These instructions will make a finished bracelet just over 7". To lengthen or shorten the bracelet, simply adjust the number of amazonite beads.
- Cut a piece of Opelon stretch cord about 1 foot long. Place a bead stopper 3-4 inches from one end of the cord.
- Place a big eye needle on the free end of your cord. String 1 amazonite bead, 1 gold plated crystal rhinestone ball, 12 amazonite beads, 1 rhinestone ball, and 1 amazonite bead onto your cord.
- Pull your needle through one side of the gold plated curved crystal cross bar and through the first inner hole.
- Remove the bead stopper and thread the cord through the other end of the cross and through the remaining inner hole.
- Tie your ends in a knot, pulling the cord snug but not too tight. Make sure your knot is nice and tight and trim the cord ends 1/8" from the knot.
