    Quick Project Steps

    In this PotomacBeads tutorial you will learn how to use a Herringbone stitch to create this festive Christmas Flower bracelet. Whether you choose to make it in a poinsettia red or a cool white and silver, this bracelet is a splendid seasonal accessory.
    1. Put a stop bead on .006 Dragon thread. Leave a tail to add a closure at the end. Pick up four 8/0s, bring the needle back up through the first two beads. Sew down the last two beads. Pick up two more 8/0s and sew through the last two beads. Continue until you have 6 columns.
    2. Watch the Christmas Flower bracelet tutorial to follow along with Allie’s step-by-step directions to create the Herringbone stitch to design the project.
    3. Connect the clasp and make sure to reinforce by threading through another couple times. Tie off and cut the thread at the back of the project. Attach the other side of the clasp, making sure both are facing up. Glue in the Czech glass cabochon. Burn off any loose thread ends.
    This Christmas Flower bracelet sits comfortably on the wrist but could be made as a single strand if you’d like a thinner look. The holiday design makes this the perfect gift for family and friends that they’re sure to appreciate.
