Feb. 25th, 2008 @ 10:32 pm [sticky post] Welcome

Welcome everybody. First thing first, please read the rules in community info.

My objective is to teach everybody who is interesting in beading to be able to bead. I know I may not be an expert but I love to share what I can do.

This is not selling community. This is not advertising community. There are other places for that.

I'm an easy person and I don't bite. Everything here is flexible. Feel free to ask questions if you're not sure about anything here.

Finally, I hope this community will be lively someday.

PS. About the thread, most of my tutorials with crossweaving technique used fishing nylon thread, something similar to Beadalon Supplemax (0.25mm/8lb). You can hand weave it without needle. But if you are not familiar with it, just use fireline or your favorite thread with two needles on both ends. Or you can use Right Angle Weave if you don't like to crossweave. Just exit your needle at the bead where the threads cross and keep good tension.

Mar. 26th, 2012 @ 10:21 am Beaded lanyard with only beads and cord
Hi everybody!
I want to make this beaded lanyard, but i dont't know how to begin and end the knots. The lanyard is so strong due to the way the maker tied the knots. I notice she used double strands to knot the cord. Does anybody know how to make it? Many thanks!

Dec. 21st, 2011 @ 04:39 pm Looking for lucite flower patterns
Hello everybody!

I have been lurking on this community for sometime now and I recently visited a bead shop and saw these uber cute flower beads called Lucite (acrylic). These are the flowers I'm talking about!
On display in the shop they had adorable earrings and bracelets but they weren't on sale sadly, and they didn't have to purchase patters.  So my question is to you guys..

Does anybody have any jewelry patterns they can share for these type of acrylic flowers? I'd very much like to see some patterns!

Thank you muchly! <3
