About this design:
I used Lima's new waxed nylon cord for this shimmering sandy-toned bracelet. I love this look, it reminds me of a fish net.
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
You will need waxed nylon cord, a strand of Czech glass 6mm druks/rounds, an arca shell focal, and a fish bone charm.

Step-by-Step Instructions:
|
Step 1: You will need 3 18" pieces of the waxed nylon, knot them together at the top. Leave some extra at the top of our knot. I used a clipboard to hold my cords in place. |
|
Step 2: Start a braid and add a bead, a bead should go wherever the arch of the braid is, no knotting required. |
|
Step 3: Keep braiding and adding beads to your desired length. |
|
Step 4: Tie a knot or square knot to finish off the braid. Attach your clasp. Clean any frayed edges and secure your knots by burning them slightly with a lighter. |

Crystal Canary says:Very, very cool! I love those etched druks in this design! The shell is the perfect touch to help anchor the bracelet.
