Early Spring Bracelet

early-spring-bracelet.jpgIf you’re looking for a quick project, you can’t beat this bright and cheery bracelet that will have you wishing for an early spring!

First, you’ll need a unique focal piece with four eyelets. Choose something bright and colorful, preferably one with several colors with which you can coordinate different colored beads throughout the length of the bracelet.

Cut four pieces of beading wire of equal length, according to how long you’ll need your bracelet to be. Your focal piece will be the center of your bracelet, and you will have four beaded strands, two on each side. Take the ends of your beading wire and thread them through the eyelets in the same way you would to add a clasp. Add your crimp beads and crimp them with your crimping pliers. Now add your beads to all four strands and bring both sets of wire through a single crimp bead on each side. Crimp your beads, add your clasp and you’re done!

Kelly,
I got this special little flower bead at Edy Beady Beads (I think that’s the name); it is a local shop here in Ohio, and there’s not another one. Checking local specialty bead bead shops is always a good idea for an original piece. All the best to you in your beading quest!
