Project 2: How to make 100 Kabbalah Bracelets

Project 2: How to make 100 Kabbalah Bracelets

















The kit includes :
1) 20 meters red silk cord
2) 200 rings
3) 200 caps
4) 100 crab locks
5) 100 Star of Davids

Instructions:

Measure and cut off 17cm of red cord1) Measure and cut off 17cm of red cord. This should fit a man's arm. For women I recommend 15-16 cm.












Put one end of the cord into the cap2) Put one end of the cord into the cap, in between the two flaps.












Use long-nose pliers to squeeze one of the flaps into a 45 degree angle3) Use long-nose pliers to squeeze one of the flaps into a 45 degree angle. Repeat for the second flap. You will end up having the flaps form a triangle.











Now close it shut by giving it a good squeeze in the middle with the pliers4) Now close it shut by giving it a good squeeze in the middle with the pliers.












This is what it should look like after squeezed5) This is what it should look like after squeezed. It's nice and strong. There is no way the cord can escape from this cap now, even if you give it a good pull. This part has to be done well. If not strong it can result in the bracelet ripping apart while worn. And We don't want that to happen... Repeat for the other end of the cord.








Put a ring through the little hole in the cap and into the ring also put a crab lock6) Put a ring through the little hole in the cap and into the ring also put a crab lock. Close the ring shut using the pliers.











Repeat step 6 for the other end of the cord7) Repeat step 6 for the other end of the cord, but this time put a Star of David instead of a crab.
Once you have done this, the bracelet is ready. To close it, the crab will lock on this ring below the Star of David.
Now that you are an expert in this you can repeat it 100 times. Good Luck !
