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 make a 6.5 inch bracelet. For a longer or shorter bracelet, adjust the number of beaded units you weave, and add the corresponding amounts of chain to each side of the bracelet. Please note: if you would like a longer bracelet, you will need to purchase additional chain.

To learn how to make this bracelet from start to finish, please watch our video: How to Make the Giza Bracelet Featuring Super Kheops par Puca beads. In this video, you will learn how to create this design using a combination of 2-hole Super Kheops par Puca, Brick, and Es-O beads with Miyuki round seed beads. You will also see how to use jump rings to attach individual lengths of chain to either side of the bracelet, and how to finish off the bracelet with thread protectors and a magnetic clasp.

Super Kheops Par Puca Beads are double-drilled with a front and back side. For best results, please reference tips in the video about how to orient your beads for proper placement in the design.
