I am so excited to share this tutorial with all of you. I have been dying to have a beaded garland for months now. Living on a budget I could not bring myself to spend what I was finding them for. So when I stumbled across a tutorial on fearfullymadecreations Instagram and I knew I wanted to feature it. I was so happy when she said yes! You guy need to go check out her Etsy store too! She makes the cutest signs and rugs you will not be disappointed- https://www.etsy.com/shop/fearfullymadeco
So let’s dive on in.
Materials:
Scissors
5mm Wooden Beads [I linked a 50 pack at Amazon because I know I want to make more than one]
Twine
Step One: This is the start of the tassels on the end. You want to take the twine and wrap it around your palm at least 10 times. You can do more if you would like a fuller look. You will need to make two.
Step Two: Cut an extra strand of twine to wrap around the top of your tassel (you will need two). Grab the twine you wrapped around your palm and fold it in half giving yourself a loop on the top and bottom. Take your extra strand of twine and wrap it around the top making sure to leave yourself a loop at the top. I trimmed my tassels so they would be even once I was done.
Step Three: Cut a piece of twine the length you would like your garland to be. Take that piece and feed it through the top loop and knot it off at the base with as little string as possible. Take your beads and string them down the twine until your garland is the length you want. Be sure to leave length at the end of your strand to tie off the second tassel.
Step Four: Take your second tassel and string the excess from your garland and knot it off as close to the top of the tassel as you can. You do not want to leave excess room between the beads on the garland.
Step Five: ENJOY!!
