Handmade beaded bracelets out of affordable
jewelry making materials
It’s easy to overspend when making your own
jewelry ornaments, and it can be relatively hard to
find the proper affordable jewelry making materials
that reflect your individuality and taste. We suggest
you try out economical acrylic beads. They are the
combination of lightweight and vivid colors, and you
can truly make beautiful creations with distinctive
and satisfying qualities.
Needed jewelry making materials:
10mm & 8mm Colorful Acrylic Bead
Toggle and T-bar Clasp
1mm Nylon Thread
Scissors
Lighter
Instructions on handmade beaded bracelets:
Step 1: Make the 1st beaded part
This post aims at demonstrating how you can make handmade beaded bracelets in a simple way while
introducing some of inexpensive jewelry making materials into your crafts.
1. Cut a 100cm long nylon wire and fold in half;
2. Tie the thread to the loop of a toggle using
the Larks Head Knot;
3. Insert one end of the wire through a bead,
and the second end in the opposite direction;
4. Add one acrylic bead onto each cord end.
Cross the two ends again through a new bead;
5. Keep adding beads and weaving like this until
you have reached the desired length. All beads
added in the pattern are random and irregular;
6. When two working ends exit at the last
bead, tie an overhand knot to secure in place;
7. Slide on the matching T-bar of the toggle
and affix by tying another knot. Pull the cords
tautly;
8. After you have secured the bar firmly, trim
off all leftover cord ends and melt them using
a lighter.
Step 2: bead the 2nd part
1. Take another strand of string. Attach it to the
toggle and add the 1st bead in same way;
2. Pass the below end through the adjacent bead in
the first pattern. On the other end, string on another
acrylic bead. Finally, cross the wire through another
piece. Tighten the cord and this will be the basic
beading method in the 2nd pattern;
3. Repeat the above step to the desired length;
4. Add on T-bar as before.
Step 3: wear your handmade beaded bracelets
Take the item and wear on your wrist as soon as possible. It’s so cute and I really love it!
There you go! You have completed the handmade
beaded bracelets! Though the jewelry making
materials are just common acrylic beads without a
splendid gloss and a delicate cut, the final results
are amazingly fabulous and amusing! Hope you will
love it.
