So, I have these tiny beads which are about as big as 4 knots. I want to use them in bracelets, but I've got no idea how. Any suggestions?

You can check out the photos I posted to #16249 and #10994 for inspiration. You can also use a bead as the center of a flower like @ph03be did on pattern #86661.

@prince16 I didn’t find any videos or tutorials on here but I would suggest looking on YouTube for some.

Here is how I add beads because it can be a bit tricky sometimes:
I use a thin flexible thread that came with the beads that I can pull the beads on very easily. I pull the thread through the bead twice so that the thread forms a loop on one side. I pull the strands of embroidery floss that I want to put the beads on through that loop. I pull on both ends of the elastic thread to pull the loop with the strands of embroidery floss through the bead and transfer the beads on the embroidery floss this way.
