Making pearl power bracelet

Gemstone bracelet made up of stretchable elastic cord. They are called as “Power bracelet” is because every gemstone is said to have some mystical and healing power. Pearl is said to have many healing and they can eliminate emotional imbalance. Pearls are said to help in self-improvement. As a symbol of modesty, chastity and purity, pearl emblems love, success and happiness.

For making a pearl power bracelet; you will require thick elastic cord, pearls and one large pearl with large hole or different bead with three holes. You just require simple scissors to make this bracelet. Make sure that cord fits through the pearls. You can use pearls of your choice, but for making bracelets, usually 8mm pearls are used.

Now cut the piece of cord that is the length of finished bracelet and leave out an additional 4 inches. Simply string the pearls onto the cord. You can put tape on one end while stringing so pearls will not fall off while stringing.

You can do finishing of bracelets by three different ways, depending upon supplies available. If you have a three hole bead then just put the cord through both sides of bead and up through the top. Then tie overhand knots. If you don’t have bead with three holes then; just crisscross the cord within the end pearl and then pull it up and through another bead making a knot. If you are going to use this technique then choose a color of cord that complements or matches the gemstone. Third method is that at the end of bracelet just tie a small knot of two end and then slide one more pearl and then tie an overhand knot. For making overhand knot you can use an awl or a small gauge knitting needle. Try different finishes, to see which looks better.
