Crystal Rondelle and Bicone Bead Tennis Bracelet Tutorial

[@lynnnorton7344]

I love that you made a design with beads that most people already have. Don't miss understand, I love the multi hole beads tutorials but it's nice to have a pattern that uses easy to find beads and less expensive beads. Thanks for sharing ☺️

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

I try to keep that in mind, for sure! I like to have a good variety of tutorials - from very simple bead shapes to the more "adventurous" ones! :) Thanks for watching, Lyn!!

I love how you show one colorway at the beginning and the one you work on is a different colorway. I really appreciate that!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thank you, Stella!

I think I can actually do this one lol. I really struggle with bead weaving I get 2 overwhelmed. I think I can do this one though so I'm gonna try. Thanks for the great tutorial

Thanks so much! 💜😁

[@naseeman.460]

Stunning as always! And for me, I really like the thinner bracelets with smaller 'units' (if i can call it this way) because I have very small wrists. Thank you for making these! Big hugs!

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thanks so much, Naseema!!

Thank you for the video!

[@drownmydolly]

Hey there. Beautiful bracelet! I have a question though, how do you tie off and add more bead thread? Im confused because of the two needles on the one thread.

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Hi Jennifer! You can begin a new thread with a needle on each side, then sew into the beadwork a little bit further back. Follow the thread path until you are at the point where your old thread leaves off. I hope that makes sense! :)

[@jenniferteribury5641]

Could you use 8/0 instead of the 3x2's?

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

I think you might be able to! :) Thanks for watching, Jennifer!

[@adpdannie3418]

Will make this-

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Thanks so much!!

[@jacqulynejackson6509]

I can never find needles small enough I go Michael’s and hobby lobby and their Always out very frustrating. Does anyone have solutions for my needle 🪡 problems

[@ORCHIDandOPAL]

Hi Jacqulyne! Use size 10, 11, or 12. Often you can find them branded Pony or BeadSmith. They are linked in the description section too. Hope this helps! :)
