    Quick Project Steps

    Start with an arm's length of thread and a stop bead. Use DiscDuo beads and two colors of Miyuki 11/0 beads to form the base of the bracelet. Add five beads (two primary color 11/0s, one secondary, and two more primary) to each side of the DiscDuo beads. Secure the beads by passing through them multiple times. Attach an 8/0 bead at the end of the bracelet for clasp attachment. Add Potomac Crystal Bicone beads between the DiscDuo beads using a combination of 11/0, 15/0 beads, and a crystal. Finish the bracelet by adding a clasp using jump rings connected to the 8/0 beads. Go through all the beads again for added stability and tie off the thread.
