    Add Beads and Knot: Thread three hex nut beads onto one strand, then secure with simple knots, alternating sides and repeating the pattern.
    Continue Pattern: Maintain the bead and knot sequence, ensuring consistent spacing and tension.
    Finishing the Bracelet: After reaching the desired length, add the button by threading both ends of the cord through the button holes and tying a secure knot.
    Final Adjustments: Trim any excess cord or leave a small tail for a rustic look. Optionally, add a few loose beads to the tails for decoration.
