Quick Project Steps

Start with a thread on a size 10 needle, string a Czech Faceted Rondelle, followed by a Metallic Chocolate 11/0 seed bead, two 3mm Czech Glass Rounds, a 4mm Potomac Crystal Round, and repeat the pattern, ending with a Czech Faceted Rondelle.
After completing the pattern seven times, attach a wire guard and one side of the magnetic clasp.
Continue the pattern on the opposite side, ensuring each strand is tightly pulled to create a puffy appearance around the bracelet.
Repeat the process, adding strands until you achieve the desired width (six strands recommended).
Upon completing the final strand, tie off the ends and trim any excess thread.
