    Quick Project Steps

    Gather waxed linen cord, beads, a cup button, and scissors.
    Measure and cut the waxed linen cord to four times the length of your bead box or desired length.
    Create a loop at one end and attach the cup button at the center.
    Secure the button with a basic knot, ensuring equal lengths of cord on both sides.
    Start adding beads to one side of the cord, alternating sides if desired, and tie knots after each bead to secure.
    Continue adding beads and knots until the bracelet reaches the desired length.
    Finish with an overhand knot and create a loop large enough for the button to fit through, securing the bracelet.
