Zigzag beaded necklace or bracelet



This design is very easy to learn and different bead shapes and designs can be used. It is better to use the same size pearl or rounds for the bracelet and 2 different sizes for the necklace.

For this tutorial, I will be using 8mm and 6 mm rondelles with 11/o seed beads.

Let's begin:
Materials
1. 8mm Rondelles
2. 6mm Rondelles
3. 0.3mm beading thread
4. 1 beading needle

Step 1: Cut about two arms span or any length of beading thread that you are comfortable working with and thread unto a needle. Add a stop bead, leaving some tail to attach your clasp

Step2: Pick 1Sb+1 6mm+1SB+1 6mm+1SB+1 8mm.  Slide down the thread


Step3: Pass your needle back through the 1Sb+1, 6mm+1SB+1 6mm added in step 2
Pull and you should have something like this:


Step4: Pick 1Sb+1 6mm+1SB+1 6mm+1SB


 Step5: Pass needle back through the 2nd 6mm from step2 + the 1st SB and 6mm added in step 4

 Pull tout and you should have this:

 Step6: Pick 1Sb+1 6mm+1SB+1 8mm+1SB and slide them down

                  


 Step7: Repeat step5 i.e pass needle back through the 2nd 6mm from step4 + the 1st SB and 6mm added in step 6



Continue to repeat steps 4 to 7 till you get to your desired length





I made this with just one rondelle size. 

And this with 8mm pearl in two different colours


Happy beading :)

    And the lower the neckline, the shorter and rounder the necklace should be. Necklaces according to your bust necklace sizes.
