Beaded jewellery designs-an adorable necklace with

handmade charms

Instead of buying pre-made charms, why don’t you

make your own handmade charms? There are so

many reasons that you would want to do this. For

example, you can arrange the colors and beads into

beaded jewellery designs that you actually like or

you can even personalize one of your handmade

charms to suit a special occasion. As for myself, I

love the combination of crystalized glass beads and

pearl beads. All supplies used in the project cost just

fewer than 10 dollars to make. But the finished look

say will say anything but “budget”!

Supplies needed for the handmade charms:

6mm Abacus Bead

4mm Bicone Bead

3mm Acrylic Imitation-pearl bead

Crimp bead

Bead tips

Jumpring

Lobster Claw Clasp

Tiger Tail Wire

Chain

Side Cutting Plier

Flat nose plier(not shown in the picture)

Instructions on the beaded jewellery design:

: Cut a long strand of wire and then Step 1

string 8 pieces of 3mm pearl beads and

form a loop by passing the wire back

through the first one.

This new tutorial is all about beaded jewellery designs! You will learn how to turn inexpensive beads into

a special project, such as this handmade charm. Each step is detailed with photos and explanations.

: Take either of the two working ends (left Step 2

end here), and thread 3 bicone beads on it. Here we

did purple, blue and purple. Pass the end through

the bead below towards the left. Tighten the end

and this is one pattern in the 2nd layer.

For the other pattern, you need to thread on the

beads in this order: one purple bicone bead and one

6mm abacus bead. Next, weave the end through the

adjacent purple bicone bead as in pattern 1. At last,

exit the end at next pearl bead.

: Repeat beading the two bead pattern Step 3

alternately until you reach a complete circle.

: Pick up the other working end and Step 4

thread a purple bead and then add on 6 pearl

beads. Weave though the abacus bead to so

that the pearls beads surround it. Next, lead the

wire to the adjoining purple bicone bead and do

same process to the abacus bead.

Keep working until finish all 4 abacus beads.

Exit the two ends of wire between the 3rd and

4th pearl beads of a loop. Then string the

wires through a bead tips and a crimp bead.

Make a knot over the crimp bead. Squeeze

the crimp bead and then close the bead tips.

Remove all leftover wire.
