    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare your materials and thread two needles with approximately five feet of beading thread.
    Start by attaching the cup button with three 11/0 seed beads, a 2-hole bar bead, and the cup button itself, then create the base for the first tulip.
    Construct the tulip using crescent beads for the outer petals and 2-hole bar beads for the inner detail, secured with 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads for added texture and contrast.
    Link each tulip together with crystal rondelle beads, repeating the process to achieve the desired bracelet length.
    Finish the bracelet by creating a loop with seed beads for the clasp mechanism.
    Secure and trim the thread ends with a thread burner, applying a dab of glue for extra security.

    I love everything about Potomac beads, except for the dragon fire white thread. I bought the time before it was a 250 spool and I bought 5 pound because the 6 pound I had was just humongous you've done some changing with your threads since the last time I bought some. I fell and broke my right arm and my rotator cuff and wasn't able to be for quite a while. I just pulled out the 5 pound white thread. I bought the time before and tried it. I don't even think I could bezel with it. The 6 pound does beautiful. I took one arm span of thread off the spool and I won't be using it. It's a shame because I truly love yours thread.
