  4. The clasp will add approximately 1/4" to your bead weaving. To attach the clasp, please watch this video: How to Attach Tube Clasps to Peyote Bead Weaving.
  5. Follow the instructions in the video to weave your clasp onto one side of your bracelet.
  6. Repeat the previous step for the other edge of your bracelet. Tie off and weave in your threads.
