Leather Charm Bracelet Crafting!

Recently, I bought some wraparound suede leather charm bracelets, thinking that they would make a great addition to my store collection. These wraparound charm bracelets were made popular by stars like Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan and Rachel Bilson.

However, when the charm bracelets arrived, the charms on them looked too cheap for my liking. Here's what the original bracelet looked like:

I decided to remake the charm bracelets the Moonfire Charms way - with gemstones included! With an ocean theme in mind, I picked out the following charms. The gemstones used were Turquoise, Sodalite, Snow Quartz and Angelite. The charms include a toggle and clasp - I tried wearing the bracelet but I found that the bracelet kept coming out unwrapped. With the toggle and clasp, the bracelet should be much more secure!

After about an hour or so, here's the final product! I must say, it does look good!

What's more, I got to recycle the original charms! I used the original charms to craft a charm necklace for a special little girl. She picked out the charms she liked, and I made the necklace and gifted it to her. She absolutely loved it!

The ocean themed charm bracelet will be on sale soon, keep a lookout for it! In the meantime, I'll be having fun crafting more charm bracelets! I already have more themes in mind ;-)
