Materials

  • (Appx 1/10th tube) “Dazzle-It!” Beadlettes in Green Iris (24g tube)

  • (Appx ½ tube) “Toho” 6/0 e-beads in Matter Blue-Green (9g tube)

  • (1) “Cousin: Jewelry Basics” 3-strand magnetic clasp

  • (Appx 30’’) “Beadalon” .018’’ bead stringing wire (30’spool)

  • (6) Silver #2 crimp tubes

  • Crimper

  • Nipper

  • (2) Bead Bugs or pieces of tape

Directions

  1. Cut three pieces of beading wire at about 10’’ each. Attach each one to one side of the clasp, using the crimp tubes and crimper.

  2. On the middle strand, string on three e-beads and a beadlette. Repeat for about 7.5 inches. Connect the wire end to the middle hole on the other end of the clasp.

  3. On one of the other strands, alternate stringing on three beadlettes and an e-bead, until it’s the same length as the first strand. Put a bead bug on the end, or a piece of tape.

  4. On the last strand, alternate stringing on one e-bead and one beadlette. Put a bead bug on this strand too.

  5. Braid the three strands together, as loosely or tightly as desired.

  6. Remove the bead bug off of one of the strands, and connect it to the other end of the clasp. Make sure to keep the clasp facing the correct direction. Remove the other bead bug and connect the strand to the last loop on the clasp.
