Step 1
Choose pony bead colors and determine the pattern of your bracelet. 
Step 2
Cut a piece of cord about 3" longer than the circumference of your wrist. 
Step 3
String the beads onto the cord. Check the size as you go along by wrapping it around your wrist. Remember that the cord is elastic and will stretch. 
Step 4
When you are happy with the length, tie a double knot in the end. Pull tightly and make sure the knot is secure. Cut the excess cord off, leaving about ¼" from the knot. Tuck the excess cord into the beads.
