Italian Charms are a great new style craze from Italy. Italian charm bracelets allow you to show off your individuality and interests by linking together Italian charms of your choice to create your own Italian Charm Bracelet.

What is the tool for?

Attaching charms
Attaching a charm is easy. Each link has a spring loaded clasp mechanism inside the charm. Use your thumb to push towards the left on the front right side of the link (which will slide open the clasp). This clasp hooks into the opening on the right side of the second link (use your thumb to push towards the left on the front right side of this second link to better expose the opening). Hook the two links together at a 45-degree angle. The springs inside each link close, locking them together.
