To modify the length, simply adjust the number of beads strung respectively.
- Begin by cutting two equal lengths of beading wire, about 10 inches each. Put the two strands ends side by side and place a bead stopper about two inches in on both wires.
- String two black seed beads on to each strand then string on the Tila beads in a random order, alternating the colors and sizes. Please refer to project photo for inspiration. Once you have reached your desired length string on two black seed beads to each strand.
- String on one crimp tube on to both strands. Thread the beading wire through one end of the magnetic clasp and back through the crimp tube and pull snug. Crimp the crimp tube. Trim any excess wire. Add a crimp cover.
- Move to the other side of the bracelet and remove the bead stopper. Repeat the above step on this side of the bracelet.
