[Tutorial] Crystal Bracelet #12

[beejang]

Okay. Just a little note before the tutorial.

I don't know if you heard this. There are some hackers attacking LJ communities especially the large ones. What they do is hacking into the mod lj, and making the post about moving the comm to other places with new links.

If you see this ... DON'T CLICK THE LINKS. They're virus.

I know my comm is not that large. But I believe some of you are member of other large comms, maybe moderators of your own comm too. So just be careful.

Tutorial : Crystal Bracelet #12
Level : Beginner







This is also not my design. I got the pattern and design from Thai craft magazine.

Equipment :
- Swarovski Bicone Crystal 4 mm.
- Seed Bead
- Nylon Thread
- Jumprings
- Clasp

The colors are tourmaline alike, my favorite set of colors. Jet black, Morion (I heard that Swarovski discontinues this color *cry*), Olivine, Light Olivine, Light Rose, Rose and Ruby.

1.



Cut the nylon thread around 170 - 190 cm. Make a ring of seven seed beads.

2.



At the right thread, string three seed beads and four crystals.

3.



Put the thread into the first crystal (red arrow).

4.



Add seven seed beads to the right thread. Add three seed beads to the left thread. Cross both threads at a crystal (red arrow).

5.



Add two crystals to the left thread. Cross both threads at a crystal (red arrow).

6.



Add two crystals to the below thread. Cross both threads at a crystal (red arrow).

7.



Add seven seed beads to both threads. Cross both threads at a crystal (red arrow).

8.



Put the left thread into the crystal (red arrow) and add one crystal. Cross both threads at a crystal (blue arrow).

9.



Add two crystals to the above thread. Cross both threads at a crystal (red arrow).

10.



Add seven seed beads to both threads. Cross them at a crystal (red arrow).

11.



Put the inner thread into a crystal (red arrow) and add one crystal. Cross both threads at a crystal. Then, you repeat step 6 to 11 until the end. String the threads back into the beads and tie them. Add jumprings and clasp.



Another easy but stunning beautiful one. I hope you like it ♥
