Ornaments with Seed Beads
There can never be enough patterns for fun Christmas decorations. Preciosa Ornela presents a simple tutorial for the simple creation of an additional decoration for blown Christmas baubles. They can be dressed in a fine seed bead net. Try the classic bead working sewing technique improved by the use of the multifunctional Preciosa Twin™ two-hole seed bead. We wish you happy Christmas bead working.
The following description can be used to create a net, into which a blown bauble is placed and then enclosed. Create two identical parts of the net and join them together.
Instructions
Step 1
String 10x T with 3x R between each one. Tie both ends of the line and create a circle (figure no. 1).
Step 2
Pass the line through the second hole of the last T. Then string 2x R, 1x T and 2x R and continue in the same way to the end of the row and pass the line through the first two added R and one T once again according to the illustration and start the stringing of the next row (figure no. 2). Add a total of 40x R and 10x T in this row.
Step 3
Add one more R in each following row, but otherwise proceed in the same way as in the second row. Add 10x R between each of the individual T in the ninth row.
Step 4
Create two nets according to this tutorial. Place them onto a glass Christmas bauble from the adjacent sides and join both halves in the same way as in the ninth row.
