    • Quick Project Steps

    Gather Materials: 2mm and 4mm bicones. 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads. Dragon Thread (size 8). Clasp or earring findings (optional). Create the First Loop: Thread six 2mm bicones, each separated by a 15/0 seed bead. Tie into a secure loop using a double knot or stop bead. Add Seed Bead Layer: Add a decorative border by threading a combination of 15/0 and 11/0 seed beads around the loop. Reinforce the loop by threading through all the beads again. Build the Second Loop: Start from the exterior of the first loop. Thread six 4mm bicones and alternate with seed beads (15/0 and 11/0). Connect the Loops: Use seed beads and bicones to link the loops together. Ensure the connection is secure by threading through the existing loops multiple times. Repeat for Bracelet Length: Continue creating and connecting loops until the bracelet reaches your desired length. Attach the Clasp: Use seed beads to attach the clasp securely to both ends of the bracelet. Reinforce the connection by threading through the clasp and beads several times. Finalize the Design: Tighten all threads and trim any excess. Adjust the beads for symmetry and polish the final look.
