Bead Weaving
Crystal and Bead Bracelet # Two
So I did weave the bracelet and I did take it off the loom, but the day got ahead (or behind?) me and I didn’t get to add the clasp. That gives me an entire grade off starting at a B although I do like this bracelet better than the first AND the photos are a lot better. At least you will be able to see the detail and get a feel for how this was set up on the loom and how the beads fit in their little places. I have used both 11/0 and 8/0 seeds beads as well as the 4mm crystals. One crystal, three 11/0 seed beads and two 8/0 seeds beads fit in the space between the warp threads. I’ve used C-Lon fine beading cord for warp and C-Lon size D beading thread to string and weave the beads.
Half way there!

I am very new to bead weaving but my inspiration to learn was from a bracelet just like this. Is there any way to obtain the instructions. I just love it and would love to try to make one like it.
Thank you

We do not have any instructions for this bracelet. We do have a similar kit in our store, though: http://blog.mirrixlooms.com/store/desertbraceletkit.html. Enjoy!
