3 Easy Beaded Bracelet Tutorials

Posted: 07 Nov 2012 05:00 AM PST


There is few things more satisfying than completing a lovely beaded bracelet quickly.  Getting something to wear in short order is a good thing.  So here are 3 pretty but easy beaded bracelets to try.


Artbeads' Golden Grace bracelet tutorial (shown above) is a lovely vision of Swarovski crystals and pearls.  I must say Swarovski faux pearls are just lovely to work with.

Right angle weave and Swarovski crystals are also the basis of Shireen's pretty beaded bracelet tutorial over on her blog, The Blue Brick.  She used faceted rounds.  Blue must be her favorite color!


A little more challenging but really satisfying is the mandala Retro beaded bracelet tutorial by a Chinese blogger.  Google Translate cannot translate anything but Simplified Han Chinese so you'll have to rely on the pictures.  Picking your own choice of beads and colors is a lot more fun than straight copying.
