Supplies needed for the acrylic beaded curtain

How to make the beaded curtain?

Step 1: Make the central owl pendant bunch

1st, cut a 34cm piece of cord;
2nd, attach the owl pendant to 1/3 location of cord by using a Lark’s Head Knot;
3rd, loop the cord by tying an Overhand Knot;
4th, tie another 3 Overhand Knots about 2cm away from the owl pendant. Then, string one largest (24cm) blue acrylic bead;
5th, tie the same Overhand Knots 2cm away the blue pendant and then string one smaller (20cm) bead;
6th, glue the selected rhinestone bead into the owl pendant cabochon setting. Now, you’ve finished the central bunch.

Step 2: Make the rest beads bunches in varying lengths

1st, cut a 68cm piece of cord;
2nd, string one purple and one black on two ends of cord. Secure by tying two Overhand Knots;
3rd, tie 3 Overhand Knots to secure the large-sized flower bead upon the two small-sized ones;

add three trumpets on the cord

4th, in the following work, you’ll just need to repeat tying Overhand Knots to stop right beads in proper place. In my beads curtain design, I made five couples of beaded bunches extra and the lengths of needed cords are: 68cm, 76cm, 84cm, 92cm and 100cm.
