What do we need?

The first step is to set a framework for future curtains, because the beads loves correct score. Ideally, it is better to come up from the ground, but if the ideas or experience yet, it is easier to find a suitable option in the network. Luxuriously look curtains, weaving a single fabric of the settlement scheme for embroidery. They get very dense and well retain the light, but the work is very tedious. It is much easier to make a patterned series of loosely hanging threads.

If the scheme is less than, it does not matter - some of its elements can simply repeat or add rows of symmetrical side of the main color.

Also prepare for work:

• fishing line (can be replaced by thin colored cords);
• metal rings;
• pliers and metal wire braid without;
• sharp scissors or clippers.

If the scheme presupposes the existence of other decorative elements, they also included in the calculation of materials.

Then one by one on a thread strung beads strict accordance with the diagram. When all the "garland" is ready, it will be mounted on the end of another ring.

In this procedure dials the next series of muslin. After that, each one can make hooks from wire, cutting it into equal pieces and bending pliers. There are other options for the assembly of curtains: strung on twine, sew the ribbon inelastic tissue.

3. On the availability of line halves wear beads on one, lower, both to the lower fixing grains.
4. Fourth bead strung, like the first - at once on the two strands. So it drags the entire series until the end.
5. The finished strip is a central bead is fixed again, and the remaining tails of the fishing line tied in a knot, after which it is attached a metal ring-holder.

There are other schemes solid and even surround netting - they can be master over time. But in order to achieve the desired effect, already at the beginning should know some of the nuances of fine hand-made:

• embroidery schemes, which are usually taken as the basis for solid curtains have to adapt a little bit diagonal weaving. And it's better for them again redraw colored pencils, because an error in the calculation first to be invisible, and drawing spoiled.
• Use for high-quality beads of the same grain size, so that the eye does not rushed distortions and bald spots on the canvas.
• Work on a flat surface and make sure that the finished site is not crawled over the edge, for example, if you weaves the table. At any moment he might outweigh, and the thread slips out of the hands, were spread on the floor.
