hi, altho i dont have a picture, i have made a bracelet for a child
that can be adjusted by about 1 -1.5 cm. i will try and describe it
and i hope that it will make sense to you.

1.decide the length of your metal to fit all the way around the
smallest circumference that you would like.
2.Add a few extra centimetres.
3. on one end solder an upside down squareish u shape that. it looks
similar to the piece on a watch strap that the end of the strap tucks
into.
4. begin to round up your bracelet, with the upside-down-u on the
outside,
5. thread one end thru the upside down squarish u shape, then decide
how you would like it to be finished so that the end cant come back
thru....either bend it up, and curl round, or solder on a silver
button, or even another upside down ushape that curls around the
original bracelet.
6. then complete rounding and hardening the bracelet.

i hope that this helps.
tina
