Make a beautiful beaded bracelet using Japanese glass beads! These beautiful seed beads are uniquely shaped like a tiny peanut and give the appearance of a raspberry or blackberry when stacked together in our simple bracelet design.
This is a great beginner-friendly project and teaches you the basic fundamentals of bead stringing using 2 needles with heavy-duty nylon beading thread. Why do we use 2 needles? We find that it helps prevent counting errors while string the beads for each section. It also makes tying knots a lot easier! As with all of our projects, good manual dexterity, patience and attention to detail will help you through this project.

A note on colors: we took these photos in outdoor settings. We do minimal photo editing and do our best to show you the true colors of the beads. Colors will vary depending on what type of screen the items are being viewed on (smartphone, tablet, desktop computer monitor). Colors will also vary in appearance when wearing the finished jewelry in artificial lighting and outdoors in natural lighting.
Beads are small! Wondering how to judge the size of materials provided in our kits? Check out our Sizing page. Beads and supplies in this kit range in size from 2mm to 6mm.
