    Quick Project Steps

    "Prepare Thread and First Guard: Thread a needle onto both ends of your thread, slide a wire guard to the center, and pick up one 15/0 seed bead on each needle. Anchor First Central Bicone: Pick up a 4mm crystal bicone on one needle and crisscross the second needle through it from the opposite direction to lock the guard in place. Load First Set of Mini Duos: String one 15/0, one Mini Duo, and two 15/0s on each needle, then pass each needle through the open second hole of its Mini Duo. Incorporate the Round Duo: Pick up one Round Duo, crisscross both needles through its first hole, then loop around to crisscross both needles through its second hole without adding extra beads. Complete First Base Unit: Load a Mini Duo and two 15/0s onto each needle, pass through each Mini Duo's second hole, add a 15/0 to each thread, and crisscross through a central bicone. Build Bracelet Length: Repeat the unit sequence (Mini Duos, Round Duo, Mini Duos, central bicone) until you reach your desired wrist size, ending the base row on a central bicone. Attach Second Wire Guard: Pick up a 15/0 on each needle, pass both needles up and down through the channels of the second wire guard, thread back through the outer 15/0s, and crisscross through the end bicone. Position Thread for Edging: Weave both needles through the adjacent 15/0 seed beads, up through the outer hole of the Mini Duo, and out through the pair of edge 15/0 seed beads. Add Side Bicones and Pearls: Work down both sides of the bracelet, placing a bicone across from each Round Duo and a 3mm pearl across from each base bicone through the edge 15/0 pairs. Reinforce, Tie Off, and Add Hardware: Weave through internal beads to tighten the lattice, tie threads off with a right-over-left square knot, singe the tails, and connect your toggle clasp to the wire guards using an odd number of jump rings.
