Utopia Ankle Bracelet
It’s very hard to keep Michelle from our filling department away from Swarovski Crystals. This week she fashioned a stunning anklet using our Cast Antique Gold Plated Bali Style Diamond Connectors and Stamped Victorian Scroll Connectors. The Chrysolite Opal and Crystal Bronze Shade bicones really coordinate beautifully with the gold plated findings. The finished length is approximately 10 ¼ inches.

Step 1. Onto each of two Eye Pins, slide one Crystal Bronze, one Heishi, one Chrysolite, one Heishi, one Crystal Bronze. Form a simple loop above the last Crystal by bending the Eye Pin 90 degrees with Flat Nose Pliers and curling into a tight loop with Round Nose Pliers.
Step 2. Twist open a Jump Ring and slide it through a loop on the Eye Pin and then through the loop on one piece of the Clasp. Twist the Jump Ring closed. Twist open another Jump Ring and slide it through the opposite side of the Eye Pin and through the loop of the second Eye Pin to connect them. Twist the Jump Ring closed.
Step 3. Twist open a Jump Ring and slide through the loop on the last Eye Pin and through the loop on the end of a Victorian Scroll. Twist the Jump Ring closed.
Step 4. Twist open a Jump Ring and slide it through the loop on the Victorian Scroll. Slide one Crystal Bronze onto an Eye Pin and form a simple loop. Slide the Jump Ring through this loop and twist closed. Twist open another Jump Ring and slide through the loop of the Eye Pin and through a loop on a Bali Diamond Connector. Twist the Jump Ring closed.
Step 5. Twist open a Jump Ring and slide it through the loop on the Bali Diamond Connector. Slide one Chrysolite onto an Eye Pin and form a simple loop. Slide the Jump Ring through this loop and twist closed. Twist open another Jump Ring and slide through the loop of the Eye Pin and through a loop on a Victorian Scroll Connector. Twist the Jump Ring closed.
Step 6. Repeat steps 1-5 to complete the other side of the anklet using the other piece of the Clasp. Enjoy!
