Woven Bangles

Project details:

in favorites

These weave-able bangles make it easy to create unique designs using thread & seed beads.

Supplies you’ll need:

Bangles, Seed Beads, Czech Glass, C-Lon Thread

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Coming from the back of the bracelet, string the C-Lon cord through the bottom hole and then back up through the top hole. Come back through the second top hole.

Step 2

Next, draw out a design on graph paper so you can easily follow the order in which you want your seed beads.

Step 3

Beginning on the second hole (don't string the beads onto the thread that's in the first set of holes),string three 11/0 seed beads on the thread, weave the thread back through the bottom hole.

Step 4

Continue following your pattern until the bracelet is filled.

Step 5

You can also use thicker thread & weave a larger bead onto the bracelet.

Step 6

For a bracelet using a single bead, when you bring the thread back through, you'll want to bring the thread through the bead a second time so it's more secure.
