    Quick Project Steps

    Preparation: Gather Iris Duos, Storm Duos, Super Duos, and seed beads. Use size eight white dragon thread with a size 11 needle. Starting the Design: Thread three SuperDuos with 11/0 seed beads in between. Add three 15/0 seed beads between the second holes of the SuperDuos. Adding Detail: Create a Pico trim on top as connector points, using 15/0 seed beads. Building the Pattern: Add StormDuo and IrisDuo beads, ensuring the correct orientation and integration with seed beads for a symmetrical pattern. Weaving Techniques: Follow detailed instructions for bead placement, including adding 15/0 and 11/0 seed beads in specific sequences for intricate detailing. Creating Components: Repeat the process to complete each component of the bracelet, ensuring tight threading for a neat finish. Final Touches: Once the desired length is achieved, attach the clasp securely, ensuring the correct orientation for wearing. Completing the Bracelet: Trim and burn down any excess thread, ensuring a clean finish.
