    Prepare Your Materials: Gather all the beads, thread, needles, and tools as listed in the materials section.
    Thread Your Needles: Cut a 5-foot length of beading thread. Thread a needle on each end and flatten the ends with pliers.
    Start the Bracelet: Attach the cut button by threading three seed beads onto one needle, passing both needles through the button holes, and securing with additional seed beads.
    Add RounDuo Beads: Begin the main pattern by adding RounDuo beads, alternating with the 3mm beads and rondelles as described in the video.
    Secure and Finish: Once the bracelet reaches the desired length, secure the ends, add any finishing touches like reinforcing the threading, and apply glue to knots if needed.
