Moon and Stars Anklet

Use different celestial charms to make a "Sun-sational" anklet from Katie Hacker!

Materials:

• 5.mm Elasticity™ elastic bead cord
• Assorted amethyst glass spacer beads: rectangular/tube/"E" beads
• Silver celestial charms: 2 moon/stars, 2 moons, 2 suns
• Six jump rings
• G/S Hypo Cement glue
• Desiner Scissors
• Beadstorm™ Chain Nose Pliers

Instructions:

1. Cut a 12" length of Elasticity™. Use a square knot to tie half of the clasp onto one end of the cord. Place a drop of glue on the knot.
    
2. Attach a jump ring to each charm. When opening jump rings, use chain nose pliers to open the ring sideways – do not pull the ends of the jump ring directly away from each other.
    
3. String beads randomly onto the cord for 1 1/2", then string a charm. Repeat this pattern six times total. Use a square knot to tie half of the clasp onto one end of the cord. Place a drop of glue on the knot.

Tip: A half knot is the same knot that you make when tying your shoe. To make a square knot, tie two half knots in opposite directions, ie. right over left and left over right.
