Let's get a little patriotic in making the Uncle Sam Bracelet using the Dutch spiral technique. But you don't have to use red, white, and blue in this easy-to-make bangle. This design uses only seed beads, so grab some in any color and make it your own!
Technique Learned: Peyote Stitch
Prepare Your Materials: Gather all the required seed beads and a gold-plated star bead if desired.
Start the Dutch Spiral: Begin with an initial sequence of beads, establishing the base of the bracelet.
Work the Spiral: Progress through the bracelet by adding and decreasing beads according to the Dutch spiral technique.
Maintain Symmetry: Pay attention to the symmetry and spiral formation as you add new rows of beads.
Finishing the Bracelet: Choose to either create a bangle by joining the ends or add clasps for a bracelet or necklace.
Final Touches: Add the optional gold-plated star bead for embellishment if desired.
