Bracelet with Miyuki Delicas and Buggles

Step 1:
Cut a piece of wire (approx. 1.5m) and place a beading needle at each end.

Step 2:
Thread a bugles bead and slide it to the middle of your thread.

Step 3:
Thread 5 Miyuki Delicas 11/0 onto one of your needles and slide the beads down.

Step 4:
At the other end of the thread, thread through the beads in the opposite direction using a needle.

Step 5:
Pull on the 2 ends of the thread until all 5 beads are brought back to your initial Bugles.

Step 6 :
Repeat the steps, alternating Bugles and groups of 5 Miyuki Delicas, until you obtain a bracelet of the desired length. Recross your wires as you work your way down the beads.

Step 7:
2 finishing options:
- either a woven-only bracelet (then insert the ends of your bracelet into weaving end beads)
- or a shorter bracelet and insert a round-headed nail at each end (cut and make a ring on each side).

Step 8 :
Attach a piece of chain, folded in 2, to each ring on the 2 ends and add a clasp.
