    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare a threaded needle with 0.006 Wildfire beading thread.
    String approximately 80 Preciosa twin beads onto the thread, creating an alternating up-and-down pattern.
    Begin by filling in the gaps in the bottom row with twin beads, ensuring to alternate every other bead from top to bottom.
    After completing the bottom row, proceed to fill in the top row gaps with additional twin beads.
    Add another row to widen the bracelet, continuing to fill in empty gaps with twin beads.
    Finalize the bracelet by adding size 8/0 seed beads between the twin beads in the last row for a polished finish.
