Christmas Poinsettia Bracelet Beading Pattern

Learn how to stitch up a wrist-full of bright beaded SuperDuo poinsettias trimmed with glittering gold "foil" and pearls. Measuring nearly 1" (2.5 cm) wide and finished with a chain extender for a perfect fit, this glorious bracelet is the perfect way to welcome and celebrate the Christmas season. Poinsettias are ubiquitous during the holidays. One of the most vivid Christmas memories I have is the altar of my childhood Church. During December, the altar had just a few tasteful poinsettias strategically placed about. But on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning, every square inch of the altar was "magically" covered with a plethora of brilliant poinsettias that joyfully remained for the next couple of weeks. It was a sight to behold. I am still moved when I recall the image and hear the choir booming "Gloria in Excelsis Deo ." To me, that's what Christmas looked and sounded like - a cacophony of color and sound rising in celebration.
