Materials Used To make The  Project

Designer's Material List

The Designer’s suggested colors and materials for:
  • Potomac Crystal Rondelle 3x4mm - Crystal
  • Pip Beads - Alabaster Roman Rose
  • Pip Beads - Pastel Light Green
  • Czech Pearls 8mm - Bold Copper Shiny
  • Miyuki Seed Beads 11/0 - Galvanized Light Raspberry
  • Miyuki Seed Beads 15/0 - Galvanized Gold
  • Cup Buttons - Aztec Gold
  • Step-By-Step Instructions

    Start with cutting about five feet of beading thread, threading a needle on each end.
    Begin the base layer by adding three pip beads separated by 11/0 seed beads on each side, centered around an 8mm bead.
    For the top layer, reduce the number of pip beads to two on each side, creating a more pronounced flower effect.
    After completing the floral design, reinforce the bracelet's closure with a Cup Button and additional seed beads.
    Finish the bracelet by adding a row of 15/0 seed beads behind the Potomac crystals for aesthetic and structural support.
