First you'll need to prepare the materials and make sure you have everything ready!
The first step, cut your elasitc cord to 9 1/2 inches. Place a BeadStopper at the end of the cord and start stringing the Magnesite Gemstones, SMAG024, on the cord. Our finished bracelet measures a little over 7 inches finished and we used 16 of those beads total.
Start by stringing on about 4 beads, then add the split ring with the OM Charm attached. String on the other 4 more beads then add the gold plated TierraCast Bead. Repeat the step of adding 4 more beads and then add Pave bead. Added the remaining beads to match the other side of the bracelet. **Please make sure that you're using enough beads so the bracelet fits you or your client. All wrist are different and this sample bracelet was measured to 6 inch wrist.**
Using the BeadStopper, make sure this bracelet fits to your liking before tying the knot on the elastic cord. Once you've got the right size, tie the knot on the elastic cord. Make sure you're keeping the beads nice and close and you're making the knot durable and tight. Before cutting the access elastic, add a bit of glue on the knot. Wait for that to dry, then pull the cord through a bead to hide the knot. Then cut the left over cord. Your bracelet is done. |
