As requested, I made a beaded star tutorial :)

Always remember to tie your work and weave in the ends. Cutting too close to a knot can lead to the knot eventually coming undone. If you like, put a tiny dab of glue on the knot to further secure it a bit better.

Tips:

1) Use thread the same color as your beads, or the same color as the vast majority of them.

2) Use size 10 or smaller seed beads, I used size E for the purpose of clarity in this tutorial.

3) Depending on the size of seed bead you choose, adjust the number of re-enforcement rounds you add - the hole of the bead is only so big, a smaller bead means less enforcement rounds.

4) Despite looking uniform, a single packet of seed beads can have many different shapes and variations of the same bead (a tiny bit taller, wider, bigger hole, smaller height) Choose beads of a similar shape to ensure a good outcome.

5) Just have fun~!!!

And as mentioned on the bottom, do not redistribute this tutorial for money in any way shape or form, if used on your site you must give proper credit and a link back to the original tutorial. Items made with the use of this tutorial are free to sell.

Thank you to all of you who have added this tutorial to your Favourites and/or just taken the time to have a look :)

I can't say how awesome this little pattern is! :heart:
This was the first beading thing I did, just a couple simple ones with thread. I just recently picked up beading again (Never really been to good at it! XD) So I just picked up some thin wire, and spent about 2 hours making a little necklace charm thing! :la: The beads were too small, so it's... tiny, as I stated before. I hope to make more of these, because they're really cool and fun to make! Thanks for sharing! :hug:

I'm always finding new ways to use the little star myself. It's easy to do so as not to discourage new beaders, and teaches a little bit of the basics as well. If my camera wasn't dead, I'd remake it with clearer pictures and more tips and options :)

I'm glad you're having fun with it~!!! You may want to try the beaded cupcake tutorial too. Whenever I'm bored I usually mess around and make different cupcakes, even made a tinier one with all size 15 seed beads -- calling it the micro cupcake : P
