place both cords between the springs.

- One Crystal Passions® Capri blue 6mm bicone bead
- One 11x6mm 2-strand silver-plated rhinestone spacer

Finish the pattern around the bracelet until all beads have been used or until the bracelet is your desired length.
Bring the cord ends together making sure you have the correct top and bottom cords. Tie a secure surgeon’s knot, pulling firmly to create a snug bracelet fit.
Apply a small dab of E6000® clear adhesive to each knot. Allow the adhesive to dry completely, then trim excess cord.
