Royal Wedding Bracelet Pattern


You can sparkle at the wedding in this beautiful simple to make bracelet. If you don't have any of the Cathedral beads you can also use Swarovski crystals or fire-polished crystals. You will still sparkle when you wave.


A = Miyuki 11° SEED bead, 44*
B = 6 mm Czech Cathedral dome beads (or 6mm crystals of any kind), 4*
C = Czech Rulla beads, 1*

*Bead Counts are per repeat, repeat is approximately 3/4"

Start by waxing and stretching your thread, use Nymo D or C-Lon & a #11 or #12 beading needle. I used Fireline 6lb. crystal.  Tie in a "stopper" bead, leaving about an 12" tail and begin at step #1.
1. Pick up 4A, go with thread forward through the 1st through 3rd A beads just added.
2. Pick up 2A, 1C, 5A, go with thread right to left through the bottom hole of the C bead just added.
3. Pick up 2A, go with thread up through the 3rd A bead added in step #1, and left to right through the 1st A bead added in step #2.
4. Pick up 6A, go with thread forward through the 2nd and 3rd A beads (of the 5A) added in step #2.
5. Pick up 3A, go with thread forward through the 3rd and 4th A beads (of the 5A) added in step #2.
6. Pick up 6A, go with thread right to left 2nd A bead, step #3. Continue with working thread by following the thread path in the illustration, coming out with thread up through the 2nd A bead added in step #14.
7. Pick up 1B, 1A, 1B, 1A, 1B, 1A, 1B, go with thread up through the 2nd A bead added in step #5, and forward through the 1st B bead and the 1st A bead just added in this step.
8. Pick up 3A, go with thread forward through the 1st A bead, the 2nd B bead and the 2nd A bead added in step #7.

9. Pick up 3A, go with thread forward through the 2nd A bead, the 3rd B bead and the 3rd A bead added in step #7.


10. Pick up 3A, go with thread forward through the 3rd A bead and the 4th B bead added in step #7. Continue with working thread by following the thread path in the illustration, coming out with thread up through the 2nd A bead added in step #9.

11.  Pick up 2A, 1C, 5A, go with thread right to left through the bottom hole of the C bead just added.
12. Pick up 2A, go with thread up through the 2nd A bead added in step #9, and left to right through the 1st A bead added in step #11.

13. Pick up 6A, go with thread forward through the 2nd and 3rd A beads (of the 5A) added in step #11.
14. Pick up 3A, go with thread forward through the 3rd and 4th A beads (of the 5A) added in step #11.
15. Pick up 6A, go with thread right to left through the 2nd A bead, step #12. Continue with working thread by following the thread path in the illustration, coming out with thread up through the 2nd A bead added in step #14.

16. Continue by repeating steps #7 through #15 until the necklace is the length that you would like.

17. To add clasp, pick up 3A, clasp, 3A, go with thread up through 1 A bead in bracelet. Continue with thread around through the clasp beads several times for strength. Weave the working thread into the bracelet and end. Repeat the clasp directions in the same manner at the other end of bracelet after removing the stopper bead.
