Quick Project Steps

This PotomacBeads tutorial shows you how to make a stunning Bizou Bracelet. This vintage style chain bracelet is full of glitz and glam, and is perfect for dressing up any outfit. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, we hope you'll find this tutorial helpful. So let's get started!
1. Begin with 2 size 12 needles on 8 feet of thread. Bring the needles up through the cup button with the cup down. Put on three 15/0s on each needle. Add four Delicas to the right hand needle. Cross through the Delicas with the left needle. Pull them down to the button. Make sure both sides of the thread are equal. Pick up another four Delicas in the same way. Cross through a tile bead in the bottom hole. Pick up a 15/0, an 11/0 and another 15/0 and bring the needle through the top hole of the tile. Repeat with the other needle.
2. Watch the BIzou Bracelet tutorial and Allie will show you step-by-step how to connect all the 2-hole tile beads. Make a loop out of seed beads on the end.
3. Sew the Baguette chain to the back of the tiles. 6 inches of chain using seed beads to anchor it and decorate around the outer edge. Glue the Potomac crystal rivoli into the cup button.
