💜Hey everyone! Here is the link to the corresponding blog post: www.orchidandopal.com/blog/easy-flat-spiral-stitch-beaded-bracelet-tutorial-beginner. Since I will be sharing a more complex twist on the popular flat spiral stitch in an upcoming tutorial, I decided to preemptively share a tutorial going over the basic flat spiral stitch. It's a great looking, classic, bead-weaving design, and a pretty easy one to pick up. I especially recommend trying this one if you are new to the world of bead-weaving, and would like to learn. Happy beading! 💜

You are always so sweet and careful to be clear and concise and I should have a project done by now but I’ve been battling health stuff and so I have been unfocused but ...I’m not giving up. You inspired me big with this, it’s very pretty . You’re just precious and sweet and love you’re style in beads and teaching. Thanks sweet lady. I appreciate u🥰🤗🙏🏻

I guess I should probably pull out the flat spiral stitch bracelet I attempted when I first started beading--and maybe finish it ?!? I was able to get about 2 inches into it, gave up, and put it in heap in a box where all unfinished projects go. Thanks, Gina, for sharing this beautiful bracelet with us--and giving me the nudge I needed.
