Beaded Alphabets || Let's Make 'B'

avatar

Hello there, welcome back to our little adventure of creating beaded alphabets. If you missed the beaded letter 'S and A', you can simply check them here and here. In this adventure, who says we can't explore different sizes of beads? If that is so, unlike in the previous beaded letters, I chose seed beads this time around to create the letter B, and oh my gosh! I love the outcome. It happens to give me a perfect size that my son would be able to hold very easily, and aside from that, it won't take up much space in the storage.

So, come along while I walk you through the step-by-step process. 😊

Step by step process

Step 1:

I cut a fishline of 10 cm, put 4 beads on the line, and then crossed both sides with the fourth bead.

Step 2:

I put 1 bead to the left, 1 bead to the right, and 1 bead to cross both lines. I continued this process until I got 6 rings of beads, as shown below.

Step 21:

I put 1 bead to the left and 1 bead to the right, then crossed both lines with the first bead when you count from downwards, as marked in the image below. I proceeded to tie the knots and trim off the excess fishline, and we had our half part of the B.

Step 22: Repeat steps 1-21 to make the other half of the B.

Step 23:

I brought the two halves of the B together, cut a new fishline, put 1 bead, and used it to join the two half parts. I continued the process until it went around, and we had our B.

Whenever I finish my work, I like to take some photos of it outside for clearer pictures, but it has been raining over here since yesterday, which made the outside very dull; below are some of my outside photos, regardless of the rain and I hope that you enjoy them.😊

All these "I put 2 beads to the left, 1 bead to the right..." this is like magic to me 🤣🤣🤣 But I love the outcome. I glanced through the one you did letter S and it's so beautiful. Hope Adeize loves it. I wish I could learn how to do things like this. I had the opportunity to learn for free years back when I was doing my NCE but didn't put interest into it.
Shouldn't I be making money on Hive with it now? 🥲

Hahaha, Adeiza love them o, once I'm done with a letter, he won't stop holding them in his hands🤣

It's not hard at all if you can put your mind to it and follow the steps.

I learned this during my NYSc, I don't even know why I haven't been posting about it on hive all this while lol 😂

Hehe, yes o. Thank you very much, Sis. Some beadwork can be painful at hand, but this one is actually not painful at all.
