Make Charms:

1. Flatten out a piece of modeling compound to approx. 1/8 inch thickness.
2. Using the Charm Patterns, cut out all seven shapes with a knife.

3. Gently smooth and round all rough edges. (Be very gentle to keep the charm at 1/8 inch, and to keep the charm's finished size the same as the pattern guide.)
4. Using a needle, make a small hole in the top of each charm. (About 1 cm from the edge.)
5. Bake the charms on a cookie sheet at 275 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Cool.
6. Paint the charms using desired colors.
7. Finish the charms with varnish.

Assemble the Bracelet:

1. Using the pliers, open a jump ring.
2. Insert the ring through the hole in the charm.
3. Before closing the ring back up, slip an e connector onto the jump ring.

4. Now, close the jump ring ends with your pliers.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each of the charms.
6. Cut a piece of black cord the desired length for your bracelet. (No shorter than 7 inches.)
7. Slip the charms onto the black cord through the other side of the e connector in the following order: Star, Bread, Fish, Heart, Cross, Stone, Butterfly.
8. Finish the ends of the bracelet with the silver findings as shown.

9. Position the end Charms (Star and Butterfly) 1/2 inch from the findings.
10. Using the pliers, squeeze the e connector loop into the black cord at the 1/2 inch position.
11. Space out each of the other charms evenly across the black cord. (for a 7 inch cord that is about 3/4 inch space between charms.)
12. Use the pliers as you did for the Star and Butterfly to set the charms into their positions on the black cord.
