You can sparkle at the wedding in this beautiful simple to make bracelet. If you don’t have any of the Cathedral beads you can also use Swarovski crystals or fire-polished crystals. You will still sparkle when you wave.

Start by waxing and stretching your thread. Use Fireline*, Nymo D or C-Lon and
an #11 or #12 beading needle. Tie in a “stopper” bead, leaving about a 8-10”
tail and begin at step #1. I like using Fireline® fishing line, too. The 4lb
and 6lb Crystal for bead weaving works best.

Round 4 a) Pick up 6 seed beads, 1 crystal, go with thread around the thread in R3, between the 3rd and 4th seed beads, R3b. Continue with thread up through the crystal just added. b) Pick up 6 seed beads, go forward with thread through the 3rd seed bead, R3a. Continue with thread up through the 6th seed bead just added in this step. c) Continue R4, by repeating steps b and c, 4 more times. d) Pick up 5 seed beads, 1 crystal, go with thread around the thread in R3, between the 3rd and 4th seed beads, R3b. Continue with thread up through the crystal.Pick up 5 seed beads, go with thread down through the 1st seed bead added in (a), this R, the 3rd seed bead, R3a and up and forward through the 6 seed beads added in (a), this R.

Weave the working thread into the snowflake and end.

Making Hangers for your Snowflake

1. Make it with beads, make a loop with as many beads as you would
like,

2. or use a piece of fishing line, making it invisible with
mono-filament,

3. or a piece of pretty ribbon. Add ribbon after your snowflake is
stiffened.

Finishing

After the snowflake is complete, you can stiffen it with SC Johnson Floor Finish.

It is a great stiffener, it stays clear even on the crystals. Test it first if you use seed beads with dyed colors to make sure the floor finish doesn’t remove the colors.

Pour enough of the finish into a small container that is wide enough for the ornament.

Float the ornament into the Future and push it around a bit with your finger. (After I am done with the floor finish, I use a funnel and pour the extra back into the bottle)

Take the ornament out and blot both sides with a paper towel.

Put the ornament on a piece of wax paper, shape and flatten it and let it remain on the wax paper to dry. (If you use plastic-wrap, the beads can stick a bit to the wrap, so it needs to be moved around a bit to prevent this from happening.) If your ornament needs a little extra flattening, use two pieces of wax paper and sandwich your ornament in between; put a book on top of the wax paper for about an hour.

Take the book and the top piece of wax paper off the ornament and let dry overnight on the bottom piece of wax paper.
