Have you ever looked at one of your belongings and thought; Man, why do I even keep this? Well, I thought so about this hairclip. Then I thought; Hey, this is perfectly long enough for making a bracelet!

What you'll need to make this charmed bracelet is a chain (does not necessarily come from a hairclip :) ), a kelp, (maybe) some jump rings, a charm (or whatever you'll like to put on it) and a lock of any kind (this time I simply used a safety pin).

First of all, I removed those feathers and the bobby pin on top of the hairclip. I decided to keep, them, they might come in handy later :). Removing them also gave me five jump rings, so I didn't need any jump rings else than those i already had from the clip.
I kept the jump ring form the feather in the middle, and I put on a charm. I closed the jump ring, and put on one jump ring in one end of the chain. Then I took a small safety pin (the bracelet was just a little too short, but the safety pin made it perfectly long enough for me) and put on a jump ring at the round end of it. Then I closed the jump ring around the other end of the chain.

That's all!

In the left bracelet at the top picture, I've used two different chains. Those were leftovers form earlier projects :)
