ayabah: I was on this thread before my phone got spoiled but am back on my feet nw. Weldone all our lecturers,u are blessing us and God almighty will repay u. Pls I saw improvise for brooch I also tried it and I will like to share with us for some dat may nt know. Is a plain earing with pendant and after beading on it,it look like dis.

Umutops:
thanks alot i really appreciate dat





I hope dis will help. Dat if u read carefully ooo
We start now. For this class, I'll
be using size for champagne gold beads as d
bigger beads and purple sand beads as d smaller
beads (main body of d work)
STEP 1:- cut out a considerable amount of fishing
line. Pass three of d bigger beads into it. Pass a
fourth one and use it to interlock.
STEP 2:- seperate the 2 lines. In one pass 5- 7
beads depending on the size u want. I'll be
passing 7 sand beads. And in d other pass
between 6 to 8 beads. Also depending on the size
u're using. And I'll be passing 8 beads. The line
with d smaller amount of beads will form d bottom
part of d design and d line the greater amount of
beads will drop and form the bottom part of d
design.
STEP 3:- pass one of the bigger beads and use it to
interlock the two wires. Make sure u pull tightly so
its firm.
STEP 4:- add one bead each to each line and use a
third one to interlock. Continue in this hpattern till
u have reach the appropriate neck size that u
want.
LAYER 2. The line with d smaller amount
of beads will form d upper part of d design and not d
bottom. If u're using 5 beads on one line, d other
line should hv 6 beads and so on. It should be an
increment of 1



LEVEL 2:-
This level is much more complicated. Really hope I
can get the house to understand it. There are 2 ways
to do this. 1) the straight look (prefer to use this for
bracelet ) and 2) d curved look. For d straight look,
STEP 1:- when u get to the right size of d neck/ wrist
u want, u have to move on to the next line. You'll
notice that there are 2 lines. One pointing up and d
other down. For the line down, pass it tru the next
bead and stop. For the line UP, pass it tru the next 2
beads in a clockwise fashion and finally tru d bead
where u passed d Down line and pull tightly
STEP 2:- now u'll notice d 2 lines side by side with a
bead in d middle on top. So we count that bead as 1.
Now add 3 of d bigger beads to the line on d left,
using d 3rd bead to interlock
STEP 3:- to d line on top, add 6 of d smaller beads
(that's if u used 5 on the 1st one). Increase d bead
on d top and bottom by adding one extra to the
number u used in level one. So my level 2 top will be
8 and my bottom 9. Use one the bigger beads to
interloc
STEP 4:- after interlocking, u'll notice one line going
up and d other down and u'll also notice a big 'UP'
beside the line going up. Pass that line tru that
bead.
STEP 5:- to the line going down, add 2 of the bigger
beads, using d last of d 2 to interlock.
Repeat STEPS 3 - 5 till u get to the end and continue
till u've reached d desired length. The curved look
and pics coming soon

phunmykay: Repeat step 2 n 3 to ur desired length

phunmykay: Hu everyone n how has been our day?I hope we are ready for my nameless design but if anybody has a name for it,suggestions are welcom.
Materials need for d design are
1.Fishin line
2. Sand beads and size 6 crystal
Or any 2 diff sizes n colour beads.
If u are ready I am ready tooo
