[@naomijensen9524]

just finished it. so gorgeous!! i'm going to make a few more in different colors. it was a bit tricky to know where to stop and put on clasp for my size wrist, but it came out great.

[@susiespriggs5377]

I love this bracelet. I have made about a dozen, and no two are alike.

[@Potomacbeadco]

That's great!. Glad that you loved it. Happy beading :)

HELPFUL TIPS: I just finished making this bracelet and then had to rip the whole thing apart to start again. Minor tips: Start with about 4 feet of thread on your needles so you don’t have too add any later. Secondly, I feel like the green Wildfire thread is a bit too light in color. Since it's lighter than the surrounding beads, you tend to see it more easily in places where the thread may show a tiny bit. It's not something anyone would notice unless they looked very closely, but I found that Fireline in smoke disappeared into the background between beads much better. Major tip: The sizing of this bracelet is very unforgiving since it's made up of large components. I made it exactly as instructed and it was way too small for my 7" wrist. (I'm sure it fits Allie because her wrist is tiny. ;-) I tried to add additional crystals and seed beads at the end to elongate the clasping area, but this made the piece out of balance and added too much dead space by the toggle bar end. Ultimately I decided to start over. I added an additional set of components to make the bracelet long enough but I had to sacrifice the lovely leaf clasp for a much smaller one. That's okay though, since I want the focus of the bracelet to be the beadwork. I'll save the clasp to us as a focal piece for a necklace. Note that if you have a 7” wrist like me, you will need to order an extra pack of halo beads since you will need 3 more for the extra component. Cheers and happy beading!

[@robinbillington5128]

Hi Lisa - your tips are very helpful, especially as I’m a beginner. Is there any chance you would consider selling the toggle that you couldn’t use? I would have asked this privately, but don’t know how to from here. Please forgive me if this is inappropriate.

[@Rias_ManeEvent]

So cute, will be making this tonight x

[@moniqaf]

This is gorgeous! 🥰

[@barbaragaskins3921]

Thank you so much. Can i ask why you use 2 needles?

[@Potomacbeadco]

It is a technique that some prefer !

[@naomijensen9524]

actually found that you need at least 12 halo beads to complete this project even for a 6" wrist like mine.

[@cprowak]

Good to know, thank you!

[@DANA25ELENA]

wonderfulllllll

[@texasgrandma17]

Hi Allie, I was just wondering how much thread did you use? This is very difficult to follow where to ACTUALLY START NEXT SECTION!! PLEASE make a PDF pattern!!

[@Potomacbeadco]

I just start out with whatever length is comfortable to use, and add new thread if I need to. With two needles, you get twice as much thread as you normally would so that helps. With this covid crisis, we are focused on getting orders sent out and soon, the subscription boxes, so I think the pdfs might have to wait for a while, but we will get to it, especially if this becomes one of the designs for the subscription boxes. Email Anna about that! 😜

[@anastasia122108]

Hi Allie. Please, please, please. The colors you used to make the green bracelet. I need that green bracelet. Thank you. 🙏🏽

[@Potomacbeadco]

Hi Evonne, As always, the details of the items we used are listed in the link below the video, just tap the down arrow for more info.

[@ljoystrasser4207]

I would love to make two of this bracelet for me and my friend. We have bigger wrists then yours. I need to order enough for both of us. Can I get them all in one order and how much do I pay?

[@robinbillington5128]

Thank you for such a great tutorial. May I ask - in your supply list, it says Potomac Crystal Rounds, 3 mm - Montana AB, ~ 2 pieces. Is that count accurate? It seems like there are more shown in the final bracelet. Really wish the silver toggles would come back in. Looking forward to making this bracelet!

[@Potomacbeadco]

We are very sorry for the trouble. You need ~22 pieces of PC rounds 3mm.

[@anastasia122108]

Hi Allie. Can you tell me the color you used for the partially made bracelet. Not the blue. The green one is the one I'm interested in. Thank you.

[@Potomacbeadco]

Aah, misunderstood you before! Her's the list, Evonne: SuperDuo - Turquoise Picasso (75961) Miyuki 15/0 - Duracoat Galvanized Champagne Halo SuperDuo - Rose Gold Potomac Crystal Bicone 3mm - Metallic Green Iris

[@anastasia122108]

Hi again Allie! Got my beads ordered and can wait for my beads to arrive so I can make my green bracelet. Thanks so much!🌹🌹

[@craftygirl2247]

don't seem to have the nebula turquoise green super duos or the Montana crystals on the EU site

[@Potomacbeadco]

potomacbeads.eu/pages/search-results-page?q=Potomac+crystal+montana potomacbeads.eu/pages/search-results-page?q=superduo Choose another colour if that one isn't in stock. Tereza is about to have a baby so there will be some delays for a while. Just be patient, we're all waiting for news! 😜👍🏼

[@Lindajktz]

Seems you don't have PC round 3mm in the EU shop ? I only found 4mm.

[@marialowe9124]

Why do u not just sell the kits it hard to go back and fore or show different colors to chose

[@Potomacbeadco]

Hi Maria, kits are very tome consuming and if we do any, it's usually the ones that get lots of requests. We are a family owned business trying to provide our beaders with thousands of video tutorials, as well as the new subscription boxes plus provide a fast online ordering service. We also do live streams three times a week, so we're a very busy little team! Lists of everything we use in our video tutorials are below the video, just cluck on the Info tab. 20 Goals for 2020 - by PotomacBeads kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5O6d6ljjKt0j6c

[@sylviecote8378]

😍😍😍

[@craftygirl2247]

when will the silver colour leaf toggle be at EU store

[@Potomacbeadco]

Tereza is in hospital. She just had her baby! Give her some time to recover and get into the baby routine, then the store will be back in full swing! 😃

[@annajeangaissert]

Are these directions in writing for purchase?

[@Potomacbeadco]

Not yet, but it will be. The videos are fastest to do and upload, the pdf printables take a lot longer because they're so labour intensive, but we will keep making them because many beaders enjoy them.

[@annajeangaissert]

@@Potomacbeadco A kit would be nice, too. Thank you!

[@anndenovan9026]

Hi Ali, is it possible to have a paper pattern for this bracelet.

[@Potomacbeadco]

Hi Ann, the pdf will come eventually, but they take a lot longer to create than the videos.

[@anndenovan9026]

@@Potomacbeadco Thank you.

[@craftygirl2247]

or the clasp in the silver colour

[@NancyMariLight407]

Is this available in a print out?

[@Potomacbeadco]

Not yet. They take a long time to make and with this covid crisis, we're focussed on getting all our mail out to customers and restocking the warehouse. There will be one eventually.
