Weave a bead necklace for your wonderful mom as a gift on the Mother's
Day. To make a necklace of beads first of all choose a dress that is
your mother's favorite. Make a note of the color combination of the
dress. Buy beads of matching colors and soft flex wire to string the
beads. Cut the string as per measurement (approximately 20 inches)
keeping about 5 inches of excess wire for fitting the clasp.
It is wiser to choose a repeating pattern so that you can clasp one end
of the string securely before you proceed with stringing the necklace
without worrying about the symmetry. In case you want your necklace to
be symmetrical then you need to put the middle bead and then proceed on
with stringing outwards making it certain that each side is the same. In
that case, you need to be careful about the beads falling off from both
the sides.
After you finish stringing the beads according to the pattern you have
in your mind, add clasp. On one end, slide a crimp bead and one part of
the clasp onto the tigertail. After sliding the tigertail back through
the crimp bead, pull it tight. Flatten the crimp bead to secure it. Trim
excess wire if any. On the other side, attach the rest of the clasp.
Make sure the stringing is snug to avoid any slag in the string.
Gift a colored beaded necklace to your mother this Mother's Day and
make her the proudest mom that ever lived.
