Designer Tip: Trim one end of the leather so it fits into the cuff: you will need to slightly round the corners of the leather (you may need to use a nail file to round the corners). Use Supertite Glue to glue the end of the leather into the cuff. Use E6000 Glue to glue all but the last half inch of the leather into the cuff. Measure, cut, and round the corners of the second end of the leather to fit and use the Supertite Glue to glue the last half inch of the leather into the cuff. If the Supertite Glue does not hold, allow it to dry completely and reapply. The rationale for using the E-6000 everywhere but the ends is that is it bonds with some elasticity and will allow the bangle to be opened and closed without cracking. Supertite Glue tends to be a bit more brittle when it is dry, and that is why we don't recommend it for the bendable part of the cuff, but will hold the ends strongly.Use a beading awl or other sharp instrument to punch a hole in the leather right above the hole in the cuff. Add an 8mm jump ring through the leather and the hole in the cuff. Attach the charm to the 8mm jump ring using the 4mm jump ring.
