- 1). Pick out up to 10 clam shells that are all about the same size, none of them being more than 3/4 of an inch across at the widest point. The widest point of the shells needs to be slightly smaller than the width of the bangle bracelet.
- 2). Squeeze some epoxy onto the tip of a needle to help you get a more precise application, since epoxy tends to get messy and hard to control straight out of the tube. Apply the glue from the tip of the needle onto the bottom edges of the seashell. Do not apply it too thickly.
- 3). Press the seashell down against the surface of the blank bangle bracelet. A plain wooden bangle bracelet will go well with the natural look of the clam shells. Hold the seashell in place for one minute to help it stay in place as the glue begins to harden.
- 4). Add another shell next to the first one. Make the bracelet uniform by facing each shell in the same direction or alternate back and forth with every other shell. Repeat the process until the whole outside surface of the bangle is covered with seashells. Wait 24 hours for the glue to harden completely before wearing your clam shell bracelet.
