Skill Level: Beginner
Vibrant turquoise SuperDuo 2-hole beads are accented with black seed beads in this stretch bracelet. Wear this bracelet to add a pop of color to your everyday look.
Instructions
Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for up-to-date information.
Before you begin, measure your wrist to determine how long you want your bracelet to be. I made mine about 1 1/2" larger than my wrist.
  1. Begin by cutting six 1' lengths of Opelon floss stretch cord.
  2. Gather the lengths together and place a bead stopper 2-3 inches from one end of the cords.
  3. String your beads onto the cords in the following pattern:
  4. Row 1: Place a turquoise SuperDuo bead onto the first two cords. Then place a turquoise SuperDuo bead on the middle two cords, and another onto the last two cords.
  5. Row 2: String a black diamond Czech seed bead onto the first cord. Then place a SuperDuo bead onto the next two cords, and another onto the two cords after those. String another black diamond seed bead onto the last cord.
  6. Row 3: Repeat row 1.
  7. Row 4: String black Czech seed bead onto the first cord. Then place a turquoise SuperDuo bead onto the next two cords, and another onto the two cords after those. String another black seed bead onto the last cord.
  8. Repeat the pattern until your bracelet is the desired length.
  9. Watch the video: How To Make a Stretch Bracelet. This video will show you how to connect the ends of your bracelet and finish off the cords.
  10. Your bracelet is now ready.
