↓ Step-by-step

↓ Buy the supplies

Supplies you’ll need:

Black Onyx Matte w/ Polished Wavy Band Round 8mm
Tibetan (Dzi) Agate Black & White Patterned Faceted Round 8mm
gold spacers
gold murex shell
gold scallop shell
gold nautilus charm
gold nautilus bead
elastic cord
1 head pin

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Wrap the elastic cord around your wrist twice and cut. Slide the beads on in the order shown. Be sure to keep the nautilus bead last, it will cover the knot. Be sure the bracelet fits your wrist.

Step 2

Knot the cord. This image is from another design but shows the technique I used for this bracelet. Knot the elastic bracelet as shown. Wrap the right cord around the left twice and pull to tighten a little. Take the left cord and wrap it around the right cord twice. Place a knotting tool or small screwdriver in the middle of the twisted cords. Pull the cord ends to tighten the bracelet. Once you have pulled the cord closed, pull out the tool and tighten the rest of the way. Add a dot of glue to the knot. Slide a bead over to hide the knot.

Step 3

Slide the scallop bead onto a head pin. Create a loop at the top using pliers or a looper tool. Attach the charms onto the bracelet using the jump rings.
