Indigenous Inspired Beaded Loom Bracelet Materials: • Loom Board & Bands Kit – Indigenous Inspired – 20046 • Pony Beads – Indigenous Colours – 250g Pack – 19137
1. Start by grouping yellow bands with black beads, red bands with yellow beads and black bands with red beads. Alternatively, you can choose your own pattern of coloured bands and beads. You will need about 10-15 beads and 20-30 bands. The amount will depend on the size of your wrist and if you want a loose or fitted bracelet.
2. Thread one coloured band through a different coloured bead. Continue threading the bands until you have 20-30 beads with a band through the centre.
3. Start with a yellow bead. Stretch both sides of the red band out and loop the ends over two prongs on the plastic loom board.
4. Stretch a yellow band over the top of the bead you just placed.
5. Use the hook tool to lift the red band from the bottom and then up and over the yellow band so it sits next to the yellow bead. Repeat this for the other side of the bead.
6. Stretch a yellow band with a black bead onto the loom board so it sits on top of the first bead.
7. Use the plastic hook to lift the bottom yellow band over the top band, as you did in step 5.
8. Stretch a black band onto the loom board so it sits on top of the black bead, then lift the bottom yellow band over the black band on both sides.
