Instructions
Step 1
Stylish and fashionable jewelry can be easily made from beads made using various technologies with your own hands. For example, it is easy to make real beads from felted beads or use them as a pendant. And there are different ways to make good thick woolen beads.
Step 2
Roll a small lock of wool in your hand. After slightly moistening it with soap and water, start rolling gently between your palms. Continue this action until the bead is firm. Then rinse it in warm running water and pat dry on a towel. If you string it on a thick cord, prepare a hole for it right away. While the bead is damp, pierce it with a knitting needle or similar.
Step 3
In order to make a stylish bead jewelry with your own hands, you will need a cord. You can take any suitable cord for this, or you can make it yourself. Wool cord is ideal for woolen beads. To do it, tearing off small strands, stack them so that they go a little behind each other. Spread the cord thirty centimeters longer than you need on the bubble wrap. In the middle, place a thread of knitting wool that matches the color. After moistening the workpiece with soap and water, start rolling gently in the transverse direction, and then in the longitudinal direction. Keep doing this until the cord is tight, wash and dry.
Step 4
Pass the cord through the hole in the beads. If necessary, add the appropriate accessories: decorative beads, fastener for the product.
Before you start making jewelry from beads with your own hands, think over the color, size. If you are new to wool felting, don't buy a lot of materials at once. It is enough to purchase 50 grams of wool to conduct a trial lesson for yourself.
