Dayyyyyyy FIVE of Spring Beadalon Break!
I have been helping with set up of the Jesse James Beads booth at Bead Fest Spring since 9AM today. Where does the time go?? I will be teaching 10 classes at this Bead Fest.
No pressure.
(yeah right!)
It’s pouring right now–a good day for ducks, as my dad says!
And to test drive the new Beadalon Bracelet Jig!
I’m doing this post in two parts. For the first part, you’ll need the Beadalon Bracelet Jig, basic plier set plus some bead strands.
String the beads onto 18g. Artistic Wire. 
Next, wrap your wire around the first peg on the jig, slide the bead(s) into place, put a peg in next to them and wrap the wire around it.
Keep going, adding a peg and wrapping after each flower for a total of 3 (but you could use more!).
Stay tuned to see how I use my Bracelet Jig focal piece.
In the meantime check out some of the bracelets below made by Meredith Roddy and Wyatt White at Beadalon!
