Materials Used To make The  Project

Designer's Material List

The Designer’s suggested colors and materials:
  • Miyuki Tila beads (Opaque Cobalt used in the tutorial)
  • Miyuki Delica 11/0 seed beads (mixed blues)
  • Swarovski bicone crystals
  • Wildfire beading thread (0.006)
  • English beading needles (size 10)
  • A stop bead (size 6/0 or 8/0 in a contrasting color)
  • Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Materials: Cut about 3 feet of beading thread and attach a stop bead.
    Start Beading: Add a Tila bead, bringing it down to the stop bead. Sew through the bead in alternating directions to secure it.
    Continue Adding Tila Beads: Follow the diagonal stitch pattern, adding Tila beads to form a zigzag pathway.
    Adding Fringes: After completing the bracelet's length, start adding fringes by sewing a seed bead, a crystal, and another seed bead, looping back to create a fringe effect.
    Finishing: Continue adding fringes along the bracelet, securing the thread and trimming any excess.
