Beaded Seed Bead Bracelet- Tools for the project

Step 1:

Cut a piece of 13–14″ nylon string, thread the needle on and slide it to the center.

Step 4:

Measure your wrist and start threading on the seed beads; stop once you reached your desired length.

Step 5:

When the bracelet is long enough, add the second double-cup bead tip and make a double knot again.

Step 6:

Finish the bracelet by closing the double-cup bead tips and adding all findings and charms. I recommend to use 2–3 strings per clasp — otherwise, the bracelet will look too chunky at the ends. Or if you don’t want to add an extender chain, you can have all bracelets close with their own clasp.
