Hi lovelies! here's a simple project i think you'll love! its so versatile & wonderfully sparkly!! you will need:
seed beads{i use silver lined larger ones}
craft wire{make sure the beads can fit on it & also that its sturdy enough to hold the beads in shape}
pliers{i used round nose pliers & regular ones with a wire cutter}
cut a length of wire about 35cm{or as long as your letter will end up}
make a loop at one end, & bend it so its on a right angle with the rest of the wire
thread the beads onto the other end that has no loop
once all the wire is filled with beads, make another loop & turn it to a right angle so it holds the beads securely in place
bend the letter into shape{if you have a letter that needs two pieces of wire to create, thats no problem, just bead the first one, start beading the second, then around the middle point, twist the wires together & continue beading, otherwise you could make a shape such as a heart instead}
these would be perfect to add to a present{as shown above}
or as a keepsake initial in a table setting
loveliest wishes!!!
