Spring is here! And what we love about spring is wearing colorful jewelry. So, naturally, we thought of this hedgehogbracelet tutorial for women, which will spice up your look!
This bracelet for women was created with Chilli glass beads by Preciosa. These elongated, flattenedchilli-shapedbeads fit perfectly into each other. They allow you to make infinite combinations to create unique embossed jewelry. You can change the colors of the beads to create a piece of jewelry in the tones you like.
So get your beading needles and follow the step-by-step instructions in this tutorial to make an original bracelet.
For beginners who want to get started, take a look at our technical sheets on bead weaving. They're an inexhaustible source of tips and advice on how to make your DIY jewelry a success.

Thread the wire through the outer hole of the bead, from the inside (the groove) to the outside. Thread the wire through the center hole, from the outside in. Thread a 6/0 seed bead. Take the second bead. Thread the wire through the center hole, from outside to outside. Thread the wire through the outer hole inwards. Tighten.
Tie the thread with three knots. Put glue on the knot and slide it inside one of the beads to hide it. Thread the wires back through the beads and cut the wire ends as close to the beads as possible.
Repeat step 6 times with the colors you wish to create 6 components.
Use the opening created between the rocaille and the two beads to thread the 6 components onto the wire.
Pass the wire through the holes a second time to double it. Tie the thread with three knots. Put glue on the knot and slide the knot inside one of the beads to hide it. Thread the wires back through the beads and cut the wire ends as close to the beads as possible. The result is a ring of beads. You can also use thicker wire so you don't have to double it.
Thread all the rings one after the other with elastic thread. Tie the two ends of the thread with a double surgeon's knot. Apply glue to the knot and cut the wires to within 2 mm of the knot.
The bracelet will never keep its shape permanently as the beads are irregular, so you'll need to straighten it. You can adjust the length of the bracelet by adding more or less pearl rings.
