▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
You will need:
• (38) 4mm bicone beads
• Two beading needles
• Beading thread, I am using Nymo thread
• A jump ring
• A chain necklace
• Two pairs of pliers
• A pair of scissors
• Ruler
• Clear nail polish or some clear glue
• Optional: beading mat
Instructions:
1.) Cut a 3 foot length of beading thread. Thread each end of the thread with a beading needle.
2.) String on 4 beads and center them on the thread. Slide the right needle through the left side of the furthest bead to the left and pull tight. You will have formed a tiny cross.
3.) String on 2 beads on the right side and 1 bead on the left side. Slide the left needle through the top of the top bead on the right side and pull. Tie an overhand knot.
4.) Work on the right side first. String on 4 beads and slide the needle down through the top right bead.
5.) String on 2 more beads and slide the needle up through the first and last beads in the last step. Note: you must slide the needle on the right side of the last bead and the left side of the first bead. Carefully watch the video to see what I am talking about.
6.) Repeat steps 4 and 5 for left side.
7.) Now take the left thread and slide it through the outside beads around the heart. Do the same for the right side. When the two ends meet again in the middle, tie an overhand knot. Hide the ends by running them through a couple beads and then cutting the excess string.
8.) Repeat steps 1 to 7 for another heart. Do not cut the excess string in step seven-we need that to connect the hearts!
9.) Set one of the hearts on top of the other heart. Open the jump ring. Attach the jump ring in the center of the heart and carefully close it.
10.) Taking one of the left over strings from the last heart you made, stitch the two hearts together by crisscrossing the beads on the outside. Once you reach the center again, tie the two strands together and hide the ends by threading them through a few beads.
11.) Apply a touch of nail polish or glue to the knots. Let dry and then cut any excess.
12.) Attach your heart pendant to a chain necklace.

Is there a different way to end it off? It doesn't have much of a heart shape in the end..... Looks more like a guitar pick! lol I don't think I am doing it right! lol

Nice oh My Poop...

[@choupiinebleu7739]

I do not speak English damage

[@bextermonkey246]

the music in the background is so annoying! The instructions are professional and concise, but that maudlin moaning is a distraction. Could you please do it again with a less intrusive soundtrack?

[@CatFoxDesigns]

Aww, I'm so sorry. Yes, I was hoping to redo my video anyhow. If you would like, you can subscribe to my channel so you can be notified when I make a new video!
