How To Make Beaded Name Bracelets
A custom name bracelet makes a great gift. You can easily incorporate different colors, small beads, large beads, and even wooden beads to create these name-bead bracelets. Learn how to make a name bracelet in this amazing tutorial!
Tools
- Bead needle
- Measuring tape or ruler
- Scissors
Instructions
- Cut a piece of elastic cord about 9” in length, tie a loose single knot on one end of the bracelet, and attach the other end to the beading needle.
- Look at the size chart and lay your beads on the table next to the ruler in the order you want them to lay. This way if you have a name you’d like in the center, you know it will be even on both sides.
- Use your bead needle to easily pick up the beads and slide them onto the open end of the string.
- Once all beads are on the cord in the correct order, take the two ends of the cord, tie an elastic cord knot (see photo 6) close to the beads, and pull tight.
- Follow the directions of the e6000 glue, dab the knot into the glue, and let dry. This step will prevent the beads from falling off of the stretch bracelets.
