Quick Project Steps

Gather all materials and organize them by color and size.
Start with a micro spacer, adding two millimeter rounds with an 11/0 seed bead between each round to form the first flower.
Secure the rounds by passing through the opposite side of the micro spacer.
Embellish the flower with 15/0 seed beads, creating a detailed petal effect.
Connect the first flower to the second using an 11/0 seed bead and another micro spacer, repeating the flower-making process with different colored rounds for each family member's birthstone.
Continue adding flowers until the bracelet reaches the desired length.
Finish with a loop of seed beads for the clasp and attach a decorative button.
Glue chatons into the center of each micro spacer for a polished look.
