How to Make a Bead Keychain Wristlet

Take the ends of your cord and run your lighter over them to seal the ends. This helps to make beading easier and keeps the cord from fraying. You only need to run the lighter for 1-2 seconds.

String all of your beads onto the cord into a color pattern of your choosing. If you are adding name/letter beads add half your beads, letters, and then the rest of the beads.

Add the keyring to the string, over the beads.

Tie the cord into a double knot, as tight as you can. I do one knot, pull really tight, and then do the second knot, pulling very tight again.

Take your crafting needle and thread one of the strings through it.

Thread the string through one of the beads, carefully. You might need a pair of crafting pliers to help you pull the needle all the way through the bead.

One the string is through the bead remove the needle. Pull the string tightly so the knot ends up inside the bead. This will hide the knot and help to protect it.

Cut the strings as close to the bead as possible.

Run the lighter over the cut ends to seal them. You’ll want the ends to melt and end up inside of the bead.

Your keychain wristlet is all done!

You can use acrylic bubblegum beads instead of silicone. I found that I only needed 14 of those beads to make a wristlet. Follow all the same steps as above!
