I love these Czech glass SuperDuo 2-hole seed beads in amethyst. They give off a beautiful glow, especially when paired with the bright gold in this bracelet design.
Reboot: We are happy to have been able to reboot this project. Please note the slight color changes from the original components used; we hope you like our new choices.

Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

These instructions will give you a bracelet that is approximately 7 1/2 inches in length.

Cut a piece of wire that is 22" in length.
Onto one side of the wire, thread 29 11/0 gold seed beads. Slide them down so that they are in the center of the wire.
Thread one duo bead on to both ends of the wire, threading one end of the wire through one hole and the other end through the second hole. This will keep your wires separated. Think of the wires being a left and a right wire.
You will string the remaining beads in this pattern:
One gold bead, one superduo, one gold bead on the left wire. One gold bead, one superduo, one gold bead on the right wire. Thread one superduo on to both ends of the wire, with each wire going through one of the holes.
Once you have strung 6 3/4 inches (or your desired length), take both ends of the wire and thread on one crimp tube. Thread both ends of the wire through the loop of the button and back down through the crimp tube. Pull snug. Crimp the crimp tube. Clip the ends of the wire.
To close the bracelet, slip the gold seed bead loop over the button.
All done!
