    Quick Project Steps

    The gleaming Carrelage Bracelet has a polished look that makes the perfect accessory for topping off an outfit. Use the techniques learned in this PotomacBeads tutorial to create this as a bangle or clasp styled bracelet or change it up for a pair of earrings or necklace.
    1. Using two size 10 needles, pick up a 15/0, an 11/0 and another 15/0. Bring the two needles up through the cup button. Add three 15/0s on both needles, then criss-cross through an 8/0 seed bead.
    2. Watch the Carrelage bracelet tutorial to follow along with Allie as she shows you how to make the pattern used in the project.
    3. Once you’ve created a loop at the end with seed beads, decorate down the middle of the bracelet by adding tubelets in between the Czech tiles. Tie the two ends together when you get back to the cup button, take the thread to different sides and burn down the ends.
    The Carrelage bracelet is a semi-reversible bracelet that you can have fun making for yourself and others. Handmade gifts are a special way to show someone you care. If you need any of the supplies listed you can find them at PotomacBeads.

    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.
