Waves In The Sea Bracelet
Alternating turquoise and greens in this double-strung bracelet are terrific for spring and summer and are reminiscent of tranquil ocean waves coming up on the beach.
Level: Intermediate Materials4mm sterling silver round beads (8)
4mm lime green glass or crystal bicones (35)
4mm turquoise glass or crystal bicones (35)
Sterling heart lobster clasp
Sterling crimp beads (2)
Split ring
Beading wire
Cut two pieces of beading wire approximately 9" long. Attach lobster clasp to one end of both wires using a single crimp bead. String one sterling round bead on both wires - it should be snug against the crimp bead with both wires coming out evenly.
On one wire, string 5 lime green glass or crystal bicones. On the other wire, string 5 turquoise bicones. Thread both wires through a sterling round bead, and snug up against the bicones. Repeat six times, alternating sets of lime green and turquoise on the wires.
Finish by running both wires through the last round bead, the last crimp bead, the split ring and back through the crimp bead and round bead. Be sure the beads are tight against each other so the double strands are even. Crimp and trim excess wires.
