Key Code:

A = Curved Tube Bead B = Freshwater Pearls C = Polymer Clay, Floral Rd. D = Mashan Jade, Dyed Hot Pink E = Windmill Spacer, Matte Gold

Instructions on Construction:

1. Cut 1 x 12” piece of Stretch Magic, pre-stretch cord then attach bead stop to one end of stretch cord about 2 1/2” from end.

2. Thread On: B (9) * These pearls are a little fatter on one end so make sure they are all pointing in the same direction, A (1), C (7), E (1).

3. Tie two square knots and tighten firmly between each knot.

4. Thread one tail through the windmill spacer bead, add glue to all sides of knot then pull tail to center the knot inside the bead.

5. Leave the bracelet for a couple of hours (time for glue to dry firmly) then trim tails. You can hold onto one tail, pull the opposite tail & trim close as you can. The other side you just trim as close as you can as you have nothing to hold onto.

6. *** Same instructions for the second bracelet except for the threading sequence D (8), A (1), C (8), E (1).

7. Now you can try on your bracelets and admire your handiwork. Enjoy!
