Bracelet Connector

I have been in search for the Bracelet Connectors that replace the Watch Face for your watchband.  I think they are adorable and a great way to change its look.  So if anyone has any tips on where to get some please e-mail me some tips.   

•  Well, with no luck in finding them I decided to get creative on my own.  This is what I came up with!

 

So the tools you will need are:  Wire Cutters, Nail, Metal File, Hammer, and a pendant.

 

 

So the first thing that I did i took my pendant and cut off the top piece where you would strand your necklace to make it a pendant.

 

 

 Next, I took my nail and I lined up the pendant where I wanted to make the hole.  It was easy on this pendant because it had some designs so I just counted the same amount of space for each side.  *Note that when your hammering your nail into the metal make sure that you get it as close to the edge of the pendant as possible.  I didn't do that the first time and my Lobster claws bent when I took the band on and off.

 

Last, I cut off the excess metal with my wire cutters and then filed down the pieces so that it doesn't scratch your skin.

 I got a few other ideas for more Bracelet connectors but that will be another post.  Happy Beading!!!
