    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Materials: Gather all beads, the tube clasp, and crimp tubes as listed.
    Strand Preparation: Begin with the focal strand (middle), using 8mm Czech pearls, and design your pattern. Use smaller beads towards the ends to prevent clustering at the clasp.
    Stringing Beads: Follow your pattern, alternating between Czech pearls, crystal rondelles, and Miyuki seed beads. Ensure the focal strand is pearl-heavy.
    Attaching to Clasp: Start with the middle strand for crimping to the tube clasp, ensuring an even length across all strands. Repeat the process for the remaining strands.
    Adjusting Lengths: Ensure all strands are of equal length for a balanced finish. Adjust by adding or removing beads as necessary.
    Final Crimping: Secure all strands to both ends of the clasp with crimp tubes. Ensure no extra wire is showing for a neat finish.
    Customization: Feel encouraged to vary the beads and colors to make the bracelet uniquely yours.

    I don't know why you have the drop-down boxes -- I can see them but can't get to them. I had to use search for everything. Why do you list things that are on sale if they are out of stock? Are they still going to be on sale when they are back in stock?
