    Learn how to use 2 needles to create a bracelet full of shimmer and shine in this PotomacBeads tutorial. The Hour Glass Bracelet features EVA and RounDuo mini beads with some Potomac crystal rondelles added for some extra sparkle.
    1. Put 2 size 12 needles onto about 6 feet of .006 Wildfire beading thread. Add a 15/0, 11/0 and 15/0. Bring both needles down through a table cut button. Pick up a 15/0 and two 11/0s to each needle. Criss-cross through a Potomac crystal rondelle. Make sure that there are equal lengths of thread on each needle.
    2. Watch the Hour Glass Bracelet tutorial to follow along with Allie’s step-by-step directions to create the pattern used in the beaded bracelet.
    3. Reinforce the seed bead loop when you reach the end of the project. Add in seed beads and Potomac crystal rondelles along the sides of the bracelet. Bring the 2 threads together when you get to the end of the design by the table cut button. Tie off and burn any loose edges.
    The Hour Glass Bracelet is a great resource to gain suggestions and ways for you to make your own product and add your own diversity to the project to make it uniquely yours.
