Seed Beads Christmas Ornaments with PRECIOSA Twin™

Step 2

Proceed according to figure no. 4 when making the second type of ornament. First string half the internal curve, add a rocaille to the tip and close the drop with the same stringing in the opposite order. Pass the line through the 1^st R7 and add the outer sections of the curves, tighten well and pass the line through the 1^st R7 once again. String the seed beads from the internal central curve and the basis of the second lace drop. Leave this part of the stringing a bit looser: it is not necessary to tighten it straight away. The looser stringing will be of benefit when bending the stringing onto the curves of the ornament and when adding further material. Add the outer edge of the drop, the second internal central curve and both outer curves according to the red line (figure no. 5). Tie the ends of the lines in a firm double knot, pull the line back into the holes of the neighbouring seed beads and cut.
