If you're working on a friendship bracelet or a project with the Gionlion Clay Bead Bracelet Making Kit, understanding how to properly use a binder and lobster clasp is essential for finishing your piece with a professional touch. This guide will walk you through the steps to secure your bracelet with these components, ensuring your creation is both durable and stylish.

Step 1: Thread the Cord Through the Binder
Start by threading the cord through the hole in the center of the binder. Make sure the open end of the binder is facing outward, as this will allow for a secure closure later on.

Step 2: Tie Two Knots
Next, tie two secure knots to hold the cord in place. Once you've tied the knots, trim off any excess thread to keep your bracelet neat. Then, close the opening of the binder to secure the knots inside.

Step 3: Connect the Binder and Lobster Clasp
Now, connect the binder to the lobster clasp using the round ring. This step is crucial as it links the clasp to the rest of your bracelet, allowing it to fasten properly.

Step 4: Move on to the Other Half
With one side of your bracelet completed, it's time to move on to the other half. Repeat the process to ensure both sides of your bracelet are equally secure.

Step 5: Repeat the Threading Process
Thread the cord through the hole in the center of the second binder, again ensuring the open end of the binder is facing outward.

Step 6: Tie Knots and Trim Excess
As before, tie two knots to secure the cord, trim any excess thread, and close the binder’s opening to lock the knots inside.

Step 7: Connect the Binder and Extension Chain
Now, connect the binder to the extension chain using the round ring. This step adds versatility to your bracelet, allowing it to adjust to different wrist sizes.

Step 8: Attach the Lobster Clasp
Finally, clip the lobster clasp into the appropriate position on the extension chain. This final step ensures that your bracelet is fully adjustable and ready to wear.

By following these simple steps, you can expertly finish any friendship bracelet or jewelry piece using the Gionlion Clay Bead Bracelet Making Kit or any other kit. The combination of a binder and lobster clasp not only adds a professional finish to your work but also ensures that your bracelet is both secure and easy to wear.
