Instructions
Things You’ll Need:

* 7 to 8 inches of wide-link jewelry chain
* Magnetic or lobster-claw fastener
* Small jump rings
* Head pins
* Needle-nose pliers
* Assortment of beads and charms

Step1
Use good-quality chain, either sterling silver or heavy gold electroplated, with links at least 1/4-inch wide. Attach the fastener components to either end, using small jump rings. Use pliers to close jump rings securely.
Step2
Collect your charms. Online auctions are a great source if you’re looking for something specific. Charms with moving parts,such as globes and windmills that turn, are more expensive, but also more entertaining. Select charms that have meaning to your life, representing your background, hobbies and interests. To commemorate children, have blank charms engraved with their names and birth dates.
Step3
Using jump rings, attach your five favorite charms equal distances apart. Determine where to place charms by counting the links and dividing by the number of charms. Notice that the links sometimes alternate in orientation (one link straight up, the next at a right angle to the first, the next straight up, etc.) If you’re using only a few charms, be sure to attach charms to correct links so they all hang in the same direction. (In a fully loaded bracelet, charms can point every which-way.)
Step4
Make “filler” charms using headpins and beads. This is a great use for beautiful single beads or single earrings. Finish top of each filler charm by using needle-nose pliers to create a loop. Using jump rings, attach filler charms in between other charms. Include one charm that can dangle from the clasp.
Step5
Try on the charm bracelet and check for empty spaces; move the charms and fill in with colorful filler charms, as necessary. Mixing gold and silver and all different colors is perfectly acceptable. Use as many or as few charms as you like; a sparsely decorated bracelet looks more elegant and is lighter, but a “loaded” bracelet is more fun.

French cuff shirts are unique in themselves with adding cuff links one will add style to themselves.

Cuff links come in many different styles, shapes, colors, and quality. Silver cuff links are perhaps the most sought out color in cuff links to purchase. Gold and platinum are other colors one would choose to wear with a shirt.

Gold and platinum is more expensive to purchase than silver cuff links. With gold and platinum the metals are harder which will make cuff links last longer. Silver cuff links are made of an alloy with a plating of sliver over metal to give the shine and sparkle of sliver to the cuff link. Sliver cuff links are made to last with toughen sliver coating that is placed on the cuff link.

Most cuff links are design the same way with having a clasp on the end to hold a cuff link on the shirt while the top will be of different styles, colors and designs. Still some of the cuff links are made as years ago with the button and chain. Most men will wear a conservative set of cuff links. Where others will step out and wear a pair of unique cuff link.

Cuff links years ago were design with string and ribbon to hold the cuff of the shirt together. The turn of cufflinks then went to a simple chain with a button on each side to hold the cuff closed. As the fashion change and manufacturing increase, metal cuff link with clasp was easier to handle and close.

When purchasing a pair of cufflinks make sure they are of good quality. Some companies will use softer metals and inexpensive clasp to only bring the price down. With this, the use of cuff links will be short.
