b.      Step by step guide on creating a lava bead bracelet

I would advise all first timers to perform this task in a comfortable environment, so you can enjoy at the same time and find your true calling in home-crafted jewelry.

a.       Cut a pair of threads of same length, let’s say 40cm each and tie an overhand knot.

b.       Now insert both ends of the thread into a lava bead, facing each other oppositely.

c.       Now you have two faces of threads in opposite directions. Add on your favorite combination of acrylic beads and make the threads pass through another lava bead.

d.       Continue to do so until you have reached a desired length and seal the row of beads with an overhand knot once again. By the looks of it, you’re almost there!

e.       Take another thread of 20cm length and place it with remaining ends to create square knots. Make at least seven square knots or as many as you can manage.

f.        Make the ends of both threads prettier by adding acrylic beads on both ends and tie double overhand knots.

g.       Cut the long threads and burn their ends with lighter to make a seal. You’re ready to sport your first lava bead bracelet!

To make many more bracelets made of lava beads like these, you will have to bring yourself into practice of tying overhand and square knots, if you are not generally good at that task. Once mastered, your bracelet making game will go sky-rocketing.
