Designer Tips
- Just unhook one side (no tools necessary) and slide the charms on in desired order.
- Use birthstones, or simply use favorite colors of sparkling crystals. We used April (clear, diamond), March (aquamarine) and December (tanzanite) birthstones, and a lotus charm. (Click into any charm's details, for links to other colors.)
- Make sure the charms are all facing forward, then rehook the bracelet.
- Optional: use chain-nose pliers (smooth flat-nose pliers) to flatten the hooks into closed loops. If you flatten the hooks, then you can't easily switch out the charms, but it helps keep the hooks from snagging on sweaters.
