    • Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Thread: Cut a comfortable length of FireLine thread and attach a stop bead to hold your work in place. Start the Ladder Stitch: Pick up a Miyuki Seed Bead, a Potomac Crystal Round, and another Seed Bead, then loop back through the first bead to form a secure connection. Continue Adding Rows: Repeat the pattern, ensuring even tension and alignment as you build the bracelet. Maintain Tension: Keep the beads snug but not overly tight to maintain flexibility. Attach the Clasp: Secure a clasp at the end using multiple passes of thread for reinforcement. Reinforce the Bracelet: Weave back through the bracelet to strengthen the structure before trimming excess thread. Customize Your Design: Experiment with different bead colors, sizes, and clasp styles for a personalized touch.
