Bead Embellishment Tutorial 

Decorating a headband with beads is so much fun, and with a little bit of work, you can make yourself a  unique headband for yourself or that special someone. I have tons of beads, and choosing the beads is a  lot of fun. There are many different kinds of beads, big holed beads, medium holed beads, and small  holed beads.  

 If you would like to have a tutorial with all photos included, purchase it at RAVELRY.

 You can use  embroidery floss, or fine or sport weight yarn to sew the medium holed beads on to your crocheted  items. 

When using wooden beads with a Large hole. You can use Chunky yarn to sew or just a worsted  weight yarn to sew on to your crocheted items.  

Supply list 

36” piece of Beading wire 

Wire cutters  

Beads of choice 

Matching sewing thread and needle  

Small piece of matching felt  

Hot glue or glue of choice 

I want to inspire you  to think outside the box. You can add crystal sew on cabochons, crystal and rhinestone buttons.

Play around with your beads, and make a choice.

You can use beading wire to run through small holed beads. Leave a 6” tail at the top. 

Bend the long end of wire up toward the top, fussing with your beads to keep them strait, not  letting the round beads fold to the back.
Crimp the wire to form around the bead at the top and bottom Pull your 6” piece of leftover wire down and crimp the wire to mold around the top and bottom  bead, this will help hold your beads in place. 

Gently twist your wires together, being careful not to twist it too hard, so that the bead stay in  place. 

 Cut the excess wire off with wire cutters.  Push the ends down.  

 Cut a small piece of felt. Trim the piece of felt to barely cover the wires.  Glue the felt strip in place over the wires. Place a small dab of glue on the wires in the crimped  area between the large and small bead. Do this on the top bead and bottom bead.

Place your beads on your headband where you would like them. 

Using needle and sewing thread, proceed to SECURELY sew your beads to the headband at the  top and the bottom, where the small bead meets the large bead. You can also go underneath and catch  the felt with your needle and thread a few times, but it isn’t necessary.

I really enjoyed watching my daughters wear these headband earwarmers. They loved the matching Boot Cuffs as well. The whole combination was so much for them to wear and so much fun for me to crochet.

If you like this headband you may also like this Houndstooth Check Earwarmer. The color possibilities are endless.
