How to cut charm bracelet chain?
I just bought 80 inches of charm bracelet chain from a craft store and I want to make bracelets but I don't know how to cut the chain down to size. Can anyone give me detailed instructions? I have my wire cutters and 2 kinds of pliers so I'm all set. I just need good instructions about how to cut the chain please 
Cut one link of the chain in the middle of the long side with a diagonal wire cutter.
Twist the link slightly to remove it from the chain. You may need to use two needle-nosed pliers to hold and twist them.
If you're using chain clasps to connect the new ends, hook them onto each side of the chain, and twist the open ends of the links with a needle nosed pliers to secure the clasps.
If you feel you need practice, just use the links on the ends of the chains, one link at a time. This way you won't end up with a short piece of chin that you can't make into a bracelet.
