Decide on the width of your cuff. We used 4 inches wide. Measure the length of your wrist and add an inch or so for your snap closures. Mark out your rectangle with disappearing ink marker. Cut out your rectangle with sharp scissors.

Punch two holes with your leather punch for the snap closures, about 1 cm from the edge on each side of your bracelet.

Follow the instructions on the snap kit to install the front and back of 2 snap closures.

Optional: Use tape to mark out a pattern for the gold leaf, and apply the gold leaf adhesive. Let set for 10 minutes, according to the package instructions, and then apply gold leaf on top, and buff off with a soft cloth.

Optional: Lastly add a small hole for a tassel, and attach to the bracelet with a jewelry jump ring
