    Quick Project Steps

    Add some sparkle and shine to your outfit with the Graceful Bracelet. Learn how to use a right angle weave to create this dazzling crystal bracelet in this PotomacBeads tutorial. 1.Put a stop bead onto some DragonThread. Using a size 12 needle, pick up 8 seed beads. Go back through the first 6 beads to form a loop. Add 4 more seed beads and sew into the top of the last 2 beads. This forms the second right angle weave unit. 2.Watch the Graceful Bracelet tutorial to follow along with Allie as she guides you step-by-step through the process of designing this beaded bracelet and decorating it with Potomac crystals. 3.Once the embellishments are complete, it’s time to add the clasp. Add a crystal and sew through the first loop of the clasp and back through the crystal. Bring the needle through the seed beads and add another crystal to the next loop in the clasp. Continue with all the loops. Tie the thread and burn down the loose ends. The Potomax infinite clasp adds a real pop of glitz to the Graceful Bracelet. You’ll love the way this bracelet drapes around your wrist. Try making it in different color schemes to switch up the look from glamorous to vintage. Technique learned:
