    Quick Project Steps

    The detailed instructions for creating the Architect Bracelet involve making individual components and connecting them. The key steps include:
    Start by preparing the beads for one component.
    Thread the needle with a comfortable length of beading thread, adding a stop bead.
    Begin by adding crescent beads, alternating with seed beads, followed by two-hole triangles, forming a circular component.
    Secure a DiscDuo bead in the center of the component.
    Repeat the process to create the necessary number of components for the bracelet length.
    Connect the components using additional DiscDuo beads and seed beads for embellishment.
    Finish with adding a clasp using a wire guard for durability.

    Happy with the products, but disappointed that it so long to receive it. Item was ordered on April 29th and they shipped on April 30th first class mail- it finally came on May 21st. Good thing it wasn't anything that was needed right away.

    It's obnoxious that the site tries to sell customers other things during the checkout process. The purchase button is brighter and more noticeable than the "No thanks" button, which probably tricks many naive customers and makes them not want to shop here again.
