Timeless Grace Bracelet Tutorial

Learn how to create an elegant pearl bracelet using 15/0 seed beads, 4mm pearls, and 3mm crystals in a structured right-angle weave pattern. The project begins with a base loop of six 4mm beads reinforced for stability, followed by adding 15/0 seed beads between 3mm bicones to achieve a subtle diamond effect. Using Dragon Thread (size six), a size 10 needle, and a stop bead, the design is extended by repeating the process of adding pearls, bicones, and seed beads. The clasp is secured with a wire guard and reinforced for durability. For a wider and more decorative bracelet, additional beads can be added along the sides, with final adjustments to tension and reinforcement ensuring a polished, sturdy finish.

    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare the Thread & Stop Bead: Cut a comfortable length of Dragon thread. Add a stop bead to prevent beads from sliding off. Create the Base Loop: String six 4mm pearls, forming a circular shape. Reinforce by threading through the pearls again to secure. Begin the Right-Angle Weave: Pick up one 3mm crystal, one 15/0 seed bead, one 3mm crystal, then go through the next pearl in the loop. Repeat this pattern all around. Extend the Bracelet: Continue adding pearls, bicones, and seed beads in the same pattern to achieve the desired length. Attach the Clasp: Secure a wire guard at one end and loop the clasp through. Reinforce by weaving through multiple times. Final Reinforcement & Finishing Touches: Go back through the bracelet, tightening the weave for durability. Add decorative beads to the sides if desired. Tie off and weave in the thread ends neatly.

    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.
