Farfalle and Pearl Wavy Bracelet

To make a bracelet like this you will need
Farfalle beads
Size 8 seed beads
8mm beads, I have used glass pearls but you can use any 8mm bead you like.
Clasp of your choice
A 2mm crimp bead
75cm of 0.3mm tigertail wire
1. With the clasp at the centre of the wire fold the wire in half and add 3 seed beads over both wires.
2. Separate the wires, onto one wire add 7 farfalle beads and on the other wire add one seed bead one 8mm bead and another seed bead.
3. Cross the wires through a farfalle bead and pull the wires up.
4. Add the same beads as step 2 making sure they are on the opposite sides as shown here. Cross the wires through a farfalle bead.
5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 until you have the length you require.
6. Slide 3 seed beads, the second crimp bead and the other part of the clasp over both wires.
7. Put both wires back through the crimp bead and through the first 3 seed beads.
Hold the clasp and pull the wire firmly, if it gets stuck push the seed beads and the little crimp away from the clasp and pull again. Once the wires are pulled firmly and evenly squash the crimp flat with the tip of your pliers. be careful not to catch the end seed bead in the pliers.
Trim of the excess wire.
Thanks for looking!
