This is how I used to make personalized bracelets, back in the 80's. Customer got to pick 2 colors, one for the background, and one for the lettering. I used a cross-stitch pattern as a chart for the letters. I had one that was 5 blocks high, so that's how many beads went in each row. To keep costs down, instead of using clasps, I stitched each one to a piece of black ribbon and sewed a bit of black elastic to the ribbon to make it fit as a slip on stretch bracelet. What turned out to be a really popular request was sports team names/colors. I made one for my nephew, at his request, in blue and gray that said "Cowboys" on it. I told him to wear it to school and show it off, and I'd give him $1 for every bracelet he sold. I didn't expect him to sell them to half the kids in the school, and a lot of teachers, too. And a lot of them bought multiple bracelets, one for each sport. We both made mad cash that year.
AMAZING TUTORIAL....EASY to follow! THANKYOU! everything i am learning about seed bead bracelets I've learned from your videos! my biggest challenge is what colors to use!
Love your bracelet. This I will try and make a few. I have so many beads it will be nice to use them up quickly. Thank You for your time and video. Have a Beautiful week. :)
I prefer to work with 25 -30 cm from the beginning than I add more thread by making a knot. It will get hidden through the beads . See how I did in this tutorial ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S8h8jbzeCCQ.html
I wanted to know the same….I’m having a hard time starting and stopping because all I have is lobster claws and o rings…the lobster claw I can get on with the triangle starting thing but ending with a larger opening o ring has been difficult to figure out…please help lol
jey kate..use a short thread for the beginning (20-30 inc ) Add more if you need by making a knot . The knot wont be seen , it will get hidden through the beads . watch this tutorial , see how I add more thread. THX for comm. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ABlaUMprGPM.html
