Cufflinks

[Kermit]

I was doing it with the insert image button - thanks for enlightening me!!

I love the pearl cufflinks - hadn't thought of using a bar.....

The round stones are Picasso Jasper - but are a matt finish, not polished and I thought they'd be perfect for men!

My husband thought I was mad when at 7am on sunday morning I was going through his wardrobe to find a shirt to check the size of the beads that would go through the holes to use as the back bead on the cufflinks ! I was at a fair all day on sunday and try to be productive with my time rather than just sitting and nattering with whoever is on the stall next to me!!

Now I just need to hope they sell.... next fair on Thursday evening, then a two day one at the weekend !

They look great - good luck with the fairs.

Lesley, they're double looped wrapped headpins through the beads, so they aren't going anywhere! Linked with 1.3mm wire jumprings, which are hard enough to open with pliers let alone any other way

Gayle, I generally use 8 or 10mm pearls for these - if I put a pearl either end (which I do for ladies cufflinks) I use a 10mm and a 6mm.

What I mean is, if the bead goes through the cuff holes why doesn't it just fall out?
With the bar ones they turn sideways and so don't slip out.

Speak slowly Di, I'm Irish ha ha ha,,, no seriously thank you so much, i've got it now thanks to you my darling thank you so so much

My pleasure Gayle

Lesley, one end is a bead big enough to stay on the front, the other is either a bar, or a slightly smaller bead that will just push through the buttonhole (like a button) but not pop straight out again
