Paper Bead Ladder Bracelet

Posted on May 25, 2009 in Paper Bead Creations | 2 comments

I used the ladder stitch to make this paper bead bracelet.  It is very simple and very much paper bead friendly.  Instead of using the elastic I used the silk cord with a needle in the end, it last more and is just fitting for “grown-up” jewelry.

I used clam tips to secure the ends and finished it off with the magnetic closure for convenience.  This is a bracelet is meant to last longer than the elastic counterpart.
