Flowerpots Bracelet Beadwork Pattern Download

Description

Use two-hole beads to create your own “pots” for miniature beaded flowers, then connect them for a super-cute bracelet. Many different kinds of rice-shaped drop beads can be used to create the flowers in this design; try using Rizo, long drop, fringe drop, or mini dagger beads for a variety of different looks. You can also try using more or fewer colors of the drop beads or combine different bead types into the same bracelet for even more options. This is a wonderful project to expand on your beading skills and create an adorable spring or summer bracelet.
