Bon Bon Bracelet & Earrings
Starman TrendSetter Emi Yamada created the Bon Bon Bracelet & Earrings pattern. The bracelet works up quickly. The original design calls for 3mm Melon beads, but 3mm Bicone Crystals give the design extra sparkle.
Bracelet Materials & Sizing 17 6mm Round Beads 64 3mm Bicone Crystals 32 2mm Fire-Polished Beads 5 Grams 11/0 Seed Beads TOHO One-G Thread Clasp of Choice
Earring Materials & Sizing 6 6mm Round Beads 18 3mm Bicone Crystals 8 2mm Fire-Polished Beads 1 Gram 11/0 Seed Beads TOHO One-G Thread 2 Earwires 2 Jump Rings (optional) 2 Head Pins, 2-inch, 24 Gauge (optional)
Bracelet as instructed measures approx. 6.5" before clasp. Each beaded bead measures approx. 3/8". Adjust the length by adding additional beaded beads, or by adding seed beads at the clasp.
Earring length is approx. 1" before findings. Each beaded bead measures approx. 3/8". The pattern calls for assembling the earrings with a head pin. In the colorways displayed in the Bon Bon Bracelet & Earrings Gallery entries, I assembled the earrings with TOHO One-G Thread and attached them to the earwires with a jump ring. I also added an extra bicone crystal at the top of the earrings between two seed beads, instead of only one seed bead under the earwire.
This pattern is available as a FREE printed insert in your order, but you must choose it from the drop-down box when checking out.
