Prepare Your Materials: Gather three colors of size 11/0 seed beads and your chosen accent beads (3mm cubes, 8/0 seed beads, bugle beads).
Setup: Arrange your beads in the order you will use them on your bead mat.
Start Beading: Cut a piece of thread, leaving a tail. String the beads in the following order to start: two seed beads, one accent bead, repeating with the next colors and accents.
Form the Loop: Loop the thread back through the initial two seed beads to form a circle.
Build the Helix: Follow the pattern by adding two seed beads and one accent bead, then looping through the first seed bead of the previous sequence. This creates the spiral effect.
Continue the Pattern: Keep adding beads following the helix pattern, ensuring the tubular shape is maintained.
Finishing: End the bracelet with a cap or cone and attach a clasp as desired.
