Starfish on the Beach Bracelet Kit
​
​Kit Contains:
-15 10mm Amazonite beads
-15" of Elastoma
-2 wood beads
-Large seaglass starfish
​
​Kit price:$15.95

​Optional:
-Glue (E6000 or Hypo-Cement)
-measuring tape
​-bead design board
​-bead reamer or awl
​-bead clamps
​

Step 1

Lay out the beads in the order you would  like. Place starfish in center with the two wood beads on either side (helps to keep starfish stabilized on wrist). You will have 7 beads on one side & 8 on the other. Remove the extra if you have a smaller wrist.

Step 2

Measure your wrist...determine if you will need all the beads. Stretch your Elastoma 2-3 times before threading, this helps to keep it from sagging with wear. Thread the Elastoma (stretchy thread) through all the beads, (no need for a needle) in the order that you laid them out.

Step Three

Place bracelet around wrist to double check your length & make sure it fits. Utilize a surgeon's knot to tie off bracelet. Use a drop of e6000 or hypo-cement on the knot when completed. Let dry overnight without moving or wearing.
Cut the excess elastic thread off. 
If the bead hole is large enough, push it inside bead #8 while glue is wet, & allow to dry.
