Learn how to make a twirling disco bracelet using disco ball beads, 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads, and Dragon Thread. This fun and dynamic design features a swirling pattern that adds movement and style. Use 6mm disco ball beads, Miyuki 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads, Dragon Thread (size 8), and a clasp from Clasp Garden for a polished finish. Master bead stringing, create loops, and use wire guards for durability and a professional look. Customize your bracelet by experimenting with different bead colors, clasp types, or adding gemstones for a unique style.
Gather Materials:
6mm disco ball beads. 11/0, 8/0, and 15/0 seed beads. Dragon Thread (size 8). Wire guard and a clasp.
Set Up the Thread:
Cut approximately 5 feet of Dragon Thread. Attach a stop bead at one end, leaving a 6-inch tail.
String the Base Pattern:
Follow the pattern: 11/0 seed bead, 8/0 seed bead, 11/0 seed bead, and a 6mm disco ball bead. Repeat until you achieve the desired bracelet length.
Attach the Clasp:
Use a wire guard to secure the clasp. Thread through the clasp loop, wire guard, and back through the beads multiple times to reinforce.
Create the First Loop:
String three 15/0 beads, one 11/0 bead, one 8/0 bead, another 11/0 bead, and three more 15/0 beads. Secure the loop by threading into the next 8/0 bead in the base pattern.
Continue Adding Loops:
Repeat the loop pattern along the length of the bracelet, threading through each 8/0 bead to secure.
Align the Loops:
Adjust thread tension to align the loops evenly on both sides of the bracelet.
Finish and Secure:
Reinforce the clasp connection by threading through the wire guard again. Tie off the thread securely and trim excess with a thread burner.
Customize Your Design:
Experiment with bead colors or add embellishments for a personalized style.
