Pretty Valentine’s Bracelets | Jewelry Tutorial | Curated Bead Box

Hi everyone! Happy Valentine's to you! Here's a tutorial for three pretty beaded bracelets! I'll be using beads from the Curated Bead Box for the month of February 2023. The name of the box is "Love Is". This tutorial will show you how to arrange bead patterns, crimp off your beading wire, attach clamshell covers, and attach an extender chain with a heart charm. If you don't subscribe to the Curated Bead Box, you can still make this project using beads from your own stash. Please check the list of materials down below.

The Curated Bead Box is a monthly subscription box that includes glass beads, gemstones, and charms or pendants, with unique color combinations and themes. The box is $20 a month including shipping. You can also buy previous boxes or a one-time box on CuratedBeadBox.com, if you don't want a monthly subscription. Here is a direct link to their bead box subscription: https://www.curatedbeadbox.com/produc.... If you sign up for a monthly subscription, please use coupon code LUISA35 for a 35% discount on your first box.
