Hello to all fellow #jewelry community lovers. I hope you're comfortably doing well with your family and business. I want to remind you that yesterday 21st July 2023 marks my second year with Hive. That's why I'm celebrating two years' birthdays with Hive by making a tendril which I gifted my aunty. I almost made this post yesterday but my laptop had a few issues which I just fixed this early morning.
Materials that I used for the making of the tendril will be mentioned below:
1mm Wire.
40 pieces of red fan blade beads while 20 pieces will be used to make one side of the tendril.
16 pieces of red pearl bead while 8 parts will be used to make one side of the tendril.
6 pieces of electric wire holder bead while 3 parts will be used to make one side of the tendril.
Plier.
Procedures that I used for the making of the tendril will be discussed below to help assist with the making by anyone:
To tell you, I gather the materials that I want to use to make the tendril in one particular place. This is to always fasten my work by making the selection of beads and other materials easier.
I have to cut a wire from its row using a plier and then insert 10 pieces of red fan blade beads into it. After the insertion of the beads, I have to bend the two-sided wire close to the 10 pieces of red fan bead inserted.
Now, I have to cut another wire from its row. After that, I have to use one side of the wire to form a rounded shape like needle eyes.
Now, I have to insert the wire from the side that has needle eyes to the wire and I inserted 10 pieces of red fan blade bead.
From the new wire inserted, I have to insert, 1 red pearl bead, 1 electric wire holder bead, and 1 red pearl bead. I have to bend to wire to the left and insert 1 red pearl bead, 1 electric wire holder bead, and 1 red pearl bead. Now I have to bend the same wire up, from there, I have to insert 1 red pearl bead, 1 electric wire holder bead, and 1 red pearl bead. Now I have to bend the wire to hold the other wire I inserted with 10 pieces of red fan blade bead.
Now from the first wire, I inserted 10 pieces of red fan blade bead. You know I already bent it and from the left bending, I inserted 1 piece of red pearl bead and 5 pieces of red fan blade bead. After the 5 pieces, I have to cut a wire and form an earring hook whose eyes are like a head of a needle I now inserted the earring hook I formed close to the 5 pieces of red fan blade bead and inserted another 5 pieces of red fan blade bead.
Finally, I have to join the first wire inserted with 10 pieces of red fan blade bead with the new fan blade bead wire.
