Healing Stone Bracelets

Healing stone bracelets are easy and inexpensive to make. Even though they are said to have healing properties, their natural beauty is a gift in itself.

Equipment

  • Measuring tape
  • paper clip
  • Scissors

Materials

  • Stone Beads 8mm
  • Spacer Beads
  • Elastic Jewelry Cording
  • Clear Nail Polish or Super Glue

Instructions

  • Measure your wrist. Since this is elastic, it should fit most people. Add one inch to your wrist size. Mine was 6 inches so I created all the bracelets at seven inches long. 
  • Cut a piece of the elastic thread around 12 inches long so you have plenty of room to work with.
  • Use a paperclip at one end to keep the beads from falling off. You can also tie a different bead on the end, but I found it hard to keep it in place.
  • String your beads onto the thread. I used 22 (8mm)  beads for these bracelets.
  • Add your spacer bead at the end.
  • Remove the paperclip and tie the ends of the elastic thread tightly making several knots.
  • Secure the knots with a little super glue or clear nail polish.
  • Hold it while it dries.
  • Cut the excess thread and move the knots under the spacer bead so it's not visible.

Notes

I ended up using 22 beads for each bracelet. If you buy a different size you can lay it out against a measuring tape or ruler, as shown above, to determine the right amount of beads.
