Hi folks, hope everyone is having good holidays! Attached are photos of the January project, plus the supply list. Stay warm!

General Information:

This bracelet uses ladder and brick stitch to complete the two pyramid-shaped ends which are then connected by stringing 8 rows of beads. You can complete a coordinated bracelet by matching the connecting beads by color and/or shape; or you can use your stash of bead soup. Just remember that you will want to pass the thread through two times for strength.

I would recommend a pretty button or bead for the clasp but you may also buy or bead your own clasp.

Materials required:

(A) 60 4mm cube beads

(B) about 400 beads of various sizes - USE YOUR IMAGINATION - some suggestions include;

* 1) bead soup
* 2) size 15 - size 8 beads of coordinating colors, may be round, hex or triangle
* 3) gemstone chips or bugles to add more variety.

(C) size 10 or 12 beading needle

(D) Fireline 6 lb beading thread or alternate of your choice.

(E) Button or clasp of your choice.

(F) Ruler, mat, scissor
