I'm looking for cute ways to add beads, specifically small ones, into my bracelets to spice them up a bit but I don't want my bracelets to look messy. Does anyone have ideas or pictures of beads in their bracelets? Thanks!

I have photos on pattern #16249 and #10994 where I used beads. I just pulled the beads on the two middle strings and knotted with the rest of the strings around the bead until the gap was big enough for the bead.I've also seen beads icorporated as the center of flowers like in the daisy chain or sunflower chain for example pattern #86661 where there are also some photos and an interesting video tutorial by @fen_lenin |

#59751 #44672 #18309 #11506 #102347 #98002 #611 #3982 #56564 I have photos on those patterns that use beads in some format. Usually I put beads in the ties or in place of a knot in certain patterns

Yep! To add a bead, where ever you want it, do half of the knot, and then slip the bead onto the string, tie the other half.

I have been wondering the same thing. I have plenty of seed beads, but I don't know how to add them to like a chevron or something. Any ideas?

I added some seed beads where I set up my bracelet triangle ends and again when I ended it, you can see in my photo of pattern #26499. The green beads blend in with the green string so they're a bit hard to notice. I used super tiny beads so it was a pain to thread each one but maybe with a slightly bigger bead it will be easier to incorporate all throughout the pattern. Another idea I thought would be cool is bordering them around the entire edge of the bracelet.
