ÐTulipÑ Necklace

Materials needed:

1 oz of red seed beads, size 11

2 oz of green seed beads, size 11

12 yellow seed beads, size 11

Flexible metal wire (~1mm in

diameter) about 20Ñ long.

Estimated Time:

20-30 hours depending on your

experience.

Making a flower:

1. Thread the needle, but donÓt cut it

from the spindle.

2. Start from the center of the petal,

threading through 33 beads.

3. Continue beading according to the

diagram. Numbers 4, 6, 8 and 9

correspond to the previous picture.

4. When you are done with half of the

petal, return to the start of the thread, cut

off a long piece of it and continue with

the other half of the petal using the same

diagram.

Connecting petals into a flower:

Connect three petals according to the

Diagram, looping several times for

durability (see pic. 1). You will have

two Ðhalf-flowersÑ. Insert one into

another and connect beads of the

bottom rows of each Ðhalf-flowerÑ

together.

Making a stem:

Start by threading through 6 beads.

Bring the needle through the 1st bead

a second time to create a circle.

The second row consists of 3 beads:

String a first bead and bring the needle

through the 3rd bead in row 1.

String a second bead and bring the needle through the 5th bead in row 1.

String a third bead and bring the needle through the 1st bead in row 1 and the first bead in row 2.

That completes the second row.

The third row and all consequent rows will consist of 3 beads as well.

String a first bead and bring the needle through the 2nd bead in row 2.

String a second bead and bring the needle through the 3rd bead in row 2.

String a third bead and bring the needle through the 1st bead in row 2 and the first bead in row 3.

That completes the third row. Continue beading following the same pattern until you reach the

desired length (approximately 20Ñ).

For the last row use three yellow seed beads. They will become part of the pistil.

When stem is ready, insert a flexible metal wire approximately 1mm in diameter. Gather 3 bottom

beads together and tie them up to close the opening on one end and make a pistil on another end as

shown on the picture below.

Making a pistil:

Gather 3 top yellow beads together (they are

gray on my picture) and tie them up just like

you did on the bottom of the stem. To each

of those 3 beads add three other yellow

beads as shown on the picture to thicken the

end.

Attaching flower to the stem:

After you are done with a pistil, you will

need to create a bulge about 1-1,5Ñ below it,

which will help to attach the flower.

First row of the bulge:

Start by threading through the first bead on

the selected row of the stem, string 3 more

beads and bring the needle through the

second bead, string 3 more beads, and bring

the needle through the third bead, string 3

beads and bring the needle through the 1 st

bead and through the first 3 beads of the

bulge (pic.1).

Second row of the bulge:

Now string 2 beads and bring the needle

through the second 3 beads of the first row

of the bulge, string 2 beads and bring the

needle through the third 3

beads of the first row, string 2 beads and bring the needle through the first two(!) beads of the

second row. This completes the second row (pic.2)

Third row of the bulge:

String 3 beads and bring the needle through the first 2 beads of the second row.

String 3 beads and bring the needle through the middle bead of the second 3 beads of the first row.

String 3 beads and bring the needle through the second 2 beads of the second row.

String 3 beads and bring the needle through the middle bead of the third 3 beads of the first row.

String 3 beads and bring the needle through the third 2 beads of the second row.

String 3 beads and bring the needle through the middle bead of the first 3 beads of the first row.

This complete the row 3 (pic.3)

After you are done with the bulge, insert the stem into the opening in the flower, so that the bulge

will be inside of the flower and make another bulge right below the flower (see picture above).
