Quick Project Steps

Starting the Base: Begin by creating a box shape using four Tubelet beads, separated by 15/0 seed beads, and tie into a knot.
Creating the Lid: Add a 15/0 seed bead, then alternate between crystal rondelles and Tubelet beads of an alternate color to form the lid of the box.
Securing the Chaton: Place a chaton in the center of the box, using 11/0 seed beads to secure it tightly within the constructed box.
Linking the Boxes: Use the right angle weave technique to link multiple boxes together, creating the bracelet length according to your wrist size.
Adding the Clasp: Finish by attaching the clasp to the ends of the bracelet, ensuring a secure fit.
