Gray Balance Bracelet (Spring Colors Reboot)

PROJECT B2351
Designer: Kat Silvia
Skill Level: Intermediate
Czech glass 2-hole Chevron beads and Cabochon beads come together in this design to provide a geometric style bead woven bracelet.
Reboot: The colors originally used in this project photo are no longer available. This project has been rebooted in rosy spring tones with gold accents. If you have favorite colors of your own, please feel free to use them for this design—the 2-hole Chevron beads come in a wonderful variety of hues.
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.

This bracelet measures approximately 6.75 inches. To modify the length, simply adjust the length woven respectively. Please note, we recommend purchasing two strands of the Chevron beads to accommodate the pattern of alternating colors as seen in the video, even though you will get enough beads in one strand to make a 6.75 inch bracelet.
