Quick Project Steps

Gather materials: seed beads, beading needle, beading thread, clasp, and scissors.
Start by threading your needle with beading thread and stringing on a stopper bead.
Begin the peyote stitch by picking up an even number of seed beads and passing the needle through them again to form a loop.
Add additional rows of beads using the peyote stitch technique, alternating between adding beads and passing the needle through previous rows.
Continue stitching until the bracelet reaches the desired length, then weave in the thread ends and trim excess.
Attach the clasp to the bracelet ends using jump rings or wire loops, ensuring a secure closure.
Add any final embellishments or decorations to personalize your bracelet.
