instructions
  1. Bracelet - 1. Use the small template and cut out a flower as for the pendant. File off the saw marks, then mark a point on the flower with a pen and a drill a hole for a jump ring. Place the charm on a a round 40mm wooden door knob, and gently tap with a hide hammer as before.

    2. Use emery papers, and a metal burnisher to create a mirror shine, finishing with jewellery polish and a soft cloth. Thread the charm onto a 10mm jump ring, and secure this onto a large bolt ring. Attach the bolt ring to the ends of a chunky chain with two 7mm jump rings.
