Dream Big Galaxy Bracelet

Inspired by Oh The Lovely Things' galaxy necklace, I sought to make my own similar creation, which was super easy and quick to make. So off I went to Hobby Lobby for the supplies.

Here are the materials I used to make my galaxy bracelet:

• bracelet cord • "dream big" charm • mini star charms • jump rings • a sponge • jewelry pliers • different colored nail polish •

note: you only really need a few colors, but I had so many  appropriate colors at home that I added a good majority of the ones pictured here

I started with a dark base coat, which I applied with the brush and let sit to dry. Then I just went a little crazy sponging on the colors (I literally have no control!!), continuously adding a dab of pink here and a dab of green there, oh wait! a tad bit more of pink and so on and so forth. Once it had dried and I was happy with how the colors looked blended together, I put some clear polish with glitter as my top coat, giving it that starry feel I was going for.

here's what the charm ended up looking like - I used different light settings so you could see the depth of all the colors (and the glitter!)

The assembly was also very simple: First, I opened up two jump rings with the pliers, fitting the ends of the charm into the rings. Next, I added one star charm to the jump ring so that it would slightly overlap the main charm. Lastly, I closed the jump rings around the clasps in the cord to put the whole piece together.

This was so simple to make, but it looks great and provides a nice message - DREAM BIG - to those like me who like to gaze at the sky, always dreaming, always wondering.

Once again, a special thanks to Oh the Lovely Things for the inspiration - originally on a beautiful triangle necklace.
