Beads are a great source material for creating all kinds of jewelry with your own hands. You can learn how to weave bracelets, rings, earrings, beads, necklaces, and bead necklaces.
Today, there are many different types of jewelry. The most popular type of handmade jewelry is a bead necklace, since it usually does not take a lot of time or effort to make it.
In such an original piece of jewelry you can go anywhere: to the office, for a walk, to a party, to a picnic outside the city, etc. Of course, for each occasion you need to choose bead jewelry in accordance with the outfit and decor. So, for an informal event you can go in a large bright necklace, and for everyday wear at work it is better to choose a handmade bead jewelry of a more modest shape and color.
To weave a necklace of beads, you will need beads of different colors. The product can be monophonic, it all depends on what effect you want to achieve and what to wear with the finished jewelry.
To work on the necklace, you will also need a special fishing line, decorative caps covering the ends of the threads and a fastener for fixing the finished product to the neck. All this can be purchased at a store selling handicrafts. This is not a problem today.
The length of the fishing line for the necklace is taken 20 cm longer than the planned length of the necklace. For example, if you are planning a necklace length of 50 cm, then take pieces of fishing line of 70 cm for its manufacture. The number of threads depends on what the necklace of beads will be. Patterns and type of weaving play an important role in the manufacture of the product.
The simplest thing is to take four groups of threads with three fishing lines in each and string on each piece of beads of the corresponding color. At the ends of the fishing line it is necessary to tie knots in order to avoid scattering of beads. A little loose fishing line at the ends is necessary to secure the fittings.
From one end, all the finished yarns are collected and bundled, then they are disassembled into groups and weave, changing its direction in accordance with the scheme. The result is an original pigtail, securing the ends of which with accessories and attaching a clasp, we get an exclusive necklace made of beads, made by hand. If desired, neck jewelry can be made of beads of the same color.
A twisted bead necklace looks very attractive on the neck. From the thickness of the decoration depends on how it will look in the finished form.
A necklace of two dozen threads will be a great addition to your holiday outfit. And one and a half dozen strands of beads of the corresponding color will add romance to your image. Plain ornaments look especially gentle. The finished product is made out with appropriate accessories.
Beaded necklaces are very effective and quite simple in the technique of manufacturing. Harnesses from beads can be used as a stand-alone necklace, and can be used for fastening and wearing a pendant, which can also be made with your own hands.
