Beading Ideas 

Here are 5 Beading Ideas to help get you started.

1: Find a piece of fabric that has an interesting pattern on it. Pin a piece of polyester Batting to the back of the fabric. Now bead around the pattern, following the lines and just play.

2: Buy some stretchy beading elastic (Stretch Magic)and bead a bracelet for yourself. To start with, choose the colours and sizes of beads you want. ( best to have a variety) and thread them on one after the other till your bracelet is the right size. Tie it off then put a drop of superglue on the knot to keep it tight.

3: Use some seed beads or other small beads as decoration on homemade cards, bookmarks or scrapbook pages

4: Make a key chain.

5: Make a bracelet as above but use alphabet charms in ti to spell out your name or give as a gift to a firend with their name on it.
