    Quick Project Steps

    This PotomacBeads tutorial shows you how straightforward it is to create this flexible, wide fit bracelet. The neutral colors make it an easy choice for any outfit. 1. Put a stop bead onto size 6 Dragon thread, leaving about 10 inches for a tail. Using a size 11 needle, pick up a Czech round, an 8/0, a brass form, an 8/0 and another Czech round. Add another 8/0, round and 11/0. Take the needle back through the second round to pull the last round on top of it. Go through the seed bead on the end and the round and add the second row. 2. Follow along with Allie in the Jacob bracelet tutorial to see how to make the design of the body of the bracelet. 3. Add seed beads and the Potomax infinite cabochon clasp to the end of the band. Circle around the beads and clasp once more to reinforce. Repeat on the other side of the bracelet. Tie off the thread and burn the end with the thread burner.
