Add another bead to number 3 and number 1. Keep adding beads to each bead that is sticking out in row 2. Sew four rows of gold beads.

    3. Create a loop out of seed beads to the end of the bracelet, bring the thread into the project and tie off. On the other side, create a short line of seed beads and add a button or pearl for the loop. Bring the thread back through and tie off at the side. Put a dab of glue on the knots and burn off the ends.
