This post brought to you by JesseJamesBeads.comI’ve been coveting these teal beads from JesseJamesBeads.com for a long time.  This is one of my very most favorite colors.  It makes me think of the ocean.  I feel calm just looking at it.  After all, if we can’t be at the beach, we might as well be beading.
Supply list:

#2 Crimp Tubes

Acrylic flower bead

7″ Bead Strand in your fave color

Clasp

Beading Wire

Crimping pliers

Wire cutters
String those beads.  You know, like we do!  I used the order they came on the strand, but you can shake it up and make your own.  Jesse James Beads has a garden of acrylic flower beads right now.  Pick one (or a few because they are so dang sweet).
Sparkle is something that almost all JJB strands have a touch of and that’s perfectly ok with me.  I support sparkle.
Check the fit.  You could use a ruler for sizing, but who knows where it is!  I blame my husband.
Secure the loop end of the toggle to the beading wire with a crimp bead.
Place the crimp bead in the “U” shape notch first on the crimping pliers and then turn it 90 degrees and place it into the “eye” shape.  Smoosh it down, rolling the crimp over.
Slide all the beads next to the finished end of the bracelet…  P.S.  That’s a pastel drawing of oranges my great great gram did.  It’s one of my most favorite possessions.
and crimp the toggle to the wire.
Perfectly simple.
