Use this PotomacBeads tutorial to quickly create an elegant bracelet that sits comfortably on your wrist day or night. The Crush Bracelet is an enjoyable 2 needle project that is appropriate for all beading skill levels.
1. Begin with two needles on .008 Wildfire thread. Put on 3 seed beads and the table cut button. Pick up 2 seed beads on each needle. Criss cross through another seed bead. Make sure you have the same amount of thread on both needles. Pick up 2 more seed beads on each needle. Bring both needles though a halo bead with a rountrio in the middle. Put a rounduo mini on each needle and then another halo/rountrio combo. Continue the pattern until you have the desired length.
2. Add two seed beeds on each needle and criss cross through a third seed beed to form a small loop at the end. Watch the Crush bracelet tutorial to see how to make another loop for the button and decorate the band of the bracelet
3. When you get back to the button, reinforce it by threading through it again. Tie the threads together and bring the ends down into the project away from each other before burning the loose ends.
The Crush Bracelet is easy to master and would make a delightful gift for someone. Find all your beading needs at PotomacBeads.
