[Tutorial] Crystal Bracelet #9
Another easy bracelet for beginner. Enjoy!
Tutorial : Crystal Bracelet #9
Level : Beginner
Pictures under cut.
This is not my design. Again, I saw it at Bead2U.com
Equipment :
- Swarovski Bicone Crystal 4 mm.
- Seed Bead
- Nylon Thread
- O-ring
- Clasp
- Crimp bead
- Bead tip
- Pliers
Pick up any color you want. Here I use five colors.
1.
Cut three nylon threads around 80 - 90 cm each. String the crimp bead into the three threads and put the threads inside the bead tip as in the picture. You will get six threads.
2.
Crush the bead tip by using pliers. You will get the start of the bracelet (red arrow). Then pick up any two threads, add six seed beads to each thread and cross both threads at a crystal (blue arrow).
3.
Add crystal to each thread and join them at a crystal (red arrow).
4.
Go back to the start. Pick up another two threads. Add six seed beads to each thread and cross them at a crystal (red arrow).
5.
Pick up the thread that point inward, put the thread into the crystal we did in step 3 (red arrow). Pick up the other thread, add a crystal and join both threads at a crystal (blue arrow).
6.
Now back to the start again and pick up the remaining two threads. Add six seed beads to each thread and cross them at a crystal (red arrow).
7.
This is the same as step 5. Put the inward thread into the crystal (red arrow). The other thread adds a crystal. Join both threads at a crystal (blue arrow).
8.
I believe you get the idea how to weave this bracelet. Other steps will be the same. I use eight seed beads between the crystals but you can use six or any number you want. You can bead them together or one pair of threads at a time.
9.
End the bracelet with bead tip and crimp beads. Pull all the threads tightly before crushing the crimp bead. Add the clasp.
And the bracelet is done!
