I really like this bracelet! The thick chains against the teeny little beads gives a really nice contrast. I originally set out to find a way to braid the beads in the middle, but I didn't have the right tools! I think I'm going to need to get some thin wire to make that happen. :D

I had no idea what I was doing. I originally tried to use nylon quilting thread, and that turned into a big mess. Thread by itself did not produce a big enough knot to keep the beads in place. And this is why I am using two strands of embroidery floss. Gotta work with what you have :D
