Step 1 : prepare your materials
For an easy way of working - organize your tools, empty cup chain bases and crystals that you wish to use.
Step 2 : Threading the beads
Cut 20cm of silicon tread for every kind of natural beads.
Slip the beads on the thread to make a row of 17cm of beads.
The 14mm stone setting for sowing has 2 hols on each side.
Slip the ends of the silicon tread inside the hole of the stone setting.
Tie the ends of the silicon tread and use one metal crimp bead to close the string, press the bead with the plier tool until it holds the thread very tightly.
Tie the end of the second row of beads in the second pier of hols, and close it tightly as done with the first row of beads.
Cut the extra silicon tread for a clean finish.
Step 3 : Setting the stone
Place the stone in the setting, on top of the ends of the silicon tread to make a really smooth and clean look.
Use the prong pusher tool to push the prongs on the stone.
Great work!
This beautiful and very fast to make bracelet is ready!
