    Right here goes... I've used bright pink beading wire so you can see what I'm doing better.

    The last two pics show one strand done with the thread guardian and one done with bare wire. Please excuse the shocking crimping...I need better crimping pliers!!

    Michelle - you might want to practice on something you've already got first - there's nothing worse than trying to learn a new technique on someone else's stuff!

    This type of stringing really isn't hard, one you get a feel for the tension, you'll be flying.

    Thanks George - I think I will practice first, last thing I want to do is destroy the bracelet!
