This project features a fun twist on simple stringing techniques, as well as eye-catching Raven's Journey Czech glass flowers.
Cut two lengths of jewelry wire approximately 11 inches long each. Put a bead stopper on one end.
Add a hibiscus flower bead to both wires. Then on one wire, add a honeydew bead and an elderberry bead. On the other wire, add an elderberry bead and a honeydew bead. Repeat this bead pattern 5 times and then finish the strand with a hibiscus bead.
Add a crimp tube to the end of both wires. Add a jump ring to one wire and bring that wire back through the crimp tube. Crimp in place and be sure to trim the second wire sticking up out of the crimp tube. Add a crimp cover to the crimp tube. Repeat this step on the other side of the bracelet.

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!
