Pearl Hugs Bracelet Tutorial

Prepare the materials Gather the Iris Duos, pearl rondelles, 2 mm crystals, 11/0 seed beads, button clasp, and beading thread. Set up two needles Thread both ends of the same thread with a needle and leave enough thread for finishing. Attach the button clasp Use 11/0 seed beads to connect the two needles to the button, creating a secure starting point. Add the first Iris Duo Position the Iris Duo correctly and pass the needles through it to establish the bracelet's foundation. Build the repeating pattern Add 11/0 seed beads, Iris Duos, and pearl rondelles, maintaining even tension as you work. Cross through each pearl Pass the two needles through the same pearl from opposite directions to connect each section securely. Continue to the desired length Repeat the bead sequence until the bracelet fits comfortably around the wrist. Create the button loop Form a loop at the opposite end using seed beads and reinforce the connection with a 2 mm crystal. Add crystal embellishments Weave 2 mm crystals along the sides of the pearls to add sparkle and help keep the pearls centered. Finish the bracelet Reinforce the ends, tie off both threads behind the clasp, trim or burn the excess thread, and check that the button and loop are secure
