How to Make a Prayer Box Charm Beaded Bracelet

Prayer Box charms are a unique way to remind yourself of your secret prayer or wish. The charm opens so you can insert a bit of paper with your prayer wish reminder written on it.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• elastic cord
• assorted beads
• prayer box charm

1. Cut a piece of elastic cord that is the size of your wrist plus 4-5 inches.
   The beads for this project should be at least 6mm, and have a rather large hole in the center. Insert 2 pieces of the cord you are using to make sure it will fit before you begin.

2. String the beads onto the elastic cord. Add one additional bead at the end and thread both ends of the cord through it.
   Tie the cord in a double knot. Reinforce the knot with a couple drops of glue. Trim the excess cord so it looks neat.

3. Most prayer box charms come with a lobster claw clasp. So all you have to do is clip the charm on the bracelet.
   If there is no clasp , use a jump ring to attach the charm to your bracelet.

Tips & Warnings

• You can use many types of beads, plastic, ceramic, clay or even some metal ones.
