Go back to the basics of bead weaving with this PotomacBeads tutorial. The light jade colored Czech drops with the metallic vintage copper EVA beads give this Captive bracelet a classy look that you’ll be proud to wear out and show off.
1. Size 12 needle on 5 feet of .006 beading thread. Put 1 gold and 1 turquoise seed bead onto the thread. Bring both needles through the cup button. Bring one needle through the button and seed beads and back down the button to reinforce. Add 3 gold seed beads, a Czech drop and another seed bead to each needle.
2. Watch the Captive Bracelet tutorial to see how Allie captures a DiscDuo bead between EVA beads to begin the pattern of the bracelet.
3. Create a loop on the end with turquoise seed beads. Tie off the threads and burn down the ends.
