Start by attaching your cords.

Feed the ends through one buckle end and make sure that both ends of the cords are equal in length.

Feed the ends through the top of the other buckle end.

On the bottom (underside) of the bracelet tuck the ends into the snake knots. I recommend under at least 4 knots.

This will bulk up the bracelet. To reduce the bulk you may want to remove the inner strands out of the ends before tucking them in.

Once the ends are tucked, the bracelet is done!

Enjoy your bracelet!
