Blush Rose Cup Chain Bracelet

Swarovski Blush Rose Fancy Stone Cup Chain Bracelet

By Tamara Honaman

Add Swarovski fancy stones to cup chain for a quick and easy finished jewelry design you make yourself!

Materials

• Empty cup chain bracelet for 12mm 4470 rhinestones
• 10 Swarovski 12 mm square cushion cut rhinestone crystals (4470) in blush rose
• Pliers (or other smooth metal tool)

Instructions

1. Place one 12mm Swarovski cushion cut crystal rhinestone (4470) in blush rose into a cup chain setting.
   
2. Using the side of the tips of your pliers (or the smooth side of a similar tool), press one prong into the cup chain setting down toward the Swarovski crystal.
   
   
3. Repeat step 2 on the opposite side of the Swarovski crystal.
   
   Tip: When setting a stone, set the prongs on opposite ends first and second. Do not set 2 prongs right next to each other. This keeps the prong centered and straight. If you were to visualize the cup chain as a clock, start at 12:00, then set the prong at 6:00, then 3:00, then 9:00.
4. Repeat Step 2 to press another prong toward the stone. Then press the remaining prong into place.
   
5. Repeat all steps to fill in each empty cup chain setting. Go back over each prong to make sure they are in place and secure and that there are no gaps that might catch your clothing.
