Metal Beads
how do you string beads on professional looking braclets?
im making my mom a bracelet and i got all the nice glass and metal beads and the right sting. but how do i string them so that i dont have to tie them??
well, you don't use string. You use beadalon 19 strand soft wire 
then you MUST buy crimp beads and clasps and pliers and needle nose pliers and wire cutters.
Here is what you do:
cut a piece of cord long enough (with extra left for clasp and crimp beads)
stick one end of wire through the jump ring attached to the clasp and pull it around it to make a loop. attach a crimp bead around BOTH pieces and crimp it with your flat pliers
bead the bracelet into a nice pattern
do the same thing to the other side 
it may be confusing, but I'm not the best at directions try google or about.com,
