Free Pattern: Wire Letter Bracelet (Bang Chan)

Second bracelet. I tried both wire and elastic. Less materials for elastic. I fail at elastic but below are the materials if you want to make them.

(I miss my bicones, they do shine so prettily)

Materials:

4 – 8mm rondelles	I think I bought mine from eBay a long time ago but can try this: https://amzn.to/47zWTGm
20 – 6/0 seed beads (previously mislabeled as 8/0)	Czech beads are ok, no need for Miyuki, etc. I got mine from Beadaholique but can’t find them on Amazon anymore.
11/0 seed beads (qty varies) – to be used underneath the letter cube beads, I like free-moving and spinning letter beads. For qty, I just add one bead over the width of the cube bead so it can move.	For the wired one, I used Czech. For the elastic, since it was double string, I used Miyuki cause they’re uniform in size (bit hard fit but just need a little tugging).
4 – flat disc spacer beads	https://amzn.to/4e7QJzH
4 – heart spacer beads	https://amzn.to/4e7QJzH
letter cube beads (qty varies)	https://amzn.to/3Bkz9tH – These are actually nice, better quality than the circle letter beads I got.
20in. elastic string (FOR ELASTIC VERSION ONLY)	I used what I had leftover but can also use this: https://amzn.to/4eac4Zv. It comes with glue. I tried doing the double string trick so I won’t have to use glue when tying at the end.
*Below are materials for the WIRE version only
2 – wire protectors (FOR WIRE VERSION ONLY)	https://amzn.to/4dcekOz – Not the best quality but a lot of the things I needed were in this one product so it was worth it (same link for the next 4 items below).
10 – jump rings (FOR WIRE VERSION ONLY)	https://amzn.to/4dcekOz – You can also use chain extenders but it was faster to use jump rings than try to find mine.
clasp (FOR WIRE VERSION ONLY)	https://amzn.to/4dcekOz
2 – crimp tubes (FOR WIRE VERSION ONLY)	https://amzn.to/4dcekOz
2 – crimp covers (FOR WIRE VERSION ONLY)	https://amzn.to/4dcekOz
charm pendant (FOR WIRE VERSION ONLY)	https://amzn.to/3MWpWu8 – This is way too much so I hope you have some stashed. I didn’t have anything I liked so I bought some.
10in. – 49-24 beading wire (length varies- depends on your wrist size. I’d say add 3-4 inches extra to your wrist size.) (FOR WIRE VERSION ONLY)	https://amzn.to/3Zt6uN9 – Can use 19 strands (cheaper) but I like the way the 49-24 holds. Will test out other strands and gauge.

I have an SKZ Felix version if you want to check it out.
