How to Draw a Bracelet (Easy Step by Step)
A bracelet is a fun drawing because it is mostly one shape, the circle, repeated around a ring. Add a heart charm at the bottom and it looks like a real piece of jewelry. If you can draw circles and one heart, you can draw this.

Step 1: The heart charm
Near the bottom of your page, draw a heart: two round bumps on top that meet in a dip, then two sloping sides going down to a point. Add a tiny ring sitting in the dip at the top, like a loop for hanging.
Step 2: First two beads
Draw a circle just above the left top corner of the heart, touching the heart. Draw a matching circle above the right top corner in the same way.
Step 3: Next beads up
Draw a circle up and outward from each bead you just made, touching it. Try to make each new circle about the same size as the one before.
Step 4: Beads curve upward
Add one more circle on each side, touching the last bead and a little higher up. The beads should start to curve up and around like a ring.
Step 5: Beads on the sides
Draw another circle above each side bead, touching it. The two sides should be nearly straight across from each other.
Step 6: Beads curve inward
Add one more circle on each side, touching the bead below it. The ring now curves inward as it heads toward the top.
Step 7: Top beads
Finish the ring with two circles at the very top, side by side. They should touch each other in the middle and touch the bead on each side, closing the loop.
All done!
Go over your lines with a marker, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a bracelet
- Draw all the circles about the same size. If you make the first few too big, you will run out of room, so keep them small and neat.
- Let each bead touch the one next to it. That makes it look like they are strung together.
- For the heart, draw the two bumps first and then join them to the point at the bottom. Draw the tiny loop on top last.

Questions about drawing a bracelet
What shapes do I need to draw a bracelet?
You need circles for the beads and one heart for the charm. A tiny ring for the loop that holds the heart is the only other shape.
How do I make the beads look even?
Work up both sides at the same time, adding one circle on the left and then one on the right. That helps both sides match and keeps the ring round.
How do I make my bracelet look cuter?
Add little patterns, dots or stars inside the beads once the drawing is finished. You can also color the heart a bright shade so it stands out.
