How should I begin making my own bead jewelry?

27 Jun, 2010 making bead jewelry

Try this:
Start this project by stringing a large amount of beads onto the wire while still keeping the wire attached to it’s spool
Bend the wire around a bead then twist the bead into the wire chain nose pliers to form about a 1/2" long twist for each bead.
Continue with this process until all of the beads are used. Don’t worry about having what seems like a lot of beads, it will fill in the wreath. Once all the beads are strung, snip the wire a few inches from the last bead. You will use this extra wire to secure the beginning and end of the bead "chain" to the wreath form.
I wrapped the bead chain and the individual bead twists to the wreath form all the way around and secured the jump ring with the untwisted end of the wire. Make sure that your beads are arranged so as not to leave blank spaces.
Tie a ribbon to the jump ring loop at the top to finish.
