    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare the Closure: Start with a cut button, adding one 11/0 seed bead, one Potomac Crystal Rondelle, and another 11/0 seed bead. Thread through the button to create the starting point.
    Base Pattern Creation: Use RounDuos, alternating with 15/0 seed beads, to create the bracelet's base. Ensure each RounDuo is flanked by 15/0 seed beads for a neat finish.
    Adding Peony Designs: Integrate O Beads and additional seed beads to weave peony flower designs along the bracelet. This involves a detailed process of adding and crossing beads to form the floral pattern.
    Closure Loop: After completing the bracelet length, create a loop with 11/0 seed beads to fit the cut button, reinforcing it for durability.
    Finishing Touches: Go back through the design to tighten and secure all beads, ensuring the peony designs are prominently displayed and the bracelet is ready to wear.
