Instructions

Step 1

Gather your Supplies

You are going to need easy access to your seed beads so it’s easiest to tip them into magic sorting trays. For this project you will need three.

Now prepare your needle and thread. Make sure to measure your thread to the length of your wrist, and then triple the measurement. It’s always best to have too much rather than too little.

Place your thread through your needle, and you are ready to begin.

Step 2

Starting your bracelet

For this DIY you’ll need three colours. We are using orange, green and purple. You can swap them for different colours but don’t mix up which is assigned to which colour.

Step 3  

Creating our Pumpkin

To start we will pick up three Purple beads and thread them onto our bracelet. Then we will thread five Orange beads onto our bracelet.

To create our fits loop we will need to thread the needle through the first Orange bead and pull the thread. There should be two beads resting on top, and three along the bottom. Now we need to thread three more Orange beads onto our bracelet, then thread through the third bead on the bottom row to create a full circle of beads.

Follow the circle round anticlockwise and thread through the next bead to the left. Thread one Green bead onto the bracelet and then thread your needle through the next Orange bead along. Do this anticlockwise six times.

Step 4

Repeat

Create as many pumpkins as needed for your bracelet to fit you with three Purple beads in between each.

Step 5

Finishing touches

Once the bracelet is the desired length, create a loop knot on each end, attach a Jump Ring to one end then a Bolt Ring Clasp to the other.

Congratulations you have completed the project! 

You’ve now handmade your very own bracelet. Go out and wear your new autumn pumpkin creation in style.
