Weaving beads according to different schemes is a fascinating way to distract from worries and reveal your talents. By combining into individual beads, you can create original jewelry that will decorate any outfit and serve as a good gift. Do not be afraid of experiments in needlework. Be sure to try to apply when creating beads, any elements that you seem appropriate and beautiful. Thanks to modern hardware stores and specialized departments of supermarkets, you can always choose the right elements for the embodiment of your handiwork idea.
A usual and a little boring dress-case or a classic suit is immediately revived, if you decorate them with beautiful jewelry made to your liking. In this master class we will tell you how to easily make original beads by your own hands for a short time and without any special material costs.
We will need:
- cut tulle (can be replaced with tulle or lace);
- beads (15-20 pieces).
- We wrap the bead with tulle to measure its diameter. To this indicator, add another 2.5 centimeters. Then cut the strip of tulle with the resulting width and fold it in half.
- The resulting cut of tulle is now stitched along so that we can have a tube. After this, the resulting product with a pin or pencil is turned to the front side.
- We place the first bead in the center of the tubule from tulip. On both sides of the beads it is necessary to tie the knots to fix it. Nodules must be very neat and maximally the same. Exactly the same way we process the remaining beads. Their number depends on how long the finished product you need. After all the beads are fixed, the ends of the tulle must be sewn.
- You can start creating a flower from tulip. To do this, we collect several stripes of tulle together and sew in the center. The edges are left untreated, since this material does not crumble. If you work with lace, you may have to melt the edges with a cigarette lighter. In the center of the flower, sew a few small beads of contrasting colors, which are in harmony with the main beads. We finish our work, sewing the resulting decorative flower to the beads.

In these beads fasteners are not needed, because the ends are simple enough to tie, adjusting the desired length of the product. But if you plan to wear them always with the same length, then for you the actual question is how to make a bead on the beads.
Types of fasteners
Fixing hardware today is sold very much. Depending on the type of material with which you plan to work, you can choose the appropriate model. So, if the ends of the beads are narrow, then you can use reliable screw fasteners. For beads that are woven from several threads, decorative locks and pedals will do. Chains and narrow ends of beads can be successfully fixed with ordinary carabiners, and waxed cords look good with magnetic fasteners.
