02
Thread rocaille seed beads
and faceted beads onto a
piece (35 cm long in this
example) of beading wire
according to your taste.
03
Bracelets are made from a mix of rocaille seed
beads and faceted beads threaded onto a piece
of beading wire. Tassels made from mercerised
cotton yarn are attached for further decoration.
The fastener is a lobster claw clasp, decorated
with a pendant.
Thread a small crimp bead
onto the beading wire. Feed
the beading wire around a
round jump ring and then
through the crimp bead.
Tighten – close to the round
jump ring – and squeeze the
crimp bead with flat nose
pliers to keep it in place.
As an extension and as extra
decoration, make a small chain
from round jump rings, by
opening them, putting them
together and closing them.
Attach a small pendant to the
outer round jump ring and
attach the finished chain at the
opposite end of the lobster
claw clasp.
Remove the yarn from the
piece of card and attach to an
opened round jump ring which
is then closed using two pliers.

Wrap one of the long ends
around the bundle, close to
the round jump ring. Now tie it
to the other end with a couple
of knots. Trim the two ends at
the same length as the bundle
and cut it open to make a
tassel.
Attach the tassel onto the
bracelet before closing the
bracelet. Finish by threading a
crimp bead onto the wire and
a lobster claw clasp (same
procedure as in step 2).
Tighten the wire so the the
beads are closed and
squeeze the crimp bead flat.
