How To Make A Netting Beaded Necklace




     Few months ago I have been trying to work on this design and yes...it came out lovely. So I decided to make it easy for you by telling you the steps to create this.

I'm sure you have been wondering why I always use crystal beads in my designs. I will tell you...this is because crystals always glitter and make my work brighter, glitter and lovely.

Materials  Required Include:
1. Seed Bead (10/0 size 2)
2. Crystal Bead (4mm or Size 4)
3. Flat Nose Plier
4. Beading Thread 0.25 or 0.30mm
5. Beading Needle
6. Hook or clasp

One of the things you should consider here is the choice of your beads because it can either make or mar your design. You can decide to make use of seed beads throughout depending on your preference.

Step by step Procedure
1. Cut a desired length of the thread and insert your needle.

2. Drop 3 SB 1 CB 3 SB 1 CB  3B and interlock/ cross with 1 SB.




3. Drop 3 SB1 CB 1 SB and pass  the needle into the CB you just dropped.




4. Drop 3 SB 1 CB 3 SB and pass into the last CB underneath.




5. Drop 3 SB 1 CB 3 SB and pass the needle into the the crystal that is in the middle.


6. Repeat step three.

7. Repeat step four.




NOTE: Anytime the needle is in the crystal bead at the top, you will always pass to the CB at the bottom ,if  the thread is in the middle CB you will pass to the top crystal and if its at the bottom or the last CB at the end you will continue to pass to the middle CB.

Continue to drop 3SB 1 CB  3 SB for both the middle and the bottom while you continue to drop 3 SB 1 CB 1 SB for the top crystal bead until you get to your desired length.

It will be in this form and continue till you get to your length.


7. Attach your hook or clasp to your design.

Happy Beading. I hope this post is helpful.
