How To Make A Simple Zigzag Design For Beginners


 This design can be used either as a bracelet or a necklace. Here, I will be giving you tips on how to make this simple design which won't take much of your time if you really know what you are doing.

Materials Include
1. Fishing line 0.30mm or 0.35mm
2. Crystal Beads 6mm or 8mm
3. Seed bead 3mm
4. Hooks or jump rings.

The first thing you are to do is to cut a desired length of fishing line. After that, drop 1 CB( or crystal Beads) on the left side and also drop 5 SB or seed bead on the right side and use 1 CB to interlock.
     To add to what I just said, make sure that wherever you drop SB for the last method,the next one is to drop CB to start with and vice versa. Likewise, wherever you interlock with CB you are to interlock for the next one with SB and vice versa. All you should continue to drop is 1 CB and 5 SB. Repeat the procedure over and over again till you get to your desired length. Then, add your hooks to complete it all.

Here, in this post i will be showing you how to attach your clasp before you begin your beads.          There is an important tool in bead making that is needed here, it is used to crimp or flatten the stopper.
