In this video tutorial from PotomacBeads, Allie teaches you how to make the “Drawbridge” bracelet by using RounDuo® Mini Beads and Octo Beads. Find a list of materials in the description below.
Preparing the Thread and Needle: Start with two needles on a six-foot piece of .006 Wildfire beading thread. Creating the Central Row: Begin by threading an Octo Bead with 15/0 seed beads between each, using both needles to pass through the beads. Adding Side Decorations: Incorporate Gekko Beads on the sides of the bracelet, flanked by 15/0 seed beads, to create a decorative edge. Placing RounDuo® Mini Beads: Add RounDuo® Mini Beads atop the Octo Beads, using a pattern of four 15/0 seed beads to position each mini bead. Attaching the Clasp: Finish by attaching a Claspgarten clasp, reinforcing the attachment points with additional seed beads for strength and aesthetics. Final Adjustments: Ensure the bracelet is snug and secure by tightening and knotting the thread, then trimming any excess.
