How to do it yourself?
It is quite possible to make original accessories with the name on your own. There are several interesting ways to create a personalized bracelet. Let's consider one of them.
You will need:
- Beads and bugles. The amount of material will depend on the length of the item. For example, for an accessory of medium length, you need to prepare fifty black beads, a small package of small pink beads, as well as 100 light blue or blue beads.
- Prepare quality line. If you want to speed up the process, it is recommended to purchase special beading needles.
- Prepare scissors and a small box in which you will place the beads.
- Stock up on sewing hooks.
Before you start making the bracelet, make sure that your workplace is well lit. Protect the table so that the beads do not roll off the surface and fall on the floor.
Arrange the beads in a separate box. Cut the line and, following the pattern, create the first row using both ends.
Continue weaving in the mosaic pattern for a few more rows (4-5). But be very careful. Try not to be mistaken in the front ranks, as they will play a major role in creating a correct and beautiful name.
You may well use bugles. One such detail replaces two beads in size. Glass beads can save you a lot of time. Do not worry about the appearance of the product, as beads of different sizes will make it more sophisticated and original. The top of the bracelet should look like this.
When you're done with the first row (according to your wrist size), secure the line and add the blue beads with a new piece of line.
Thread the line into the outermost row of blue and guide along, adding beads. This should be done every two beads in the woven section.
The second and other rows need to be woven based on the first. Use both ends of the line.
Another method can be used: for example, blue beads need to be woven together in different directions. Then put two beads on one end on the side, and put on a pair of beads from the braided section on the nearest end of the fishing line. And again we pass the pairs of the following beads. The whole bracelet will be woven in this way.
In these schemes, gray circles indicate the locations of the letters, and black - additional beads that need to be woven to the very end.
After weaving the name, you need to sew a couple of hooks.
