how to make a bracelet that looks like a stack of bracelets

For this bracelet design you need to construct three different beaded chains and attach them together using charm connectors for a stacked bracelet look. This design is really cute and the chain extender means that putting it on by yourself is easier! Please note that this tutorial contains affiliate links.

You’ll need these tools and materials to make your triple strand stack bracelet:

1: Pliers. I used my round nose and flat nose pliers. You might also need your cutting pliers depending on the length of your eye pins.

Here’s where you can buy some jewellery pliers to add to your tool kit:

Follow these steps to make your three-in-one stacked chain bracelet:

1: Take one of the eye pins and add beads.

2: Bend the end of the pin to form an angle with the beaded section.

3: Create a loop at the top of the pin using your round nose pliers to secure the beads in place.

4: Repeat steps 1-3 to create another beaded chain link.

5: Attach the two beaded links together.

6: Repeat steps 1-5 until you have a chain long enough to fit your wrist, make it one link shorter than you think you’ll need, the charm connectors will add extra length to your finished bracelet.

7: Make another two chains in the same way.

8: Attach each of the chains to one of the charm connectors using three of the small jump rings.

9: Attach the other end of the chains to the other charm connector using the remaining three small jump rings.

10: Add A jump ring to one side of the bracelet and attach the lobster clasp.

11: Add another jump ring to the other side and attach the small piece of chain.

12: Add one more bead to the head pin and create a loop at the top as you did in step 3.

13: Attach the charm you just made to the end of the small chain to finish your bracelet off!

So, now your triple chain bracelet stack is finished and ready to wear! What kind of beads will you use in your design? I think that this bracelet would look great with three different types of gemstone beads layered on top of each other. Gemstone chip beads would be perfect for this DIY. You can buy some
