PROJECT TIP:
A. E beads are a common name for size 6/0 seed beads.
B. This bracelet works well in a variety of color combinations. Try mixing red E beads with large black beads or green E beads with large purple beads.
C. This bracelet fits a 7” wrist. To adjust the pattern for a different size, use a bead board to arrange the beads and measure before stringing.
