Quick Project Steps

Prepare Your Materials: Gather all beads and materials listed. Thread about six feet of thread through two needles.
Begin with the Button: Start by adding a Cup Button using three 11/0 seed beads.
Add Beads in Sequence: Follow the pattern by adding 11/0, RounDuo® Mini, and Rhombus beads, ensuring to pass each needle through one hole of each bead without crossing.
Adjust Length: Continue adding beads until you achieve the desired bracelet length. For a 7-inch bracelet, use approximately nine Rhombus beads.
Closing the Bracelet: End the beadwork with a Round Duo bead, creating a loop for the button closure and reinforcing the thread path for durability.
Finishing Touches: Weave back through the beadwork to secure and trim excess thread.
