    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Materials: Gather Miyuki 11/0 seed beads, tila beads, triangle or cube beads, two beading needles, a clasp bead, and Wildfire beading thread.
    Start the Bracelet: Attach the clasp with a picot trim, then create a starter triangle with seed beads.
    First Tila and Outer Loop: Add your first tila bead by crisscrossing needles through it. Then, create the outer loop with seed beads and a triangle or cube bead.
    Inner Loop Formation: After the outer loop, form an inner loop with fewer seed beads to add dimension.
    Continuing the Pattern: Repeat the process of adding tila beads and forming outer and inner loops, ensuring to alternate for dimensional layers.
    Finishing Touches: Conclude the bracelet with a loop large enough for the clasp bead to fit through and secure the ends.

    During checkout, the module did not accept my card verification number until I refreshed the page. I placed the correct three digit number in multiple times and kept getting the error.

    Bonjour! C'est une première expérience d'achat chez Potomacbeads.com J'avoue que je suis ravie. J'ai même reçu un cadeau. Je ne m'attendais pas à ça!! C'est génial et je ne peux que remercier pour cette belle attention! J'ai reçu de très jolies pierres. Je les adore!! Comme je suis québécoise francophone, c'est un peu plus compliqué. Par contre, je n'ai que des bons mots pour POTOMACBEADS Merci pour votre professionnalisme . . . .
