• Selection: Start by choosing the beads. First, I advise you to select the colour of the rectangular beads. These are the largest beads in the assembly and therefore the most visible. It will be easier to start the selection with them.
• Colour Palette: Choose a harmony of shades that evokes memories or emotions, or go for the elegant simplicity of a monochrome. You can start with a single shade and find harmonies or play with strong contrasts. Here's an example of a subtle play on pink quartz, fluorite and tourmaline - pink and green go very well together. The design is soft and poetic, reminiscent of floral hues. No one colour takes precedence over the other. 
• Shapes and Textures: Explore diversity! Combine faceted and smooth beads, and play with different sizes to give your creation depth. Here we've incorporated gold beads to give relief and Zirconium Oxide beads to brighten up the bracelet.

• Visualisation: Before you start, lay your beads flat. Visualise the future bracelet, adjust the size and adapt your assembly. Don't forget to measure your wrist first.

• Tip: Place the beads on the edge of a ruler to make it easier to position them and see how they fit on your wrist.

• Once you're satisfied, carefully thread each bead onto the elastic thread. To prevent the thread from slipping and unravelling during assembly, you can tie a knot at the ends.

• The Final Touch: Finish your stringing with a metal bead. Not only does it add a touch of sparkle, it also cleverly hides your knots. Once you've made the knot and cut the thread, slip it discreetly inside this bead for a flawless finish.

I hope this tutorial has helped you and that you find the inspiration to create a piece of jewellery that is uniquely yours.
