Quick Project Steps
Start with an 8mm bead, threading both cord ends through it.
Add another 8mm bead, threading each end in opposite directions to form the base.
Incorporate larger beads (12mm, then 14mm, and up to 20mm) on one side, maintaining the right-angle weave pattern.
Use the weave technique to create a symmetrical design by stepping up and then decreasing bead sizes.
Finish with a button clasp, ensuring the threads are securely knotted and glued.
Create a double or tripple leather wrap with an extra flair. Use seed beads to create a delicate border to showcase a mosaic of gemstones, crystals and glass. This wrap is comfortable to wear and makes a great piece to take (or make) on a summer vacation destination.

Love shopping with Potomac beads, but there always seems to be a problem with the discount being applied to my orders. If I contact CS they take care of the problem, but it's frustrating not the have it right the first time.
