A: No. It’s way too flimsy. You might be able to if you starch the strings to make them more firm but if you use them soft and natural they will just flop to the back of the bead instead of making a frame around it. ____________________________________________ Link To My Store: beyondbracelets.storenvy.com ____________________________________________ To make this bracelet you will need 3 strands of hemp- each need to be about 18″ long- you will also need a few seed beads of your choice. The ability to braid and make forward/backward knots is also a required. HINT: After stringing the beads on the middle string make a knot under them. The knot keeps them strung up so they don’t come off as you work with them! I find that the medium sized seed beads work the best- the …

What size is the beads?
@joneagle52 I found when I did it the strings flopped to the back of the bead instead of staying on the sides. If it worked that’s fine, I just know it didn’t work well for me.
I tried this with embroidery thread and it worked perfectly fine
@biancaxx5 Depends on the beads you use I suppose… but I think the regular 6/0 beads would fit it. Leather isn’t all that ‘floppy’ so it would probably work fine.
would 1mm leather cord work for this instead of hemp?
thats so cool
your pretty aysum!
@cherryblossom7242 I covered that in the video description.

is it possible to make it with embroidery floss?
I don’t wanna use hemp. I’m using embroidery floss. I don’t care about warnings. (:
@BeyondBracelets yeaa they should, but the one thats closest to where i live only sells them in “value packs”… which i bought but i just wish they sold them on their own… or in small groups or something cuz the one i bought doesnt have some colours that i like.. ill try a different store tho thanks!
@alicia2oal Any art store should have them.
@xoxosupermac18 Yeah, handmade jewelry makes an awesome gift. Some may say “cheap” but it takes a lot more effort to physically make something rather than just go to a store and say,”THAT ONE!”
Fell in love with it!! Thanks(: Im going to make some for my friends because I’m very bored -.- Ahaha(: Might even give it to them for Christmas(: Just going to get a head start(;

@loverofeverything15 I think I’ll add this question to the description since a ton of people keep asking but…
No. It’s too flimsy. You might be able to if you starch the strings and make them more firm but if you use them (soft and natural) they will just flop to the back of the bead instead of making a frame around it.
