Welcome:
Hey beautiful! In today’s beaded jewelry tutorial, I will show you how to make a variation on the two-hole herringbone stitch with CzechMates 2-hole Diamond beads, and seed beads. Since a necklace is completed in much the same way as a bracelet, I included instructions for both types of jewelry in one.

✔ ~1g – 11/0 Seed BeadsÂ
✔ 4ft. – 6lb. Fireline, or your choice of beading thread
✔ 2 – Wire Guards (4.5x4mm)
✔ 2 – Jump or Split Rings
✔ Clasp of choice
✔ Scissors
