Instructions:
This project results in a 6.5" bracelet. If you need a longer one, please purchase an additional pack of BMB-5305 Antique Brass 4mm Cube Beads.
- Cut as long of a length of Wildfire black beading thread as you are comfortable working with and thread it onto a size 12 beading needle. Place a stop bead 12 inches from the end.
-
Please watch the video tutorial How to Bead Weave a Metal Bead Bracelet using Modified Ladder Stitch. This video shows how to make the Firenze bracelet and how to attach the clasp.

You will also need to reference the video: How to Tie Off and Add New Thread in Bead Weaving. During the course of this project you will most likely need to add more thread once or twice.

Tip: Check package quantities for each component. You may have extra material to make more than one finished project, or will have leftovers for other projects. In some cases, adding on just one more package of a component may be all you need to make multiple pieces.
