Handmade Double Wrap Tila Beaded Bracelets

This week I have been working on these new beaded bracelets made with Miyuki tila beads. The beads themselves are 5mm x 5mm and are flat, so they look like little tiles. The effect they create when beaded together is gorgeous.

These bracelets wrap twice around the wrist and are very light to wear. It takes a little while to make each bracelet as each tila bead has to be woven inbetween a row of cord. They can be made with different coloured beads, different colour cords, and also in single wraps and triple wraps.

For a little added bling and sparkle, the bracelets fasten together with a beautiful Swarovski crystal button. I have become quite addicted to Swarovski crystal elements lately, as they are simply elegant and come in amazing shapes & styles.
