    • Quick Project Steps

    Get ready to set sail with this beautiful Ancient Portal bracelet. This PotomacBeads tutorial will show you how to use a right angle weave with multi-hole beads to create this bracelet that compliments the Ancient Portal earrings. Put a stop bead onto the thread. Thread through a middle hole of a QuadBow from the outside towards the inside. Pick up a 15/0, a DiscDuo, a second 15/0 and then another QuadBow from the inside to the outside. Add an 11/0 and then repeat the pattern with the QuadBows. Continue the pattern for the length of the bracelet. About 8 sections, Follow along with Dena in the tutorial to see how she does her Ancient Portal bracelet bead weaving. When you have completed the pattern, bring the thread end to the stop bead. Tie the two ends in a knot. Bring the thread back down a few beads to bring the knot down into the beads. Burn down the ends. Add the clasp. This attractive Ancient Portal bracelet is the perfect accessory. Choose from a sea blue color scheme or a more neutral black and gold to match your style. Made with right angle weave, it's a great way to show off your skills. And, it looks even better when paired with the matching earrings. So, whether you're looking for a special gift or just want to treat yourself, this bracelet is a great choice.
