This 5-wrap color-blocked stretch bracelet is an invigorating rainbow display, each wrap a different color! Make sure to shop the entire TierraCast Keep the Faith Collection for even more beautiful jewelry accents for your designs.
If adding beads for a larger bracelet, 3 beads is about 1/2", so add beads to each block of color accordingly. (Example: adding 3 beads to each block/wrap - a total of 15 beads - will make an approx. 7 1/4" bracelet.) Cut about 40" of stretch cord, or work directly on spool. Pre-stretch by pulling firmly from both ends a few times.
If using cord cut from the spool, attach a bead stopper about 3" from one end.
String on bail, then add this pattern: 10 purple fire-polish beads and one granulated bead. Repeat pattern once.
Switching to blue beads, string the pattern from the previous step 4 times. Repeat with green, yellow and red beads.
String 10 purple beads, one granulate bead and 10 purple beads.
Secure ends of stretch cord together with a surgeon's knot next to bail, making sure all slack is taken up. Pull cord from all directions to make sure knot is secure. Add a small drop of adhesive or nail polish and allow to dry.
Once dry, thread one tail through bail to other side and pull knot inside. Trim cord ends close to knot.
Open jump ring and attach to bail. Before closing add charm. Close jump ring.
Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
