    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare your materials and thread your needle with a length of Dragon thread, securing a stop bead. Start with a row of nine seed beads, considering them as three groups of three, and add a 15/0 seed bead for decoration. Create a framed look by adding rows of colored beads, using the square stitch technique to form the keyhole design. Continue adding rows, alternating colors as desired, to achieve the bracelet's length. To create the toggle clasp, construct a toggle bar out of seed beads that fits through the last keyhole of the bracelet. Finish the bracelet by reinforcing the toggle bar, tying off the thread, and burning off the ends.
