In today’s beading tutorial I will show you how to make a bracelet with the Russian Spiral stitch. Four beaded stripes, composed of Miyuki 8/0 Seed Beads with Picasso finish, shiny copper-coated Pyrite, and Celadon Moonstone, alternate with stripes of contrasting 11/0 seed beads, and bring the Canyon Falls palette to life. The bracelet is finished with antique copper colored bead caps, and a TierraCast toggle clasp.

The materials in this bracelet are also featured in the Gina’s Picks x Eureka Crystal Beads video for September 2021.
While there are some similarities to an official Eureka Crystal Beads Collection, think of this monthly picks concept as a mini collection, of sorts, in which I select some of my favorite products to highlight for the month, from ECB, which are curated around a monthly theme. These monthly picks will happen on the months where a ECB collection is not being released, and will bridge the gap between those highly anticipated events.Â
This month’s theme is called Canyon Falls, which features hues of earthy metallics and pops of turquoise. Three follow-up tutorials will be coming, based on the products you’ll see in the video.
