Beading question - ideas for one-sided glitter, one-sided plain beads, please!?
I have some one-sided glitter, one-sided plain beads I bought a couple of years ago and I just cannot get my head round how to use them!
(Some background: I have been beading for three years now and consider myself very competent, it's just this, plus the subject of the other question I am going to post directly after posting this one, that I have a problem with!)
One-sided glitter, one-sided plain beads - OK, whether you string them for a necklace or put them onto head pins for earrings/pendants, how do you get the so-and-so's to lie facing the same way? or in whatever pattern you have chosen? I can see doing a folded crimp really close to them on either side may work but I think that might look a little messy. Anyone got any ideas? They are really pretty beads and I would love to use them.
Many thanks for any help!
these would make adorable earrings on head pins, maybe try this. set one bead on, glitter side showing, and put a small dot of craft glue on the top of the bead. then slowly slide down another bead, this bead showing the plain side and push it onto the glue on the other bead! then do a dot of glue again, and do the glitter side showing. another dot of glue, do the plain side showing. so basically, you glue down each bead to show every-other glitter side. you can keep doing this however many times you want depending on the size of the beads. i think these would make just adorable earrings! the beads sound way adorable and unique!
happy beading!
