The refraction of sunlight through the cracks of the beads dances across the tabletop - that's the magic of DIY beading.
With the Sun Catcher, Acrylic Five-Petal Flower Beads, and Bling Pearls, we'll show you how to make sparkling jewelry. I. Sun Catcher Bracelet
Materials: 1 fine silver chain, 5 small rings, Acrylic Five-Petal Flower Beads (3 each of light pink/goose-yellow), Bling Pearl (6 pieces), headpin (9 pieces), 1 pair of sharp-nosed pliers, 1 pair of clasps. Steps:
Open the small rings with sharp-nosed pliers, and fix them on the silver chain in 3cm intervals (do not close the rings first);
Take the headpin and put it through the bottom of the bead, with 0.5cm of the head of the needle exposed, and bend the head of the needle into a closed ring with sharp-nosed pliers (to avoid the beads from falling off); Open the small rings on the silver chain, put in the small rings of the flower beads and then close them, alternating light pink and goose yellow;
Repeat step 2 to make the pearl pendant, and clip it onto the rings between the flower beads;
Install the clasps on both ends of the silver chain, and check the firmness by pulling the chain gently after finishing. When the sun shines, the translucency of the acrylic flower beads will amplify the refraction of light, and more attention is paid to the details of the fixation than the original version to avoid the beads shaking and falling off when wearing. Bling Pearl Bracelet
Materials: 1 wide stretch wire (1mm), Bling Pearl (10pcs), silver spacer beads (5pcs), Acrylic Five-Petal Flower Beads (5pcs in Cream White), 1 pair of scissors. Steps:
Fold the elastic thread and tie a double knot (leaving 5cm of thread at the end), thread in 3 pearls + 1 spacer bead;
thread in 1 flower bead, then repeat “3 Pearls + 1 Spacer Bead + 1 Flower Bead” until it wraps around your wrist (1cm shorter than the actual length of your wrist). (1cm shorter than the actual length of the wrist, the elastic thread will stretch);
Cross knot both ends of the thread 3 times, cut off the excess thread and pull the knot into the nearest bead hole to hide it. The correction reduces the number of spacer beads, avoids the bracelet from slipping too loosely, and the elastic cord is more wear-resistant when folded, suitable for frequent daily wear. Girls' Heart Mobile Phone Necklace: Flower and Pearl Rendezvous
Materials: 1 roll of transparent fishing line (0.5mm), 5 pink flower beads, 10 Bling Pearls, 4 light purple/light blue candy beads each, 1 Sun Catcher clasp, 2 locator beads. Steps:
Thread the fishing line into the clasp and fold it back, fix it with the locator beads (clamp the locator beads to prevent it from coming off);
String the beads in the order of “1 Flower Bead + 2 Pearls + 2 Candy Beads”, add 1 locator bead every 5cm (to enhance the load-bearing); The total length is limited to 20cm (including the clasp), the end is fixed with a double knot, and the thread is wrapped around the locator beads and cut flat. Increase the positioning beads to solve the problem of the original version of the fishing line is easy to break, double fixed at the hanging buckle, even if the phone is frequently shaken is not easy to fall off. Starlight between the collarbones: Sun Catcher Necklace
Materials: 1 fine silver chain, 1 largest transparent glitter flower bead, Bling Pearl (2), 4 small glitter beads, 1 extension chain, headpin (3). Steps:
Use the headpin as the main pendant of the flower beads and fix it in the middle of the silver chain (right above the collarbone);
Fix the pearl pendant in the same way at 10cm on each side;
One end of the extension chain is connected to the end of the silver chain, and the other end is strung with 3 small glitter beads and then closed. One end of the extension chain is attached to the end of the silver chain, and the other end is closed with 3 small sparkling beads to make it easier to adjust the length. The corrected position of the main pendant fits better to the collarbone, the extension chain is designed to fit different neck circumference, and the small sparkling beads add a sense of hierarchy to the necklace, and when you look down, you can see the fine luster at the collarbone. Practical tips in the beads
Bling Pearl surface is afraid of scratching, avoid direct contact with hard metal accessories;
