For a while I had been making my stitch markers using the round piece of a toggle clasp. Which meant that the bars from the clasps were just sitting there, staring at me. I couldn't bear to throw them away, knowing that sooner or later I would find a use for them, and I did.
Check out this bracelet:
And here it is laid out:
Isn't that fun? I call it the Toggle On Bracelet.
It's up in my shop now, but it's super easy to make. I took a 7 inch piece of chain, grabbed some jump rings and just started attaching the toggles all around the chain. Then added the lobster claw clasp pieces to both ends of the chain. Very simple.
You should hear the pretty jingle it makes! When I came up with the idea, I didn't think I would like it. I made it anyway and I'm so glad I did. It's actually kind of neat and would look really cool with a black turtleneck sweater.
