Instructions
- Cut a length of thread 4-6 feet long. Add the thread to your needle.
- Add a roof bead, a triangle bead, a brick bead, and a triangle bead to the thread. Make sure they all face up (the roof point is facing up and the triangle tip is facing up) and that you thread through the stringing hole on the same side of each bead. Repeat this pattern for the desired length for a bracelet, finishing with a roof bead and keep in mind the clasp will add about 1 inch in length.
- Add 10 Demi Round beads to the thread and then go through the second hole of the roof bead. Go through the open stringing holes of all of the beads you have already strung, until you are coming out of the roof bead at the other end of the bracelet.
- Add 10 Demi Round beads to the thread and then go through the other stringing hole of the roof bead.
- Go through the triangle bead next to it. Add a round seed bead, a Demi Round, a round, a Demi round, and a round seed bead. Skip over the brick bead and go through the next triangle bead and roof bead. Repeat this step for the length of the bracelet.
- Weave your thread around to the other side of the bracelet, until you are coming out of the first triangle bead on this side and repeat the previous step on this side of the bracelet.
- When you reach the end of the bracelet, go back through the loop of 10 Demi Rounds on this end of the bracelet. Then, add four seed beads to the thread. Skip over the roof bead and triangle bead and go through the edge of round and Demi Round seed beads you added before. Repeat for the length of the bracelet.
- Repeat the previous step for the other side of the bracelet.
- Secure and trim your thread.
- Add each half of your clasp to each end of the bracelet using a jump ring for each.
