I love to be the one glowing in the dark at nighttime summer events, under black lights at an amusement park, or summer concert. The Linhasita cord glows under black lights only, but the seed beads I added will glow in the dark. You will have enough components to make several bracelets. This design is great for any age. This could be an anklet too:)

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Linhasita Metallic White Black Light
  • 8/0 glow in the dark seed beads in the two colors listed in the product list

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Cut six 15" pieces of cord. Cut the Linhasita cord ends at an angle so they fit through the bead holes. Slide 12 seed beads on each cord, you can add more if you prefer. Alternate colors per cord. I did an overhand knot on each side of the seed beads, but you could leave them loose.

Step

Step 2

Cross the cords over each other. Cut a 15" piece of cord and tie it onto the bracelet.

Step 3

Start creating a sliding square knot. Embellish the cord ends with seed beads and knot. Use the lighter to burn your knot ends to make sure they don't unravel.

See Tip: Tying the Sliding Square Knot

Step

Step 4

Create several square knots and knot the cord and trim. Use a lighter to burn the knot for security.
