The Diamond Tubelet Bracelet is a great project for beaders of all skill levels. 1. Put a stop bead onto the end of size 6 DragonThread, leaving enough of a tail to add the clasp onto the project. Pick up an 11/0 seed bead, an 8/0 seed bead and a Tubelet bead. Repeat the pattern 3 more times. Bring the needle back up the first 9 beads and pull the beads into a diamond shape. 2. Watch the Diamond Tubelet Bracelet tutorial to follow along with Allie as she guides you step-by-step through the process of beading the DIY bracelet project by making diamond-shaped components connected by RAW stitched seed beads. 3. Coming out of the end of the project, pick up two 11/0 seed beads, a Potomax Infinite Cabochon Clasp and 2 more seed beads. Sew back into the last row of seed beads in the bracelet. Reinforce a couple times. Sew back down into the project and tie off the thread end. Glue in a glass cabochon to the clasp. The Diamond Tubelet Bracelet is an easy design that can be used to create matching earrings or a necklace. Have fun choosing your favorite colors to make your own unique jewelry to show off.

    Just needed Dragon thread. I had some other kind & it keep splitting & fraying. Going to throw it away. I don't know the brand or size. I was using it because it was green & went with the pansy & leaves picture I made for a friend.

    Overall I have a very favorable opinion of Potomac beads.

    I absolutely hate the forced response to add-on items at the end of the ordering process. I accidentally clicked "yes" and it tacked on an $18.99 item I didn't want to my order without a way to back it out. I may not order from this site again as a result!
