    Get ready for a day out at the beach. You’ll love the shimmering look of the Magical Mermaid bracelet. Watch this PotomacBeads tutorial to learn some knotting techniques to create this enchanting accessory.
    1. Put a clasp on to a 2 foot piece of Potomax 49 strand beading cable and use a crimp tube to fasten it to the middle. String the two strands of beads, one matte and one shiny, making sure there is a one bead difference between the two. Put the crimp tube onto one of the strands and string through the clasp and back down through the crimp tube and the first bead. Take the second strand and thread through the crimp tube and clasp and back down through the crimp tube and first bead. Pull the wires tight and use pliers to flatten the crimp and trim the wire ends.
    2. Watch the Magical Mermaid Bracelet tutorial to see how to add on the chinese knotting cord.
    3. Glue the Potomac crystal rivoli into the clasp. Trim the cord and use your thread burner to burn the end.
    Have fun making this Magical Mermaid bracelet. It’s a quick project and would make a great gift that’s sure to be worn and enjoyed.
