Again, you may wish to simply attempt to make similar sized strips of paper, without
measuring.

woven through the first paper we started.

Activity 5: Cute Braided Bracelets

Things that are needed:

o 1 Board or Tray
o 75 cm Waxed Cord
o Sellotape or bulldog Clip
o 1 Large Button or round bead
o 1 m Beading Thread
o Needle
o Scissors
o Bead(s)

o Glue

Instruction:

Step 1
Measure your cord and cut it to length. For a single wrap bracelet
75cm should be ample.
If you are using a button, thread the cord through the holes and
secure it in the centre of the cord with the cords at the back of the
button. I'm using the large round metal disc layered with one of the
decorative wooden discs on top as a fastener.
I folded the cord in half, threaded the fold through the hole from the
front to the back and then passed the cord through the loop, pulling
it tight to form a knot.

Step 2
Knot the cord close to your bead or button several times to secure
it in place.

Step 3
I taped the bead to a tray to secure it in place and make it easier to get under and around it.
Many beaders use a clipboard for this but I find that a tray serves two purposes - it holds the
cord in place, allowing you to get under and around more easily and the
tray is a great place for keeping the beads you are working with close at
hand and under control.
Cut a length of beading thread and thread it onto a needle. I've cut mine to
about 1 metre long.
Secure your thread a short distance away from the last knot in the cord. If
you are using larger beads then your beads will need to start further away
than if you were using smaller beads.
Step 4
The first bead needs to be more securely attached than the rest of the beads.
With your needle pointing into the centre weaving area, thread on your first
bead and take the needle through the cord on the opposite side.
Step 5
Take the needle over the left hand cord and thread the needle back through
the bead.

Step 6
*Thread a second bead onto the needle and push it all the way to the cord.
Pass the needle and thread under the two cords; position the bead between
the two cords. Now push the bead upwards slightly so that the bead holes are
above the cords ...

Step 7
...coming over the left cord, pass the needle and thread back through the
bead from left to right.** The bead weaving technique is repeated from * to
** until your bracelet is the desired length.
To prevent the beads from bulging, slipping or gapping, work a small stitch
into the right cord after every 5th bead or so, then continue with the weaving
pattern. Also, don't 'squash' the beads together, but try to leave a fraction of a mm between
each bead.

Step 8
If you wish to add different sized beads, the size change needs to be
gradual for it to remain neat.
Wrap bead bracelets look great with blocks of different colours and
varying bead sizes. It tends not to work so well adding just one smaller
bead between two larger ones though. I loved the pretty round ceramic
beads with a subtle flower pattern, however when I tried to add a single
round bead and then continue with the bigger turquoise beads I was getting an ugly gap where
the beading thread was showing between the cord and the bead. To solve the problem I added
a couple of tiny seed beads on either side of my round bead to bridge the gap for a much neater
finish.

Step 9
Keep trying on your bracelet to make sure you get the perfect fit. You want
your beads to wrap comfortably around your wrist, just stopping when they
meet the large bead or button.

Step 10
When your bracelet is as long as you want it to be, tie a knot in the
cords close to the last bead.
Step 11
To make your fastening loop, knot the cord again further down, making sure that the loop will
slide snugly over your large bead or button.

Step 12
Finally cut the cord close to the final knot. You can add
a drop of jewellery glue to the knot and any thread
ends for extra security.

Step 13
Enjoy wearing your bracelet!

Step 14
I love the casual style of this bracelet so much that I decided to make a simple necklace to
match. What do you think? It's quite different to my usual style of jewellery, but that's part of the
beauty of a subscription box - it encourages you to try projects outside of your comfort zone.
