Bead mixes comes in various shapes, sizes and color. Here are 3 simple ways you can easily use Bead Mixes.

We are working with the Assorted Long Oval Cane Glass Beads Grab Bag (Z014786), which has an array of colors and a long oval-shaped bead. You can certainly use a different assortment of bead mixes to make design similar to our DIY projects.

Assorted Bracelet Set

We made a set of three bracelets using 9 inches of stretchy cord, 6 beads each bracelet and small 8/0 seed beads. After stretching out the cord, slide a cane glass and seed bead sequence. Make a surgeon’s knot to secure the bracelet. Cut excess leaving a small tail and as an option, you can glue the knot. (optional, add another cane bead and seed bead sequence for a 7.5-8″ wrist size.)

Cane Pendant Necklace with Tassel

You can make a load of necklaces when you turn each cane bead into a pendant. Plus, we paired the pendant with a sweet tassel! To make this necklace, on a headpin, slide on a seed bead, cane bead and another seed bead and make a wrapped or simple loop. Open a jump ring and slide on the cane dangle and chain of your necklace. Close jump ring. Open another jump ring, slide on tassel and chain of your necklace. Close jump ring.
