After several Internet searches, I've also found this video tutorial to be THE BEST! Thanks so much for creating & sharing it. It's very easy to understand, clear & comprehensive as well. I actually purchased a Shamballa kit (here in the USA) & the supplier included instructions, but they were useless! Thanks again, now I can actually make the bracelet finally!
Wow! This is the best tutorial ever! I went into a Beadniks store close to me because I wanted to make a bracelet for my best friends and they were very short and not helpful at all. Then they talked me into buying directions on how to make this bracelet. The directions are awful for a first time user and I got very frustrated. Your video made it so simple and it the best one I've seen on here for first time users like me. Thank you!!
Brillaint Video, best i've seen by far. I've found when doing my knots that if i tie either a small bead or knot in the end of one of the cords i can always figure which side i'm working from
thank you BijouxBM you explained how to make these better than any other video i watched, my bracelet turned out just like the one on the video, but i would just like to point out that you don't nessacerily need different widths of cord, you could use just one width, thank you!x
The two bracelets you are wearing in this video seem to use different size beads, is your other bracelet made with 8mm shamballa beads? Great tutorial, thanks so much
Hi Spyko247, yes that means 1 Shamballa clay pave bead (10mm size) for £1.50. If you are looking for a cheaper option, I would suggest looking at the Shamballa Acrylic beads, which are 2 for £1.00.
@BijouxBM i want to purchase some of the beads but i dont understand how u are selling them for like how much comes in a pack or how much can i get for a certin price ?
very good video. I wish there was a way you could do the knots upside down so that we can see exactly what you are doing with the knot. The top of your hands actually hide some o the cord and we cant see where the end is actually going. Is the final step going over the thin cord before going through the loop or under? Thanks great video!
hi, i recently bought a shamballa bracelet, and it's still too big for me after tightening the knot. is there any way to shorten it further or undo the square knots at the end without ruining the bracelet?
hi tjan... it actually costs a lot less...some of the brands are selling these bracelets upwards of $100. Depending on what kind of beads you choose, you can make them for as a few dollars. Secondly, you can personalise them, choose whatever style you want, or use Skulls, Squares, Ovals or whatever feature beads you want to ensure they look exactly as you want them. :-)
merci bcp et pour le fil de nylon tressé vs le trouver ou?j'ai reussi à trouver des perles sur e bay par contre le fil quelle galere....je veux pas commander en chine car trop long ....merci bcp
off topic: Are you from Ireland or Wales? I hear an accent when you say "millimeter" that reminds me more of an Irish accent... (I love accents so it's hard for me not to be curious) verrrry easy to understand instructions... thanks SOO much! =)
Thank you for answering :) I understand now that some sell it for a higher price but I bought mine cheaper. I didn't think about personalizing them that's a good reason! But to me it isn't necessary. Nonetheless this video is great and very usefull for those who need it xD

Hello just wondering whether you can tell me how long the cord should be if the braclet is for a 6 inch wrist. Many thanks
Hi Lynnie!
You are right, Carolyn's bracelets do feature two different size beads... 10mm and 12mm pave clay. Both sizes are available on our website
Your tutorial is Great! However,what type of beads are the other beads? Im not sure if Im typing in the correct terminology, thanks!
for the Nylon Cords is the thick cord 1.5mm and the thin cord either 1.0mm or .8 mm? which do you use?
Great tutorial.
Great tutorial. What would be an alternative to the slide closure? How would you connect the ends to a simple lobster clasp?
Hi Spyko247, yes that means 1 Shamballa clay pave bead (10mm size) for £1.50. If you are looking for a cheaper option, I would suggest looking at the Shamballa Acrylic beads, which are 2 for £1.00.
