Vintage seed bead mixture of pinks, silvers and magenta hues meticulously braided with 8 strands of cording finished with a freshwater pearl and crystal drop and sterling silver heart & soul charm. Measures about 7-1/2" with a toggle clasp.

Waiting for a turn in the internet cafe......this braided hair caught my eyes. Location - Internet Cafe @ Lucky Plaza, Singapore.

I was curious to see how a 7mm satin ribbon would turn out when braided on a lucet. Verdict: I like it.
The above is on an A5 booklet for scale, and is about 1m in length. Completed in about half an hour.
There was a "grand-opening" hafla at MyPlace. I decided to wear my tribal fall with all the rasta braids, yarn and shells.

The Process of Creation.
Before you start make sure the length of the thread is about 4times the length of the finished piece.. However if you are doubling up the strings, make sure it's 8 times the length
Depending on how you are braiding, if you are braiding/knoting close and tight 4 times the length, if you are going to have lots of space in between then you can use less cord.
