Step 11: Pimp My Bracelet #3 BLING BLING
Lets face it. Bling bling studs look cool. They are also fairly easy to add.
Punch a hole in the leather. This hole needs to be big enough to let the "cap" portion of the rivet through. Poke the stone stud in, and place face down on a rubber mat. A special mat is sold for this, I recommend getting it. Place the cap on, and tap with tool and mallet. One tap is really all you need, they "pop" together nicely.
They also sell bezel thing that frame the rivet. Just put it between the stone and the leather and pop the cap onto the back.
I told you they where easy. Don't use decorative rivets for load bearing applications, they don't tolerate the strain well.
