Wow! I love this bracelet! Very beautiful and simple, not over done, or gaudy as some homemade beading patterns can be. The tutorial is also very well done.

[@j.whiteoak6408]

@@GinasGemCreations I always love your nails! But these are particularly pretty .. for a particularly pretty bracelet! I tried designing something just like this a couple of years ago, but I thought it was a fail because each 'set' was 'cupping' instead of laying flat .. but you've made a feature of it and so I couldn't wait to pull out my 'failed' project and just finish it!!! It's in gold-coated seed beads with the 15/O's in dark green, and gorgeous 'celadon' 4mm Presciosa Crystals. So pretty! Thank you, Gina!!

[@gizi3001]

If you want like this nail color , there are many colors and it's named " magnetic nail polish" you will find too many kind look in aliexpress, am from morroco

[@ellieventrulli264]

Ohhh that's pretty!! Prefect design for that lovely crystal!!

[@GinasGemCreations]

ellie ventrulli yes, it works nicely.

[@realong2506]

I used all 8/0 seed beads in this design and used 4mm fire polish since they where all I had on hand. I used 11/0 seed beads in place of the 15/0 and then added 2 mm and 15/0 down the side of the bracelet attaching them through the 8/0 stickyouty beads along on the outside edge. It turned out great! I working on another where I want to make it double the width so it will be a two strand bracelet. I'll let you know how it urns out.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Fabulous! Many times modifications are good. I designed a partial piece with 11/0s between the the 8/0 sticky-outies and then connected multiple chains and a magnetic clasp, turned out great. This design is easy to modify. I am glad you were able to use what you had on hand.

[@fredaskaggs3611]

I love this! Gina, where would be a good place to get good quality chain on a budget. I want something that doesn't turn if possible.

[@GinasGemCreations]

Try Michaels or Hobby Lobby. They have packages of long chain for very reasonable prices, most do not turn, if they have the coating to protect them. But I buy silver cleaner in the jewelry department in Walmart. It’s a red little jar. I just dip the chain in, rinse and dry, works great.

[@rosaelinav8036]

Fabulous I just love its❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@GinasGemCreations]

Rosaelina V I am happy to hear it💜

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

This is really pretty. I totally follow how you're making each segment/unit thanks to your terrific tutorial. I'm just wondering though, is there any reason you would recommend against stitching the full length of the 3 wide 11/0 bead square stitch, then add the 8/0's on both sides and finally go back and add in the 15/0's and the crystals (or fire polish beads)? To me, it seems like I'd make more progress more quickly 'cuz I'd get into a rhythm for each step and sail through them faster. Thoughts?

[@GinasGemCreations]

I feel like if you do that it might not lay right, each segment needs the previous segment finished to hold the shape of the tiny bezels. But, I could be wrong.the only way to know is to try it😁
