    • Quick Project Steps

    Gather Materials: Gem Duos (Mini or Regular). Rondelles (2mm or 3mm). 11/0 seed beads. Size 8 Dragon Thread. Magnetic clasp. Prepare the Thread: Use 5ft of Dragon Thread with a needle on each end. Attach the thread to the magnetic clasp. Start the Pattern: Add two 11/0 seed beads to each needle. Crisscross the needles through a rondelle to secure the start. Add Gem Duos: Thread two gem Duos on both needles, ensuring the beads face the same direction. Add three seed beads, then pass each needle through the second hole of the gem Duos. Repeat the Pattern: Continue adding rondelles, seed beads, and gem Duos to build the bracelet body. Use the crisscross technique for symmetrical alignment. Secure the Clasp: Attach the final rondelle and thread through the other side of the magnetic clasp. Reinforce the clasp by looping through the beads multiple times. Finish the Bracelet: Tie off threads securely with square knots. Trim excess thread and burn the ends for a clean finish. Customize: Add crystals for a centerpiece, or adapt the design into a choker, earrings, or necklace.
