Sort all the beads on to a tray. If you don't have a beading mat use a towel. |
Measure out beading thread 4 times the length requied. Knot and put a safety pin at knot. (Vital piece of equipment in my books!) |
Thread a few beads, about half dozen or so, add Knot Cover (Calotte) and seed bead |
Go round the seed bead and through the Knot Cover and journey back through the beads to the safety pin pulling the thread taught but not too tightly - easy once you get the hang of it! |
continue adding the rest of the beads the add the Knot Cover and seed bead and repeat the above going the other way back to the safety pin |
Remove the safety pin and knot the ends. Re-thread the ends on the needle and thread through a few beads then snip ends. Do Not snip ends near the knot |
Go to the Knot Covers |
with a pair of pliers gently close over the seed bead |
Attach the Knot Covers to the clasps |
