Cornelian Star Bracelets – Free John Bead Zoom Class May 24

In this class we demo a fun spin on basic bead stringing to create a bracelet with Cornelian star beads and using 2-Hole Twin beads to make a starburst shape in the stringing. We will finish the bracelets with a charm and demo a fun dangle you can make with craft wire and any beads you may have in your stash. You can use any colors you like to create this bracelet.
