    Quick Project Steps

    If you're looking for a fun and pretty spring bracelet to make, this PotomacBeads tutorial is for you! You'll learn how to work with two needles to create the butterfly designs, and the end result is so worth it. 1. Put five feet of beading thread on two size 12 needles. Pick up 36 seed beads, let them drop to the center of the thread. Pick up on more seed bead and thread both needles through it in the same direction and bring it down to the other beads. This will form a loop. 2. Watch the Amity Bracelet tutorial with Allie to stitch the design with the Pucas, QuadBows and Chatons. 3. Tie the thread off behind the button with a square knot. Thread the two ends away from each other towards the interior of the project. Burn the thread down flush. The Amity Bracelet is a great project for beaders of all skill levels. If you're a beginner, you'll get to practice your skills. And, if you're an experienced beader, you'll love how quickly this bracelet comes together. You'll love wearing this cute little bracelet out and are sure to get compliments wherever you go.
