    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare your materials and thread two needles with approximately five feet of beading thread.
    Start by attaching the cup button with three 11/0 seed beads, a 2-hole bar bead, and the cup button itself, then create the base for the first tulip.
    Construct the tulip using crescent beads for the outer petals and 2-hole bar beads for the inner detail, secured with 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads for added texture and contrast.
    Link each tulip together with crystal rondelle beads, repeating the process to achieve the desired bracelet length.
    Finish the bracelet by creating a loop with seed beads for the clasp mechanism.
    Secure and trim the thread ends with a thread burner, applying a dab of glue for extra security.

    I had a fun & easy shopping experience. I found everything that I want for now!

    It's obnoxious that the site tries to sell customers other things during the checkout process. The purchase button is brighter and more noticeable than the "No thanks" button, which probably tricks many naive customers and makes them not want to shop here again.
