This bracelet has a classic ROYGBIV* rainbow of Czech glass star beads, perfect for Chakra jewelry, Pride jewelry, or a reminder that after the rain, comes the rainbow.Created by: Michelle HorningDesigner TipsFor step by step knotting instructions, see our blog article: DIY Shamballa-Style Macrame Bracelet TutorialAll beads can be strung onto the bottom of the anchor cords before anchoring to the board, and slid into place as you knot.Tight knots make it difficult to sew the tails back in, and you can break your needle. Pliers can help to get the needle through. Sew the tail back through the entire section of knots to ensure that it doesn't back out.The length of cord to cut for the clasp says 12" in the tutorial, but this leaves little to work with at the end, so I increased it to 18".The sliding clasp can be made longer as desired to fill any gaps left when pulled snug.The entire bracelet is adjustable. The knots can be scrunched together or pulled apart on the anchor cords in order to adjust length.I separated the cord at the ends with a needle to form a little tassel.* What's ROYGBIV? It's simply the first letter of each color of a 7-color rainbow (in order): Red-Orange-Yellow-Green-Blue-Indigo-Violet.Suggested Supplies1 25-gram bag (use 1 bead) #23-980-252 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Siam1 25-gram bag (use 1 bead) #23-980-192 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Hyacinth1 25-gram bag (use 1 bead) #23-980-322 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Translucent Yellow1 25-gram bag (use 1 bead) #23-980-372 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Light Emerald1 25-gram bag (use 1 bead) #23-980-502 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Aquamarine1 25-gram bag (use 1 bead) #23-980-452 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Sapphire1 25-gram bag (use 1 bead) #23-980-282 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Amethyst1 25-gram bag (use 2 beads) #23-980-021 Czech Glass Cornelian Star Bead, Size 32/0 - Jet1 pack (use 114 inches) #61-214-20 Hemp Cord, 20lb-test (Approx 1mm) - We used Blue from the Earthy Pastel mix, but you might prefer one of the brighter color mixes (click into the Related Products tab of the hemp cord for more color options).ToolsTweezers and Chain-Nose Pliers from #69-291 Zebra Tool Set Other SuppliesClipboardBinder ClipsSturdy NeedleRuler or measuring tape
