DIY Bow making with beads

How cute is this little bow! Super cute as a charm on a necklace, earrings or make it into a keychain. With a few simple steps you can make this great bow yourself.

Used materials

Steel beading wire 0.45mm
Beads 3mm
Stainless steel spacer beads 4x3mm
Stainless steel Crimp beads golden 2mm
Stainless Steel Crimp Beads Covers Golden 3x4mm

How to make

You start by cutting a piece of steel beading wire, about 20 cm. Then you pinch the crimp bead on it, and then put a crimp bead cover over it. Then you start threading the first 5 beads + the gold spacer bead. Then another 13 beads, then you go through the spacer bead again with the steel wire so you make a loop. Then thread another 13 beads and go through the spacer bead again to make a loop, and for the last piece thread 8 beads. Then you pinch a crimp bead on the wire against the last bead, and hide it again with a pinch bead cover. Finally, cut the remaining steel beading wire and you're done!

Tips:

- Use a beading board or mat to place your beads on while you work so they don't roll away.
