Project name: Christmas Tree Cuff

Description:
Use peyote stitch to create your very own Christmas Cuff, complete with decorated trees. A simple concept, with loads of decoration options, your Christmas Cuff will be perfect for wearing during the festive season.
A simple clasp keeps it secure and your ‘tree’ decorations can be themed to match your own aesthetic. Classy or colourful, classic or modern – make it your own!
Supply List:
- For Cuff – Size 11 seedbeads (preferably Myuki) – 10g

- Assorted beads for decoration – seedbeads in size 15 and 11, Demi Round Beads (size 8), 3mm
- crystals or pearls, in assorted colours to contrast the ‘tree’. Silver or gold beads make perfect ‘stars’ for the top of the tree as well.
