This multi-strand Sequoia Bracelet is simply made using seed beads. You don’t need to be a beading expert when using this PotomacBeads tutorial to help you along the way. It’s easily customized to your own taste and can be worn dressy or casual.

1.Put a stop bead onto the thread. You will be using this stop bead in the project so make sure it matches! Pick up another 8/0 and pass through the stop bead and go back down the current bead and stop bead again. The beads should be sitting beside each other. Using brick stitch add 5 more beads to make a row of 7.

2.Watch the Sequoia Bracelet tutorial to follow along with Anna as she guides you through the steps to designing this beaded bracelet.

3.Once you’ve finished beading the patterned strings in between the brick stitched diamonds, burn off any loose ends throughout the project.

There’s a light and airy feel to the Sequoia bracelet. Making it a great go to piece in the hot summer months. Have fun experimenting with different patterns and sizes of seed beads to change up the look a little and add some personality.
