I love arm candy. Clearly, since I share bracelet tutorials all the time. A lot of you know that I also contribute tutorials over at the Consumer Crafts blog, Crafts Unleashed – and today I’m sharing an accessory so easy that if you can add a bead onto a cord, you can make! It’s a perfect beginner’s jewelry tutorial, and a way to bulk up your bracelets for spring (and short-sleeve weather)!

Just choose a color theme, string the beads you love in any pattern you can think of, and enjoy the effect of a high-impact bracelet just by making several simple ones. Come on over to Crafts Unleashed, get the full tutorial and say hello!


This is gorgeous and I am going to try making it. thanks, joyce
Beautiful! I love the beads you used.
