Summer was all about stacks n’ stacks of thin, bright bracelets, but now we’re Fall-ing for all things bigger and bolder. Take it from icons like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc and Wonder Woman, powerful arm armor packs a stylish punch. Our crush of the moment is jewelry designer Jennifer Fisher, whose pieces prove that cuffs always contain the right stuff…so get inspired and create a next-level look that screams confidence. We dipped into our arm-candy jar and grabbed some lightweight pony beads to create a look that’s j’amazing.
To create: start with a colored bead and tie to one end of elastic thread as a “stopper”. String on an even number of gold and silver pony beads that measure to the circumference of your wrist. Start the 2nd row by adding another bead and stringing it through the second-to-last bead in the 1st row. Add another bead and string through every other bead of the previous row as you create your 3rd row. Continue this process until the cuff meets desired length, pulling tight as you go. Once you’re finished- connect by sewing the two ends to each other and tie the string to the “stopper” bead with a knot and then trim off the “stopper” bead.
