| Directions
1)
Be sure that you have a flat, surface on which
to work.
2)
Put a piece of masking tape on one end of your
string and set aside. This will close one end
of your string and keep the beads from falling
off while stringing.
3)
Layout the design of your bracelet on your bead
mat.
4)
When you are happy with your design, then start
stringing your beads onto the cording or thread.
5)
Have a friend help you test your bracelet for
size by holding it around your wrist. Be careful
not to drop your bracelet.
6)
Make any necessary size adjustments. To make the
bracelet bigger, add some beads, to make the bracelet
smaller, remove the a few beads. It is always
better to make the bracelet a little bit bigger
than your wrist.
7)
Once the size is right tie a double knot to finish
your bracelet To make your knot is nice and tight,
tug on the ends to be sure.
8)
Once your knot is tightened, use scissors to cut
off the extra string.
