Instructions
Step 1
Choose from a variety of materials you need to create your jewelry. To create beaded beads, you will need beads of various sizes, colors and materials. You can start making beads from plastic beads, which are not too expensive but are bright and colorful enough. Subsequently, when the experience in creating beads has already been acquired, you can create products from glass beads, semi-precious stones and handmade beads.
Step 2
Purchase a base thread for decoration. To create beads, you need a thread or fishing line. You can use nylon or lavsan, which are flexible and durable. Needlewomen are used to make beads and metal wire. It holds its shape perfectly and can be used to create a necklace.
Step 3
Prepare supporting materials. In beading, it is important to have a bead tray or board on hand and scissors or pliers to cut the thread. Experienced craftswomen also recommend using a few small jars and a rough napkin for ease of use.
Step 4
Get a bead lock. It can be magnetic locks, screw locks, and locks - carabiners. The choice of locks for beads today is not limited to metal products - you can choose locks made of precious metals, plastic and even wood.
Step 5
Start creating beads. When all the tools are prepared, you can proceed to stringing the beads onto the thread. For this, the thread is folded in half and the first center bead is strung. Next, you can create a pattern of multi-colored beads, which will be strung in the same sequence from both ends of the thread.
Step 6
Attach the clasp to the beads. If the beads will be worn over the head, the threads are tied with a tight knot, their ends are cut off. If the beads imply the presence of a clasp, then one part of it is attached at the end of the left thread, and the other at the end of the right one. The free ends of the thread are cut so that the thread itself is not visible on the finished product.
