Quick Project Steps

Thread two needles with a wingspan length of beading thread. Start with a cup button clasp, adding three 11/0 seed beads before passing both needles through the button. Add one 11/0 seed bead on each needle, then an Arcos bead with both needles. Continue the pattern: two 11/0 seed beads, one Arcos bead, one 11/0 seed bead, one Minos bead on each needle, and repeat. Once the bracelet reaches the desired length (about 14 inches for a double wrap), add 26 11/0 seed beads on one needle to create a loop for the clasp. Secure the thread with a square knot and trim or burn the ends.
